I enjoy watching a few channels on Youtube where the presenter recreates and tries recipes from history. Since we can't travel in time, this seems to be about as close as can get to experience the past.
One of the shows involved the presenter making home-made garum, a fish sauce loved by Romans in the same way that Americans love ketchup. His approach involved leaving rotting fish in a jar for a few weeks, but he pointed out that you can order garum online.
So, I did.
Now, what to do with it?
So, I got this book.
This book contains recipes from ancient Rome, ancient Greece, and ancient Babylon, and from the European Middle Ages and the Renaissance. I haven't tried any of the recipes, but some of them look like things that I could cook and might enjoy.
