Apicius...the first Bobby Flay
September 28th 2011 03:43
My next couple posts will be dedicated to the original cookbook De re coquinaria, written by Apicius. Through multiple Latin translations and many burnt, bland and just outright disgusting dishes I have discovered 20 recipes that can be made possible in the modern kitchen. Of course the wombs and bellys that were used in most of the dishes had to be replaced and ostriches are hard to come by in Delaware so those had to be axed also. But overall the Romans knew how to cook and now I realize why most of them were fat and why they made so many excuses to have feasts every night of the week.
