Bread, but make it really shitty and mealy.
Elijah Carter
I try that with 100% whole grain sourdough, but it's never shitty enough. How can I make it more authentic?

Not ancient, but neat.

What about medieval cookery? A while ago someone posted a book of almond milk recipes from the middle ages, but I haven't been able to find it again.
Daniel Bennett
I imagine Garum while being nutrient, would smell like rotting fish. I was wondering if Indochinese fish sauce could be used as a substitute for Garum? Not that i'll eat an entire sheep though.
John Peterson
There's a village somewhere in Italy that sells garam that's pretty identical to the ancient recipe.

Throw in some sand like the Egyptians did. Good for your teeth :^)

CHICKEN SOUR PULLUM OXYZOMUM
A GOOD-SIZED GLASS OF OIL, A SMALLER GLASS OF GARUM, AND THE SMALLEST MEASURE OF VINEGAR, 6 SCRUPLES OF PEPPER, PARSLEY AND A BUNCH OF LEEKS.

Anyone have youtube channels of people cooking old ass recipes?
Kevin Gray
Fucking good idea for a thread user.
Jason Kelly
What a fucking dumb idea
Wyatt Perez
I use Garum in some recipes, especially in recipes with meat, in the form of Oenogarum, with clear Thai fishsauce as a Garum replacement and sweet white Sherry as replacement for the Straw-wine.

Ful Medames may be the oldest recipe in existence. Basically just mashed beans with oil, lemonjuice and spices, eaten with bread. Dynastic Egyptian.
Oliver Watson
There were probably different versions as it was made all over the empire with different fish and techniques. They sometimes used to ferment fish blood as well, which is not the case with SE Asian sauces. There is one antique description which says the good qualities are translucent golden, so some people assume the Thai clear fishsauces come close to some types of Roman Garum.

I fucking love this channel I want to try making the mushroom ketchup with the leftover dried mushroom flakes

Ash cake recipe. This is from a 18th century cooking channel, but it's literally a fireplace, water and flour, I guess this is actually prehistoric.
