Feeding the Army of Roman Britain

Silphium was an important plot point in an italian horror tv series in the '90s. It scared the ** out if me when i was a kid, then i watched it again recently, and it still scares me.

Cool channel sir, just bought your book and your videos are so entertaining!

Wow, I love to add barley to my soups, especially if I don't have any rice at the moment.

mAX: Your facial expression with your BIG expressive, eyes are so fabulous. I can always tell in a second or two from those BIG eyes if you like something or not. Fabulous show! thank your parents for the big expressive eyes.

AH...HADRIANS....MY NEIGHBORS WERE HADRIANS...THEY MOVED. THEY WERE TOO NOISY FOR THE NEIGHBORHOOD!

The French Kings sent their cooks to Italy to learn to cook.

The first time I saw pork chops with apple sauce I thought it was not so good combo. And then I tried it! Now I do my best Humphrey Bogart impression when I say I'm going to cook it! Give me a like if you know the reference. I just want to know I'm not the oldest guy.

This is possibly the most modern seeming roman recipe. Honestly sounds really good.

Looks like something I'd make anyway - minus the garum and fetid-ass.😂

Pork and apples-still a great combo today. My mom always served pork chops with applesauce. The flavors just complement each other perfectly

Great video and your research is fantastic, congrats 🎉

Emotionally manipulative but relatable...I love him...😆

Lucco didn't realize how his name would be historical by just tending to some pigs

Lamb for meat balls I meant in case I was not clear enough.

Max, I bought your book. Nicely done young man. As for this recipe. I have bought the spice, the Garum, the posca, and long black pepper corn.

One simple question... Is ground lamb an acceptable substitution for pork or beef?

Since Hadrian's Wall had – I presume – local indigenous sources of meat... including lamb (and mutton).

But, I must make this as your reaction was profound.

Now, I have all of these herbs, spices, fish sauce etc. specific to your recipe. I guess I need other recipes that use all this I bought. LOL, it was not cheap

Please help.

Your channel is awesome.

Gladiator. I mean I hardly ever say this but it was the movie of the 90s and every other movie ever after has been trying to be Gladiator.

ROMA INVICTAAA

Just made today. Complex flavour profile but the asafoetida was a bit much. Never experienced before and the smell is too much. Had to stuff my nose with the extra mint leaves.

THEY DIDN'T HAVE FLATTOP HAIRCUTS IN ANCIENT ROME

My oma made something like this growing up, it was always my favorite
