Despite a 2000 year difference, their food, drink, and meal habits almost seem modern . . . but not quite.<br /><br />What follows is mostly a tabular synopsis of what kinds of bread, vegetables, fruit, and drink the Romans of the Late Roman Republic were accustomed to as well as a couple of short tables showing how everyday meals and fancy dinner parties were different from one another.<br /><br />Only the rich could afford a steady diet of meat. So wheat (known to the Romans as "corn" [frumentum]) was the staple food of most Romans. They mostly ate it as a boiled porridge, sometimes adding flavorings or relishes to it. They had desserts too. And, of course, bread was a staple.Antalya City Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10393689235714806016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6367560059770723852.post-60643200794503059732011-08-18T17:31:56.922-07:002011-08-18T17:31:56.922-07:00That sound like an easy dishes to cook but I am no...That sound like an easy dishes to cook but I am not sure I will like the taste.

Loved these since I was young and always wondered why their chicken meat is so tender and succulent, yet looked simple when served.<br /><br />So the trick is to MASSAGE the chicken for about 5 minutes, same as you get a body massage!! It was hilarious how the chef demonstrated! Having done so, poke diagonally using long needles into the flesh, immerse the whole chicken and boil (with ginger and two types of Chinese herbs/ roots). Hang it to dry... you will get real juicy, white tender meat!<br /><br />Cheerswoman724http://woman724.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6367560059770723852.post-90574644578411026652011-08-16T10:49:51.193-07:002011-08-16T10:49:51.193-07:00I have learned a lot from this informative and ins...I have learned a lot from this informative and inspirational post.Angie's Recipeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14978978261098754954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6367560059770723852.post-26007821099111290212011-08-16T07:49:29.050-07:002011-08-16T07:49:29.050-07:00mant thanks to sie, jasna,junia, syed alfandi, mar...mant thanks to sie, jasna,junia, syed alfandi, mari wilbur, sutapa, nava and lena for your kind visits and keen interests in this post. have a wonderful day.cookingvarietieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10421300454423910663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6367560059770723852.post-56495992405238955372011-08-16T05:01:27.681-07:002011-08-16T05:01:27.681-07:00that's interesting and a little suprised to kn...that's interesting and a little suprised to know peacock and flamingo too were eaten. oh boy, how did they cook the flamingo's tongue?lenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16425536535768950935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6367560059770723852.post-43537011481794851982011-08-16T02:48:25.864-07:002011-08-16T02:48:25.864-07:00Plenty of info of how food was done which is open ...Plenty of info of how food was done which is open for us to try.
