[Sca-cooks] Re: Roman and Greek recipes

[Devra at aol.com]

        There are a number of good books (giving source material) on Roman 
and greek recipes. What springs to mind immediately (currently in print) are: 
Mark Grant - Roman Cookery; Taste of Ancient Rome - Giancoma (sp??); Roman 
Dining - essays; Cookery in Roman Britain - Eng Heritage. Coming in 2006 - a new 
book on Roman/Greek cookery by Cathie Kaufman, and a new translation of Apicius 
by Sally Grainger. Out of print but very good - book from Hartley & Marks; the 
Flowers translation of Apicius.
     This is just off the top of my head, hence no ISBNs. The same lady who 
did 'Philosopher's Kitchen' did that really iffy book on Shakespear's Kitchen 
last year... with blood oranges and other truly unlikely ingredients.
