There’s a fellow on youtube who makes dishes from antiquity, including garum. Worth a watch if you’re into cooking, or history, or both. [VIDEO]
Read original comment ↗This video covers how you can make garum using a modernized version of a surviving recipe from the Geoponica: [VIDEO]
Read original comment ↗I mean... sure, programming is just putting together 0 + 1 and calling it a day too. I think you're severely downplaying how unlikely it is that this was just "done".

Read original comment ↗Max Miller on youtube says he knows how to make Garum - the fish sauce that is often referenced. [VIDEO] Now sure if that is genuine, i previously read that the recipe for this stuff has been lost (but the Author says his receipe is based on Byzantine sources) More about the author here: [LINK] it says his historical cookbook will be published next year, in 2022.
