The organizers of Roman Days, from Xanten to Aalen, annually treat their guests to Roman delicacies. Some Roman fans, Latin teachers, and students also try their hand at recreating these dishes and baked goods. Their source: the famous Roman cookbook by Apicius, which is now available in a monolingual German edition from Reclam. Notes on quantities, several recipes for recreating in today's kitchen, a glossary, and an afterword about the author and the work, as well as the cooking and eating habits of the Romans, complete the text.
