A Greek Gourmand, travels through time...


Imagine yourself dining with Socrates, Plato, or Pythagoras! What tasty morsels of food accompanied the conversations of these most significant minds in Western philosophy?

Now picture yourself as you sat for a symposium with Cicero, or Pliny the Elder or Julius Caesar. The opulent feasts of the decadent Romans!

Maybe, you're following Alexander the Great during his military campaigns in Asia for ten years. Conquering the vast Persian empire, while discovering new foods.

Or try and picture the richness of fruits and vegetables in the lush Hanging Gardens of Babylon.

What foods did our ancestors ate?

How did all begin? Who was the first to write a recipe down and why?

Sauces, ingredients, ways of cooking. Timeless and continuous yet unique and so alien to us now days. Staple ingredients of the Mediterranean world -as we think now- like tomatoes, potatoes, rice, peppers, didn't exist. What did they eat? We will travel far and wide, reconstructing the diet, the feasts, the dishes of a Greek Philosopher in a symposium in Athens, or a Roman Emperor or as a rich merchant in the last night in Pompeii.....Lavish dinners, exotic spices, so-called "barbaric" traditions of beer and milk, all intertwined...

Stay tuned and find out more here, in 'The Delicious Legacy' Podcast!

  • The Art and Science of Historical Cookbooks
    2025/06/22

    Hello!

    New episode for your archaeogastronomical delights , is out now!


    Today I have author, chef and food historian Jay Reifel in this episode as my guest, and we muse about all things "Baghdadical"!

    10th century Baghdad the capital of the Islamic world in a sense it was a sensuous place.

    And it produced perhaps a cookbook, more than mere recipes something extremely modern in some senses, and something that didn't exist in the West (if we want to put labels on things) for another 400 years or so!


    This cookbook, "The Annals of the Caliph's Kitchen" contained a treasure of information and it was more than 500 pages long!

    What's Jay's favourite recipes, what did the Abbasids loved to cook and eat and what were the ingredients that we might not know today?


    Anyway I hope you'll enjoy today’s musings!


    Love,

    Thom & The Delicious Legacy
