I have a couple of translations of Apicius, and have tried recipes from them. Here's a rough overview:<br>
<br>
Sala Catabia: Even though it's a salad I cooked it and it's delicious, a really nice rich food (for best results use Cypriot cheese, if not a white Cheshire is nice)<br>
<br>
Ova Spongia ex Lacta: Bland, even with nutmeg and pepper<br>
<br>
Boletus Mushrooms: Delicious either on their own or as an accompaniment to steak<br>
<br>
Liver Rissoles: With the recipe I used, far too salty.<br>
<br>
If anyone wants detailed cooking instructions for the mushrooms or (cooked) bread salad, let me know and I'll post them.<br>
