Receta Isicia Omentata (a kind of Roman Burger)
Although I enjoy cooking dishes from other countries and cultures, my real interest and love is to cook the food that previous generations cooked and that might not be so popular today.
I have been lucky enough to gather together recipes from throughout the ages.
Even though my 22 Roman recipes are nearly 2000 years old, you might be surprised to discover that things haven’t changed all that much.
As a good example, here is the recipe for Isicia Omentata, which is basically an Ancient Roman burger!
Notes:
Caroenum - very sweet cooking wine, reduced to one-third its volume by boiling, and mixed with honey.
Liquamen - a Roman fish sauce. (This fish sauce was VERY important to the Romans!)
Ingredientes
- 500g minced meat (Beef, pork â chicken can be a little dry)
- 1 French roll, soaked in white wine
- ½ teaspoonful freshly ground pepper

Direcciones
