hey /ck/

Bit of a problem. One of my slaves (killed on the spot) knocked over and broke my last amphora of good garum and I'm having a big feast tonight (At least a dozen Senators and maybe the Emperor!)

Here's some of what I'm serving: doves, chickens, figs, dates, olives, grapes, white almonds, truffles and foi gras and cooked fowl in clay pots. And of course, plenty of the ol' vino. It's helps with the orgy after.

Any suggestions for a quick sauce to replace the garum would be appreciated.

Thanx!

Ten thousand larks tongues, remove tongues, discard larks. Etc.

Fish sauce or anchovy paste should be fine.

But if you really want to satisfy them for one or two dollars a piece...

If you are a cheap bastard just use worcestershire sauce...or some fish sauce with extra guts in it

The yellow devils to the east make something very similar. Alternatively, mix Straw-wine (or if you don't have that, take Honey and White wine) with Anchovy paste. Not the same as Garum but similar.

My mother was the picture of a real roman woman. Her go to was to have the slave's lover take the liver of the slave, fry it, crush it up with some quality olive oil, add some anchovies, and then mix in parts of the excrement afforded by the slave's death with an equal measure of his blood to tie it all together. Saved her feasts quite a few times.

Obviously best served cold.

This is something I make sometimes:
Fry some salsīcia on low heat, when done take them from the pan. Then add white wine, honey (Carthagian wine is even better, no need for honey) and the garum-like preparation the yellow barbarians to the east produce. Also add dry-pickled olivae, for a bitter-sweet taste. Let it cook till it starts to be sticky, then add the salsīcia and coat them with the sauce.

Minister vetuli puer Falerni,
inger mi calices amariores,
ut lex Postumiae iubet magistrae
ebrioso acino ebriosioris.
at vos quo lubet hinc abite, lymphae,
vini pernicies, et ad severos
migrate. hic merus est Thyonianus.

Falernian should not be mixed with Garum, it would be a shame. Defrutum, Straw Wine or even Mead would suffice.
