Cooking the Ancient Greek Myths

[@benjalucian1515]

I bought the Italian fish sauce Max Miller suggested since I wasn't going to make my own garum like he spent the summer doing. I keep many of the ancient spices and herbs handy in my pantry in case I feel historical. Internet is your friend when trying to find obscure herbs and spices.

[@FeltheBlithe]

I always feel kind of weird ordering spices on the internet, but I’ve done it a few times with medieval spices. I’ll have to check out Max Miller’s recommendations

[@puppywaffles3842]

One time I made these stag shaped pastries??? Let’s just say Artemis got the majority of those 🫡

[@BlithedEver]

I wonder if the honey cakes would be good ritual food to give Demeter since honey is sacred to her…

[@WildMen4444]

Honey cakes tend to be good offerings for all of the Gods. I haven't heard of a single one that doesn't take them

[@CDKohmy]

Aside from the dessert, these seem to fit well into my low-carb diet. I would've expected everything to contain grain.

[@FeltheBlithe]

There definitely were several that did but surprisingly not most of the main meals. Lots of veg

Welcome Back Phil 🧡

[@MichaelRogerStDenis]

It's nice to see you back! I never get tired of watching your content. Plus, boots on the ground in the grocery store was pretty funny 😂

I tried making these like stag cakes things, they tasted like flour, I was eating flour with a little hint of honey. Artemis enjoyed all of them lol. I also tried making barley cakes for a specific festival, and they failed, so I have to keep practicing with making ancient hellenic cakes lol, bc they really are such easy offerings.

I don’t like tea, but I like to see if I like different brands. Only brand I apparently like is Yogi. I normally take 1-3 sips before giving the rest to Hades, so I totally get the “yeah, you can have this.”

i am in the same boat with shopping and adhd i was actually asked once by someone around my age and he was like "hey ive seen u have gone down this aisle twice already what r u doing" it was funny just how it is for me ig

[@FeltheBlithe]

[@Davlavi]

Fascinating thanks.

[@Gabriel-xi9xi]

I have not made any authentic ancient Greek food but I did just finish prepping some strawberries with sugar and rose water,cookies and wine as an offering for tonight

[@FeltheBlithe]

Oooo sounds delicious 😍

[@Hellenick4]

I MISSED YOU🎉

[@hathorsheathen]

I loved this video so much, was excited to get the notificaton! :) Lentils are super close to split peas, at least. 😛 I'm definitely going to make honey cakes once I hit the farmer's market.

[@FeltheBlithe]

At least I had that going for me 😂 and let me know how they turn out!

[@Katsura_ja_nai_Zura_da]

Maybe use some tea with those cookies!

[@patriciamurray1184]

The soup you made reminded me of Fakes (sounds like the F word in english.)

[@FeltheBlithe]

Ooo I’ll have to look that up!

[@Bjorn_Algiz]

Very interesting 😮😊 love it! ❤️

[@krymsonuchiha14]

Omg I am so happy i want to try these!

[@FeltheBlithe]

Let me know how they turn out!

[@krymsonuchiha14]

@@FeltheBlithe I definitely will! I'll have to replace some things since I have food allergies but it's worth a shot to try!

[@winternymphaea]

did you have video on veiling or did I make that up?:0

[@FeltheBlithe]

I mention veiling in my Cleanliness video in my 101 series!

[@winternymphaea]

@@FeltheBlithethank you so much!!!!

[@emilykestrel5446]

So panspermia is like an ancient seven bean soup?🤔

[@benjalucian1515]

If you're a fan of Max Miller's Tasting History, you saw his reaction when he tasted the kykeon HE made. 🤮. I've made several ancient Roman recipes, but haven't tried any ancient Greek ones. I want to try panspermia, if I can get over the name, and the squash/gourd recipe. Asofoetida does indeed stink. I bought some online to make Parthian chicken and though it came sealed in its own container, I had to wrap it in a plastic baggie to keep it from making my pantry odoriferous. My honey cakes didn't turn out well either. Not sure what went wrong. Most modern honey cakes are based on Jewish holiday honey cakes which aren't the same thing as some contain coffee as an ingredient. But I'll try again.

[@FeltheBlithe]

Good to know about Asofoetida 😅 and haha I did see that video. I don’t consider myself a picky eater but man is Kykeon brutal.
