商品簡介
In the grand tapestry of history, certain figures emerge with such flamboyance and audacity that their stories echo through the ages. One such larger-than-life personality was Commodus, the enigmatic Roman Emperor who ruled with a unique blend of eccentricity and power. While his exploits in the gladiatorial arena are well-documented, it is his extravagant tastes and legendary feasts that have become the stuff of culinary legend. ''Feasts of the Arena: 99 Culinary Triumphs Inspired by Commodus'' invites you on a gastronomic journey through the decadent world of ancient Rome, exploring the culinary delights that fueled the extravagant banquets of this gladiatorial emperor. As we delve into the annals of history, we uncover the fascinating intersection of power, spectacle, and cuisine that defined Commodus' reign.

This cookbook aims to resurrect the spirit of his opulent feasts, capturing the essence of the sumptuous spreads that graced his banquet tables.

As we traverse through the pages, we encounter dishes that pay tribute to the diverse influences on Roman cuisine, from the aromatic spices of the East to the hearty meats of the Germanic tribes. The feasts hosted by Commodus were legendary not only for their abundance but also for the theatrical flair with which they were presented. The cookbook captures this spirit by providing not just recipes but also insights into the art of presentation and the lavish table settings that defined Roman banquets. From intricately carved fruit sculptures to dishes adorned with edible gold, each recipe is a nod to the extravagant aesthetic that Commodus demanded.
