El manjar de los dioses, recipes with history. Egypt, Greece and Rome.

Includes a book of the most appetising stories + a DVD with step-by-step recipes.

A book for cooking the flavours of history. An original way to discover the ancient pleasure of gastronomy.

What did the meatballs of ancient Mesopotamia taste like? How can you prepare burgers worthy of an Egyptian pharaoh? What ingredients went into a Greek soup? What exactly was Roman garum? What was so special about the green soup of the Middle Ages? What culinary secrets did the conquistadors discover in America?

The flavours and aromas of our ancestors' kitchens are the mystery that Ángeles Díaz Simón sets out to solve in this work. To do so, she offers a gastronomic journey into the past that includes recipes for dishes which, despite their great age, are a real novelty for our palates. In this way, we enter the kitchens of history's great civilisations, and learn which foods accompanied a princess of ancient Mesopotamia on her travels, where the first recipes appeared, and just how important rivers have been in the development of gastronomy. Aspects that let us discover memorable moments and delicious anecdotes from the art of cooking.
