If you’ve ever wondered why modern food is the way it is, or pondered what the ancients ate in their daily lives, check out the channel above called Tasting History With Max Miller.
He covers a huge range of historical recipes: from the foods found in Tutankhamun’s tomb, to the stinky Roman fish sauce called garum, all the way to the first appearance of macaroni and cheese and what the Titanic’s upper-crust passengers feasted on. He also delves into the story behind those foods and societies and he cooks up a storm to sample those ancient delicacies.
You might not find Parthian chicken or Spartan blood stew to your liking, so there’s always a Japanese ninja diet or Gengis Khan’s lunch to serve as culinary inspiration.
