Oh, hell no-not the dreaded fish sauce-is there any Roman recipe without it? I suppose you’d use that awful Asian fish sauce as a modern equivalent...

I cook bacon until crisp, then saute fresh-picked green beans, chopped onion, and a few garlic cloves in the bacon grease for 5 minutes-add 1/4 cup of water, fresh tarragon, a pinch of Mexican oregano and ground pepper-cover and simmer for 5-6 minutes-delicious. I like all veggies but green beans-I will not eat them any other way...

....Very Interesting!
I’ll have to try that out sometimes.
Maybe with a few stray cubes of Eggplant or Zuchinni.

I forgot to list crumbling the cooked bacon before adding it to the pan with the water and other ingredients-the flavor blends in best that way-and hold the fish sauce...

I’m going to try it with the zucchini, which I love...

The use of a “rich fish-based sauce” amazes me. More sophistication than what is normal today.

It was terrifically popular for centuries. Closest thing that comes to mind from the everyday grocery store is anchovy paste.

There was a show on a few years back where they were doing research on the fast food places in the town they were researching. There the McDonalds used a similar recipe, pork and lamb iirc, and replaced the garum with red wine.

I wonder if it was served on a bun with Gallic fries. . .
