I love heritage or antique recipes, but I don’t have any that are 600 years old as far as I know. Wow.

"I love heritage or antique recipes, but I dont have any that are 600 years old as far as I know. Wow." The BEST BEER I've ever had was at the City Tavern in Old Philly. The Recipe was Ben Franklin's. The Second Best Beer I've ever had was at the same place. It Was George Washington's own recipe.

A friend of mine had a translation of an ancient Roman cook book - over 2000 years old.
Some if sounded interesting, but a lot it was just plain revolting.
