My wife and I absolutely love this book. We can't wait till another one comes out with more great recipes from history.

Published by N Bazi , 1 year ago
This book spans the centuries as well as the globe to delve into the tasty history of a multitude of cultures. Preserving what is left of the antiquated recipes as well as giving an updated version thereof for those of us armed with Kitchen Aids and gas ovens, Miller gives food lovers and history buffs the perfect book to get lost in. Ancient Rome, the French monarchy, medieval peasantry...all have their moment in the pages of this book to come alive for as long as it takes you to roast a duck or brew some garum. Buy this book, then binge Miller's You Tube channel, and be a happier human.
