Hello!
Welcome to Season 7 of The Delicious Legacy!
A New episode for you my dear archaeogastronomers!
I had a fab time discussing with Christopher Beckman all things anchovies, in the West -well, the Western Europe and US- but also how far back our relationship with this small fish goes, how it has changed over the millennia and what does it tell about us?
Seneca, the Stoic philosopher, found them repulsive. Horace was pithier: “They stink.”
My Greek friends, and my family, all enjoy them in various forms, fresh and fried, in vinegar and oil, or in salt, with ouzo or raki!
I hope you'll enjoy this, as much as we did! I want to add the book is fantastic read which was dare I say a little unexpected!
