Chef's Special: Eating Through History- Ancient Tables
Description:
Taste the past. Cook like the ancients. In Eating Through History: Ancient Tables, students step into early civilizations to explore how people cooked, ate, and lived thousands of years ago. Guided by an engaging instructor, students prepare recipes inspired by ancient cultures while learning the history behind each dish.
From Babylon to Rome, each class connects food with daily life, geography, and culture. Students will recreate:
- Tiger Nut Cake (Babylon, 1400 BC)
- Lamb Stew (Babylon, 1740 BC)
- Puls, a Roman grain porridge (2nd century)
This hands-on class brings history to life through taste, texture, and tradition, making the ancient world both tangible and memorable. See the Compass Cooking Class webpage for more FAQs about our cooking classes. There is a supply fee of $25.00 due to the instructor on/before the start of the workshop.
