This is a quick recipe that would be great with our Antara Olive Oil.
“This was really good, and probably would have been better if we hadn’t used a 4-cheese mix of parmesan, romano, etc. That made it a bit gooey. We also put more spaghetti than they suggested, so then the basil was a bit light. So next time, all parmesan and more basil/lemon juice sauce!” via Red Kitchen modified from Cooking for 2

Caesar’s Last Salad: Food of Ancient Rome
“On the fifteenth of March, 44 B.C., Julius Caesar was stabbed to death—not, as Shakespeare tells us, in the Forum, but in what is known today as the Piazza l’Argentina, a block of ruins 15 feet below street level that serves as a sanctuary and adoption agency for the gatti di Roma—Rome’s beloved feral cats. What is in the Forum is Caesar’s tomb, a simple mound of cement upon which people still leave flowers. This month, in Caesar’s honor, we take a look at Roman cookery—the sorts of things he might have eaten, and the foods his soldiers surely ate.” via leite’s culinaria-gary allen
