Aliter pisam sive fabam
(Broad Beans or Split Peas)

Origin: Roman      Period: Traditional

Original Recipe

Aliter pisam sive fabam (from Apicius' De Re Coquinaria)

Aliter pisam sive fabam: despumatam subtrito lasare Parthico, liquamen et caroeno condies. oleum modice superfundis et inferes.

Translation

When the peas or beans are skimmed mix broth, honey, must, cumin, rue, celery seed, oil and wine, stir. Serve with crushed pepper and sausage.

Though based on the work of the Roman fourth-century CE gastronome, Apicius this recipe is derived from a description given in a poem by the first-century CE poet, Martial.

Ingredients:

450g broad beans of dried split peas (with skins removed)
1 tsp black peppercorns
4 tsp fresh lovage (or celery leaves)
1¼ tbsp grated fresh or ground ginger
60ml fruity white wine
pinch of celery seeds
1¼ tbsp liquamen (or Nam Pla)
3 tbsp olive oil
white wine vinegar to taste


Method:

Soak the peas or broad beans for 24 hours before cooking. Cook them in salted water over a low heat for several hours until they are soft (remember to keep topping-up the water).

When the pulses are done drain and add in the remaining ingredients. Mix well, place in a bowl, garnish with the halved yolks of hard-boiled eggs and serve.
