Cucumeres rasos (from Apicius' De Re Coquinaria III,5,1)

Cucumeres rasos: sive ex liquamine, sive ex oenogaro: sine ructu et gravitudine teneriores senties.

Translation

Peeled Cucumbers: [Season them] either with liquamen or with oenogarum, you will find them more tender and they will not cause belching or heaviness.


In this recipe oeogarum is a condiment made from a 1:1 mixture of liquamen (fish sauce) with sweet white wine that's been boiled to reduce its volume to about 60% of the original volume.

Ingredients:

1 cucumber, peeled and finely sliced
60ml oenogarum
black pepper, to taste

Combine the ingredients in a bowl, toss to combine then allow to sit in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving.
