Today we prepare an ancient Roman dessert. A flavorful layered cheesecake, sweetened with honey, prepared with a very interesting technique.
This cheesecake is named placenta in Latin, from ancient Greek plakous, which means cake, and the recipe is taken from Cato's agricultural book.
It was one of the most popular ancient Roman cakes and it gave the name to the profession of pastry maker, placentarius.
Ingredients:
spelt
white wheat flour
honey
fresh sheep cheese
bay laurel leaves
olive oil
salt

I love how Italians keep the heritage of Ancient Rome
It would be great if we still did these kind of recipes; we have similar recipes, but they don’t really look like these, ‘cause they evolved
minimal ingredients yet packed with so much flavor, love anything with honey

Amazing cake recipe. Great cooking. Big like.
If you're really adventurous, you could attempt using high extraction flour for this cake. To whiten flour in ancient Roman times, wholemeal flour was sifted through increasingly fine sieves to remove most of the bran. The result was somewhat similar to modern high extraction flour.

Looking absolutely delicious
delicious ancient recipe
Yummy and healthy cake recipe. Looks so delicious 👌👌👍👍thanks for sharing.
I haven't seen cabbage mentioned in any of your recipes. Cato was a huge fan of raw cabbage. Another excellent video, I will definitely try this. What I love most is your voice and straightforward presentation.
We talk a bit about the caulicoli molles in this video ua-cam.com/video/3ddragvvip8/v-deo.html
This one, instead, is a cabbage soup ua-cam.com/video/Q4S0Pq6BE-4/v-deo.html
@@HistoricalItalianCooking thank you. Very interesting. From what I remember Cato thought cabbage was a cure for everything and an aid to digestion and over consumption. Whereas the Medieval source you mentioned saw little nutritional value and even that it may cause dis-ease within the body if not cooked. As I'm vegetarian I will try the soup without the pork. Thanks for your kind reply. Great videos
Very nice presentation
make food yummy, share good friend

Delecious honey cheesecake, thanks for sharing
So delicious cheese cake
Awesome baking 👍👍
Plăcintă cu brânză (cheese placenta) is still the most popular baked good in Romania. It is now made as a desert or with salty cheese and dill. That cheese you need to desalt is still the cheese romanian sheperds make, is called telemea. In my oppinion (with no historical research made) romanian shepard cheese is the closest you can get now to the ancient recipies. It is very basic, there are 4 main types salted, fresh, fermented and boiled and is still made by the shepards in the mountains at the grazing fields. Here is the modern version of this: ua-cam.com/video/Qws4rB6s6Ms/v-deo.html
Also about traditional cheese making, we are living in the final years of this method, soon stainless steel will take over from the wood and linen. Factory cheese might be safer or arguably better but buying from the these guys make me feel like I belong to an old family. Check out this guys that we stiil have in most villages but will soon be gone:
