What Did Julius Caesar Actually Eat? Was There Pasta?
A Day at the Table in Ancient Rome

Check out my new article 👉 open.substack.com/pub/pastaaffair/p/what-did-juliu…

When we imagine Julius Caesar, we picture battles, politics, the Roman Forum and that brutal assassination. But what did one of history’s most famous Romans actually eat?

While we don’t have Caesar’s personal grocery list, we do know a great deal about the diet of wealthy Romans in his time. And the truth is fascinating — and very different from modern Italian food.

Let’s spend a day eating like Caesar! — Flavia Diamante 💎

🎭 Are you ready for CARNIVALE?!? 🎉
Discover traditional Italian fried donuts called Castagnole! 🍩
Watch my NEW video recipe ‪@SweetSavoryWorld‬ 👉 https://youtu.be/ljEitVQQP0M

These Italian Carnival fried donuts, known as Castagnole, are one of Italy’s most beloved festive sweets. Small, golden, and irresistibly tender, they’re crispy on the outside, soft and airy inside, and coated in sugar while still warm. These are the softest Castagnole I've ever had and I hope you love them!

Coat them directly with granulated sugar or give them a dip in Alchermes liquor first (this turns them red and imparts a delicious hint of cinnamon).
