You might want to try Garum or liquamen. Personally, I'm iffy about trying any recipe that includes the words " The smell really is not bad at all". You do have a yogurt maker you are willing to sacrifice to the cause...  |
After a little research on the Web, I find that it's amazing how many places give recipes for ancient Roman dishes.
You've got to see the one for garum, at
http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/ancient/roman-recipes.html (do an in-page search for it). Make sure to read the last couple of sentences, especially. One says something like "leave
in the sun for 7 days." Then, there's something about at the end the fish have all turned to
liquid.
But one of the Scandinavian countries--Sweden, Norway, Denmark, somewhere--have a modern dish that, if memory serves me correctly, is much like the garum. I've heard that people from other countries find it absolutely detestable. It would be interesting if the Internet Archive had a fairly recent book of Scandinavian recipes, written in English . . . .
