This video cooking class is tailored for young apprentice pistores trying their hands at Roman baking for the very first time!
Join archaeologist and University of Leicester alumna, Farrell Monaco, to find out about bread and bakeries in ancient Rome, and then learn how to make a 2,000-year old Roman bread recipe as described by Cato the Elder.
