Apicius, also known as De re culinaria or De re coquinaria (On the Subject of Cooking), is a collection of Roman cookery recipes, which may have been compiled in the fifth century CE,[1]Don't forget garum! Fermented fish gut sauce. You have to use the guts for their flora.
"Pliny the Elder was one of the first to define garum — which he called an “exquisite liquid” — as “a choice liquor consisting of the guts of fish and the other parts that would otherwise be considered refuse.”
This as the translated from Latin cookbook where the roman fish sauce is used maybe I saw some earlier
Im already there with you as a home chef and a gardner the virtues of fish sauce
