词汇 garum
词源
garum; titmuck. It is hard to find anything good to say about the legendary Roman sauce garum, but the ancient Romans loved it. Their garum was made from the putrified guts of fish, blended with fish blood and gills in an open tub, salted heavily, then exposed to the sun, where they were stirred occasionally until the whole mess fermented and herbs were added. At the legendary banquet of the Roman merchant Trimalchio, statu- ettes of four satyrs in the corners of the room poured vile- smelling garum sauce over fish molded to appear almost alive, to make it seem as if they were swimming in a jelly sea. The only thing comparable to it available today is titmuck, an Eski- mo salmon delicacy that ripens in a hole filled with dirt and grass until it decays.
