Eagle Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 Has anyone prepared food to go along with SOTW 1 other than what is mentioned in the activity guide? I have some ideas but thought I would see what others came up with first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCal_Bear Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 There are activity guides that she lists in the additional history resources from time to time in SOTW, there are lots of recipes in those books. For example, this was one in Egyptian section of SOTW. http://www.amazon.com/Ancient-Egyptians-Their-Neighbors-Activity/dp/1556523602 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Momling Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 I kind of do a DIY history program and add in historical and ethnic foods whenever possible. I just look up recipes online for each period or place we study. My goal is to be as authentic as possible, so we've made and eaten things like Roman garum, hardtack, jugged hare, game pies, acorn fry bread etc... We are adventurous eaters and love this sort of thing. I've never needed a separate book, everything is online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aprilleigh Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Egyptians and Their Neighbors definitely has some good recipes to try. We got the book from the library and I ended up having to copy a couple of the recipes we hadn't tried yet because someone else had put a hold on the book. For the most part, I do the same thing Momling does - there's loads of good stuff online, and I've been able to easily replace recipes that didn't sound very appealing or had ingredients that would be challenging to find. After I replaced a recipe this way the first time I started looking online to see what other options I could find whenever a cooking project came up and I've been amazed how much is out there.

FiveOaksAcademy Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 I usually google food ideas to go with our studies. I've had great results, and we are more diverse in our cooking because of it. On a funny note, 7 years ago, I used sotw 4 and activity guide. I made the pizza. I have tweaked it just a tad since then, but that has become our standard pizza crust ever since.
