Pompeii Garum Bread
          

A thick slice of Italian bread, spread with a flavorful tuna paste inspired by an ancient fish sauce called garum.


      Ingredients

2 cans Albacore tuna, drained

2 tablespoons capers

1 teaspoon minced garlic

2 tablespoons brown mustard

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

2 tablespoons fresh rosemary leaves

About 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

3 hard-boiled eggs

1 loaf of Italian bread, uncut


      The Recipe

In a food processor, put tuna, capers, garlic, mustard, pepper and rosemary leaves.  Process until smooth.  With motor running, drizzle in olive oil until it's a good spread consistency.  Quarter eggs and add to mixture, pulsing until chopped.

Slice bread into thick slices, spread with the garum, and enjoy with a glass of red wine.  Serves about 6.
