Max Miller on youtube says he knows how to make Garum - the fish sauce that is often referenced. ▶ this video Now sure if that is genuine, i previously read that the recipe for this stuff has been lost (but the Author says his receipe is based on Byzantine sources) More about the author here: link it says his historical cookbook will be published next year, in 2022.
There’s a fellow on youtube who makes dishes from antiquity, including garum. Worth a watch if you’re into cooking, or history, or both. ▶ this video
I mean... sure, programming is just putting together 0 + 1 and calling it a day too. I think you're severely downplaying how unlikely it is that this was just "done". It smells like death, so it would be unlikely anyone would necessarily want to eat it in the first place: ▶ this video
This video covers how you can make garum using a modernized version of a surviving recipe from the Geoponica: ▶ this video
