  • Byzantine Gastronomy
    Byzantine Gastronomy Byzantine cuisine synthesized dishes from ancient Greece and the Roman Empire with new ingredients and many innovations. The Empress Theodora ( ca. A.D. 500 – 548) invited cooks from different parts of mainland Greece and the islands to cook for her. As the capital of a powerful and rich empire, Constantinople, a bustling city of as many as 1,000,000 inhabitants at its height during the Macedonian dynasty of the late 9th-early 11th centuries, was the center of the domestic and foreign trade of Byzantium. Grain, wine, salt, meat, cheese, vegetables and fruits flowed from the provinces into its markets. The capital was also the centre of luxury trade: exotic spices and lavish foods (such as black caviar) were popular imports for the wealthy land owners, the officials of the State and Church and the rich members of the new middle class, the “mesoi”, who could afford them. Beans were a common source of protein for the peasants, the poor and the monks during fasting. The variety of vegetables, fruits and condiments-black pepper, honey, olive oil, vinegar, salt, mushrooms, celery, leeks, lettuce, chicory, spinach, turnips, eggplant, cabbage, white beets, almonds, pomegranates, nuts, apples, lentils, raisins etc. which were listed as food of the poor by Ptohoprodromos (Poems-1150), mirrors both the interest in good eating and the availability of healthy ingredients regardless of economic class. Tomato and potato were not part of the Byzantine diet, as they were introduced to the area many years later. Bread played a very important role in the Byzantine diet, so much so that the guild of bakers of Constantinople and their animals were never used by the state in order that bread baking could not be interrupted (Book of the Eparch, 911-912).

The results showed the changes in these microbial parameters during cheese ripening as weil as the differences between the surface and the interior of the cheese. 86 strains of yeast from the cheese sampies were also isolated and identified out of which the following species were found : Trichosporon cutaneum (T. beigelil), Kluyveromyces lactis (KI. marxianus var. lactis), Saccharomyc- es exiguus, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Rhodotorula rubra, (Rh. mudlaginosa), Trichosporon penici/- latum (Geotrichum penicillatum), Candida lusitaniae (Clavispora lusitaniae) and Debaryomyces han- senii.
