Kandaulos (κάνδαυλος, also κάνδῡλος, ὁ) was an ancient Greek luxury dish of Lydian origin. The Ionian rich savoury confection was a new delicacy in Athens in the early 4th century BC.〔Andrew Dalby: ''Siren Feasts: A history of food and gastronomy in Greece'' ISBN 0-415-11620-1 Routledge 1996, p. 111〕 According to the Greek rhetorician and grammarian Athenaeus (late 2nd century AD), ''kandaulos'' came in three forms. One of them was sweet, and is described by one Hellenistic source as a πλακοῦς, ''flat cake''. A second was savoury, consisting of meat and broth with breadcrumbs. However, what these two kinds of ''kandaulos'' had in common with one another or with the third kind is not clear.〔Andrew Dalby: ''The Ancient Food from A to Z'' ISBN 0-415-23259-7 Routledge 2003, p. 188〕 The term ''kandaulos'' appears to be related to the Lydian word ''Kandaules'' (Κανδαύλης), recorded by Hipponax and Herodotus. This was a title of Hermes and Heracles and name or title of a Lydian king. But Tzetzes, a Byzantine poet and grammarian from the 12th century, says that ''kandaules'' was also Lydian for ''dog-throttler''.〔Dalby 1996, p. 245〕 ''Athenaeus'' (Deipnosophists XII 516c-d) quotes a brief recipe for the meaty version of ''kandaulos'' from Hegesippus of Tarentum, an author of Greek works on cookery and on cake-making of the 4th century BC:〔Dalby 2003, p.174〕〔''Athenaeus: The Deipnosophists, Volume V,'' transl. by Charles Burton Gulick, Loeb Classical Library 1933, pp. 323, 325〕 *«The Lydians used also to speak of a dish called ''kandaulos'', of which there were three varieties, not one merely; so exquisitely equipped were they for luxurious indulgence. Hegesippus of Tarentum says that it was made of boiled meat, bread crumbs, Phrygian cheese, anise,〔The Greek word for anise, ἄνηθον, also covers dill. If dill seeds are used then a recognizable, interesting and tasty dish results. If anise is used then a stronger, less familiar, flavour similar to liquorice is produced. Phrygian cheese was made with mare's milk. (John M. Wilkins and Shaun Hill: ''Food in the Ancient World'' ISBN 0-631-23550-7 Blackwell Publishing 2006, p.278)〕 and fatty broth.» In the original Greek:〔Gulick 1933, pp. 322, 324〕 *«καὶ κάνδαυλον δέ τινα ἔλεγον οἱ Λυδοί, οὐχ ἕνα ἀλλὰ τρεῖς· οὕτως ἐξήσκηντο πρὸς τὰς ἡδυπαθείας. γίνεσθαι δ᾽ αὐτόν φησιν ὁ Ταραντῖνος Ἡγήσιππος ἐξ ἑφθοῦ κρέως καὶ κνηστοῦ ἄρτου καὶ Φρυγίου τυροῦ ἀνήθου τε καὶ ζωμοῦ πίονος.» ==Notes and references== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kandaulos」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
