A.V.I.T.A.E
Ancient food with a twist By Bianca Rasmussen, Denmark AVITAE MAGIRA is the title of the new cookbook published by the AVITAE team, with ancient recipies from all over Europe. In the fall of 2015, students from seven European countries traveled to Hotel Academia in Bratislava to work with recipes from the
participating countries and reinvent them with an innovative twist. Prior to the visit, the students did a great deal of research and dug out the recipes of five courses for an original authentic meal from the respective countries. The ancient recipes were brought to Bratislava, where the students cooked together in international teams,

competing to present the best meals for the tasters. Sofie Brøbech Hedam Hansen from Denmark went to Bratislava to cook with four other students. “I had a great experience in Bratislava. The equipment was all modern but the meals were old fashioned. It was fun to work in an international team and try to present the food in an innovative way!”.
The recipes have all been collected into one book, which is now available to download for free! http://www. avitae.org/#!magiraavita/ginyg Bon appetite!
