See "Ancient Roman Ingredients" for info on ingredients. Wash, cut and
stone apricots. Put them with a little cold water in a pan. Ground pepper
and dried mint (that's where the tea bag comes handy...), add Liquamen,
honey, Passum, wine and vinegar. Pour into the pan with a little oil. Cook
approximately 20 minutes on small to moderate heat. After it boiled add a
bit of cornstarch to thicken the sauce, sprinkle with pepper and serve.
