Encytum ad eundem modum facito uti globos, nisi calicem pertusum cavum habeat. Ita in unguen caldum fundito. †Honestum† quasi spiram facito idque duabus rudibus vorsato praestatoque. Item unguito coloratoque caldum ne nimium. Id cum melle aut cum mulso adponito.Make the enchytus the same way as the globus, except that the vessel has a hole. Therefore pour it in hot oil. Shape it as the spira, and whirl and hold with two rods. Also oil and glaze it while not too hot. Serve with honey or with mulsum.234 BCE – 149 BCE, Marcus Porcius Cato, De agri cultura 80
