The Roman staple was bread, which could be baked in the field by a Roman Legionary using a small, portable clay oven, or in a mechanized mass production bakery in a city such as Rome.

Romans also cooked over coals, often using olive oil which was another staple of Roman life.

Don't forget the spit. Roasting various types of meat was done on a rotating spit. Also there were household ovens where the stuffed pastries were baked.

The Romans prepared their food in various ways, such as baking, boiling and grilling. Although they didn't have gas or electric ranges as we have, they used braziers like our grills to heat things.

The roman cooking methods would be familiar to cooks of today. They used ovens for baking their breads and cakes and for some stuffed meats. They used a spit for roasting, a pot for boiling eggs and a type of brazier or grill for sausages.

The Romans cooked food by boiling, roasting, brazing, baking---just about the same way we cook food today, except that they didn't have microwaves. One thing they did like, especially at a banquet, was stuffed items. For example, a slice of meat (or a dormouse) could be rolled and stuffed with seasoned finely chopped meats, and this could be wrapped in pastry.
