Malabathrum - cinnamono Explanation: Quanto al flabouring, non può essere che flavouring - aroma, condimento vedi un po' qui: MALABATHRUM, s. There can be very little doubt that this classical export from India was the dried leaf of various species of Cinnamomum, which leaf was known in Skt. as tamala-pattra.

malabatro Explanation: E' una spezia, anche se non l'avevo mai sentita nominare. Se ne parla a http://www.ling.upenn.edu/~jason2/papers/bnikeppr.htm "A summary of some of the trade goods mentioned in the Periplus is given by Casson. From Africa: ivory, tortoise shell, frankincense, myrrh, and various grades of cassia. From Arabia: frankincense, myrrh, and aloe. From India: native spices and drugs and aromatics (costus, bdellium, lykion, nard, malabathron, pepper), gems (turquoise, lapis lazuli, onyx, diamonds, sapphires, "transparent gems"), textiles (cotton cloth and garments as well as silk products from China), ivory, pearls, and tortoise shell. (Casson 17)." La parola italiana si trova su http://utenti.tripod.it/ntgflv/cucina/mare.htm |
