Trier, Germany

Trier is a southwestern German city in the Mosel wine region, near the Luxembourg border. Founded by the Romans, it contains several well-preserved Roman structures like the Porta Nigra gate,

the ruins of Roman baths, an amphitheater just outside the center and a stone bridge over the Moselle River. The Archaeological Museum displays Roman artifacts. Among Trier’s many Catholic churches is Trier Cathedral.

While all the sights of walking tour were interesting it was the buzz about the Roman dessert served with lunch that caught our attention. It was a custard like flan made with eggs, milk, pear puree  topped off a sprinkle of black pepper. I was surprised Romans had milk and eggs available to create this Pear Patina. 

FYI The Romans referred to their dessert course as mensa secunda, or "second meal." They satisfied their fondness for sweets with desserts such as fruitcakes, pudding, sweet egg-based dishes, and sweet cheeses—and in this case, a delicious pear patina.
