Old Recipes From The 1700s
ORIGINAL POUND CAKE FROM 1700'S ENGLAND
My mother made this recipe or some variation of it for over 60yrs. once a week. When I was in college my weekly "care package" always included this cake. In her letter she always included the same note:"be sure to share, I don't want you wearing these pounds home." I made a lot of friends from this treasure. Don't forget to have a "toasted pound" for breakfast. ummm! 1#butter, 1#flour, 1#sugar, reason for name. If recipe has mace in it, count on it coming from Low Country in S.C.

TOP 10 VERY OLD RECIPES FROM HISTORY - TOPTENZ.NET
From toptenz.net
Estimated Reading Time 8 minsPublished 2015-10-26
- Beer. In ancient times, beer was often drank more frequently than water as its alcohol content generally kept it more sterile. So it’s little surprise the world’s oldest known written recipe is for beer!
- Nettle Soup and Roast Hedgehog. In 2007, a team of researchers in Wales began the task of reverse engineering British cooking to discover the country’s oldest recipes.
- Kishkiyya (and more than 600 other recipes) Drinking was prohibited in 10th century Baghdad, but that apparently didn’t prevent people there from needing the occasional hangover cure.
- Spayed Sow’s Womb (and hundreds of other recipes) The oldest surviving western cookbook is attributed to Marcus Gavius Apicius, a Roman gourmand who was said to be so passionate about extravagant food that he poisoned himself when he could no longer afford the best cuisine.
- Hen in Winter (and other recipes) In 2013, even older recipes were discovered in another medieval English cookbook, this time in Durham Cathedral. Dating from 1140 AD, the recipes originally were thought to be medicinal, but new research discovered a number of culinary recipes among the tinctures and salves.
- Porpeys in broth (and approximately 200 other recipes) In 2009, researchers in England announced they had translated a handful of recipes from a medieval cookbook, written by the chefs of Richard II around 1390 AD.
- Meat cooked in water (and 34 other recipes) The oldest written recipes in the world date from Mesopotamia around 1600 BC – about 35 different recipes were found inscribed on three clay tablets, including many meat and vegetable broths.
- Ashure (Noah’s Pudding) If you believe the Turkish legend, the middle-eastern dessert known as “ashure” (pronounced “ash-oo-ray”) dates back to the last days of the flood, when Noah and his family were starting to run low on supplies.
- El Draque. A “cocktail” is defined by Merriam-Webster’s dictionary as “an iced drink of wine or distilled liquor mixed with flavoring ingredients.” According to some, the first cocktail was invented while Sir Francis Drake was stranded near Havana, Cuba in 1586.
- Linzer torte. The Linzer Torte is extolled as the world’s oldest recipe for a cake, but no one seems to know when exactly it was invented – or where – though it’s believed to be named for the Austrian city of Linz.

I run blogs to share recipes I found in old books; mainly European since I live there and have access to old books in libraries; from 500 b.c. untill 1970. I have a big passion for how people used to cook. But have a hard time to find old recipes from non-European cultures; due to language barriers or distance/the books not being online.
