Probably something like honey and water.

This a fun one, but some of the recipes are a bit dangerous.

In making beer, recipes are only needed by those who have had too much beer.

Fermented beverages are the winner here. More than 5,000 years old.

Ask You Tuber Max Miller.

I love his YouTube channel Tasting History, and his cookbook.

I’m thinking raw meat with a touch of dirt and fur.

[[What’s the oldest known recipe?]]

I’m guessing a recipe for lutifisk?

Did they use cups and tablespoons? Or grams and milliliters?

Or cubits?

Beer is the clear winner. First of all, it is food. Second it is much safer to drink than water. Third, it happens naturally, fermentation of grain and water. Fourth, it needs a recipe, because if it happens improperly it tastes bad.

There are all sorts of food grains in the West. In the East, rice dominates, so you get rice beer, aka Sake. Also a very ancient recipe.

Nope. Somewhere there has to be a cave painting of a pot over a fire. Boiling water is cooking — talk to any nonSTEM graduate of any Ivy league school. A piccie = recipe when written language is not created yet.

So what's the oldest known recipe?

Put leaves in cup; add hot water.

Oldest recipe?

Probably something with berries and fruit. You just pick it off a tree.

Didn’t Eve bite an apple?

...such as blood and cooked rodents...

Those are considered food in China today.
