Modern food blogs wish they had this level of longevity. No popups, no ads, just stew!
A Babylonian stew prepared by Tasting History if anyone wants to try out an updated recipe:

Table of the Gods is a similar channel specifically about recipes of ancient Mesopotamia. Very neat stuff, some of which I believe comes from this very tablet.
All this content proudly and shamelessly lifted from the evil empire. ๐
Love Tasting History! I appreciate that he actually tries the food.
I've made Tuh'u before (second link), and it's rich. Easy to see how ancient people would have been all about it.
Ancient and especially people from when spices were a flex, had such strange tastes.
Edit: I've made many ancient or just super old recipes, many from Max's show. The Enlightenment era added cloves and allspice to everything. Ancient Roman flavors were not normal for now, but were fairly good.
