The most commonly used dishes in lockdown
Twitter user Bill Sutherland tweeted, trying to create the world's oldest dish dating back to 1730 BC during the lockdown. These dishes of Mesopotamia are Babylonian and Assyrian. Mesopotamia is currently in Iraq and includes parts of Syria and Turkey. Bill tweeted four linked to Dishes. During the worldwide lockdown, people made a lot of experiments in dishes. This is the first case of the Coronaco, when a dish has been prepared with such an old method.
I blame lockdown but for some reason decided to cook Babylonian meal from the recipe tablet on the right; at 1750 BCE are the oldest recipes existing. Seemed to go down OK "Best Mesopotamian meal I have eaten".
