The Oldest Foods in the World

Eating some of the following dishes might not be the wisest choice, but it's interesting to know how some ancient ingredients can be preserved over time. Here are the oldest foods in the world.   Food spoils relatively quickly, but archaeologists have found some ancient preparations that have been preserved over time, and here are some of the oldest.   Roman Wine The Romans liked to be buried in style, and that's why a gallon of wine was found inside a tomb in Germany. It turns out they used olive oil to preserve the wine from oxidation, and this is the only bottle that has remained in liquid form for 1500 years.    Recipes with Wine  Chicken Breasts with Marsala Wine  Red Wine and Fruit Gelatin Burnt Bread Right in the province of Oxfordshire, England, more than a dozen pieces of burnt bread were discovered. Being in this state preserved its insides, where crushed barley was found over 5500 years ago. This means that the bread was prepared by some of the first people who stepped on Great Britain.   Bread Recipes    Tomato Bread  Arab Bread     Butter Apparently, 3000 years ago in Ireland, they made butter in bulk and liked to store it in huge copper barrels. In 2009, one of these containers was found, and inside was a still creamy, cream-colored substance that is said could still be consumed. Unfortunately, it is stored in the national museum of history, and it will be difficult for anyone to spread it on their morning bread.   Recipes with Butter    Delicious Butter Cookies  Butter Frosting     Noodles Those Italians who believe that pasta was invented in their country might be very disappointed. Apparently, the first noodles, dating back 4000 years, were found near the Yellow River in China as they were preserved in a ceramic dish trapped underground due to an earthquake that created an air vacuum where they were preserved.   Noodle Recipes    Chinese Noodles with Chicken and Almonds   Dry Noodle with Guajillo     Scottish Chocolate It is known that chocolate as a liquid was common in ancient times, but finding a box of sweet chocolates like the ones we eat today is more difficult. That’s why there was a great stir when a box of chocolates from 1902 created to commemorate King Edward VII was found.   Recipes with Chocolate  Chocolate Truffles  Chocolate-Dipped Strawberries     And you, how do you use the oldest foods in the world?
