the one where I take a slab of animal flesh and heat it over fire

Web search "medieval cookbook" and you'll find some interesting stuff. Almond milk was used extensively where available.

I've done stuff that predates agriculture, but I didn't use recipes.

Epyterum. Recipe from Cato's De Agricultura:
Pitted, chopped green and black olives
Mix with olive oil, vinegar, coriander, cumin, fennel, rue, and mint.
Serve with bread, in a pot with a layer of oil on top.

it's basically spiced, "fresher"-tasting tapenade.

might make this for dinner

Those are probably going to be the oldest formal recipes you can find. I remember hearing somewhere that people only started to actually write out recipes and make cookbooks around that time period.

A pancake recipe from the late 1800's. It's a good one, I made them often when I was a kid. I should copy my old favorites from that book next time I go to my mom's house.

No idea. I've read up on various historical accounts of food like some on Ancient Rome and Greece, Native American, Gaelic, Aboriginal, and Medieval foods of all sorts and done some stuff out of that. I guess the most ancient type of dish I've ever done is cooking on heated campfire rocks. Must have made momma Grugg proud.

Yeah but the majority of Romans lived in shitty apartments without kitchens and ate fast food every day. No, seriously. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermopolium
