Categories: Food | Soup

  • The History of Stew

    Since prehistoric times, boiling has been used to prepare and cook food. Evidence shows that tribes of the 19th and 20th centuries boiled their food. Turtle shells were used as bowls and the meat of the turtle was combined with other ingredients. Some cultures also used clam shells in which to boil foods.

    The Roman cookbook Apicius contains recipes for lamb and fish stew. Hungarian Goulash can be traced back to the 9th century. Many popular recipes for stews like gumbo were published in the 19th century.
