Today we’re unboxing the bestselling historical cookbook from YouTube sensation Max Miller — “Tasting History: Explore the Past through 4,000 Years of Recipes” (co-authored with Ann Volkwein).
Based on the popular YouTube channel Tasting History, this book features over 60 recipes from across civilizations — from ancient Mesopotamia and medieval Europe to colonial America and World War II kitchens — all reimagined for the modern cook.
📖 Includes:
🍖 Ancient Roman pork roast
🍞 Medieval rye bread
🍜 Chinese Tang Dynasty noodles
🍷 18th-century punch
🍰 And even dishes from the Titanic & Tudor courts!
Each recipe comes with rich historical context, culinary trivia, and Max’s signature charm. It’s part cookbook, part history book, and all deliciously nerdy.
👀 Watch to the end for our favorite ancient dish picks!
