Cheesecake, has an interesting origin. A famous and beloved dessert, often considered to originate from France or Italy due to the presence of delicious cream cheesecake in traditional bakeries. But who would have thought that actually cheesecake originated from ancient Greek times, not from European kitchens. How is that possible? Here's the story!
Cheesecake, which is one of the famous desserts, is believed to have originated from the island of Samos, Greece. At that time, researchers discovered cheese molds for desserts dating back to around 2,000 BC.
There is evidence that at the first Olympic Games in 776 BC, people served cheesecake to athletes as a suitable source of food for them to eat. In addition, cheesecake is also often used as a wedding cake dish.
The recipe for ancient Greek cheesecake turns out to be not much different from the dessert version of cheesecake that we know today. During that time, the Greeks made cheesecake by mixing flour, wheat, honey, and cheese, then baking it. Although the oldest recorded cheesecake recipe dates back to Athenaeus in 230 AD, references and explanations about cheesecake had emerged long before this recipe was written.
After conquering Greece, the recipe for cheesecake spread to the ancient Roman territories, where the ancient Romans made modifications to the original recipe. They replaced the crushed cheese and eggs, choosing to serve it warm. This variation of cheesecake, known by the Romans as "libuma," became a popular delicious dish for various celebrations.
Cheesecake has become popular in Northern and Eastern Europe, where each region creates unique versions by utilizing local ingredients. The deliciousness of cheesecake has spread widely, so every European country eventually develops its own distinctive variations.
The following is the translation of the given 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any html tags: "The first mention of Cheesecake as a sweet dessert was in a cookbook in 1545. Around three hundred years later, cream cheese was discovered in New York, becoming the most commonly used type of cheese in cheesecakes, which resulted in the term 'New York Cheesecake'."
A colossal statue representing the figure of Hercules from the Roman period of the 2nd century AD was discovered by an archaeological team.
