The answer is wrong here. Kitab al-Ṭabīḫ is the earliest known culinary book of its kind. Some accounts state that it was likely written about 950 AD (10th century)

It doesn't take much searching in the web to find the answer is bunkum. Even the Kitab al-Tabih mentioned by our friend Player #9250919 doesn't come close. Ancient Mesopotamia Akkadian tablets circa 1700 BC, Roman "De re coquinaria" circa 3rd to 4th century.
