Endives

Ancient Israelite cuisine

<Leeks, onions and garlic were eaten both cooked in stews, and uncooked with bread, and their popularity may be indicated by the observation in the Bible that they are among the foods that the Israelites yearned for after leaving Egypt. Black radishes were also eaten raw when in season during the autumn and winter. The Talmud mentions the use of radish seeds to produce oil and considered eating radishes to have health benefits.

Wild lettuce was eaten as a bitter herb at the Passover meal

Wild herbs were collected and were eaten uncooked or cooked. These are known to have included endive>

I have never eaten this before.

https://pediaa.com/difference-between-cumin-and-fennel/

Cumin and fennel belong to the herbal medicine group and share some similar morphological features. As a result, seeds of cumin are often referred to as fennel or vice versa by most of the consumers in the world. But cumin and fennel are two different plants; the botanical name of cumin is Cuminum cyminum whereas the botanical name of fennel is Foeniculum vulgare. Both Cumin and Fennel belong to the Apiaceae family. The seeds of cumin are brownish in colour whereas seeds of fennel are greenish in color. They also have significantly different flavor and aroma profiles.

Num. 11: 4, 5  The mixed crowd who were in their midst then expressed selfish longing and the Israelites too began to weep again and say: “Who will give us meat to eat? 5 How fondly we remember the fish that we used to eat without cost in Egypt, also the cucumbers, the watermelons, the leeks, the onions, and the garlic!

Juniper berries are a spice used in a wide variety of culinary dishes and best known for the primary flavoring in gin (and responsible for gin's name, which is a shortening of the Dutch word for juniper, jenever)

 

Quote

 

The dwarf juniper is correspondingly described as of rather a gloomy appearance, growing in rocky parts of the desert and on crags. It is fittingly used in the book of Jeremiah when comparing the man whose heart turns away from Jehovah with “a solitary tree [ʽar·ʽarʹ] in the desert plain,” and also in warning the Moabites to take flight and become “like a juniper tree [ka·ʽaroh·ʽerʹ] in the wilderness.”—Jer 17:5, 6; 48:1, 6

Lamb: a young sheep especially  one that is less than one year old or without permanent teeth

 

Ex. 12:4 But if the household is too small for the sheep, they and their nearest neighbor should share it between themselves in their house according to the number of people. When making the calculation, determine how much of the sheep each one will eat.5 Your sheep should be a sound, one-year-old male. You may choose from the young rams or from the goats.

 

From Seder to Salvation (w90)

Some meat from the communion offering was given to the officiating priest or to other priests. (Leviticus 7:11-38) However, the paschal, or Passover, lamb was not used on the altar, and it was offered by a group of people, usually a family, who were the ones to eat it.

noodles

Noodles are ancient Chinese food. The history of noodles goes back to as early as the Eastern Han Dynasty (206 BC–220 BC) when noodles became an essential staple ingredient in Chinese cuisine. In ancient times, noodles were made from wheat dough. During the Song dynasty (960–1279 AD) noodles were so popular that noodle shops remained open all night. In the year 2002, an earthenware bowl containing the world’s oldest noodles was found at the Lajia archaeological site in China.

Made from steel cut oats.

The same groats used to make rolled oats are instead chopped into two or three pieces rather than flattened, resulting in steel cut oats’ small, pin-like appearance.

Because of their thickness and chewier texture, they take a bit longer to cook, and they’re not as ideal when it comes to putting them into your flourless oatmeal cookie recipe. Cook up your half cup of steel cut oats for breakfast, and you’ve got a fiber packed, slowly digesting meal that will keep you full and energized until lunch (better than quicker digesting rolled oats do)

..oats are one of the grains which Jews are not to eat during the Feast of the Unleavened Bread

Phew, for a moment I thought the Jews don't eat noodles. 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish_cuisine

Traditional noodles—lokshen—are made from a dough of flour and eggs rolled into sheets and then cut into long strips. If the dough is cut into small squares, it becomes farfel. Both lokshen and farfel are usually boiled and served with soup

Dictionaries - Easton's Bible Dictionary - Pomegranate

Pomegranate [N] 

i.e., "grained apple" (pomum granatum), Heb. rimmon. Common in Egypt ( Numbers 20:5 ) and Palestine ( 13:23 ; Deuteronomy 8:8 ). The Romans called it Punicum malum, i.e., Carthaginian apple, because they received it from Carthage. It belongs to the myrtle family of trees. The withering of the pomegranate tree is mentioned among the judgments of God ( Joel 1:12 ). It is frequently mentioned in the Song of Solomon (Cant Joel 4:3 Joel 4:13 , etc.). The skirt of the high priest's blue robe and ephod was adorned with the representation of pomegranates, alternating with golden bells ( Exodus 28:33 Exodus 28:34 ), as also were the "chapiters upon the two pillars" ( 1 Kings 7:20 ) which "stood before the house."

QUINOA

According to Wikipedia quinoa was fed to animals up to 7,000 years ago and eaten by humans up to 4,000 years ago.

No mention of Bible lands, though but these are definitely Bible times.

More recently, it reportedly has been declared kosher for Passover according to this source.
