I don't think so. Consomme is prolly 18th century, but I have no hard
data on it. There are various stock-related preparations for the sick in
quite a few period sources, but they seem to be going primarily for a
concentrated richness more than clarity. Generally they involve cooking
the stuff in a sealed pot, sometimes with no added liquid, relying on
the liquid from the meat itself.
Today such dishes get less stuff (i.e. fewer herbs, ground gems, etc. ;
) ) added to them, at least in the European tradition, and are called
meat teas in English.
