Perhaps I should clarify what I was asking for – I wasn’t asking for similarities to the current Mass. I was asking for any actual liturgy or ritualized practice as such.
Doesn’t the Didache (1st century) describe the Mass in some way?

The first thing that Jesus did after rising was to perform a Mass. On the road to Emmaus and at Emmaus, we have the two key ingredients of the Mass - Liturgy of the Word and Liturgy of the Eucharist.
 
So then, it wasn’t liturgy, nor was it ritualized.

(Also, since you’re claiming they just followed a Jewish liturgy, it seems you might present what this liturgy was.)
If it follows the Jewish liturgy, then it HAS to be ritualized.
 
The paramount ritualized Jewish celebration is the Passover seder, which forms the basis for the Christian Mass.
👍 How did I miss that? :o
I would suggest contacting the Association for Hebrew Catholics, run by the wonderful Rosalind Moss an her son(?) for more info than one can digest in a month on the links between the Christian Mass and the Passover Seder.
