Moon sugar substitute? That would be cocaine son. I'm Rick James b****!!!

OK, not going to lie, that was my first thought for a truly appropriate moon sugar substitute, but I don't really want to cook with that...

Hmm... What about a marijuana-infused simple syrup?

Well, that is an ingredient that I can legally obtain, but I don't know... Some of my guests would definitely appreciate it.

It'd be lore-friendly at least. I had a feeling Razum-Dar was stoned throughout Caldwell's Gold...

Also, where in Canada are you that you can obtain mj legally? I'm on Vancouver Island and even here the law is grey at best. Although the dispensaries certainly act like it's legal. xD

If you could take the Moon Sugar Treats recipe from Feasty Geeks (http://feastygeeks.blogspot.com/2012/04/skryim-treats-moon-sugar.html) and add a bit of marijuana to that it might go over well. I've never cooked with marijuana before. How finely can you grind it and cook it and have it retain its properties?

Everywhere in Canada, but it's only legal if you have a prescription (it's the only thing that really helps my migraines, due to an allergy to triptans) and it comes from an authorized producer.

You can basically grind it into dust and it'd still be effective. THC knows no bounds.

LOL. I have wondered the same thing about Alchemy potions. Finding the real-world equivalent plants and conjuring up a potion to see what it would do... probably just make me horribly ill.

I think you should make Telvanni Tea

ESO Ingredients:
Lotus

Acai Berry

Honey

Real world Ingredients:
Lotus

Elderberry

Honey

Sweetroll
Banana

Corn

Seasoning

So.. banana corn muffins?

As geeky as it sounds, a ESOCon (complete with a feast) sounds terribly fun. lol.

But... But açaí berries are real.

If you made Parmesan Eels in Watermelon the way Derrick made his appetizer tonight on Masterchef, it would probably be amazing. But eel is super-expensive. Record year with Maine elvers going for $2500 a pound.

OK, a side conversation about pumpkin rabbit pie in this thread brought this up.

For a while I've considered trying to make a Tamriel-themed feast including only dishes based on recipes found in ESO. Naturally, this would be to serve to my real life friends who play/have played ESO.

So I'm asking the forums community, what recipes do you think would be the best for me to try to make? I'm looking for ones that don't require ingredients that are unobtainable outside of Tamriel, and ones that actually sound like they could be kind of tasty, while still being a bit unusual.

So what are your suggestions?

Someone from FFXIV did this once on their blog. Went through every recipe in the game and cooked a real life equivalent using ingredients from the item's recipe/description as close as they could to the game's food item, substituting ingredients where they had to (for stuff that wasn't real). It came out really good, and most of the food looked delicious.

Whoa... No way am I going to go through every recipe in ESO!

There are way too many, and I'm just not that dedicated!

Asherons_Call · September 2015

I wouldn't mind trying a little Cyrodiilic brandy or even some cheap nord mead. I wonder what psyjic ambrosia would taste like

Scyantific · September 2015

Silverside Perch Pudding and Coldharbour Daedrat Snacks

Go.

E: You must use actual rats in the second one.

Suddenly I want a series of cookbooks professionally printed and illustrated. One from each of the 10 cultures of ESO.

You could start with that book that is in skyrim that is written by the gourmet, Im sure that has a few recipes in it with instructions.

I wouldn't even suggest it. There are waaaay more cooking and brewing recipes here than any other game I can think of off the top of my head. I'd suggest picking a few from your list that sound doable/good and just feast like a king for a week.

Emperor's Fricassee and washed down with Summer Sky Pale Ale!

So what's for dinner and when can we expect our engraved invitations?

They are?!? *googles* oh.

I would apologize for not being up on my berry knowledge but I really don't care enough to care that I wasn't aware.

Thanks for the correction!

Hmm this one would probably go for the following in no particular order - only the order on which she could lay her paws on each dish:

This is probably quite like a traditional Fishmas dinner but with less moon sugar and dancing on the food.

Fishy Stick
Pan-Fried Trout
Whiterun Cheese-Baked Trout
Salted Cod
Crawdad Quiche
Apple Baked Fish
Baked Sole with Bananas
Parmesan Eels in Watermelon

Bananas in Moon-Sugar Syrup

Also this one would like to know what the tiddles is 'Monkeypig Cutlets'?

Yours with paws

They are sweet, tasty and give you a lot of energy. Seems something like a Telvanni tea would use.
