Mead is a real drink you know- you can try it if you're willing to pay for a good bottle. Very sweet to the point of almost being sour, with a kick, is how I would describe it.

Sweet skeever gumbo sounds....interesting.

oh really? fermented honey really exist??

Mead (/ˈmiːd/; archaic and dialectal "medd"; from Old English "medu"), is an alcoholic beverage created by fermenting honey with water, sometimes with various fruits, spices, grains, or hops. The alcoholic content ranges from about 8% ABV to more than 20%. The defining characteristic of mead is that the majority of the beverage's fermentable sugar is derived from honey. It may be still, carbonated, or naturally sparkling; dry, semi-sweet, or sweet. -Wikipedia page

I honestly wasn't sure if it was a real drink when I first heard of it (thanks video games), so I figured I'd see if it was, and apparently it is. It is a bit sickly sweet, as it is fermented honey, but it's quite nice

if you add anything to it it is called metheglin or melomel - depending on what you add.

a word of advice.... do not, under any circumstances, get drunk on mead. the hangover is terrible. probably why the nords are all so grumpy.

why is it so bad getting drunk from mead?? whats the different with getting drunk from general alcoholic beverages?

from my own and friends experiences the hangover is particularly bad. why that should be i'm not sure.

Maybe low water content?

True, bc it is fermented honey, but would having more sugar make an alcoholic beverage more potent? I suspect it's probably something to with the honey itself and not just the added sugar.

it is not the potency that causes a bad hangover its what the drink gets metabolized into.

It'd be more potent the longer you ferment it. Something brewer needs to do is decide when the batch of drink is done fermenting to get the desired balance of alcohol and flavor.

The body needs a lot of water to metabolize and purge the alcohol. The metabolism of simple sugars like those in honey also consumes water. Most of the hangover is in fact the effect dehydration. That's why sweet alcoholic beverages give the nastiest hangovers.

I can tell you I am not curious to try monkey pig cutlets. Especially after that dinner scene in Indiana Jones and farming the monkeys for meat in the game.

lol is that monkey pig cutlets even exist in Tamriel? I've never seen it before

Yeah its a level 15 blue for Health and Magicka that uses bananas and white meat.

Wing · September 2016

i would actually be really curious to try moon sugar, its one of the only real sweets in tamriel, and skooma is such a big deal, lets see what all the fuss is about.

Those steaks in the Deshaan public dungeon.

Hmm, I would not trust the mystery meat if I were you. Some psycho might have chopped up people and you might not even know it! You would not know that it is people meat until after someone tells you.

.
Well, I shall tell you something. I would not need anyone to tell me. If the beef found in the dungeon tasted more like chicken, or possibly pork, then it was probably not beef at all! That would make me very suspicious. Did you try it? What did it taste like?

Are you forgetting Sweet-Rolls?

Magic_Doogies · September 2016

Not gonna like, I really want to see how good Orzorgas Red Frothgar really is.

I *** love fruit drinks and just looking at the description makes my mouth water with envy.

The Deadly pie in City of Ash!

menedhyn · September 2016

Any of the meads, or even the whiskeys because I do like a wee dram now and again. As for food, something hearty and a bit weird, like 'Forge Wife's Spudmelon Pie'. Some of the recipe titles wouldn't look out of place in a Redwall novel!

GazettE · September 2016

Melon baked parmesan sounds good too

Annalyse · September 2016

Gold Coast Mudcrab Fries always sounded very tasty to me. I'd have that with a glass of Comberry Citrus Quencher.

I'm also very curious about Coldharbour Daedrat Snacks.

Well aren't you an edgy one.

Sweetrolls are a must. There is a recipe for them on the internet somewhere.

CapnPhoton · September 2016

Sweet roll

Since it is in ESO and still popular in the time of the Skyrim game, so they must be really good.

And also, it seems the theft of sweetrolls is a very common crime. If they are stolen that often they must really be delicious.

I thought sweet roll and fishy stick is ES signature dish? It always come out in any ES series.

Indeed Argonian. I am so curious how it would taste. And I need the skin to make a new backpack.

JamieAubrey · September 2016

Because why the *** not

Asardes · September 2016

Sometimes the daedroths in IC and VWGT drop poultry and small game. So they must taste like chicken and rabbit. I would try Daedroth and Carrots Casserole
