Title: Presenting Vol. 1 of the Talossan Book of Cuisine!
Post by: Breneir Tzaracomprada on March 17, 2022, 12:18:22 PM
Vol. 1 of the Talossan Book of Cuisine is here!
Please read and cook to your heart and stomach's delight.

First, thanks must be given to our first group of contributors:
@Iason Taiwos, who also helped proofread the final draft and provided the cover photo of Cjovani food. @Baron Alexandreu Davinescu, @xpb, @Ian Plätschisch, @Tric'hard Lenxheir and Vitxalmour Conductour also provided photos and recipes to this first volume.

This first edition is a slim one but this is just a beginning. Hopefully, you will enjoy this first edition so much that you will be moved to contribute to the next volume. And then work will begin on Volume 2.

The cookbook can be accessed here https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ajOZLr6CRr_scAS9TyUdhc3uFo9wY2HA/view?usp=sharing (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ajOZLr6CRr_scAS9TyUdhc3uFo9wY2HA/view?usp=sharing)
Feedback is welcome.
And if you happen to cook one of the recipes please feel free to post pictures and reviews here in this thread.

Anyone who has issues with downloading please let me know.
The file was too large to attach here on Wittenberg so I went with a Google Drive link.
Also, of course, so begins the call for recipes for Volume 2. :)

It would not be too onerous a task to publish this cookbook using the tools provided by Amazon in e-book and print book creation. All of my writing (my two novels and my book of plays) are published using this platform.

Thank you Mr. Secretary, that is a great idea. Do you know if the National Library is a standalone online institution or if it is connected with the TalossaWiki? Talossan published works might be an awesome inclusion in the National Library.

So I created the library on the wiki as a place to easily keep track of everything, since we were starting to lose poems and stories and things. I'm sure we did still miss things along the way, but it also preserved a great deal. Separately and also excellently, GV has a large Google drive of different primary documents that he's collected over the years. There's a lot of overlap. We've never really bothered to formally sort it out, since I think that GV has created more of a research archive and the wiki has more of a consumer library.

It's a shame that some of the works on the site aren't linked. I know I'd personally enjoy perusing the "stacks."

You're too kind!  Yes, those were good days.  Exhausting, though!  Never missed a deadline, largest staff in Talossan history, first corporation, and went for two years straight releasing an issue every fortnight.  Difficult stuff.

The fact that you put the marmalade on the end side of the bread really bothers me...

Vol. 1 of the Talossan Book of Cuisine is here!
Please read and cook to your heart and stomach's delight.

First, thanks must be given to our first group of contributors:
@Iason Taiwos, who also helped proofread the final draft and provided the cover photo of Cjovani food. @Baron Alexandreu Davinescu, @xpb, @Ian Plätschisch, @Tric'hard Lenxheir and Vitxalmour Conductour also provided photos and recipes to this first volume.

This first edition is a slim one but this is just a beginning. Hopefully, you will enjoy this first edition so much that you will be moved to contribute to the next volume. And then work will begin on Volume 2.

The cookbook can be accessed here https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ajOZLr6CRr_scAS9TyUdhc3uFo9wY2HA/view?usp=sharing (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ajOZLr6CRr_scAS9TyUdhc3uFo9wY2HA/view?usp=sharing)
Feedback is welcome.
And if you happen to cook one of the recipes please feel free to post pictures and reviews here in this thread.

I finally checked out Vol.1 and it's amazing! I'll definitely try to make at least one of the simpler recipes.

I kind of want to volunteer a recipe or two for Vol.2 but I'm not sure I have anything special to offer. There's two easy dishes I like making at uni (vegetable rice with soy sauce, and frittata di zucchine) but again they're not particularly original. I might stick to desserts and do semifreddo and tiramisu.

I'll work on that then! Semifreddo has already been shared around so I wrote a recipe already, I'll review it and send it over with pics. Others will follow later.

  • Three tablespoons toasted sesame seed oil
  • Two tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
  • Two large garlic scapes, thinly sliced, or two cloves of garlic, minced, as preferred or available


Directions

       
  • What do you do when you finish with your watermelon?  You eat the rind!  Four cups of watermelon rind is typically something like the rind of between 1/4 and 1/5 of a medium watermelon.  To prepare, first trim off any red flesh that you still see, and then use a knife or vegetable peeler to remove the waxy green outside.  You should be left with curved strips of white rind.  Slice these into very thin strips with a sharp knife or a mandolin.
  • Add your thin strips of rind to a large bowl, and then use your hand to stir them around while covering them in the salt.  You want each strip to get a liberal coating of salt.  If you need more salt, go nuts with it.  Don't worry -- most of that's going to be washed away!  Set this mixture aside.
  • In another large bowl, mix together all of the other ingredients.  You want to end up with a thick paste.  Add more or less sesame oil, as necessary to achieve this.
  • Once fifteen minutes have elapsed, begin squeezing out the watermelon rind.  It should already be sweating its juices, but you want to squeeze it tightly and wring out the rest of the liquid.  You can do this by the handful or use a cheesecloth, but don't use a mechanical press, since you want to keep the strips physically intact.  This process eliminates most of the salt, as it is carried away by the juice.  Try to wring out as much juice as you can, transferring the completed strips over to the bowl with your prepared sauce.  Discard the juice.
  • Thoroughly mix, making sure to coat each strip in sauce.  If you have disposable gloves, you might want to wear them at this point.
  • You're done!  While your subak kimchi is ready immediately, it will continue to ferment and become more delicious over the next few days.  Store in the fridge in a tightly sealed container.
  • One common way to serve subak kimchi is putting a small pile on the side of a bowl of sticky rice, topped with a sunny-side egg.  If you're feeling masochistic, have a glass of soju (소주) with it!

Another excellent recipe! Thanks Baron

Just a heads up we are still accepting recipes for Volume 2 of the Book of Cuisine.

Recent focus has been on Fora Talossa but we are hopeful to get the next volume published in the fourth quarter of this year.

I want to publicly thank @Iason Taiwos for his recent recipe submission for Volume 2.
With his submission we are now up to a half-dozen recipes.
Hoping to get at least a few more before preparing publication with some of my own recipes.
