3. Recipe:

- Jumbo Sized Shrimp
- Vegetable Oil
- 2 c. of Panko or Bread Crumbs
- 2 c. of Flour
- 2 eggs (not shown in picture)
- 1 tbs. of Water
- Starch
- A pinch of Salt and Black Pepper
- Parsley (for garnish XD)

First if your shrimp has the outer shell, de-shell the shrimp (but keep the tail intact) (The starch is uncessasry unless you’re using fresh shrimp. It’s to clean the shrimp from dirt and get rid of it’s fishy smell!), set the shrimp aside to let dry. Next in a bowl pour in the flour, salt and black pepper and mix together, set aside. Next, take the water and eggs and mix them together. Heat the oil and start to mix everything together.

Dip the Shrimp into the Flour first. Next dip the Shrimp into the Eggs. And then into the Panko / Bread crumbs. Continue until all the Shrimps are covered. Next place the shrimp carefully in the oil. BE CAREFUL IT WILL BE HOT! Cook for 1 minute or until golden, then place the shrimp on a cooking rack, or on a paper towel to dry, then place the shrimp on a cooking rack, or on a paper towel and serve! ENJOY! XD

2. Name of dish: Mumble Munchies

3. Recipe to make mumble munchies:

1) Prepare the following ingredients:

2x Long Korean Cucumbers (they tend to be more Crispy and hydrated)
10x Organic Cherry Tomatoes (organic, because they tend to taste sweeter, and larger, so when u bite into them, they explode in your mouth)
2x handfuls of Popcorn seeds
1x teaspoon of Olive Oil

2) Heat pan, when heated, coat the bottom of your pan with Olive Oil, place the Popcorn seeds in the pan, cook for 2-3 minutes then start shaking the pan until they pop (note that the pan needs to be covered with lid when doing so)

3) Wash your cucumbers and cherry tomatoes, after doing so, place the cherry tomatoes on plate, and the cucumbers after they are sliced.

4) What finished with step 3, popcorns' should be ready, place a bit ontop of the salad as garnishing.

5) Finished! You now have what it takes to conduct an Orchestra of Crunching sounds on mumble, have fun!

2. Thwacking good Gremlin lentil soup. (GL Soup for short.)

3. Recipe
-1 medium-sized onion, chopped to smithereens
-2 cups of (green) lentils
-A pinch of salt, more if you like sodium
-A teaspoon of olive oil
-1/2 cup of butter (Salted, unsalted, doesn't matter.)
-A tablespoon of oregano
-Mint is optional
-Finally, as much Sriracha sauce as much as humanly tolerable!

Directions are listed as follows:
i- Sauté the chopped onions until they turn pink, or a light brown hue
ii- Boil the 2 cups of lentils in a pot for about 14-19 minutes. If they have boiled enough, one shall know because the tightly packed lentils will soon scatter. Don't boil too much, however, or else the lentils will separate far too much!
iii- After the boiling of the lentils is complete, completely drain them with a strainer.
iv- Wait for the lentils to cool for about five minutes, then drop them into a large bowl along with the onions. Mix thoroughly.
v- Once you have mixed, get ready for the real tricks! Get some water boiling in a small/medium pot, then toss in the lentils and onions. Onc everything is in, start stirring the whole thing on low to medium heat, and toss in the stick of butter as well. Keep mixing all the contents for 4-6 minutes, then immediately transfer the pot to a cooler surface. (Namely a mat or another unused part of the stove.
vi- Pour your soup into a small bowl (must be enjoyed sparingly, no luxuries for Gremlins! That is, if you are a Gremlin...)
-vii Pour all the olive oil and oregano at hand, then add a pinch of salt.
-viii Put on the optional pinch of mint.
-ix Last, but not least, squirt on some Sriracha and let the sparks fly!

Category Name: Entree
Name of your Dish or Drink: Rock Salt Encrusted Reaper Ribs
Recipe:
Ingredients
1/2 rack of your favorite ribs (I used pork spareribs)
3-4 tablespoons salt-free blackening spice OR make your own with:
-1 tablespoon dried chopped onion
-1 tablespoon granulated garlic
-1-2 teaspoons pepper, to taste
-1 teaspoon paprika
-1 teaspoon oregano
-1 teaspoon basil
-1 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional; I did not use it because these were for Sol and he doesn't care for much spice)
1 bunch fresh Italian parsley
several sprigs fresh thyme
1 box Rock Salt (or coarse Kosher salt, if you don't live on Cradle. You'll need 2-3 lbs; I used a little over 2.)
2 egg whites
a splash of water

*Mix together all of the dry spices if you're putting the blackening together yourself. Add just enough water to your spice mixture (or your premixed salt-free blackening spice) to wet it and rub it all over the ribs, leaving a thick layer. Let ribs sit to dry marinade for at least an hour.
*Preheat oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
*Pour a 1/4 to 1/2 inch layer of salt in the smallest baking dish in which you can comfortably fit your ribs
*Mix the egg whites with enough salt to make a "wet sand" consistently and set aside
*Trim leafless stems from the Italian parsley and place a layer of greens in the center of the salt in your baking dish, then set your ribs on the Italian parsley
*Tuck the sprigs of thyme around the ribs, then follow with a generous layer of the Italian parsley, making sure that any areas that don't have a layer of fat over the meat have a good covering of the herbs; this protects your ribs from becoming too salty
*Pack the egg white and salt mixture around the herb-wrapped ribs, tucking the herbs in as necessary. There should be no meat exposed to the air. If your ribs are large or oddly shaped, you may need to make more salt and egg mixture to cover them completely
*Bake, uncovered, for about an hour.
*Remove from the oven and let sit 10-15 minutes; your salt crust should be hard and golden
*Crack open the salt crust and lift off of the ribs; you may need a heavy knife to cut into the crust. Remove the wilted fresh herbs and brush off excess salt. Discard salt crust.
*Garnish with a sprig of thyme and serve.

I have returned again to upload another thing. this time in the Entree category. I think this would be called the...Stone Grove Pockets! (once again I have to apologize for the shoddy quality of photography)

bear in mind this is a 3 stage recipe, so I apologize for one more Wall of Text

first part... ! the Lichenous Bread
(pitas)

Mats:

1 package of yeast, or quick rising yeast
1/2 cup warm water
3 cups all purpose flour
1 1/4 teaspoon (rock) salt
1 teaspoon granulated sugar
1 cup lukewarm water
Preparation:

Dissolve yeast in 1/2 cup of warm water. Add sugar and stir until dissolved. Let sit for 10-15 minutes until the water starts foaming.

Combine flour and salt in large bowl.

Make a small depression in the middle of flour and pour yeast water in depression (reminiscent of those mashed potato volcanoes most of us made as kids :3).

Slowly add 1 cup of warm water, and stir with wooden spoon or rubber spatula until elastic.

Place dough on floured surface and knead for 10-15 minutes. When the dough is no longer sticky and is smooth and elastic, it has been successfully kneaded.

Coat large bowl with vegetable oil and place dough in bowl. Turn dough upside down so all of the dough is coated.

Allow to sit in a warm place for about 3 hours, or until it has doubled in size (I suspect the bread is part Lichen since you turn your back on it and it grows ginormous.)

Once doubled, roll out in a rope, and pinch off 10-12 small pieces. (probably the one time it's advised for adventurous knights to try dismantling a Lichen) Place balls on floured surface. Let sit covered for 10 minutes. Preheat oven to 500 deg F. and make sure rack is at the very bottom of oven. Be sure to also preheat your baking sheet.

Roll out each ball of dough with a rolling pin into circles. Each should be about 5-6 inches across and 1/4 inch thick.

Bake each circle for 4 minutes until the bread puffs up. Turn over and bake for 2 minutes.

Remove each pita with a spatula from the baking sheet and add additional pitas for baking.

Take spatula and gently push down puff.

now the next a lovely Brimstone topping taken from the devilites (I assure you the old devilite recipe should be a bit more Knight friendly and less Rotten Egg flavor)

Reagents (also known as mats):

One can snipe-peas, also called garbanzo beans
1/4 cup (59 ml) fresh Yellow Shards (lemon juice),
1/4 cup (59 ml) tahini (it's like a sesame seed paste, I learned soon after it's a bit too strong for Peanut Butter substitute ^^;)
Half of a large Static Clinger (garlic clove, minced) (the more the merrier so adjust to taste)
2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for serving
1/2 to 1 teaspoon kosher salt, depending on taste
1/2 teaspoon ground Meteor Mote (cumin)
2 to 3 tablespoons water
Dash of ground paprika for serving

fair warning you WILL need to use the Alchemy Machine (blender) for this. best of luck not catching the engine on fire or making smoke come out... erm, not that this happened to me or anything >.<

In the Alchemy Machine or: press that button like a champeen LD Trolaris Spammar!

combine tahini and Yellow Shards (lemon juice).
Process for 1 minute. Scrape sides and bottom of bowl then turn on and process for 30 seconds.
This extra time helps “whip” or “cream” the tahini, making smooth and creamy hummus possible.
Add the olive oil, minced Static Clinger (garlic), Meteor Mote (cumin) and the salt to whipped tahini and Yellow Shards (lemon juice). Process for 30 seconds, scrape sides and bottom of bowl then process another 30 seconds.
Adding the Chickpeas
Open can of chickpeas, drain liquid then rinse well with water. Add half of the chickpeas to the food processor then process for 1 minute. Scrape sides and bottom of bowl, add remaining chickpeas and process for 1 to 2 minutes or until thick and quite smooth. (if it's too rocky looking and bumpity, just add a tablespoon of water at a time, and

*fair warning* if you do see smoke coming from the side or smell a slight burning scent from the machine, don't hesitate to just give it 10 minutes or so to let it cool down. it's food, not another attempt at ragecrafting :p

oh and last but not least: Gremlonium chunks that don't taste too Falafel

Testing Agents (mats again :P)

1 cup snipe-peas (chick peas)
1/2 large onion, roughly chopped (about 1 cup)
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro (I think you can find these herbs in haven, just you know, chop down yonder shrub and/or bushes)
1 teaspoon salt
1/2-1 teaspoon dried Blaze Pepper (hot red pepper)
4 cloves of Static Clingers (garlic)
1 teaspoon Meteor Mote (cumin)
1 teaspoon baking powder (since it's such a minimal amount I think you can trade powder for baking soda)
4-6 tablespoons flour
Soybean or vegetable oil for frying
Chopped tomato for garnish
Diced onion for garnish
Diced green bell pepper for garnish
Tahini sauce
Pita bread

preparation

1. Put the chickpeas in a large bowl and add enough cold water to cover them by at least 2 inches. Let soak overnight, then drain. Or use canned chickpeas, drained (canned would be so much faster and convenient. I had a hard time finding the dried ones >.>)
2. Place the drained, uncooked chickpeas and the onions in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade. Add the parsley, cilantro, salt, hot pepper, garlic, and cumin. Process until blended but not pureed.
3. Sprinkle in the baking powder and 4 tablespoons of the flour, and pulse. You want to add enough bulgur or flour so that the dough forms a small ball and no longer sticks to your hands. Turn into a bowl and refrigerate, covered, for several hours.
4. Form the chickpea mixture into balls about the size of walnuts.
5. Heat 3 inches of oil to 375 degrees in a deep pot or wok and fry 1 ball to test. If it falls apart, add a little flour. Then fry about 6 balls at once for a few minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. mine kinda looked nuggetty but I'm sure you'll have better luck than I did Stuff half a pita with falafel balls, chopped tomatoes, onion, green pepper, and pickled turnips. Drizzle with tahina thinned with water.

Terribly sorry for so much pun, and for the massive wall. I assure you tis tasty :p

Thought I would share my own SK-themed recipe: Mini Jelly Cupcakes!

Ingredients:
8oz fresh strawberries
1 cup sugar + 2 tablespoons
1 cup powdered sugar
1 1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup butter
1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup milk
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 can whipped cream (you can use fresh if you want, I just like the shapes the canned stuff makes :3)

*Please note: you will need a cupcake/muffin pan to bake the cupcakes, but you will also need a cooling rack and regular baking pan of approximately the same size (you'll see why later).

1.) Wash and slice the strawberries. Place the strawberries in a bowl, toss with the 2 tablespoons of sugar. Set aside (this is called maceration--the sugar crystals will break down the strawberries).

2.) Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray/butter/etc. your cupcake pan and set aside.

3.) In a large mixing bowl, cream together the rest of the sugar with the butter until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time and continue mixing. Finally, add the vanilla.

4.) Sift together the flour and baking powder. Combine the flour mixture in with the creamed mixture a little at a time (the batter will be thick). Finally, stir in the milk until the batter is nicely combined.

5.) Return to your macerated strawberries: there should now be several tablespoons of strawberry juice. Evenly distribute JUST THE MEATY PART of the strawberries--we'll need that juice at the end--in the bottoms of each cup in the cupcake pan, and then evenly spoon the cake batter over the strawberries. Bake for about 20 minutes (the cupcakes are done when a toothpick comes out of a cupcake cleanly).

6.) When the cupcakes are done baking, remove the cupcake pan from the oven and carefully run a thin knife around the inside of each cup to make sure the cakes aren't sticking to the pan.

7.) Combine together the reserved strawberry juice and the powdered sugar--it will form a nice jelly-pink glaze.

8.) *This is the tricky part*: when the cupcake pan is cool enough to handle (but still warm), place the cooling rack on top of the baking sheet, then place the rack/baking sheet over the cupcake pan, and flip over the rack/sheet and pan together. If you have prepared your pan well, when you lift the cupcake pan the cupcakes should be sitting upside down on the cooling rack/baking sheet--if any of them stick, just carefully run your knife around the inside of the cups again to pop out the offending cupcakes.

9.) Again, while the cupcakes are still warm, evenly divide your pink glaze over the upside down cupcakes--use the knife to evenly spread it from the top to the sides. Any excess glaze will fall through the cooling rack to the waiting baking sheet underneath.

10.) When the cupcakes are cool and your glaze has set, top each Mini Jelly Cupcake with its own crown of whipped cream!

~Enjoy!
