"This is a stack of 5 superiorly prepared Wild strawberry biscuits. The ingredients are finely minced guppy and well-minced Wild strawberry."

Delicious!

Post some examples of meals your dwarves have created.

I once made dragon roast, made of dragon meat, dragon meat, dragon tallow and dragon tallow.
It was worth more than most of my artefacts.

This was my most interesting one:

"This is a stack of 42 superiorly prepared Longland Flour roast. It is made of superiorly minced Longland Flour, exceptionally minced Longland Flour, superiorly minced Cow's Milk and superiorly minced Dwarven Sugar."

Sounds like my dwarves whipped up some sort of delicious desert there. Was worth a *lot* as well, though I can't remember the actual price.

Bah. My dwarves usually cook meals of 4 of the same thing. Nothing very exciting there.

My question is, how does one make a stew out of 50 gallons of Sunshine and a single Plump Helmet spawn, and call it "Plump Helmet Spawn Stew?"

And how does one make stew out of alcohol, anyways?  ???

Well, it's just like normal stew. You wouldn't call something "water stew" despite that being well over 50% of the stew in question. We call it beef stew, or lamb stew, because those are the things in it. In alcohol stew the alcohol takes the place of water :D

I agree with Urist. Steampunk is like Darth Vader winning Holland's Next Top Model. It would be awesome but not something I'd like in this game.
Unfortunately dying involves the amputation of the entire body from the dwarf.

That's some STRONG rum!

The one thing I feel is missing from Dwarven cooking is the bread they make in some stories.  You know, the stuff that is hard enough to double as a weapon if necessary.  I want to brain someone with a baguette!

Dwarf Bread. The recipe includes gravel.

Elves do it in trees. Humans do it in wooden structures. Dwarves? Dwarves do it underground. With magma.

Or vomit, really it's all the same when it comes to throwing.

With [SLOW_LEARNER], dwarves probably don't sit around and talk anymore. They just stand in the same corner altogether, staring at each other, sticking their bearded lips out trying to make sounds. And giggling when someone actually says a whole word.

Pratchett for the win!

Dwarf bread is basically inedible. To quote:
Quote from: Terry Pratchett, The Last Continent
"If we didn't have that bag of dwarf bread, we'd never-"
"Have been able to beat all the sharks to death?"
"Ah, you're a man who knows your breads."

Character (Dwarf by the name of Mad) was shipwrecked. He survived not by eating the bread. But by beating the sharks to death with the bread, and presumably eating them.
