Delicious in Dungeon: The Monster Meshi - COMPLETE

We've cooked our way through every floor of the dungeon, now we're LORD OF THE DUNGEON! What? that's not how it works? Cmon. 




Things I learned:

- The unique flavours of a whole lot of different meats.
- Grilling and frying might be the same thing in japanese.
- The fairies are better cooks than me
- Demon actually doesn't pair well with apple at all
- I like making a medieval style banquet
- You can either bake a pumpkin whole, or use it as a serving bowl, you can't have it both ways.
- I got slightly better at making rolled omelettes.

Favourite Recipe: 

#8: Freshly Stolen Vegetables and Chicken Stewed with Cabbage Accompanied by Plundered Bread


This was a lot of work, making bread from scratch while stewing cabbage and grilling chicken. But it paid off, this just tasted great, wonderful hot crunchy chewy textures. A homely feast to eat with your hands. I feel sorta bad picking a recipe with non-monster ingredients, but... well, it was still an interesting and unique recipe I think.


Least Favourite Recipe:

#2: Man-Eating Plant Tart



uhh yeahh, i beansed this one so hard. Turns out citrus peel makes everything unbearably bitter. And it didn't hold together at all. Should have made a quiche. I did however manage to scoop out most of the vegetables and dilute the fruity sludge with a curry sauce and end up making a really nice curry out of the leftovers.
