====Puluhanni Green Smoothie===== |
|||
The planet [[Puluhan]] is known for it's invasive and toxic algae but mixologists of the sector have a new technique to make it palatable to the masses. Blending up the algae with a specialized enzyme the toxins are broken down into a mild psychadelic after 5 minutes, an alcoholic beverage in 20, and inedible slime after an hour. |

It is often mixed with clam juice, hot sauce, and a sprig of celery to make a '''Toxic Mary''' |

| ⚫ | Toto Ora is a fortified wine distilled from the blood of the [[Teuthemi Leviathans|Great Tahora]] usually mulled with spices and often spiked with various cheap and crude alcohols. No two batches are the same, varying wildly between brewers. While serving, each cup has a slightly different characteristic as they are poured, as well, drinkers are encouraged to add their preferred garnishes and last-minute spices to their cups. The last serving, containing sediments from the bottom of the barrel, is traditionally saved to start the next batch of Toto Ora. |

====Head Cheese Crostini==== |
||
| ⚫ | For the rugged Whai, preservation of food and flexibility in diet are essential to their survival. Canned cold-cuts such as head cheese and other meat jellies--made from rendering the gelatinous connective tissue and off-cuts of Tahora--ensure that all of the noble creatures are used. Tahora head-cheese may have a lightly smoked flavor added to mask a tangy aftertaste. Love it or hate it, head-cheese on toast is a quick and classic breakfast or mid-shift meal. |

====Kebakko==== |
|||
| ⚫ | Simply spiced meatballs served on a small skewer with a sweet and sour dipping sauce. The meatballs, a relatively common ingredient in sandwiches, wraps, stews and pasta dishes of the Whai, are raised to center stage with this elegantly uncomplicated dish. They were originally a Dynaean staple before the cataclysm and traditionally are made from either lamb or pork mince, breadcrumbs, onion, and spices. Whale meat and void-farmed protein are common substitutions when terrestrial mince is unavailable. |
||
====Mykyrokka==== |
|||
Blood pudding and dumpling soup made with various off-cuts and offal along with simple grains. |
|||
| ⚫ | |||
Also known as ''Kaihaukari'' or ''Kohoikori Delia'' in some Dynaean dialects, Sharkuterie, is a shared feast or potluck presented in celebration of a successful voyage or when Whai meet each other out in the depths of space. Combining their pantries of traditional Dynaean delicacies and a pirate’s plundered cargo a feast is prepared. Small, bite-sized dishes allow the whole crew to share the meal and exchange stories of their travels. In many respects the meal is similar to Tapas. |
