The crocus are in full bloom, hanging out with the lavender plants for a nice contrast. Our neighbor's honeybees must not have made it through our weird winter this year though as there were none in sight. Our mason bees have started to hatch so maybe some of them will show up.

I love the food ideas you made for Hollow Knight! Do you think you'll ever create more?

I've been thinking about making more for some time and even drawing remakes of several now that I've learned more about Artisan Gastronomy and the alternative ways in which certain ingredients were obtained. Some focused on Hallownest and others on locations in other kingdoms that I have been thinking about for a long time.

I guess at some point I'll come back with the promised Hallownest's Pancakes recipe.

See, now THIS i can go off of! Going with the main bugs I usually draw because they're my favorites <3 Tiso: Almost as much of a garbage disposal as Ardent, but does have his favorites. He loves savory foods, mostly roasted meats and some fatty fruits and seeds, but he would absolutely KILL for some honey tarts made by denizens of the Hive. He can make them himself, sure, but they're only the perfect balance of sweet, spongy, and savory if a bee makes it. Ardent: The true garbage disposal. They will eat anything. Yes, anything. They show favorites to just about anything sweet (including, apparently, the crystals covering the southern mountain peaks) and have a strong preference to Boofly steaks. That's... assuming Hornet can get to the damn thing before they eat it all, first. Hornet: By far the pickiest eater, she REFUSES to eat anything even vaguely plant-like (and in fairness, she usually gets sick if she eats just plants) and will also turn her nose up to most parts of an animal. She particularly enjoys the leg muscles, wing muscles, heart, some parts of the liver, and the ovaries and whatever undeveloped eggs are there when sectioning her meats out, and leave the rest to Tiso and Ardent. She regularly gets honey tarts from the Hive, and refuses to share them, as well as jars of honey. Really, if it comes from the Hive, she loves it. Is it because she grew up there for a few years? ....Maybe.

Where's The Beef?

Aloha kākou and Happy Aloha Friday. I always enjoy a good steak. Preferably a ribeye steak. Cooked medium rare on a charcoal grill using wood chips for that smoked flavoring. Just season the beef with salt and pepper on both sides of the slice of cow and place it on a smoken’ hot grill. Just to get those beautiful grill marks and render the fat down enough to flavor the meat through. Cooked just…

For the bug foods do you have anything in mind for what candy might look like? I absolutely love this kind of worldbuilding

Actually yes! I'd been working on it for a while in response to a follower regarding desserts and drinks.

Now, taking into account that Hallownest does not theoretically have all the resources that we have in our world, its menu of sweets and desserts is probably not very varied.

The "desserts" prepared by the Mosskins could easily be considered reserve foods.

Each of these prepared with what the Mosskin themselves can get in their territory without trading much with the bugs of the capital.

For their part, the mantises would be in a bad position. They don't have a very extensive dessert culture, as their resources are limited to just mushrooms and meat.

The closest thing to a treat that young mantids will be able to taste without leaving their territory would be sweet mushrooms impaled and soaked in mushroom wine.

The bugs of the City of Tears (The commercial point with the entire kingdom, in my opinion) would have a more varied culture of candy.

Its cold and humid climate would be ideal for the preparation of cold desserts such as cakes or sweets with honey, the cold in fact would help a lot to preserve and process many types of food.

However, after consulting with some friends ... I think that with the limited variety of resources for the preparation of novelty things like desserts, most of these would have a very high price and are probably sold in the rich zone / privileged area of ​​the City. Few of them would make it to places like Dirtmouth or Forgotten Crossroads.

These desserts would be reserved solely for the nobility, bureaucracy and royalty of Hallownest.

Although a very simple and easy to get candy would be cookies.

Easy to prepare, cheap to produce and very tasty. They would be the favorite candy of the larvae and children, since a trick to sell them faster is to give them fun shapes.
