Hi there again! after revisiting The Book Cooks, I realized most of the stuff listed in the menus have pages prior to the blogs' creations, so I thought I'd be more thorough to provide what I listed in the previous post, along with some update! Again, if you haven't read the series, there's spoiler material.


 * 1) Black pasta and there's Black pasta Recipes; the Pink Gorgonzola Sauce provided in the recipe sounds delicious, and I guess it can kind of represent the red part I mentioned earlier... but I'm still slightly leaning towards the ink sauced I said, though I didn't manage to find a page for it on this wiki (I didn't make it up, I have had pasta with only the sauce being black but the pasta itself just regular yellowish colored (though tinted by the sauce of course)). Before seeing the pink sauce, I tried to think more about the red part; initially I also kept thinking about sauces (it just seemed like an obvious choice), but then I thought, well, why not throw in something German, since that's the original language the series was written in. Unfortunately the only things I know about German cuisine is that they are famous for beer and sausage (I hope I don't sound super ignorant or stereotypical; obviously there's so much more than that, but I just don't have the luxury to explore more) and the only German cuisine I have actually tasted is the Eisbein or the Schweinshaxe; so I had to do a basic level search... I'm more of a visual type person... and a lot of the stuff in the German Recipes category does not have pictures, so I had a hard time imaging if the food is what I'm looking for.  In the end, I went to the German Recipes Wiki instead lol; it doesn't have a lot of pages but I think I found stuff that can be incorporated: Slow Cooker Kielbasa and Beer and German Red Cabbage. NOW, I HONESTLY HAVE NO IDEA IF THOSE TWO THINGS GO TOGETHER, OR IF THEY WILL TASTE GOOD BEING IN AN INK SAUCE PASTA; so I really have to rely on you experts to decide! =D (BTW, having Italian cuisine in the I-hope-it-will-come-true-Inkworld menu isn't out of place, for some characters supposedly lived in Italy)
 * 2) I found no pages for the gyutan (not even on the Japanese Recipes Wiki), but there is a Tongue page and Tongue Recipes. I also found Tongue loaf, which just happened to be of German origin, however, if using this, I don't see how there can be a silver twist in it, and I feel the silver part really is crucial.
 * 3) There's Chicken Pie (see that's why I said I'm really not on any level good at cooking, I have no idea if this is similar or the same as Chicken Pot Pie). For the berries part, there's so many different berry pies, but I'm really looking for having the berries incorporated in the pie with the chicken, so again, really need your expertise on this, like whether or not it's doable and preferably not just edible but delicious at the same time. xP
 * 4) Originally I keep on thinking this one as a dessert, but since next one definitely fits into the said category, I thought, well, make it a drink then! Sadly, my knowledge about beverage is as much as my knowledge about food, which just isn't much. I found the Flaming drinks category on the Cocktails Wiki; although none of them is precisely what I'm looking for, the general idea is self-explanatory... lol Now what's left is to figure out if anything that's strongly honey-based can have the same effect! :3
 * 5) Mille-feuille has a page but it's just of French Food Glossary, no actual recipes for it yet.
 * 6) This is a new one! IKR? I already listed 5 but there's still one more! After reexamining what I listed, I belatedly realized how severely the potential menu LACKS of GREENS! Guh... the diet just seemed a bit unbalanced. So I thought, since a certain character is kind of of Arabian origin, let's do that! I have never tasted any Arabian cuisine, so I'm virtually clueless. I can only narrow down to Arabian Salads, but which specific Arabian salad? That again I'll leave it to you professionals to decide! xD

So yeah... I hope this isn't too bothersome. If it isn't obvious enough, I really wanted the trilogy to get a menu from you! <3
