Stove Yumday: Turn Up the Heat in the Kitchen!

Stove Yumday doesn't come along every day!

…

What day? That's right! Stove Yumday! This ancient rural tradition involves making pile after pile of crepes for the village gobball.

If the gobball eats them all, then spring will be mild. But if the animal refuses to eat them all, you can expect the worst…

When that happens, excuses aren't far behind: "maybe the animal ate earlier", "your crepes are the problem", and yada yada yada… The truth is that it's a bad omen and spring might never come!!!

This event was inspired by the Meridia of this great day: Ruevas!

For your average Twelvian, the important part is to gorge themselves. For her, what matters is the taste.

With Ruevas, say no to bland foods and easily broken forks!

But… What About the Contest?

From Thursday, February 2 until 5:00 p.m. (Paris time) on February 13, a cooking contest will be held to celebrate this great feast day and its Meridia!

• Cook a dish inspired by a dish in WAKFU (the game or the series) that we can group under the theme of "Recipes from the World of Twelve in the Wakfu Era".
• Write up the recipe (a short RP description is also welcome).
• Take a picture of your creation. (Important: Your picture should be appetizing, even Instagram-worthy!)
• Post it all in this forum topic.

GOBBALL STEW

I learned this recipe from the innkeeper at the Crusty Gobball Inn (he's one of my mother's friends).

INGREDIENTS

• 3 gobbalrog steaks (1 kg of veal)
• 30 mushes (400 g of button mushrooms)
• 5 peppers (2 pinches of ground pepper)
• 5 rice (2 cups of rice)
• 20 cawwots (4 carrots)
• 1 cup of dry white wine
• 3 cloves of garlic
• 1 tbsp. flour
• lemon juice
• 2 onions
• 1 bay leaf
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 egg yolk
• 1 poultry bouillon cube
• butter, olive oil, salt

PREPARATION

1. Cut the meat into pieces and brown it in a bit of olive oil and butter in the bottom of a Dutch oven. Enjoy the sweet melody of singing meat…
2. Once nicely browned, sprinkle the flour over the meat and stir well.
3. Keep the fire going! Chop the onions and garlic. Add them to the meat and cook for a few minutes.
4. Now it's time for the carrots (sliced into rounds), the bouillon cube and the mushrooms to join the party.
5. After five minutes, deglaze with a cup of wine.
6. Take things down a notch. Add water until everything is covered, turn down the heat, and simmer for one hour.
7. Combine the sour cream, egg yolk and lemon juice, then add the mixture to the rest. Stir with a wooden spoon and let it reduce down by boiling for a few minutes until the sauce thickens.
8. Add the finishing touch by seasoning it with salt and pepper to taste. Enjoy your gobball stew with a side of rice!
