yooo those look amazing! i plan to make the stir fry too. there's only a handful of recipes my extremely picky mom will eat, but even then she hates mushrooms so i have to think of what alternative i can include, lol
even so i like to try things as the recipe states so i can make some changes if there's something i don't like. i wanna give the intended recipe a shot

Made Farmer’s Lunch for brunch today. I loved the omelette (even tho it got a little darker than I intended) but I’m not going to lie, I don’t care for the parsnips. They weren’t awful but it’s not my favorite vegetable. If you like parsnips then you’ll probably like it. Personally, I’d rather it be a mix of carrots, sweet potatoes, beets, and parsnips… but then it wouldn’t be like the game lololololol.

I made the survival burgers, but didn't get a pic. We quite liked them, the finished flavor profile is similar to falafel. It's a pretty high effort for four patties, so when I do it again, I will double the recipe. My wife made the carrot ribbons, and we had them with a radish salad for dinner last night.

Oh man, looking at these photos is making it hard not to salivate too much.
I'm gonna try some recipes as time permits now that I have a copy of the cookbook myself.

Whaaaat, these look absolutely amazing...
How close would you say they stay to the original recipes? Obviously they're too simple to make 90% of the actual dishes but I'm pretty sure they don't incorporate anything that's explicitly not in the game like non fish meat

My first attempt at a recipe: the Fruit Salad! (Note: I had to substitute the vanilla bean pod for extract and the apricots for peaches, shame they don't have the latter fresh in-store)
I loved how it turned out. The syrup may have been a little less viscous than I expected and I had too many honeydew balls, but there's enough liquid essence at the bottom of the bowl that most of this can soak and absorb the syrup.
The peaches are the best part of this dish overall, and I have so much left over I'll be feasting for days on this!
I'll be making more as time and budget allows and I promise to share more pictures when I can. (Turns out, a lot of the recipes are not very economical, especially the "strange bun")

Perhaps peanuts or cashews introduced a little bit later to the stir fry would make an approximate substitute. Can't start them in too early or they will come out too well-done

From the kitchen of Umbra, I present my attempt at Mango Sticky Rice.
It was a ride to make. The cheesecloth I had to use was tricky to handle and made it hard to get the clump of rice out of the steaming pot on top of its stickiness keeping it in, but it was so fun and tasted great. Family came over to try it and they loved it, sans a really texture-picky and highly autistic brother.
This was also my first time ever having coconut milk and Thai sweet rice.

UPDATE: when the recipe says "serve immediately" it means it. I had 2 servings of leftovers which I thought I could have later after quickly nuking the rice, but it turns out, the coconut milk residue and sweetness in the rice does not keep well as a leftover. Texture, taste, and quality are all off if it gets cold and doesn't get any easier to stomach after microwaving the rice for a quick reheat. So if you ever make your own Mango Stick Rice, be sure to eat it all and have enough people around who want some.

The bruschetta.
I didn't have the means to bake the bread from scratch, so I substituted it with a pair of gluten-free baguettes. They made the dish a lot more filling than expected, and while I don't normally like tomatoes by themselves, the salt, garlic, oil, and basil really punched it up.

Bean Hotpot.
Couldn't get fresh dried beans, but the canned beans worked just as well. And despite some close calls with ingredient timing, the sweet and sour sauce, medley of beans, and the potatoes on top made this a very filling and hearty dish.

Stuffing.
The first of many dishes my mom and I will experiment with for this year's Thanksgiving feast.
Half with sourdough bread, half with gluten-free country bread. Unlike the usual store-bought pre-made stuffing my mom usually makes for Thanksgiving with bread, butter, and fixins, this uses all that fresh, plus apples and dried cranberries to make it a little tangy.
It also featured blanched hazelnuts which I think give it a sweetness touch.

Autumn's Bounty. A smoky sweet potato and pumpkin dip.
I just had time for the dip by itself tonight. Tomorrow, it will be garnished with pomegranate seeds and whatnot and I will also include the Vegetable Medley and Red Plate together. It'll be like a charcuterie. Among the key ingredients of this dip: pumpkin, sweet potato, garlic, and tahini.
The tahini made this dip have a lot in common with hummus. And I suppose it could be exactly that: a pumpkin and yam-flavored hummus.
