Oh Dead by Daylight, you weird lovechild of slasher movie aesthetics and Lovecraftian horror tropes. You are a game of teamwork and survival of the fittest, of both fearing death and relishing murder, of trying to fight a system in which you are eternally bound and trapped. You are also a game of teabagging and “please stop touching my stuff.”
This is the only recipe you learn from Pierre the general store owner in Stardew Valley. It doesn’t take too long, either: you only need a 3-heart relationship before he sends it to you in the mail! Even more surprising, this is one of Linus’s favorite treats. I didn’t think a man living in the wild would love such a bakery style sweet.
It won Jodi first place in a cooking competition. It’s one of Demetrius’s favorite gifts to receive. It’s a treat that almost every character in the game enjoys (except for a few and we’re not naming names). It’s: ice cream! Who doesn’t love ice cream, really?
This recipe represents a more traditional style of ice cream that requires a machine for proper churning. The eggs aren’t technically necessary, but I prefer the the richness they give the base; I also favor them for this version because it’s a variation on the ice cream recipe I learned in culinary school.
This ice cream method is probably the closest to the game, ingredients-wise. There’s only two elements: heavy whipping cream, which provides the fat which gives the ice cream its traditional smooth mouthfeel, and sweetened condensed milk, which provides the sugar that interrupts the production of ice crystals and makes the ice cream easier to scoop.
This style of ice cream is perfect for folks who can’t consume traditional animal dairy, and since coconuts are available in-game it felt appropriate to use them for a dairy-free ice cream.
Other than being delicious and full of fruit, neither give much information about the recipe. We know there's melon, but as the game doesn't specify what kind, we have to guess. My personal guess? Watermelon.
As a cook I'm lucky that the stir fry has some descriptors to give some direction for the flavor profile. We'll keep it simple: ginger and garlic as a base, sesame oil for subtle nutty flavors, and soy sauce and cornstarch as the base for the sauce.
