Even Witchers need to eat, and when you’re as proficient (and strong) a Witcher as Geralt of Rivia, you need to eat a lot. The monster hunter at the center of Netflix’s blockbuster fantasy-action series, as well as the popular series of video games and novels, is about to get a face and body swap as Liam Hemsworth takes over from outgoing star Henry Cavill when The Witcher returns for Season 4. But rest assured that Geralt will still have a huge appetite… for adventure.
With that in mind, Ten Speed Press is unveiling The Witcher Official Cookbook, a culinary tour of Geralt’s world with over 80 recipes that showcase the wide range of dining options available to Witchers and ordinary travelers. These meals come straight from the Witcher Kitchen, created by fans Anita Sarna and Karolina Krupecka, and are accompanied by the musings of a cartographer touring the Continent and its many food offerings.
The Witcher Official Cookbook is hitting shelves on Nov. 21, just in time for Thanksgiving feasts. But once you’ve polished off the turkey, stuffing, and sides, you’re gonna need ideas for a post Turkey Day meal. That’s why Yahoo Entertainment is exclusively presenting the following four-course Witcher feast, featuring a starter, main dish, side, and dessert.
Begin your dinner journey with a hearty bowl of barley and bacon, a specialty of the White Orchard Inn that’s mixed in with crispy pork pieces. The Golden Sturgeon offers a fragrant main course of whitefish fillets covered in a rich cream sauce laced with leeks and thyme. Aunt Lutka’s signature flatbread is the perfect side dish to the saucy main course, and finally, enjoy a basketful of Wedding Sweet Buns from the city of Oxenfurt to end your meal on a sweet note.
The Witcher Official Cookbook: Provisions, Fare, and Culinary Tales from Travels Across the Continent, by Anita Sarna and Karolina Krupecka, based on the novels created by Andrzej Sapkowski and video games developed by CD PROJEKT S.A. is available now at most major booksellers, including Amazon.
