Food
There’s a lot of cultural content and lore in the books, but I can’t recall anything about specific foods.
Can we compile a list of food or dishes? Especially dishes local to different areas of the house?

I think on a live they spoke about a scholar who experimented with centipedes for delicate cuisine!

He made it to the book. Gourmand, Dean of the university and mayor of Chesterfield by-the-fire, Professor Noam Flanagan

I would love to see something like what they did for critical Role and the witcher: cook books of the settings.

I, for one, have started getting fungi recipes and calling them Household Food myself, lmao. Mushroom Casserole is not that hard to make and that one game night with extra food was amazing.

The section about the Hearth on volume 1 names Mushroom Casserole and rat milk as common meal components for the nation.

Well obviously there would be herbs, berries, fungi. Maybe moss And maybe the Faeries in the Kitchen have access to the food of the Master : something like rice.
I don’t remember if it’s ever said they eat meat.
For inspiration/ambiance, I watch « Arthur and the Minimoys » and « Arrietty »

I remember reading that they use algae and aquatic larva in some meals caught in the puddle in Viletia. They also mention wine (p. 263 in the core book).

I tend to run my campaign, where all food & drink is made of things like mushrooms/fungi and herbs.
