The World of Warcraft (WoW,) operated by Blizzard Entertainment, is a Massively Multiplayer Online Roleplaying Game (MMORPG) with over nine million players worldwide. Players can create a wide variety of characters and train them in a variety of skills, referred to as "Professions"
One of the available game professions is *cooking.* This skill allows the player to create a wide variety of in game food items. The resulting dishes usually heal or restore the character in some way, but a few have other effects, such as turning the character into a pirate or ninja.
Of course, all of these recipes and food creations have been strictly virtual. While the character eats the "Curiously Tasty Omelet" or "Savory Deviate Delight" the player eats the microwave pizza. Now, things have changed.
The Original and Strictly Unofficial World of Warcraft Cookbook, by The Tauren Chef, brings over 60 World of Warcraft Recipes into the real world of the WoW player’s kitchen and dinner table. Dishes such as Goblin Deviled Clams and Beer Basted Boar Ribs are no longer just for the electronic characters.
The author, Guinevere, states that “The World of Warcraft Cookbook contains over 60 recipes, ingredient substitutions (since items such as "murloc arms" are difficult to find in most stores,) photographs, and complete step by step instructions for cooks of all levels.”
Another important point is that the photos in the WoW cookbook are those of the real dishes as they come out of the oven. Guinevere says that cookbook and magazine photos are very carefully prepared, glued, glazed, and look great, but are no longer food that anyone would want to eat. That’s not the case here. This means that the beginning chef can cook these dishes and have them look right, the first time.
The Real World of Warcraft Cookbook is oriented towards beginning chefs, but contains material suitable for more advanced chefs as well.
The Original and Strictly Unofficial World of Warcraft Cookbook is available for just $19.97 from the Tauren Chef website, http://www.taurenchef.com
