Alhara
Alhara's extreme heat has made way for culinary changes to the side of Jana. Originally inspired by the classic gourmet found in the
Yedian Union, the Alharans have adapted to the lack of exact proteins and ingredients that they need as most colonists live in financially tight situations. Certain dishes involve whatever meats are hunted in the season with a side of hydroponically grown greens and refreshing sweet cacti fruit. Some of their gourmet dishes involve meals cooked on a Hikori hot plate and served accordingly, even some of the native bug wildlife is used for Alharian dipping sauces that are a popular choice in every colony. For the more financially unstable regions of Alhara, their meals are more humble and use the bugs for more than just a dipping sauce. Bugs, Pork,
Tuki Tuki are usually exported from
Orville's Respite to make a variety of hearty meat-kebab dishes ocassionally paired with their choice of cacti-related sides. Iced dessert is possible thanks to liquid nitrogen cooling devices and storage units. The indingenous people of
Krogs have also taught the smaller colonies their harvesting and cooking methods for the
Boulderdashes which have become an exotic meal in the more tourist designated places in Alhara.
Albard
Albard's harsh winter environments have not faltered the wealthy and luxirous nature of their finest gourmet dishes. In the heart of the Jahara cities are very finely produced fish-based dishes and traditional cold platters to thematically represent the weather that is shared by the colonists. The highest quality greens and aquatic plant life is used to keep these meals fresh and are sometimes even used as an apetizer for full courses. One of their most popular dishes that often flocks tourists is called the "Lulapolis Mix". This dish is made with small hints of citrus, spices, a bed of greens, a touch of two sauces of choice, whole shrelp, and thin fish cuts. This meal can be served fresh or be slow cooked over time to enjoy slowly as crunch is indulged with the flavors of the ocean. For the common colonist the dishes are much less fanciful and carefully considered. Often their favorite meals include a spring roll with seaweed and various meat fillings, a bowl of hot and creamy soup, and a side of imported grain goods. When bread or pasta is unavailable, the longer lasting alternatives is often rice or dried fish cracklings.
