THIS EXPLAINS THE FISH JELLO.

[honeybreadbee]

As someone who eats pork jello (kocsonya) around the winter time, i really wanna know what flavor profile that fish jello dish had. Like ours is really just very garlicky, cold pork broth. Lots of skin, fat & cartilage rich parts of the pork (ear, tail, feet). Around 2 or more Heads of garlic, the strong european kind, not the big ?elephant? garlic.

& yknow it's pretty good it's a classic, traditional winter time dish. I gotta look up the hannibal recipe book maybe it's in there.

& to add to op's statement, in universe i don't think Hannibal would make objectively bad dishes, he's too prideful but as we know he loves pushing buttons & drama & leading people into traps. The "I'm not touching you!" game of the Baltimore (Toronto) bougie

[hannicanons]

in universe Hannibal knows there is no such thing as an “objectively bad” dish. He understands that taste is a matter of preference. He also understands that people are bound by the expectations of social niceties. Just the same as people will swallow some odd-tasting “rabbit” without question, they will choke down something directly in conflict to their own liking to avoid offending the chef. He is “emperor no clothesing” them with his meals. As they exclaim “ohohoho this meal is delicious” Hannibal is smirking a secret smirk knowing full well they don’t like it.
