Klingon Cuisine: eat your food before your food eats to you

The Klingons’ high metabolism makes eating and drinking an important activity and Klingon chefs take great pride in their carefully-guarded recipes. Every part of an animal, inlcuding its blood, is used for food, especially those taken in a ritual hunt.

One must not stereotype Klingons as strictly raw-meat eaters. Their food is prepared in as many creative ways as any culture, with fruits and vegetables cooked, fermented, or marianated. Eggs and seeds are incorporated into lavish dishes. Drinks are often mixed with various fruits to produce delicate variations of flavor.

In a survival situation Klingons WILL eat their food raw, sometimes even live, and some well-known delicacies are “best served when live.”

Klingon Foods:

boqrat: A type of animal. As a food item, boqrat livers are stewed in their own blood. bregit lung: (bIreQtagh) A dish made of the breathing organ of any of a number of Klingon animals prepared in a manner that preserves its tough texture and blanched color. Durani lizard skins: A delicacy served dried and thinly sliced. This dish was discovered by a Klingon military unit stranded on Durani I without supplies for six months. Emperor’s Meat: A food dish where aged meat is marinated in a sauce made with animal parts, blood and/or fruit juices. fire skin: A food dish where animal skin is cut up and soaked in a strong liquor, then removing them and setting them alight just before serving. The pieces are eaten quickly while they are still burning. finova bean: A type of bean that is deadly if not prepared properly. Commander Kleevas was forced to kill his cook when a badly prepared finova dish killed both his gunner and first officer. glasht: Dark and leafy vegetable. Often served with a sauce. Think mushroom soup only with palm-sized slices. grapok sauce: a Klingon condiment, often used on gagh and racht. heart of targh: A traditional dish. Only the heart of the wild targh is eaten. targh are also bred for food but their hearts have been weakened by domestication and are not consumed. Hurgh: A food dish made with a marinated peb'ot fruit. Kayvak’s Food: A fermented meat dish named for a famous ancient warrior for now forgotten reasons. Krada legs: literally the limbs of an animal called a krada. It is usually served with grapok sauce. pipius claw: A traditional food dish. It is not served cooked but neither is it served live or just killed. Chefs carefully guard their recipes for tearing the creatures apart and marinating the various pieces in some sort of animal fluid to add flavor and chemically alter the texture. The pIpyuS has a hard shell and, while the specifics have not been defined, it may be some sort of crustacean Qaj: A type of animal. Its tail is served as a food. qagh: A dish of serpent worms, Gagh, is best served while as fresh as possible, i.e. while still alive, and it dies only when entering the digestive tract. In preparing the dish, the worms are fed diluted animal blood, which the worms find unappealing and will eat only when they are starving. Just before serving, the now ravenous worms are placed in a thick sauce. The worms eat the sauce, including an herb ingredient that is toxic to them and kills them in just a few minutes. Leftover qagh is served as a stew. When referring to the serpent worms themselves, before being prepared as food, the tlhIngan Hol word is ghargh. It is also served with m'ressa twigs. Some Klingons say that they don’t care for the taste of gagh, but like it for the fight it puts up when eaten. There are reportedly at least 51 distinct “flavor” varieties of gagh. qa'raj: A type of animal with claws that can be served as food in a number of ways. qettlhup: A sauce prepared by thickening chanDoq, a marinade. raHta’: Some type of worm similar to qagh that is also best served live. rokeg blood pie: A traditional Klingon dish, consisting of animal meat and blood baked into a pie. Blood pie is difficult to prepare properly and chefs protect the secrecy of their recipes fiercely. A blood feud was precipitated between the House of Rengat and the House of Dor when warriors of each house claimed to have the better recipe. Rokeg blood pie is Worf's favorite food, and because of this, his adoptive mother learned to prepare it. slimy tongue balls: A klingon food served as an entree. stuffed toDbaj legs: A Klingon food traditionally brought to the host on the QI'lop holiday. zilm'kach. (tlhImqaH): An orange fruit served in sections. Klingon skull stew: A stew consisting of an animal skull with various kinds of dressings.
