This is what we need more of, recipes based on the food you see in video games. Our sister (brother?) blog WOW (World of Warcrafts) Insider knows this too and has a regular feature based on the idea. This week it's Murloc Fin Soup!
I think I should try it because my local Shaw's has a special this week on Murloc Meat. Full recipe after the jump, including a handy translation on the foods so you know what to buy to make it.
Murloc Fin Soup4 chunks of Murloc meat
28 oz can of Murloc eyes
2 15oz cans Stranglethorn tomatoes
1 cup Goblin salsa
12.5 oz tomato sauce
1 cup Murloc broth
Hot spices
1 can Westfall corn
2 tbs lime juice
dash of pepper
crunchy Murloc Fins
shredded cheese and sour cream
Place all ingredients except the Murloc Fins, cheese and sour cream, in a cauldron over a low flame for 6-8 hours. 30 minutes before serving remove Murloc meat and pull it apart into bite size chunks with 2 forks. Return the meat to the cauldron and increase flame to high. Let the soup return to a boil and then serve.
To serve: place a hand full of crunchy Murloc Fins in your bowl and top with the soup. Garnish with the sour cream and cheese.
