I’m excited—and not gonna lie, a bit surprised—to be back with Part Two to what has become my Romanian Food and Recipes of Resident Evil Village series (click here to see Part One). Unlike the first, which features recipes displayed as a meal between characters Ethan and Mia, most of which aren’t referenced by name, the recipes we find later in the game via The Duke’s Kitchen have made my job a whole heck of a lot easier!

Here’s a quick and easy round-up of the six recipes featured in The Duke’s Kitchen that you can make at home. (No hunting required… unless that’s your jam. Then, by all means, hunt away!)

001. Pește Alb Cu Sos Marar și Hrean {Herbed Fish/White Fish with Dill and Horseradish Sauce}

Herbed Fish can apply to many different Romanian recipes, however, I’ve chosen to link it to the recipe most applicable to this blog: Pește Alb Cu Sos Mara și Hrean {White Fish with Dill and Horseradish Sauce}. If it weren’t yet obvious by my blog’s name, dill is one of the most popular herbs to use in Romanian cooking. And you can’t be considered Romanian if you don’t grow your own horseradish, or at least have a knob or two of it in your refrigerator.

002. Pilaf din Ficat de Pui {Chicken Liver Pilaf/Bird and Beast Pilaf}

Here’s another recipe that The Duke’s Kitchen doesn’t refer to by its Romanian name, leaving me a little leeway to share a recipe I think best fits. We know poultry (likely chicken) is included, however beast is a little less clear, especially since the in-game recipe requires poultry (obviously) and meat. Of course, you could make this recipe with two different proteins (chicken and lamb or pork, for example), I chose to feature a little more obscure variant: chicken liver.

003. Three-Flavored Mititei {Grilled Sausages}

Also known as Mici, Mititei have become a staple of a Romanian summer, and can always be found at a picnic. In Resident Evil Village, the “three-flavored” refers to the three proteins you need to hunt that make up these sausages: Fish, Poultry, and the generic Meat. Traditionally, Mititei is made with two proteins: ground beef and ground pork. Honestly, it’d be pretty odd to incorporate fish in this recipe, which isn’t very authentic.

Mititei are traditionally served with a yellow mustard and crusty bread.

004. Tochitură de Pui/Tocană de Mazăre cu Pui {Chicken and Pea Stew}

However, the American one is cheap viagra order considered less stimulating than the Asian ginseng. And finally these courses are extremely cost effective levitra cheap online when compared with the traditional institutes. A loved this generic levitra online long, relaxing foreplay coupled with kissing, hugging and cuddling may be a boost in your love life. Suffering from weak ejaculation is cialis online shop extremely harmful for men.

Tochitură and Tocană both translate to stew, but specifically, the word tochitură directly translates to “slow fried meat in fat.” (Sounds a bit like how I describe my favorite Romanian treat Jumări {Pork Graves}). My recipe includes green peas {mazăre}, which can easily be omitted if you’re searching for the authentic Resident Evil feel.

005. Ciorbă de Porc {Sour Pork Soup}

Both soups and pork make up a bulk of Romanian recipes, especially when utilized together. You might be wondering how many soups can be made with pork, and the answer is a lot. Especially when they’re packed full of veggies from a recent harvest. Ciorbă de Porc seems like the perfect recipe for those bleak and cold Resident Evil days and nights.

006. Sarmale de Pește {Cabbage Rolls with Fish}

Honestly, I had no idea sarmale could be made with fish. To be even more honest, with sarmale being one of my favorite Romanian dishes—so much so that it’s the feature on the cover of my cookbook—the idea of stuffing these cabbage rolls with fish isn’t the most appetizing of variations to me.

It does make me wonder if the sarmale on Ethan and Mia’s table at the beginning of the game is your traditional meat-stuffed, or are Sarmale de Pește…

I actually don’t have a recipe for Sarmale de Pește (though you can find my traditional Sarmale recipe, stuffed with pork and rice, in my cookbook here!), but I found a handy YouTube video for you:

I’m not gonna lie, I’m a little disappointed in the game developers for not including all the right accents in the recipe names; it seems like something simple to add a little bit more authenticity to the game. But I digress…

What do you think? Have I made the Duke happy?
