Aromatic Loralora Wing


Aromatic Loralora Wings were the wings of a loralora bird made into a fragrant and sweet-glazed dish. After failing to purchase a loralora bird on the planet Batuu in 34 ABY, the Artiodac chef Strono Tuggs visited the birds' homeworld, Ketz, during a culinary tour of the galaxy and declared that the wings had been worth the additional effort, including a recipe for the dish in his third cookbook, The Ultimate Cookbook, in 35 ABY.

Description


Aromatic Loralora Wings were a type of fragrant, sweet-glazed wings made using the limbs of the loralora bird from the Colonies jungle moon Ketz. The wings were white meat while the glaze was brown, with a sliced, green garnish scattered over the top. They were edible to members of the Artiodac species.

History


Strono Tuggs failed to buy a loralora bird at the Creature Stall (pictured), but tracked them down elsewhere to make Aromatic Loralora Wings.

Having heard that loralora birds were particularly succulent, the Artiodac chef Strono Tuggs intended to purchase one such bird being sold at the Creature Stall in Black Spire Outpost on the planet Batuu. However, before he got the chance, the bird was freed from its cage by the local Julen Rakab as part of a distraction and escaped in 34 ABY.

Tuggs then convinced the stall's owner, Bina, to tell him where he could find more of the birds and then made sure to include Ketz on a culinary tour of the galaxy that he took after publishing his second cookbook, The Life Day Cookbook. Despite the amount of time, effort, and mileage it had taken him to taste a loralora bird, Tuggs believed the wings were worth the wait and included a recipe for them in his third cookbook, The Ultimate Cookbook, which was published in 35 ABY.

Behind the scenes


Aromatic Loralora Wings were created as a recipe for the 2023 Star Wars: The Ultimate Cookbook, a recipe book written by Jenn Fujikawa and Marc Sumerak. The out-of-universe recipe for the wings makes use of chicken wings, baking soda, vegetable oil, minced garlic cloves, minced ginger, tamari, mirin, honey, sesame oil, black pepper, and diced green onions.
