5 romulan recipes

Romulan Lucernae is a DIY tangerine oil lamp, not a dish. Hollow the fruit, wick the pith, fill with olive oil, and light for a warm citrus-scented glow at the dinner table.

Hearty lentil soup with bacon, shredded carrots, celery, and onions in a beef broth base. Simple ingredients, big flavor, and ready in about an hour.

Acetaria: hearty four-bean salad with knackwurst, scallions, and a sharp garlic-parsley vinaigrette. The Romulan-style legume side from Star Trek lore, served chilled.

A big-batch yeasted bread enriched with sour cream, butter, and molasses, studded with golden raisins and walnuts. Makes 4 loaves that freeze beautifully.

Fork-tender beef chunks simmered in apple cider with dried apricots, raisins, and mushrooms for a sweet-savory stew with rich, fruity depth. Serve over buttered rice or parsley potatoes for a cozy, satisfying supper.
