I've always been curious about this. Do Guardians have no appetite due to them being resurrected from the dead? Or do they eat world materials? What about the other races? I'm assuming they could eat the other races.
- Vex wouldn't be too nice, seeing as they're metal, but their internal organs may be biotic, and therefore may be nutritious. However, I wouldn't risk eating them. You might hallucinate and see your own death. Or fluffy unicorns. Either one.
- Cabal would probably be the pork equivalent. With their masks off, they look like mutant pigs. The black oil they expel could be refined into some form of drink.
- Fallen would be tender. Probably taste like veal or chicken. The gas they expel may or may not be nutritious.
- Hive would be like eating a mandarin that you found under your couch. Dusty, mouldy and slightly crunchy. There probably isn't even meat on their bodies. The Ogres might be the best go. All of that pus and bile would surely benefit the body.
I've even prepared some recipes:
Spaghetti Cabalnara
Ingredients:
- 400g dried thin spaghetti pasta
- 2 tablespoons Guardian tears, semi-concentrated
- 4 Cabal thigh rashers, fat removed, cut into thin strips
- 3 garlic cloves, crushed
- 250ml thickened slag oil, drained from the cheeks and feet
- 3 native ferns, ends trimmed, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons glimmer dust, lightly sifted
Method:
Step 1
Cook pasta in a pot of boiling water until al dente. Drain. Return to the pot.
Step 2
Meanwhile, bring a medium pot of water to the boil. Add tears. Use a large spoon to stir water to make a whirlpool. Use a ladle to transfer to a plate. Cover with foil to keep warm.
Step 3
Heat a frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the Cabal meat and cook, stirring, for 4-5 minutes or until golden and crisp. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds or until aromatic. Add slag oil. Bring to the boil. Simmer for 2-3 minutes or until the oil thickens. Remove from heat and stir in the ferns and glimmer dust.
Step 4
Add the oil mixture to the pasta and toss until well combined. Divide the pasta among the helmets of Cabal which have been slain in battle
Vandal, basil & cheese pizza.
Ingredients:
- 200g mixed baby tomatoes, halved
- 250g baby spinmetal leaves
- 2 large wholemeal Eliksni bread
- 200g fresh cheese, straight from the Oversoul Throne
- 250g low-fat ether paste
- 70g Guardian's Best™ Basil, Ether Seed & Cumin Chunky Dip
- 6 slices Vandal fillet
Method:
Step 1
Preheat oven to 240C/220C fan forced. Place a heavy-based oven tray or pizza stone on the middle shelf.
Step 2
Place the spinmetal in a bowl. Cover with boiling water and stand for 1 minute. Drain and set aside until cool enough to handle. Squeeze out any excess moisture.
Step 3
Place each round of bread on separate pieces of baking paper. Spread with the ether paste. Top with the spinmetal, tomato, cheese and Vandal meat. Use the paper to carefully lift 1 pizza onto the tray or stone. Bake for 5 minutes or until golden and crisp. Repeat with remaining pizza. Spoon over the dip and season with pepper.
What do you think Guardians? What do we eat in the Destiny Universe?
