Yoda’s Root Leaf Stew

You don't need to crash land your X-wing in Dagobah to enjoy the Jedi Master's favorite dish.

Master Yoda spent his last days on Dagobah, enveloped in mist on the Outer Rim. On the swampy planet there’s one way to stay warm in the rainy weather and that’s with a piping hot bowl of Rootleaf Stew. Made from local flora and fauna, this vegan meal is flavor is boosted with a healthy seasoning of foraged yarum seeds, galla seeds, and scavenged sohli bark. If you don’t have access to those Dagobahian edibles, not to worry: we offer up some non-planetary ingredients as alternatives.

This substantial stew is warm, comforting, and sure to fill you up on those cold winter nights. Should it become too thick, simply release your lightsaber hilt, add the immersion blender attachment, and blend to the desired consistency. When you’re ready to serve it up to any visiting Padawan, add a cluster of oyster mushrooms, some pea shoots for crunch, and carrot chips for a little color.
