This is a good looking book。 Nice photos, interesting flavor combinations。 Most Star Wars cookbooks are full of food dyes and ordinary dishes with catchy names (seven Leia dip)。 This is definitely a refreshing change from that。 Some of the ingredients here might need to be special ordered, and there wasn’t anything I wanted to rush into the kitchen and try immediately。 But better than most Star Wars themed cookbooks。

Deb

Not bad, actually found a few recipes I liked and will copy out to try。

Vanessa

Got this cookbook for my 12 year old for Christmas。 We have begun working our way through the recipes。 Directions are easy to follow although I think you need a bit of experience cooking prior as they are written in very basic terms and need some background knowledge for you to accomplish them well。 Overall it is more about fun than the food although we have found some the kids like and some that once tweaked will be very good。

Lots of interesting choices。 I'll be sure to have some of these ready to serve when the next Season of Mando comes on, especially to serve the Mandalorian Stew and Uj Cake!

I was underwhelmed by this cookbook。 It started out with the backstory of a chef in the Star War world which was fine。 It broke out a number of dishes by the typical appetizer, entree, etc。 I thought a lot of the recipes were pretty boring。 It as basically common dishes renamed。 I wasn’t expect the cookbook to reinvent the wheel, but I thought there could be more creativity like the pasta recipe that turned rice noodles blue。 This cookbook just seemed like marketing for the new Star Wars land ju I was underwhelmed by this cookbook。 It started out with the backstory of a chef in the Star War world which was fine。 It broke out a number of dishes by the typical appetizer, entree, etc。 I thought a lot of the recipes were pretty boring。 It as basically common dishes renamed。 I wasn’t expect the cookbook to reinvent the wheel, but I thought there could be more creativity like the pasta recipe that turned rice noodles blue。 This cookbook just seemed like marketing for the new Star Wars land just opened in Florida and California。 They even had little blogs on the different shops/restaurants in the theme park。 Overall it was disappointing, and unless you are a hardcore Star Wars fan who has to experience everything, I’d pass on this book。 。。。more

I can't wait to try some of these recipes。 I love in-universe products and this cookbook is all in-universe。 There's a story about the chef and how he got working on Batuu。 Each recipe has a story and uses in-universe terms for the food。 (But the recipes themselves use regular words so you won't get confused。) It's pretty awesome and the recipes look great and very doable。 I can't wait to try some of these recipes。 I love in-universe products and this cookbook is all in-universe。 There's a story about the chef and how he got working on Batuu。 Each recipe has a story and uses in-universe terms for the food。 (But the recipes themselves use regular words so you won't get confused。) It's pretty awesome and the recipes look great and very doable。 。。。more

This book was around 3。5 stars for me。I loved the concept! I like that there are nice pictures for the recipes! I also like the unique perspective of of having a character in the Star Wars universe walk us through the recipes in Galaxy's Edge。 But overall I wasn't really wowed with the recipes。 They're mostly standard meat or seafood or recipes with space-themed names。 There weren't even fun pun names!

This is a very entertaining cookbook。 Love the point of view it is written from。 I have made a couple of recipes so far (including the Huttese Slime Pods!) and they have been very good。 My biggest complaint is the recipe for the Ronto Wrap is nothing like the one available for purchase at Galaxy’s Edge in WDW。

Chris

A cool cookbook with delicious looking food and a fun in story narration to entertain。

Amanda

Incredibly well themed and thought out。 I can't wait to try some of these。 Especially since some look easy enough to add to my normal weekly menus。 Incredibly well themed and thought out。 I can't wait to try some of these。 Especially since some look easy enough to add to my normal weekly menus。 。。。more

In all honesty, I liked this just for Cookie's "background" stories about the foods, plus the close-up photos of the finished dishes (even the "greeblies" stuff strewn about behind and in front of the food to make it more Star wars-y)。 I doubt it will ever be used by me as an actual cookbook (I did try some of the previous SW cookbook recipes, though)。 And, finished reading it on May the 4th!

This is the official cookbook accompaniment to the Disney Parks Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge locations。 Full disclosure: I am biased in favor of this cookbook because I had visited the Orland, FL Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge location before getting this, so the references to Ronto Roasters, Oga's Cantina, the Milk Stand, and Kat Saka's Kettle evoke specific pleasant moments for me。 Regardless of when or if you are able to visit a Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge location, however, this is a great gift for any S This is the official cookbook accompaniment to the Disney Parks Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge locations。 Full disclosure: I am biased in favor of this cookbook because I had visited the Orland, FL Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge location before getting this, so the references to Ronto Roasters, Oga's Cantina, the Milk Stand, and Kat Saka's Kettle evoke specific pleasant moments for me。 Regardless of when or if you are able to visit a Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge location, however, this is a great gift for any Star Wars fan who wants to bring a little more of a galaxy far far away into their home。 Additional disclosure: I have not made every recipe in this book (yet), but I have made a few and have read all the backstory content and introductions for each section。 The recipes I can personally vouce for include: - Pitmaster's Choice, - Roasted Chando Peppers, - Spicy Mandalorian Stew, - Polystarch Portion Bread, - Huttese Slime Pods, and - Gruuvan Shaal Kebab。 There are plenty of other recipes I am interested in trying, and there seems to be a little bit for every type of foodie。 Appendices include a list of Dietary Considerations and Measurement Conversion Charts, which not every cookbook has, so that's a thoughtful touch。 Recipe sections include: - Condiments, Sauces & Garnishes, - Sides, Starters & Snacks, - Soups & Stews, - Breads, - Main Courses, - Desserts, and - Drinks。 The backstory is nice, featuring the chef from Maz's castle who seeks new ingredients along the Outer Rim。 I also really like the production presentation, photos of the recipes, and quality artwork sprinkled throughout。 I think the introductions to some of the sections is a bit preachy, though, like we had to prepare random condiments and sauces before trying out hand at any of the main courses。 What a silly notion。 Just dive in and try what waters your pallet! Don't make your kid munch on Moss Chips when they want to make Sweet-Sand Cookies with you。 And don't labor over Chadian Dressing when all you want is a cool Bantha Chai! This is a fun book, and I recommend to every intrigued Star Wars fan。 Happy May the Fourth! 。。。more

In celebration of the final movie in the Star Wars Saga we had a dinner party using recipes from "Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge: The Official Black Spire Outpost Cookbook"。 The food was highly entertaining as well as being tasty。 The recipes were easy to follow and the pictures are fantastic。 It was such a fun and creative way to spend an evening together。 In celebration of the final movie in the Star Wars Saga we had a dinner party using recipes from "Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge: The Official Black Spire Outpost Cookbook"。 The food was highly entertaining as well as being tasty。 The recipes were easy to follow and the pictures are fantastic。 It was such a fun and creative way to spend an evening together。 。。。more

A fantastic cook book of themed recipes。 I can't wait to try them。 They will be fantastic for May 4th and Life Day celebrations or any time of year。 A fantastic cook book of themed recipes。 I can't wait to try them。 They will be fantastic for May 4th and Life Day celebrations or any time of year。 。。。more

No porg recipes? No pulled porg sandwich? Seriously? I desperately wanted to like this book。 I'm a big fan of Chelsea Monroe-Cassel's other cookbooks。 This one, however, misses the mark just because of the book's fundamental aim of making food with and for an alien palate。 The increase in rare/unusual ingredients, paired with the lack of effort in photography, lore, and naming in making any of these recipes look or sound appetizing, make it clear that this isn't really meant as a functional reci No porg recipes? No pulled porg sandwich? Seriously? I desperately wanted to like this book。 I'm a big fan of Chelsea Monroe-Cassel's other cookbooks。 This one, however, misses the mark just because of the book's fundamental aim of making food with and for an alien palate。 The increase in rare/unusual ingredients, paired with the lack of effort in photography, lore, and naming in making any of these recipes look or sound appetizing, make it clear that this isn't really meant as a functional recipe book。 It's a coffee table curio at best。 I appreciate the book's attempt at immersion in the universe by making it written by a character who is a chef in universe。 I just personally didn't find this character interesting or likeable。 Strono Tuggs, or "Cookie," guides you through the cookbook with intros that have the same bland, toothless amble as a stay-at-home-mom's recipe blog。 His whole schtick is that he thinks he's ugly (c'mon dude。 it's Star Wars。) and seems to have opposite notable traits of Chelsea Monroe-Cassel (doesn't "usually" like baking; doesn't "usually" work with honey)。 I found myself getting tired of the platitudes and just skipping ahead to the recipe because he was just namedropping Star Wars places/people and didn't have anything interesting or funny to say。 (With the exception of the Devaronian Souffle: "If the batter for this delicate delight ain't stirred at just the right speed, the whole thing'll explode in your face! Let's just say ol' Sama went out with a bang。 Hope you fare better。" I wish the whole book had this brisk style and sense of humor。) My biggest gripe with the lore comes from the fact that Cookie attributes his influence in this book to old holovids of Gormaanda, chef from the notorious Star Wars Christmas Special。 I didn't realize this at first, so the fact that Cookie makes such a big deal about his influence from this character made me wonder why this cookbook wasn't just written by her instead。 Turns out it was just another namedrop。I don't think I'll try any of these recipes。 But again, I don't think they were made to be functional, which is a shame。 Too weird ingredients, too much work (one drink recipe requires a chill time of FIVE! DAYS!)--I'm worried any dish would taste "off" and leave me wondering if I'd prepared it right at all。 If I do try anything, it'll be the cocktails--because even if those taste weird, they'll at least have the benefit of getting me sloshed。 。。。more

I looked through my friend’s copy of this book the day after I went to Galaxy’s Edge for the first time。 I enjoyed the Batuuan pot roast there and purposefully didn’t try the Endorian tip-yip since I knew he was gonna serve it for dinner。 The food I’ve mentioned is really good, and there are many more dishes in this book that I would like to try。 The pictures for the food are perfect。 And I love that the book is written from the perspective of Strono Tuggs。 And there’s a nice bit of continuity b I looked through my friend’s copy of this book the day after I went to Galaxy’s Edge for the first time。 I enjoyed the Batuuan pot roast there and purposefully didn’t try the Endorian tip-yip since I knew he was gonna serve it for dinner。 The food I’ve mentioned is really good, and there are many more dishes in this book that I would like to try。 The pictures for the food are perfect。 And I love that the book is written from the perspective of Strono Tuggs。 And there’s a nice bit of continuity between this and “A Recipe for Death” via a mention of how he was inspired by Gormaanda (from the Holiday Special)。 There’s also a Xizor Salad, which mentions that it might be named after a Falleen prince who might just be a legend。 (I hope he never becomes canon。 The character has not aged well and I never liked him。) The only other cookbook I’ve reviewed on here is a book of Bob’s Burgers recipes, and I think the variety and the pics make this Star Wars cookbook my preference between the two。 。。。more

This cookbook is fun。 The recipes are certainly unusual but in a way that I find entertaining。 There’s a spice rub that my husband and I love。 And I can’t remember the name of it but it’s something inspired by Naboo with beef and soy sauce that I thought was delightful。 It’s also fun to let guests in my home peruse my cookbooks, as this is just one amongst an interesting selection。

Decided on a whim to pick this up because it was on sale for Boxing Day and wow, am I glad I did! I haven't had the opportunity to visit the new Star Wars area at Disney yet, but this cookbook has stoked my interest even more! Before I read the intro stuff, I jumped right into a few recipes。 One condiment, one drink, and one main course--all turned out great。 The Parwan Nutricakes were so flippin' delicious that I've made them four times total in the couple weeks since I bought this book!

I'm still actively trying recipes, so even though I'm marking the book as read, I'm definitely not done with it。 I really appreciated the section in the back where you can look up recipes by vegetarian, gluten free, etc。 As a pescatarian who has vegetarian friends and one acquaintance with celiac disease, it's very useful。 Aside from the technical aspects of this cookbook, I really enjoyed the story of it。 Reading the intro material really made me want to visit Disneyland to experience the Black Spire Outpost in person! I also found it amusing and satisfying that the narrative voice continues through every recipe, giving a small description of each dish and how it fits into the Star Wars galaxy。 If you love good food and Star Wars, I don't think you can go wrong with this cookbook! 。。。more

Lots of interesting recipes, mostly things I wouldn't be interested in, but still cool to learn about what parts of the galaxy the dishes came from。 The stores, artwork and pictures were insightful and well done。 Lots of interesting recipes, mostly things I wouldn't be interested in, but still cool to learn about what parts of the galaxy the dishes came from。 The stores, artwork and pictures were insightful and well done。 。。。more

Similar to the Elder Scrolls book, this one's also pretty fun。 The cocktails section was a bit lame in comparison to the other book, but the rest is pretty interesting。 The blue pasta recipe is a lot of fun, being pretty standard as far as taste goes, but looking really crazy。 I found out she wrote some other thematic cookbooks, like a World of Warcraft and an Overwatch books, but the one I'm getting for sure is the Game of Thrones one she did。 That book series is so full of food descriptions th Similar to the Elder Scrolls book, this one's also pretty fun。 The cocktails section was a bit lame in comparison to the other book, but the rest is pretty interesting。 The blue pasta recipe is a lot of fun, being pretty standard as far as taste goes, but looking really crazy。 I found out she wrote some other thematic cookbooks, like a World of Warcraft and an Overwatch books, but the one I'm getting for sure is the Game of Thrones one she did。 That book series is so full of food descriptions the cookbook is bound to be pretty solid。 。。。more

I loved reading the stories that went along with all the sections and recipes, which is actually the main reason I bought this cook book。 I was not expecting there to be as many vegetarian recipes as there are。 I will definitely be making many of these recipes now。
