The Burning Crusade Classic is back, and fans are eagerly awaiting its release. As a long-time fan of the game, I’m excited to see the return of my favorite expansion. And what better way to celebrate than with food that’s straight out of the game? In this article, we’ll explore some of the iconic dishes and drinks from The Burning Crusade Classic, and even recreate a few at home.
First up is the classic Stormblood Stout. This rich, dark beer was a staple of the Stormbloods during their conquest of Dalaran. Its smooth, malty flavor pairs perfectly with hearty dishes like roasted meats and heavy sauces. To recreate this iconic drink at home, you’ll need:
- 6 oz malted barley syrup
- 1 gallon water
- 1/2 cup hops
- 1/2 cup yeast
Once you’ve combined the malted barley syrup and water in a large pot, bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and add the hops and yeast. Allow the mixture to ferment for several weeks before bottling and aging for another month. You can serve this stout straight from the bottle or on tap.
Next up is the classic Dalaranian Sausage. This savory sausage was a staple of the Dalaranian cuisine and was often served during feasts and celebrations. To recreate this dish at home, you’ll need:
- 1 lb ground pork
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 onion, diced
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp dried rosemary
- Salt and pepper to taste
Combine the ground pork, garlic, onion, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed. Form the mixture into sausages and bake in a preheated oven at 375°F for 20-25 minutes or until cooked through. Serve hot with your favorite condiments.
Another iconic dish from The Burning Crusade Classic is the Kunkka’s Krabby Patty. This juicy burger was a favorite of many adventurers and was often served at roadside stands. To recreate this dish at home, you’ll need:
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Buns, lettuce, tomato, and condiments for serving
Combine the ground beef, onion, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed. Form the mixture into patties and grill or bake until cooked through. Serve hot on buns with your favorite toppings.
Finally, we can’t forget about the classic Blood Elf Sangria. This fruity, refreshing drink was a staple of the Blood Elves during their reign over Dalaran. To recreate this drink at home, you’ll need:
- 1/2 cup white wine
- 1/2 cup brandy
- 1/2 cup lemon juice
- 1/2 cup lime juice
- 1/2 cup orange juice
- 1/2 cup grenadine
- Lemon and lime wedges for garnish
