Welcome back, Geeky Gluttons, to another episode of Munchies & Minis!
For those just joining us, Munchies & Minis is a live Twitch cooking show where I make a tabletop or Dungeons & Dragons-inspired snack and then paint a miniature. To kick the first season off, I decided to start @RaineRysa‘s #52WeeksofDnD fanart challenge. Two weeks ago, we made lamb-topped toast for the challenge word “Dragonborn.” Last week’s challenge word was “Injury.”
My first thought was D&D podcast North by NorthQuest‘s first live show at MomoCon when Sylo and Val had to make “pasta of inflict wounds” for a cooking competition. They made a chopped up version of Drench Toast. I wanted to do something a little more thematic to the inflicts wounds spell.
The fifth edition handbook defines Inflict Wounds a first level necromancy spell, castable only by clerics, where you would “make a melee spell attack against a creature you can reach. On a hit, the target takes 3d10 necrotic damage.” Necrotic damage generally includes chilling and withering. So I decided that my ingredients would need similar properties.
For my base noodles, I spiralized cucumbers. Depending on your spiralizer, you might injure yourself unless you use it properly. Also, unlike wheat pasta, this stuff will help wither your waistline. I then mixed it in a vinaigrette containing white wine vinegar and soy sauce as their creation involves fermentation.
Keeping on my trend of drying, curing, and decay, I also included prosciutto, blue cheese crumbles, raisins, and nori. And of course, just like any good casting of inflict wounds, this dish is best served chilled with fresh mint.
