Please use this thread to discuss the Elvenar Recipe Contest.
Based on the current entries I'd say you have a good shot at winning!Wow, no one's participating yet? I just saw it today. I'm going to have to get my thinking cap on. The boys tell me I'm a great cook (they're prejudiced because they're the ones who have to eat it, lol). I'm going to get in before the deadline, I think. This sounds great!
What about those of us that are a complete mess and a danger in the kitchen? Can we make digital recipes and win a pixel apron for our avatar? I think it would look good on my owl.Wow, no one's participating yet? I just saw it today. I'm going to have to get my thinking cap on.

That's what I thought, Fayeanne. I may be wrong though. But I'm not going to waste good ingredients without being able to eat them, lol, so that's what I'm going for.Wait, does the recipe have to be for actual edible food?
I think so too.Wait, does the recipe have to be for actual edible food?

You can reuse something. I'm not going to be hunting to see if it was submitted in a prior contest. Just remember it must be original to you and pertain to Elvenar.Having created a couple of Elvenar recipies already I'm wondering if they can be reused or do I have to come up with something new? I can do that, but the left over doughnut cake is so good.

I'll allow itI wonder if "brewing" counts as "cooking" because if so... well. It's an idle thought, really, but...
STRAWBERRY ALE
By 'original to you', do you mean that we have to entirely invent the recipe (as in, can't use one out of a cookbook), or just specifying that we have to make it from scratch ourselves and buying a cake from a bakery doesn't count?Just remember it must be original to you and pertain to Elvenar.
Create the end result on your own (you can use an existing recipe) you cannot copy a picture from the internet and paste it as your own entry. If a portion of your recipe involves a purchase from a bakery, that is fine, but if you're having a bakery make your entire entry, then it would be hard to provide the recipe to recreate itBy 'original to you', do you mean that we have to entirely invent the recipe (as in, can't use one out of a cookbook), or just specifying that we have to make it from scratch ourselves and buying a cake from a bakery doesn't count?
I watch cooking shows on a regular basis and I've often seen chefs "inventing" new recipes by simply replacing an ingredient with a similar one. (Like using Hoop cheese instead of Farmer cheese.)I just suddenly had a fear we were meant to completely invent our own recipes, and that sounds hard.
Uh...said by the same woman who, earlier in this thread, was involved in this convo:Wouldn’t be a problem if you didn’t rely on those “book” things so much!

Probably not the best place to make your case about the uselessness of books...I feel like that’s what happens when I try to cook.
