Plain Grilled Beef from Innocent Life: A Futuristic Harvest Moon! Honestly, this would probably be a hated gift for me in-universe if I were an NPC. I don’t really care for beef on its own.
Southern Fried Rice from Harvest Moon: Tree of Tranquility and Animal Parade! This is a recipe I’ve made before just for fun because it is so good! The flavors all pair really well together.
Potato Soup from Harvest Moon: A(nother) Wonderful Life! This potato soup recipe was pretty good, although I’d wager it is hard to make a potato soup not be tasty.
Flounder Meunière from Doraemon Story of Seasons: Friends of the Great Kingdom! Flounder is a tricky delicate fish to handle for making meunière style, but if done correctly, is a perfect choice!
Hot Jersey Milk from Harvest Moon: One World! Heating up milk from jersey cows actually makes a little more sense as the milk fat tends to solidify when kept cold.
Cutlet Sandwich from Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma! I like that this game entry provides access to recipes that use meat, but this cutlet was actually a meat replacement product, ironically.
Fried Egg from across most series’ games! I had previously posted the fried ‘eggs’ recipe several years ago, which is featured in a few Rune Factory entries, but largely the non-plural recipe reigns supreme.
Watermelon Punch from Harvest Moon: Skytree Village and Light of Hope! I mixed together a watermelon lemonade with pineapple juice and club soda to make this tasty punch.
Yellow Curry from Harvest Moon: DS (Cute), Island of Happiness, and Sunshine Islands! Yellow curry happens to be one of my favorite curry preparations, and this recipe was no exception, it is delicious!
Steam Veggies from Rune Factory: Frontier! I had two in one week of recipes with just slightly off translations from this game. One more recipe completed though!
Cherry Shake from Harvest Moon 3D: A New Beginning and Story of Seasons! The cherries that I bought for this shake are literally so good, and even better paired with the ice cream and milk!
Warm Milk from Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar! It’s hard to convey warm via photo, but it certainly is a cozy late night beverage, especially with something sweet to pair with it.
Sweetie Potato from Rune Factory: 2! The recipe I found for these mashed sweet potatoes is really good! I’ll definitely be saving and making these another time.
Garlic Steak from Innocent Life: A Futuristic Harvest Moon! I should’ve added some more freshly grated garlic or a garlic sauce for dipping, but the marinade used garlic and the flavor came through! I would recommend more garlic though for garlic lovers.
Tomato Risotto from Harvest Moon: Hero of Leaf Valley, Tree of Tranquility, Animal Parade, + (3D) A New Beginning and Story of Seasons + Trio of Towns! I love all risotto and this recipe is no exception!
Macaroni and Beef from Story of Seasons! This is one of the few mentions of meat outside of seafood in the main series games. Of course the in-game recipe doesn’t call for beef.
Chocolate Pizza from Harvest Moon: The Winds of Anthos! This is a cute little recipe that I’m sure kids would absolutely adore. Regardless, it of course tasted great!
Good Juice 1 from Harvest Moon: A(nother) Wonderful Life! I opted for the most appealing mixture of juice options for this recipe, which was apple, orange, and carrot. I would still recommend a little less carrot to balance the flavors better.
