Broiled Hammerfish

Broiled Hammerfish was a seafood dish created by the Artiodac chef Strono Tuggs when he visited the Mid Rim planet Glee Anselm during a culinary tour of the galaxy that he took^[1] between 34 ABY and 35 ABY.^[2] He created the dish to try and improve relations between the world's two native sentient species—the Nautolan and the Anselmi—using fresh-caught hammerfish from the oceans where the Nautolan dwelt and glazing it with a sweet sauce made using ingredients from the islands that the Anselmi inhabited.^[1]

The Broiled Hammerfish proved popular with tourists on the beaches of Glee Anselm, but Tuggs admitted that it probably was not enough to reunite the feuding natives when publishing the recipe for the dish in his third cookbook, The Ultimate Cookbook, which was published^[1] in 35 ABY.^[2] He acknowledged, however, that it at least could not make things worse.^[1]

Behind the scenes

Broiled Hammerfish was created as a recipe for the 2023 Star Wars: The Ultimate Cookbook, a recipe book written by Jenn Fujikawa and Marc Sumerak. The out-of-universe recipe for the fish makes use of cubed salmon, tamari, honey mirin, sesame oil, garlic cloves, minced ginger, black pepper, minced green onion, and cooked rice.^[1]
