The Lupin/Snape Lurve Community

Hey gang! After a long period of gestation, the Snupin Recipe Book Project is finally ready to fly! McKay is going to be organizing us, and Drusillas_Rain has kindly agreed to compile the recipes into a PDF booklet for us. So, please read over the rules carefully and consider participating. This project is meant for ALL members, so lurkers, we want to hear from you! ~~~ love, lore

The Snupin Recipe Book Project!

You may submit as many recipes as you like before the end of the event, which is November 30.

To submit a recipe, simply fill out the template below. You may post it either as a comment in response to this post or as a separate post in the community, although the mods would prefer separate posts to the community. You may post several recipes at once or in separate comments/posts.

Anyone who feels totally overwhelmed by posting can email their submission to Lupinsnape@gmail.com and one of the mods will post it for them.

If you associate certain foods/ingredients with a particular story or art, you can plug in those ingredients at Super Cook and get suggestions for recipes that use those ingredients.

If you're inspired by the recipe to create a new story or art of your own, you may, but the focus should be on the RL/SS-related recipe.

TEMPLATE:

Inspiration:
Title: [title of the story or art that you associate with this recipe with a link]

Author/Artist: [indicate whether the story/art is yours or someone else's]

Excerpt: [snippet of ~250 words from the story or a small thumbnail of the art]

Commentary: [brief explanation of why you associate this recipe with the story/art; no more than 500 words]

Source: [where the recipe originally came from - cookbook, magazine, your own original recipe, etc - if available]

Ingredients: [list of required ingredients with measurements]

Instructions: [cooking instructions]

Submitted by: [your fandom name or journal user ID]


In the end, don't get too hung up on the rules for this. If you want to do something outside of the guidlines, just ask a mod or go ahead and see what happens. This is a flexible challenge.

Title: Chocolat

Author: McKay

Excerpt: [Severus] didn't make or sell any kind of sweet but chocolate - but oh, what chocolate! There were moist chocolate cakes slathered in fruit. There were chocolates - dark, milk, and white - filled with creams of all different flavors from strawberry to vanilla to lemon and molded into various shapes, such as shells, flowers, or coins. There were slabs of chocolate mixed with crystallized ginger, lemon, orange, nuts, cinnamon, mint. The list of variations seemed endless. There was hot chocolate made with rich spices, even chile pepper. There were chocolate bars wrapped in gold paper. There were chocolate covered cherries and wedges of lemon and orange. And once a month, Severus made loaves of rich chocolate bread. He sold out of the loaves quickly, but he always set one aside to sell by the slice, and children came in with high hopes of being lucky enough to get one of those coveted slices, especially if their parents hadn't secured an entire loaf.

Commentary: I think the excerpt makes it pretty self-explanatory why I associate this recipe with that particular story. :D I made the chocolate covered cherries for my mother on her birthday, and she gave them a thumbs-up.
