CANDY "He yelled something raucous and ribald. It had to do with "tastas" or "stick candies." These are not candies, incidentally, like sticks, as for example, licorice or peppermint sticks, but soft, rounded, succulent candies, usually covered with a coating of syrup or fudge, rather in the nature of the caramel apple, but much smaller, and, like a caramel apple, mounted on sticks. The candy is prepared and the stick, from the bottom, is thrust up, deeply, into it. It is then ready to be eaten." ... "These candies are usually sold at such places as parks, beaches, and promenades, at carnivals, expositions and fairs, and at various types of popular events, such as plays, song dramas, races, games, and kaissa matches. They are popular even with children." ... "The expression was sometimes used by men for women such as we." Dancer of Gor, page 81 NUTS "…vulo stew with raisins, nuts, onions, and honey." Tribesmen of Gor, page 47 PASTRIES "On the tray were assorted pastries, on the other was a variety of small, spiced custards." Nomads of Gor, page 238 "I shop for wealthy women," said she, "for pastries and tarts and cakes-things they will not trust their female slaves to buy." Guardsman of Gor, Page 239 RENCE Water plant used for food, paper or cloth. The pith (or center of the stem) is edible. Can be made into pastes or porridges. Also used to make into rence beer. "The plant has many uses besides serving as a raw product in the manufacture of rence paper…from the stem the rence growers can make reed boats, sails, mats, cords and a kind of fibrous cloth; further it's pith is edible…" Raiders of Gor, page 7 "In the morning, before dawn, she had placed in my mouth a handful of rence paste." Raiders of Gor, page 28 "In a moment the woman had returned with a double handful of wet rence paste. When fried on flat stones it makes a kind of cake, often sprinkled with rence seeds." Raiders of Gor, page 25 "I had carried about bowls of cut, fried fish, and wooden trays of roasted tarsk meat, and roasted gants, threaded on sticks, and rence cakes and porridges, and gourd flagons, many times replenished, of rence beer." Raiders of Gor, page 44 SULLAGE Common Gorean soup made with sul, tur-pah and kes. "First she boiled and simmered a kettle of Sullage, a common Gorean soup consisting of three standard ingredients, and, as it is said, whatever else may be found, saving only the rocks of the field. The principal ingredients of Sullage are the golden Sul, …the curled, red, ovate leaves of the Tur-Pah, a tree parasite,… and the salty, blue secondary roots of the Kes shrub…" Priest Kings of Gor, page 45 TUR-PAH "One of the principal ingredients of Sullage, a common Gorean soup. "The principal ingredients of Sullage are the golden Sul, …the curled, red, ovate leaves of the Tur-Pah, a tree parasite, cultivated in host orchards of Tur trees and the salty, blue secondary roots of the Kes shrub, a small, deeply rooted plant which grows best in sandy soil." Priest Kings of Gor, page 45 "The slave boy, Fish, had emerged from the kitchen, holding over his head on a large silver platter a whole roasted tarsk, steaming and crisped, basted, shining under the torch light, a larma in its mouth, garnished with suls and Tur-Pah." Raiders of Gor, page 219 |
