‘The Elder Scrolls: The Official Cookbook’ invites you to feast on Tamriel’s dishes

Bethesda will release a cookbook based on the food of The Elder Scrolls series in March, which will bring the food of Skyrim, Morrowind, and the rest of the continent of Tamriel to kitchens in the real world.

The Elder Scrolls: The Official Cookbook is written by Chelsea Monroe-Cassel, who also authored cookbooks based on the Warcraft and Game of Thrones franchises. The new cookbook, spotted by fans over the holiday weekend, is now available for pre-order.

The cookbook will feature a hard cover and measure 8 inches by 10 inches. Its 192 pages will include over 60 recipes, including the previewed Saltrice Porridge that uses white rice, water, milk, honey, salt, vanilla extract, and various toppings as its ingredients.

According to the cookbook’s description, other recipes that will be found within include Apple Cabbage Stew, Sunlight Souffle, and Sweetrolls. There will also be dishes from the Nords of Skyrim, the Bosmer of Valenwood, and the Khajiit of Elsweyr.

Fans will be able to pre-order The Elder Scrolls: The Official Cookbook for $35 on the official Bethesda online store. However, the cookbook is being offered for only $16.39 on Amazon, for a 53-percent discount, with the same expected shipping date of March 26.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim director Todd Howard told Geoff Keighley at Gamelab in Barcelona, Spain last July that Bethesda will keep releasing the game to more platforms because players keep on buying it, even though it was originally released way back in 2011. The Elder Scrolls: The Official Cookbook might not be on the same ground as Skyrim for the Nintendo Switch, but it shows that the franchise still maintains its popularity over the years, as the cookbook is now among the best sellers of Books at Amazon’s Games & Strategy Guides section.

While whipping up Tamriel’s dishes once The Elder Scrolls: The Official Cookbook is released, fans of the series will already be looking forward to The Elder Scrolls VI, which Bethesda confirmed at its E3 2018 press conference. The location of The Elder Scrolls VI was the first thing that the studio decided when planning the game, but Howard did not provide any further information. Unfortunately, it may take years before Bethesda reveals where the franchise will go next.

The Elder Scrolls Online’s 2023 updates bring players back to Morrowind

Following Xbox and Bethesda's Developer_Direct and a dedicated livestream for The Elder Scrolls Online, we learned that the MMO's 2023 updates are all set in Morrowind. Falling under 2023's Shadow Over Morrowind banner, the first two pieces of DLC in March and June will see the addition of new PvE dungeons and the first new playable class since 2019. 
While Morrowind is most famous for being the titular location of the third Elder Scrolls game and 2017's The Elder Scrolls Online expansion, ZeniMax Online Studios teased that some of the areas featured in this expansion haven't been seen since the first game in the series. The player's first taste of this new Shadow Over Morrowind content will come with the Scribes of Fate DLC in March. Scribes of Fate adds two four-player PvE dungeons to the MMO. One sees players fight the Scribes of More in Scrivener's Hall, while the other will have them take on Bal Sunnar.
Scribes of Fate launches on March 13 for PC and Mac players and on March 28 for those on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.

The more significant update will be The Elder Scrolls Online: Necrom chapter, releasing on June 5 for PC and Mac and June 20 for consoles. The Elder Scrolls Online: Necrom will add 30 hours of new story content set in eastern Morrowind, two new companions, and a new Arcanist class. Arcanists utilized a variety of offensive and support magic, most of which is based on the powers of a Daedric Prince in Oblivion. For fans of Morrowind and this MMO, it's clear there will be quite a lot to sink your teeth into this year. 
The Elder Scrolls Online is available now across PC, Mac, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
