Hello there, as a guy in Norway I can tell you why there ain't that much of nordic recipes in the book. It's because there ain't much that is grown here and the cuisine is very lacking as a consequence of that. Most people here in norway don't really eat "nordic cuisine" to be honest and I've had the same experience when I was in sweden and denmark. The last one has good pastry and baking culture though. But yeah, ain't much to see here in terms of food that is local.

Makes sense Tyr is the narrator, In the lore he’s one of the few gods confirmed to visit other pantheons makes sense for the non Norse foods

This series is SUCH a winner - there's so many novelty cookbooks out there that I just can't buy without hearing if the recipes are any good. Here's hoping this series sticks around for a LONG while!

The addition of asian cuisine is probably no accident. In the post game, when you see Tyr, he's doing some Tai chi exercises or movements, or sitting in ways traditional to eastern cultures. The Devs hinted that the next God of War game is gonna go east, either to India for Hindu myth, China for the Tao/buddhist/confusionism blend that Journey to the West gave us, or Japan for shinto myth.

I really appreciate you showing off results of attempts that are less than ideal! Cooking is about enjoyment and it's ok things something don't come out well.

I think the biggest endorsement you can give of a recipe is literally bouncing with excitement after trying it, tbh.

I made the pretzels and the meatballs with the potatoes, it was delicious, especially that Jotunn spice 🤤

When you say you suck at baking all I can think of is the Adventure Time quote "Sucking at something is the first step to being sorta good at something."

yeah, that cheese filling was far too watered down. Next time, take that apple and lemon juice and reduce it by half gently on the stove to concentrate it and remove the excess moisture. You can also just use a single tablespoon of frozen apple juice concentrate and 1 tbsp of lemon juice and a pinch or two of lemon zest. This keeps your cheese filling firm. I'd also recommend using the leftover dough to layer on top of the original dough and build up the "wall" around the filling. Just brush the edges down with butter and apply your dough sheet strips.

After traveling to New York to make friends with turtles, almost loosing my sanity in innsmouth to a shouggoulash, barely surviving an Island full of prehistoric killer-geckos and visiting the four Nations... I'm going to the nine realms for more recipes!

Bro, that was the smoothest Segway to an ad that I have ever seen

I love cookbooks, especially novelty ones; I read them like normal books and I spent hours pouring over the art. It's nice to get a review of which gaming cookbooks have good art/flavor text before I buy them with the added bonus of getting a review of the recipes too!! Thanks so much for these!

Even though the tarts didn't come out perfect, they still looked SUPER yummy!

I feel like using the Dwarven season blend on wild game, slow cook it until it is fork tender, and make the juices in to a nice thick gravy somehow. Or even make the seasoning into a glaze by adding some melted butter and maybe a bit of brown sugar.

Maaaan I was seriously hoping you'd cook those really cool looking potatoes in the cookbook! The hasselbackpoteters! They look so amazing. They do seem basic though so maybe not too fun to cook

2:03 if the cookbook is a journaling of all of the foods Tyr tried while traveling then it’s not really gonna be what Kratos and Atreus are eating lol so that explains why there’s different influences besides Norse, it’s from different REALMS

What I'm wondering, out of all the cultures they chose (to represent the Nine Realms, I guess) - they ignored greek recipes? When Kratos, the main character of the series, is greek? Edit: Revoking that statement, as there seem to be greek recipes, I just didn't notice them.

I think the tart would have come out better if you popped the cheese mixture in the fridge for a few hours? The quail looks really fun to try!

I feel like they could have gotten a lot more mileage out of the god of war series if they did include recipes from the entire series. Originally Kratos himself is from Sparta. I would have loved to have seen some nice fusion work as well between Greek and Nordic food as well. I guess I can only dream.

1:58 I was really surprised to see Aish Baladi being one of the recipes in the cookbook seeing how its the name of bread here in Egypt lol, not sure if this was a hint for the new games, or just the cookbook adding middle eastern type dishes as you said, but anyways really cool to see it randomly like that lol.

Ok MisoHungrie, I have big flavor for you. I'm a FNAF fan and I really like those horror games with animatronics and lore within. And it was surprise for me there was released an official FNAF cookbook. Could you make review of this cookbook. I'm really curious about this cookbook. If there's pizza recipe, cake or exotic butter?

Glad your still going at it man, i love this series of videos a lot. Absolutely deserve the growth of the channel and more sponsors.

I just found your videos and have been binge watching them. I was so excited when I saw this upload. I’m also playing god of war for the first time!

Always a good day when I see you upload. Great job as always keep it up can’t wait to see what’s next.

I'm so excited you reviewed this cookbook! I just bought it and I really like Rosenthal's game cookbooks in general.

Looks good 😍. I do like how you show us your mistakes still with the tarts. We can all learn from it. Also keeps it real, mistakes can happen to everyone in the kitchen and sometimes it's just so frustrating. I'm sure they still tasted good!!

As you described what you were putting on the lamb, I knew it would be good. It sounded so good and richly flavorful!

I always love that you always include your experience with the source material while introducing them in your intros! Makes me wonder if you only do these cookbook reviews for games/shows you're familiar with, or do you research them before reviewing any of their cookbooks? If it's the latter, that's really an amazing dedication!

Everything with the food is outstanding as always, but I gotta give props to that ad transition. Got a serious chuckle out of me.

I think this cookbook looks amazing!! The sausage roll in it looks crazy and fun to make and everything sounds so delicious

"midgardian roast quail" wasn't that the levitation spell from harry potter?

What a great video! I recently bought the Halo and Game of Thrones cookbooks thanks to your videos! I'm loving the food so far Can't wait for more videos

I agree this feels like the setting to focus on Greek and East Mediterranean dishes with maybe a slight touch on asian dishes before going into Nordic and Germanic inspired dishes. If anything it's a spice guide for more exotic meats like quails and lamb which more people should try out if they want more advanced cooking ideas.

Literally checked in to your channel last night to see if you had done something recently and i had missed it! Don't have time to watch this at the moment but will watch it tonight!

Hey Miso! Great video as always. This book looks super interesting. For the goat cheese tarts, I probably would've popped the tarts with the filling only in the fridge for a couple hours to firm it up a bit. I also wonder if the pressure from brushing the honey butter on the apples caused some of the spillage as well, so maybe tossing the apples in the honey butter before putting them on top would've worked better? Though, that would get pretty sticky to work with, so another idea would be to heat the honey butter so it's easier to drizzle/pour on top of the already placed apple slices. Not sure which would work better 🤔

yooo love your videos

5:30 The funniest thing about this Recipe is that canonically no one in the game God of war 4 knew what olives were

I never would have expected God of War to have a cookbook and such a good one at that. All of the recipes look delicious and that Freakin Gratitude in particular had me salivating.

Loved God Of War Ragnarok, so I might pick this up! I've been wanting to cook more food from Scandinavian culture and cultures from the surrounding area anyways, so two birds, one stone! I wonder if there are Egyptian recipes in there, too. If the book is based on Tyr's travels, he did travel outside of the Norse mythos into the mythos of places like East Asia, North Africa and (of course) Greece - so it could explain some of the Eastern dishes being presented. I'll just have to get the book myself and chew through it.

“Time to watch MisoHungrie” Friend: “Where?” “In the direction of MisoHungrie”

We might actually be able to see Asian gods in a future series too Since the first dish here is one of Brock's being called f***in Graditude might make sense I think In my mind I think Tyr would write as it as Freakin Gratitude given how chill he is

I made the apple tarts the other day and they turned out amazing! my mom wasn't a fan of the goat cheese tho so I think next time I'll add a different cheese to lower the goat taste lol

I'll try the lamb with a glass of viking blod mead. Good video miso.

That was the smoothest transition to the sponsor ever, lol.

"i also might've over cooked these" * holds up quail that is darker than greece after kratos kills helios *

I wish you tried the food as you cook so it's at it's freshest

Me: *finally playing gow* me: I love this game, I wish I had some food for this game MisoHungrie: hold my friggen gratitude

Thank you for another video :) Have you thought about doing an episode on the sandwich recipes in pokemon scarlet and violet?

Recently had a toss up between the assassins creed cookbook, elder scrolls cookbook, and this cookbook…. Really wishing I’d chose this one now.

The reason it did not rise because you twisted the dough cutter which made it flat when you puff something up dont twist it when cutting the dough

Great video

This looked amazing but I was sad that the dwarvish mix had nuts. But I get it you can't always leave nuts out or substitute for nuts.

I'm so happy Broks recipe was so good

Yo this cookbook is genuinely good

The proteins of chaos , the carbohydrates of olympus that is all I need

Ok to up your pastry game you should try the following 9Surprised they didn,t say this in the explanation) First after making you filling refrigerate it to make it firmer. 2, shape your pastry shell then put it in the freezer for a good 30 minutes. Prep your apples. Put the filling on the partially frozen pastries, put the apples right away season and put in the oven it should technically come out a lot better.

Can you review the Fire Emblem Three Houses unofficial fan cookbook: Three Courses? It's perfect timing with the new game coming out soon! I love your videos 🥰

Tyr is the nordic god of war but he's also the nordic god of judgement

Agreed since this is coming from tyr,s travels thru the norse word nordic recipes should take center stage

Fantastic video! 🤣

Freakin Gratitude looks actually delicious

I made a Thai recipe for quail once, where you mince the bones along with meat into a paste, and eat it all together

I really wanna try the sausage they had

oi my boy taking sponsorship money, slowly getting better at making food and video editing. frickin' nice

You should try the stranger things unofficial cookbook if you have the time. I know it's not a game but I figure a themed cookbook nonetheless. Happy new year and can't wait to see what you cook

God that Lamb looks like the most delicious thing i have ever seen in my life

MisoHungrie can you make Heisenburger next please, I’m sure Waltuh would help

Another cookbook review? Nice

I think maybe the "peanut butter" was just from grinding up the nuts too much. Possibly the recipe meant more like a few pulses in a food processor, or ground a bit by hand in a mortar. Hopefully just as delicious, though!

can you do zelda cookbook if it exists? LOVE THIS CHANNEL ITS SO CREATIVE KEEP IT UP👍👍

It never occured to me that Brok ate that animal xD

The nuts are likely paste because either you blended them too much, or they were too warm still, or both.

Hmm, I’m not an expert but, can you perhaps modify the tarts by putting the pastry dough in a cupcake liner and adding your cheese in there instead? Or does it need to actually be flat?

The east asian food being in there actually makes sense because when your in tyr’s temple there is a little painting of three civilizations, one is egyptian, the other is Japanese, and the last is myan so yewh it makes sense

You should make the perk a colas from cod zombies

My friends and I are trying to go through a variety of fowl for fun (or, I really want us to do it while they humour me), we have already done chicken, and last time we did turkey, and I was initially planning on us doing the Final Fantasy XIV Cookbook's duck next, when we find time in our lives to do it and find some duck. I am half tempted to try the quail if only because I cannot remember evern having tried it (usually chicken and grouse are what we find here), and if nothing else, the size would make it an experience, and whatever we cannot get from the bones, I can use to make stock. I would have found it interesting if the cookbook tried to go deep into the food of the Nordics, but I would worry that it would sort of be like with the Game of Thrones and Avatar: The Last Airbender cookbooks, that the food would not necessarily be anything tasty, and what would be tasty would require ingredients difficult to find. Besides, I get the impression that the God of War games do not try to go for any realism; they researched the Norse mythology, took what they liked and warped it to fit with what they wanted to tell in their games, so in a way, this cookbook picking what it likes and then going a bit everywhere with the various recipes works within the context of the duology. I say it with caution, though, since I have not consumed the games myself and only heard secondhanded about them.

5:05 Nice how they translated these ancient recipes to fit more conveniently with the modern day food markets.😉🍖

ahhh quail, when i was a cook one of the most piss off dishes i had to make was stuffed quail legs, ya can only get like a teaspoon of stuff in those suckers, LOL also those taters in the picture of the quail looked like hassleback potatoes, i keep wanting to make those

Good Kratos wasn't there with the dessert he would just say "don't be sorry be better" XD. But nah don't worry about it baking can be a pain in the ass sometimes

POP OFF COOKING KING 🎉

nice

Hey guys, actual viking reenactor here. If you are looking for recipes that actually represent what the people and/or gods of iron age Scandinavia cooked, you should check out the book "an early meal". It contains a bunch of historically and geographically accurate recipes, and the author is well versed in the history of the vikings. Cheers

Can you test Trejo's Tacos Cookbook

I feel like there was a step that was missed in the puff pastry dessert. I don't understand why the instructions asked you to make that second smaller ring on the inside of the dough. Maybe you were supposed to fold the sides up like a pie crust?

2:36 What if humans actually tried to hibernate like bears? How'd they have to prepare for it, and would they even be able to survive though it? This is a thing that I've been wondering for quite a long time, and hoped someone could give a professional answer and explanation. Or has someone already given it? If so, let me know ASAP!🤔😴🐻

Are there many baking recipes? I have a friend who likes GoW and baking and I was wondering if I should get her this book as a gift in the future

yay

Rosenthal's books always seem to be a big hit. I wonder what the feasibility of reaching out to her for an interview may be.

I literally was just playing this game! 😂

The nuts probably didn't roast proper coz they were so close to each other🤔they shoulda been further apart

2:23 ain't no way you said that lmao

I think the various different cultures is meant to either represent the 9 realms as having various different cultures or the fact that Tyr traveled the world

I'd really like to see you try to make the Mississippi quantum pie from fallout3. the lady who makes it ask you for three ingredients. nuka cola quantum flour and vodka I doubt that's enough to make a pie. feel free to fill in the gaps.

Is there an alternative temperature for 500 degrees for freakin gratitude because I don’t think my oven can reach 500

WOuld you reccomend that nut blend with chicken breast? :)

"I can't imagine Kratos and friends chowing down on bahn mis and shishito peppers and soba noodles..." ...Trust me. Eventually, Kratos and Sun Wukong are gonna come to fisticuffs. >w>

So tyr is the first incarnation of Anthony bourdain

I’m gonna start collecting video game cool books and aspire to be a master chef in the gaming world.

Oh yeah, they said that they will head to Asia within future games
