About the Recipe
The popango is the most important ingredient in Revinian cuisine. Featured in recipes throughout central and southeastern Valtiel, the popango fruit provide sweet, rich flavors not seen anywhere else in the known world. Native to the Eleran Rainforest between Reavon and Melaine, the popango fruit has become widely cultivated through the bioluminescent farmlands of central Reavon. The fruit itself is a bluish-purple mango-like treat, filled with seeds in the middle that burst with flavorful juice when eaten.
​
Popango fruit pasta is a Revinian dish, combining the sweet flavors of the fruit with its seeds and pasta noodles. It's more common in the south, but a favorite dish throughout the region.
​
In The Fall of Kings, popango is offered to Ayara during her captivity aboard Meric's ship.
