About the Recipe
Pan Banana Bread
Pan Banana Bread is a uniquely Revinian dish, due to the blend of rare ingredients with traditional bread, that in Reavon, was usually cooked from a skillet. Bananas and sugar were both ingredients local only to the Eleran Rainforest nestled between southern Reavon and northern Melaine. Adding these ingredients as well as the delicacies of cinnamon and nutmeg from Neferkara, transformed what was a staple of the common people - bread - into something worthy of the monarch's plate.
Revinian elites didn't often dine on bread, seeing it as a poor people's food. Despite this, providing their guests pan banana bread showcased their wealth and ability to afford a wide range of difficult to acquire ingredients.

Xilcalan Cream
​
Xilcalan Cream was a wildly popular light appetizer throughout Reavon originating in the city of Xilcalan just south of Atula. It consisted of lemons from the jungles near Penwyn, heavy whipping cream, and a recent invention out of the city - sugar syrup (simple syrup)– the sugar from Melaine. It had an airy and ever so slightly runny consistency, tasting similar to butter with a sharp sweet punch.
