[R10] Prompt Five - A Special Dish
by Tileira Author IconMail Icon
Pancakes are made on Shrove Tuesday to use up eggs, milk and butter before fasting for lent. Tea ceremonies are typically for receiving guests thoughtfully. Many cultures have dishes specific to funerals or weddings. Even birthday cakes are a ritual food.

Write a scene which features a ritual dish.

Things to consider…
*Noteb* What does this dish represent? What degree of ceremony surrounds it?
*Noteb* What is the dish made of? Is the symbolism in its ingredients like a pancake or its presentation like a birthday cake?
*Noteb* What is this dish traditionally served with? e.g. a particular beverage of fresh fruit.
*Noteb* Is there a particular venue attached to this ceremony or event?
*Noteb* What history or relationship does your character have with this dish? Did she learn how to make it from her grandmother? Is it part of a hated observance his parents forced him to participate in?
