THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW

 

HELLO, SWEETIE

Thanks for taking a chance on my labor of love. I’ve spent the last year watching and rewatching the entire reboot of Doctor Who. Amazingly, I still love it. Since you bought this book, I know you do, too.

There are a few things you need to know before you turn another page.

SPOILERS!

This book includes a recipe for every episode of the reboot. I did my best to keep each recipe genuinely relevant to the episode, so yes, there are spoilers in every single recipe. I’m not too worried about this since it's safe to assume anyone who owns this cookbook loves the show as much as I do. However, if you’re a new fan, stop reading before you reach your latest episode. You’ve been warned.

EPISODE NUMBERING

You’d be surprised how many different ways the episodes are numbered. The Christmas specials are sometimes thrown in with the previous series and sometimes treated as the first episode of a new series. Other places list them in a sort of seasonless limbo. The Series 4 David Tennant specials are just an incredible mess. In the end, I went with what I considered the clearest, most easily understood system I could find. Your mileage may vary.

AMERICAN VERSUS METRIC MEASUREMENTS

You can tell by the spelling and volumetric measurements that I am, in fact, an American. I’ve done my best to convert all my recipes into their metric equivalents. It’s only fair. You gave us Doctor Who. I practically owe you recipes you can make without keeping a calculator in the kitchen.

However, despite my best intentions, going back and forth between a measurement based on volume and one based on weight can be tricky. When in doubt, always fall back on the sad, non-standard, antiquated American measurements.

SPECIAL DIETS

Most of the Doctor Who themed recipes on the web are for startlingly gorgeous desserts. Unfortunately, that makes them off limits to people with Celiac disease (who can’t eat wheat), people who are lactose intolerant (who can't have dairy), vegetarians (who can't eat meat) vegans (who can’t eat any animal byproducts, including eggs or dairy) and paleo or low carb dieters (who can’t eat grains.) I’ve gone out of my way to make sure there are a few recipes everyone can eat. Check the appendix for help finding recipes which fit your needs. If you’re on a special diet, by all means, feel free to modify any of my recipes to fit your need, then please post the changes online for everyone to share.

 

SERIES 1: LAST OF THE TIME LORDS

Nestene Consciousness  (S1, E1 - Rose)

 

 

4 cups/950 ml cream
3 cups/710 ml red wine
2 cups/475 g sugar
2 lemons or limes
1 sprig rosemary

Hello, Doctor. It’s been awhile. You’re looking very modern in your black t-shirt and leather jacket - and if you don’t mind me saying so, kind of sexy with those high cheekbones and that sparkle in your eye. You’re trouble. I like it.

You’re back on Earth, more than a little scarred from the Time War, and very much needing some bright, optimistic human company again. You found that, but you also found a Nestene Consciousness. While bright and colorful, it wasn’t so friendly.

My fellow fans, you too can stare into a suspicious vat of thick orange and red. Drinking this won’t leave you possessed by an alien, though if you down the whole batch, you might start hearing voices.
