Description
DC: Superman: The Official Cookbook takes you on a culinary journey through the many evolutions of the Man of Steel. Explore official recipes that capture Superman's life growing up on Kent Farms, working as a reporter in Metropolis, collaborating with fellow superheroes at the Hall of Justice, and living as one of the last surviving Kryptonians in the Fortress of Solitude.
Continuing a Kent Family tradition, Martha has compiled an heirloom cookbook filled with Clark's favourite dishes, with a little help from his friends and colleagues. Together, they've recreated the beef bourguignon and ketchup from Clark and Lois’s first date, Cyborg’s lucky game day potato skins, and J’onn’s Chocos. Martha has even tried her hand at recreating Plurb, which she hears is wonderfully awful, though she wasn't quite ready to taste that one herself.
From Jimmy Olsen’s go-to food truck gyro wrap to Oliver Queen’s spicy chilli, and not forgetting Martha’s own award-winning apple pie, these meals combine unique design with comforting flavours. You'll feel at home, no matter where you might hang your cape.
Inspired by official comic book canon: This cookbook was developed in partnership with DC Comics.
An immersive culinary adventure: Each chapter revisits iconic moments in Superman’s life, organised by the various places he’s called “home”: from Smallville to Metropolis to the Hall of Justice and the Fortress of Solitude.
For every skill level: Step-by-step instructions, accessible ingredients, and vivid food photography make this book ideal for home cooks of all stripes.
A must-have for fans: With custom cover artwork, stunning food photography, and intriguing tidbits about the characters’ interpersonal relationships, this cookbook was crafted with fans at its heart.
