Beans: Used in various dishes in Kassar. A vegtable.
A great amount of farming, or perhaps one should speak of gardening, is done
at the oasis, but little of this is exported. At the oasis, will be grown
a hybrid, brownish Sa-Tarna, adapted to the heat of the desert; most Sa-Tarna
is yellow; and beans, berries, onions, tuber suls, various sorts of melons,
a foliated leaf vegetable, called Katch, and various root vegetables, such
as turnips, carrots, ...
Tribesmen of Gor, p 37
**Black Bread: Baked soft and full flavored from Gorean grains. It is dark
and heavy served best with clotted Bosk cream or honey.
The great merchant galleys of Port Kar, and Cos, and Tyros, and other maritime
powers, utilized thousands of such miserable wretches, fed on brews of peas
and black bread, chained in the rowing holds, under the whips of slave masters,
their lives measured by feedings and beatings and the labor of the oar.
Hunters of Gor, p 13
**Biscuits: The biscuits severed in Kassar are made daily and the welcoming scent fills the plains. Made from yellow sa-tarna grains and served with honey or various jams and jellies.
**Blueberries: Not specifically mentioned but berries was given a general reference,
so they are used for festives occasions and upon Ubars request.
most Sa-Tarna is yellow; and beans, berries, onions, tuber suls, various sorts
of melons
Tribesmen of Gor, p 37
Bond-Maid Gruel: Sometimes called "slave porridge/sa-tarna gruel".
Served as a cold unsweetened mixture of water and Sa-Tarna meal, on which
slaves are fed; in Torvaldsland it is called "bond-maid gruel" and
often mixed with pieces of chopped parsit fish
To Gorm, he said, "Feed her on the gruel of bond-maids."
Marauders of Gor, Chapter Five
**Bosk: Large, shaggy, long horned bovine, similar to the Urth cow, or Yak.
It is served as beef is served. To the Kassar Wagon People, the Bosk is very
revered, and used for much of their needs of use. Skins are used for leathers,
boots, pouches, sheaths, wagon covering, botas, etc. The meats are spiced,
dried, canned and stored as well as cooked for serving.
The meat was a steak cut from the loin, a huge shaggy long horned bovine,
meat is seared, as thick as the forearm of a Warrior on a small iron grill
on a kindling of charcoal cylinders so that the thin margin on the outside
was black, crisp and flaky sealed within by the touch of the fire-the rich
flesh hot and fat with juice. The bosk, without which the Wagon Peoples could
not live, is an ox like creature. It is a huge, shambling animal, with a thick,
humped neck and long, shaggy hair. Not only does the flesh of the bosk and
the milk of its cows furnish the Wagon Peoples with food and drink, but its
hides cover the domelike wagons in which they dwell; its tanned and sewn skin
cover their bodies.
Nomads of Gor, pages 4-5
**Bosk Broth: This is used especially when O/one is in need of sufficent nurishment
due to wounds or illness. Also used in the wintering to warm and give O/one
a lift.
With them, her hair combed, warmed with a broth of dried bosk meat, heated
in a copper kettle, over a fire on a rimmed iron plate, legged, set on another
plate on the stern quarter, her hands tied behind her with simple binding
fiber, had gone Aelgifu.
Book 9, Marauders of Gor Chapter 5:
**Butter: Churned from the cream of the Bosk or the Verr. Butter churning is both a slave’s and a FW's task in Kassar. This is kept chilled, in the chilling pit.
Carrots: A vegtable used in many delicious dishes and salads for the health
concious gorean. But in Kassar, carrots are NOT used in Kassar ever.
and various root vegetables, such as turnips, carrots, ...
Tribesmen of Gor, p 37
Caviar: Yes gorean caviar. The black tiny eggs of the white grunt. Severed
in Kassar in small silver bowl to be eaten with a silver spoon.
As in Tuchuk the gold is reserved for Ubar Greydon to eat from.
Before each guest there were tiny slices of tospit and larma, small pastries,
and in a tiny golden cup, with a small golden spoon, the clustered, black,
tiny eggs of the white grunt. The first wine, a light white wine, was being
deferentially served by Pamela and Bonnie.
Fighting Slave of Gor, pp 275-276
*Celane Melon: Sweet Cantaloupe. Served on a plate or platter, sometimes garnished
with Ta-grapes, perfect when in a fruit salad. There are also various other
melons available upon request.
"Buy melons," called a fellow next to her, lifting one of the yellowish,
red-striped spheres toward me.
Tribesmen of Gor, p 45
**Cheese: (Bosk): This is firm cheese and just right for slicing for sandwiches
or snacks.
(Verr): Mild tasting and soft, excellent with fruit or melted for sauces.
Usually served with bread, or meats, as a garnish to enhance the flavor.
(Kailiauk):Firm as is Bosk. Good for slicing. Used most by the Barren people.
*Cherry: A berry of sorts. Served alone or in various deserts. No specific
'Gorean' description offered. However they are mentioned as coming from the
Ilsles of Tyros. Served in Kassar in a scrumptious cherry cheese cake, or
a chocolate cherry filled cake.
With the tip of my tongue I touched her lips. Some slave cosmetics are flavored.
"Does Master enjoy my taste?" she asked. "The lipstick is flavored,"
I said. "I know," she said. "It reminds me of the cherries
of Tyros," I said.
Beasts of Gor, 28:
Chokecherrys: No specific 'Gorean' description offered. In Kassar the chokecherries
are made and canned to a jelly to adorn sweet cakes and sa-tarna bread toast.
They also are used in making a Wagon Peoples form of pemmican for Kassar Warriors
as They guard the plains.
Crushed fruit, usually chokecherries, is then added to the meat. The whole,
then, is mixed with, and fixed by, kailiauk fat, subsequently, usually, being
divided into small, flattish, rounded cakes. The fruit sugars make this, in
its way, a quick energy food, while the meat, of course, supplies valuable,
long lasting stamina protein.
Brothers of Gor, 4:46
**Chocolate: Needs nay introductions. It is sweet and delicious and may be
used for making fudge, cakes, brownies, frostings or sauces for special deserts
of Kassar. A Free Women and slave favorite!
"This is warmed chocolate," I said, pleased. It was very rich and
creamy. "Yes, ," said the . "It is very good," I said.
"Thank you, ," she said. "Is it from Earth?" I asked.
"Not directly," she said. "Many things here, of course, ultimately
have an Earth origin. It is not improbable that the beans from which the first
cacao trees on this world were grown were brought from Earth." "Do
the trees grow near here?" I asked. "No ," she said, "we
obtain the beans from which the chocolate is made, from Cosian merchants,
who in turn, obtain them in the tropics."
Kajira of Gor, p 61
Corn: A vegtable served in many different preparations. No specific 'Gorean'
description offered. However cobs of buttered maze served with bosk ribs are
a Kassar favorite!
Many of the tribes permit small agricultural communities to exist within their
domains, she said. The individuals in these communities are bound to the soil
and owned collectively by the tribes within whose lands they are permitted
to live. They grow produce for their masters such as wagmeza and wagmu, maize
or corn, and such things as pumpkins and squash.
Savages of Gor, p 233
Cosian Wingfish: Named for it's ability to fly above the waters of Thassa
for short distances. Its livers are considered a delicacy, and the slave who
cooks this trained in the art of gourmet. A tiny blue salt water fish with
4 poisonous spines on its dorsal fins.
Now this, Saphrar the merchant was telling me, is the braised liver of the
blue, four-spines Cosian wingfish. This fish is a tiny, delicate fish, blue,
about the size of a tarn disk when curled in one's hand; it has three or four
slender spines in its dorsal fin, which are poisonous; it is capable of hurling
itself from the water and, for brief distances, on its stiff pectoral fins,
gliding through the air, usually to evade the smaller sea-tharlarions, which
seem to be immune to the poison of spines. This fish is also sometimes referred
to as the songfish because, as a portion of its courtship rituals, the males
and females thrust their heads from the water and utter a sort of whistling
sound. The blue, four-spined wingfish is found only in the waters of Cos.
Larger varieties are found farther out to sea. The small blue fish is regarded
as a great delicacy, and its liver as the delicacies of delicacies.
Nomads of Gor, p 23
**Dates: Some of these come from the City of Turia. They mainly come from Tor.
A date nutbread with Verr butter or cheese, and delicious date filled cookies
are served in Kassar and done with perfection. A must to try.
The principal export of the oases are dates and pressed-date bricks. Some
of the date palms grow to more than a hundred feet high. It takes ten years
before they begin to bear fruit. They will then yield fruit for more than
a century. A given tree, annually, yields between one and five Gorean weights
of fruit. A weight is some ten stone, or some forty Earth pounds. Tribesmen
of Gor, 2:37
**Eel: Found in the waters of gor and cooked in a variety of ways. Baby eels(elvers)
are sure to delight a Hungry Kassar Warrior with a flare for delicacies.

of the Verr and a sack of red olives from the groves of Tyros.
Raiders of Gor, p 114
Flavored Ice: Made in Kassar during the wintering months, for Those wishing
a freshing beverage with a different twist.
The High Initiate had risen to his feet and accepted a goblet from another
Initiate, probably containing minced flavored ices, for the day was warm.
Free women, here and there, were delicately putting tidbits beneath their
veils. Some even lifted their veils somewhat to drink of the flavored ices.
Some low-caste free women drank through their veils, and there were yellow
and purple stains on the rep-cloth.
Assassin of Gor, p 141
Gant: (Marsh)A long-legged marsh bird with a piping cry. The meat is roasted,
baked, or fried, alone or in various dishes. The eggs are used, as well. (Jungle)Related
to the marsh gant, but inhabits the rainforest inland of Schendi. The eggs
are used here also.
Before the feast I had helped the women, cleaning fish and dressing marsh
gants, and then, later, turning spits for the roasted tarsks, roasted over
rence-root fires, kept on metal pans, elevated above the rence of the islands
by metal racks, themselves resting on larger pans.
Raiders of Gor, page 44
Gant Eggs: The eggs of the "artic gant" are frozen and eaten as
a apple. Especially enjoyed during the wintering months.
I stepped aside to let a young pass, who carried two baskets of eggs, those
of the migratory arctic gant. They nest in the mountaim of the Hrimgar and
in steep, rocky outcroppings, called bird cliffs, found here and there jutting
out of the tundra. The bird cliffs doubtless bear some geological relation
to the Hrimgar chains. When such eggs are frozen they are eaten like apples.
Beasts of Gor, p 196
Garlic: Used most to season other dishes and considered a spice. However
is also used in medicinal purposes.
I have peas and turnips, garlic and onions in my hut.
Outlaw of Gor, p 29
*Gint: A small freshwater fish that has capabilities of walking on land and or water. Very good but is only 6 inches long. However the Giant Gint found in western Gor with its four spined dorsal fin is much more the meal and the opponent.

cooking or to sweeten a drink. Added note: not to be confused with a slave's
honey.

on a metal rod, with slices of peppers and larma, and roasted; vulo stew with
raisins, nuts, onions and honey; a kort with melted cheese and nutmeg; hot
Bazi tea, sugared and later, Turian wine.
Tribesmen of Gor, page 48
*Larma: A juicy bittersweet yet succulent fruit. Like a grapefruit with a brittle
rind. Sometimes sliced and fried, and served with browned honey sauce. Can
also be used to make a larma juice. Offering a larma, real or imaginary by
a slave to a Master is a silent plea for the to be raped. In Kassar is NOT
served to or by Free Women. Beware, as should a slave serve such will be RAPED
not just used.
The slave boy, Fish, had emerged from the kitchen, holding over his head on
a large silver platter a whole roasted tarsk,steaming and crisped, basted,
shining under the torch light, a larma in its mouth, garnished with suls and
Tur-Pah.
Raiders Gor, p 219

Mint Sticks: A candy eaten by Kassar Frees and given to deserving slaves.
On the tray too, was the metal vessel which contained black wine, steaming
and bitter from far Thentis, famed for its tarn flocks, the small yellow-enamled
cups from which we had drunk the black wine, its spoons and sugars, a tiny
bowl of mint sticks, and the softened, dampened cloths on which we had wiped
our fingers.
Explorers of Gor, p 10
Mushrooms: Larger than "earthen" varieties. Sliced in various dishes
or served whole stuffed with cooked tarsk and peppers at Kassar. A favorite
when served with a thick bosk steak.
I was particularly fond of stuffed mushrooms. "What are they stuffed
with?" I asked Hurtha. "Sausage." he said. "Tarsk?"
I asked. "Of course." he said.
Mercenaries of Gor, p 83
Nutmeg: A spice used on kort and in cooking various delicacies to make even

Captive of Gor, p 301
Parsit: A silvery fish having brown stripes. Can be breaded, cubed, fried,
baked and smoked. In Kassar, paga-batter parsit nuggets are served with rice
and better than any fish and chips served elsewhere in gor.
The men of Torvaldsland are skilled with their hands. Trade to the south,
of course is largely in furs acquired from Torvaldsland, and in barrels of
smoked, dried parsit fish.
Marauders of Gor, p 28
Peaches: A gorean peach is yellow in color when ripe and is viewed as larma
when served to a Master as a plea for His use. Kassar men are known to eat
a peach for hours. Used in pies, deserts, candied, or eaten alone.
Another device, common in Port Kar, is for the to kneel before the Master
and put her head down and lift her arms, offering him fruit, usually larma,
or a yellow Gorean peach, ripe and fresh.
Tribesmen of Gor, pp 27, 28
Peas: As the common green gorean pea is grown and served. Other peas are
also used such as butter, black eyed, snowpeas and cowpeas. They are perpared
in a variety of ways in Kassar.

Rence: A water plant, the grain is eaten and the stems harvested and pressed
into paper or woven into cloth. The grain may be broiled or ground into a
paste and sweetened, this paste can also be fried into a type of pancake.
Rence paper bags are used for roasting delicacies in various dishes.
I had carried about bowls of cut, fried fish, and wooden trays of roasted
tarsk meat, and roasted gants, threaded on sticks, and rence cakes and porridges,
and gourd flagons, many times replenished, of rence beer.
Raiders Gor, p 44
Rice: As in "Earthen" rice this is kernels of a hard small nature,
until cooked. Used in a variety of dishes, as a side compliment to many meats
or in soup. Used in Kassar as a side dish and adorned with various gravies.
I then took bits of vulo from the bowl and held them out to them. I also put
some rice in the palm of my hand, from which she took it. I heard Flaminius
gasp in anger. "Do you object?" I asked. His slave, before him,
was eating from the hand of another man. To be sure, we had all eaten earlier,
as well. Then, however, I had had Yanina eat from a pan on the floor.
Players of Gor, 19:379-380
*River Shark: Narrow, black, carnivorous fish with a triangular dorsal fin. Very vicious but excellent taste when cut to steaks. Plentiful in Kassar from the Vosk River and a welcome opponant for the Warriors to catch!

in general.
Sa-Tassna in the Gorean language literally means 'life mother'. It is synonymous
with the word meat.
Tarnsman of Gor, page 43
**Salt: Salt comes in three varieties, red, yellow and white. Most salt in
mined in Klima. Torvoldlanders get their salt from sea water or seaweed. It
is also brought in by traders.
It had been expected, I gathered, that I would sit at one of the two long
side tables, and perhaps even below the bowls of red and yellow salt which
divided these tables. The table of Cernus itself, of course, was regarded
as being above the bowls.
Assassin of Gor, p 89
Salt Thassa Fish: A small fish from Thassa. Serve baked, steamed or broiled.
Snails: Larger than "Earthen" snails and although eatible are used
mostly for bait. In Kassar however a dish of "Gorean Escargot" is
a dish that speaks for itself.
Once the Forkbeard went to her and taught her to check the scoop, with her
left hand, for snails, that they not be thrown overboard. Returning to me
he held one of the snails, whose shell he crushed between his fingers, and
sucked out the animal, chewing and swallowing it. He then threw the shell
fragments overboard. "They are edible," he said. "And we use
them for fish bait."
Marauders of Gor
Sorp: A shellfish, common especially in the Vosk river. Similar to an Urth oyster. "Tambor Gulf Oysters" They are served raw, steamed,baked, smoked, or in stews.

other spices, as well."
Explorers of Gor p 98
**Sugar: Two varieties are commonly used, white sugar and yellow sugar. There
are mentions of other sugars. There are always other beliefs of the sugars,
just remember, NEVER argue with a Free.

**Tospit: A bitter, juicy citrus fruit. Small and peach like, yellow in in
color and often dried and candied. Used also for Kassar games. So remember
to place Your bet as Wagon Peoples love to gamble!
He looked at me shrewdly and, to my surprise, drew a tospit out of his pouch,
that yellowish-white, bitter fruit, looking something like a peach, but about
the size of a plum.
Nomads of Gor, 12:149
*Tumits: A large carnivorous bird of the plains that is hunted and eaten by the Wagon People of Gor. Traditionally hunted with bolos. The sport lies in whether you or the bird gets to eat that night. It is excellent when roasted or made in a Tumit soup.

Turnip: A desert vegetable. These are NOT used in Kussar ever.
They supplement their diets by picking berries and digging wild turnips, said
the first lad.
Brothers of Gor, p 124
**Verr: A goat like animal from the mountains of Thentis. The meat can be eaten,
and used in various ways. Its milk can be used for drinking or the making
of cheese and butter. However, Verr meat is best when steamed and wrapped
in leaves for the whole day. This prevents it from being bitter and stringy.
Store it after wrapped in oiled rep-cloth in the pit. Verrs as hurts are kept
and sheared in Kassar and the wool used for making of cloth, as well as the
meat used. Remember Wagon People wastes nothing.
"In the cafes, I had feasted well. I had had verr meat, cut in chunks
and threaded on a metal rod
Tribesmen of Gor, page 48
Vosk Carp: A large carp from the river Vosk. Roll this in sa-tarna bread batter and fry over the fires . Tasty.
**Vulo: Tawny colored poultry bird, similar to a pigeon. They are kept in pens,
raised like Urth chickens and also exist in the wild. They are used for meat
and its eggs which are very small. Meat is roasted, baked, stewed, or used
in soups. Eggs are fried, boiled or pickled. Keep the shells to feed back
to them as it makes thier shell more durable, plus adding calcium to the vulo's
diet.

Slave of Gor, p 73
White Grunt: A large white fish of the north waters of Gor. Prepaired in
a variety of ways from steamed to fried. True eating pleasure for the fish
tasters pallett.
Three other men of the Forkbeard attended to fishing, two with a net, sweeping
it along the side of the serpent, for parsit fish, and the third, near the
stem, with a hook and line, baited with vulo liver, for the white-bellied
grunt, a large game fish which haunts the plankton banks to feed on parsit
fish.
