Product Description Is there one food that humans, Klingons, Bajorans, and Vulcans would like? If so, what would it taste like? How would you prepare it? Could you find all the ingredients locally?This is the task that faces Neelix, chef for the U.S.S. Voyager, every time he takes on the challenge of trying to feed its crew of 140 food critics. But over the course of their journey, Neelix's learned a few tricks of the trade. He had to, just as a matter of self-preservation. Ethan Phillips, in the persona of Neelix, and William J. Birnes, the New York Times bestselling coauthor of The Day After Roswell, throw wide the vaults of interstellar haute cuisine, revealing for the first time the secret preparation techniques behind all those exotic dishes and drinks. The favorite foods of characters from every Star Trek series and movie are here, all adapted for easy use in twentieth-century kitchens. The Star Trek Cookbook also features a complete guide for whipping up the all the drinks served at Quark's. Fun, and easy to use, the Star Trek Cookbook is your indispensable guide to the food of the stars!

The Star Trek Cook Book April 21, 2008 Wow! This book has every possible receipe from star trek in it. From TOS to Voyager. No bright colour photos though (bit of a dissapointment). The receipies are all very detailed and some quite complex (13 hours to cook baked beans). I would highly recommend to Trekkies and thoughs who want to cook something different.
Nice compilation June 7, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I got this as a goof for my girlfriend (she'd recently gotten into Star Trek: Voyager) and was surprised to find how many recipes were in the book. I perused it a bit and found about a dozen that I'd like her to try and make for dinner. I haven't read the prose in the book much yet but there is quite a bit of it and it seems humorous. Worth the buy.
Fun Cookbook With Interesting Facts April 18, 2007 This is a really nice thing to have if you like eating and drinking things and calling it food from Trek. If you ever wanted to make human Gagh, this is for you! It has some really nice recipes that taste great, and some that are only ok. Some of the recipes aren't recipes at all, but just suggestions to make everyday things look like Trek food. For example, Romulan Ale is nothing more than blue Gatorade mixed with sparkling water, that is the recipe. Don't get me wrong, there are real recipes that make great cakes and such as well, so it's not all easy things. Overall, this is a fun book for fans
Fun and interesting recipies September 2, 2006 This book is amazing. It practically has every single dish ever mentioned in the Star Trek series, from Klingon Blood Pie to Tea, Hot, Earl Grey (Picard always ordered that). Some of the dishes are 'peculiar' like the Klingon Blood Pie that has kidney's and other weird things in it. Yet, other recipies are simpler, like strawberries and cream (from voyager). This is a must have for any Star Trek fan, though i would recommend some cooking experience. The fun of eating Klingon Blood Pie is less for someone not familiar with the shows but you can also buy the book for it's original recipies. A big recommender!!!
Great Cookbook August 13, 2006 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I love this cook book though I was a little disappointed that it didn't have "B'Elanna's" grandmother's banana pancakes. The rest is great though.
