Moonstew
A stew which features Taurus Domesticis meat and Moonshine as its main ingredients, Moonstew is only made when a member of the Taurus Domesticis herd has died from natural causes. If the animal has died by predator attack or disease, it is buried away from the herd instead. The hard liquor involved in the recipe means that this dish is only consumed by adults, though teenagers may receive a small bowl, depending on the family. The dish is freely shared between households and even with outsiders, such as visiting Defenders and Battle Spears.
While Taurus Domesticis herds have joined existing cow herds, Homesteaders do not dare kill them for meat. They fear that if they teach the animals that humans count as predators, the herds will no longer approach humans and thus cannot be used as working animals anymore. This is why Homesteaders only eat old specimen that die of natural causes. Because their meat is chewy, various stew recipes were developed. Due to the meat pairing nicely with hard liquor, people ended up incorporating their own Moonshine into their recipes.
