Explore the many evolutions of the Man of Steel through official recipes that capture his life growing up on Kent Farms, as a reporter in Metropolis, with fellow superheroes at the Hall of Justice, and as one of the last surviving Kryptonians in the Fortress of Solitude.
Continuing a Kent Family tradition, Martha has put together an heirloom cookbook full of Clarks favorite dishes with help from his friends and colleagues, of course. Together, theyve recreated the beef bourguignon and ketchup from Clark and Loiss first date, Cyborgs lucky game day potato skins, and Jonns Chocos. Marthas even recreated Plurb, which she hears is wonderfully awful. She wasnt quite ready to taste that one herself.
From Jimmy Olsens go-to food truck gyro wrap to Oliver Queens spicy chili, not to mention Marthas own award-winning apple pie, these meals combine one-of-a-kind design with comfort-food flavors. So youll feel at home, wherever you might hang your cape.
