Quest text[edit]
Fillet tells you, Ooh, something smells crisp and spicy! Wait, wait, do not tell Fillet... Ginger! <player> has found some ginger! Ahh, Fillet loves ginger! Not quite as much as Fillet loves garlic, but still, love it. A few slices sprinkled over a fresh bowl of trout ice cream, add a few berries, let it sit a few minutes and get happy... Oh, yes! What does <player> enjoy adding ginger to?
Create 12 Sugar for Fillet.
Fillet tells you, What!? <player> has never used ginger before? This is a food crime! <player> must learn the secrets of using ginger before the food police arrive. While Fillet is cleaning up here, please make twelve measures of sugar. Yes, fresh sugar. Fillet has a recipe to share with <player> and fresh sugar is best. One never knows what evil aromatics might have corrupted long-stored sweetness, yes? When <player> comes back, Fillet will show <player> how to kick food up a notch!
Fillet tells you, Very nice, very nice, this sugar will be perfect. Now, observe how Fillet slices the ginger. Very thin, on the bias, let the blade do the work. Now, <player> shall try.
Stop that! Do not poke the ginger; it didn't do anything to <player>!
Yes, much better. Very nice. <player> is ready. Study this recipe, and then prepare Sliced Ginger for Fillet to examine.
Well done! Show your work to Fillet.
Fillet tells you, And there <player> has it! Ginger is an excellent garnish and will help almost any main dish or dessert get very happy. It can also be made very sweet, almost a piece of candy. A Gifted named Anima gave Fillet a recipe to make crystallized ginger, which is why Fillet asked <player> to make fresh sugar. Fillet made a copy of Anima's recipe for <player> to study. Please create a batch of crystallized ginger for Fillet to evaluate.
Yes, excellent, wonderful sugar coverage. Fillet is convinced that <player> now knows the fundamentals of using ginger. If <player> finds any other rare herbs or spices, Fillet will be very happy to teach <player> how to use them most effectively. Until then, Fillet wishes Confectioner <player> very good eating!
