Followed the link...ah...the infamous Montys that chocolate might be even more wavy thin
Anyway, I could imagine a quite fitting round world version of the Wow Wow Sauce like that:
Apple vinegar
Pickled cucumber
Capers
Mango
Figs
Hot mustard
Durian fruit (Earths pendant to the wahoonie, I think)
Piri piri or any other REAL hot chili pepper
Nitratesalt
Worchestersauce
Garlic

Might be tasty, huh?

You might want Wasabi Japanese very hot green sauce added.

I nearly got in trouble at a Chinese buffet in a restaurant in the Netherlands. I very nearly spooned, what I thought was pistachio sauce onto my ice cream. Luckily I spotted that it was actually wasabi sauce.

 

[Who's Wee Dug]

You very rarely get real Wasabi sauce outside of Japan, instead they make a very hot horseradish sauce instead of using wasabi root to make it.

It'd still taste nasty on ice cream!

Well, yea, I read about that. I would be quite curious about the difference.
I made some Rincewind Cake today for lunch but next time I have to take less milk for the mashed potatoes because it looked more like potato pancake. Still was tasty
I saw at the net some folks doing some cooking from Nanny's receipts, even the infamous Strawberry Wobbler . When I started this post I thought, it could be a cool idea to post here Round Earth versions of Nanny's. Btw.. any Ladies here?

 

[RathDarkblade]

I'm certain there are some ladies here, yes. (I am not one, though).

What is a Rincewind Cake? *curious*

 

[Who's Wee Dug]

Yes but they have beardsand dress in chain mail. Joking aside there are a few who post quite regularly.

The Rincewind's Potatoe cakes. Mashed potatoes fried in a pan like beefburgers. On Nanny Ogg's Cooking book page 38 (e-book)
I could post a picture next time

 

[RathDarkblade]

Do you mean this one?

Or this one?

Yep, Rincewind sure loves his spuds.

 

[Katinka Koschka]

Mostly, like Nanny said afterwards he surely like any kind of potatoe meal

 

[Who's Wee Dug]

Nanny would like the alcohol made out of the potatoes.

Nanny would like the alcohol made out of the potatoes.

Traditional vodka!

 

[Who's Wee Dug]

And poteen.

 

[RathDarkblade]

And this soup.

Is poteen that the same as poitin?

 

[Who's Wee Dug]

It is, there are are vartions in the spelling depending in which part or Ireland you're from.

I remember buying this book in hardback when it was first released, and asking my mother if she would make the sausages for me.

She spent an afternoon piping meat into sausage skins for me, which gave her tennis elbow that still hasn't fully healed to this day. After that I felt so guilty that I never asked her to make anything else again!

Ouch, Highland Roy (also, welcome). I injured my shoulders doing yard work, so that I couldn't raise my arms above horizontal, but they healed after a year. I've avoided most yard work ever since.

 

[Katinka Koschka]

Ouuutch! That is tragic for sure. But she must be really loving you for not stopping it when the first itches came

 

[Katinka Koschka]

Btw. I thought the other day that this quite hip "Granola" sounds a lot like fried porridge a la Alberto Malich

Fried porridge with sugar in it.
