Stuffed puffer pig

Stuffed puffer pig was an entrée that contained pink-tinged, roasted slices of puffer pig with a brown-colored wrapping and a filling of fresh green herbs. The Artiodac chef Strono Tuggs considered the porcines delicious when stuffed and roasted in their own juices. At his mobile restaurant, Tuggs' Grub, he only served the dish when he could purchase puffer pigs upon arriving and docking his food freighter. The nervous creatures ballooned in size when frightened, taking up too much of his limited storage space to make it worth transporting them. In 34 ABY, he included a recipe for stuffed puffer pig in his cookbook, The Official Black Spire Outpost Cookbook.
At some point no earlier than 35 ABY, Galactic Society of Creature Enthusiasts' Director of Creature Cartography, Ardis San Tekka, mentioned stuffed puffer pig in her journal within an entry about puffer pigs, noting that they were raised on Batuu for consumption to be enjoyed as part of the dish.Star Wars Bestiary, Vol. 1: Creatures of the Galaxy
==Behind the scenes==
Stuffed puffer pig was first mentioned in the 2019 recipe book Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge: The Official Black Spire Outpost Cookbook, written by Chelsea Monroe-Cassel and Marc Sumerak. The out-of-universe recipe is made with pork tenderloins wrapped with bacon and rolled around a filling of baby spinach, apple, fennel, sage, pepper, and salt.
