==Description==
A kebroot was a type of tuberous vegetable that was edible by Artiodacs and humans.
==History==
Prior to the planetLeia, Princess of Alderaan Alderaan's destruction in 0 BBY,Star Wars: Galactic Atlas the human natives of the world included kebroot in the main course of a feast celebrating the Winter's Heart festival. When preparing the course, kebroot was peeled into a pot and then boiled. It was served alongside other vegetables and a roast kulkan.
In 0 ABY or later,Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates the Disaster to the end of 0 BBY. According to "The Song of Winter's Heart," Rel was recruited into the Rebel Alliance several weeks later. Therefore, the recruitment must have occurred in 0 ABY. Since Rel and Max's truce occurs sometime after the recruitment, it must take place in 0 ABY or later. while enlisted with the Rebel Alliance, the Alderaanian Rel was working as a scout during a battle against the Galactic Empire on the Outer Rim moon Shard when he ran into his childhood friend, Max, who was on the opposing side as a cold weather assault stormtrooper. The pair called a truce and imagined how, if Alderaan had not been destroyed, they would have been peeling kebroot into a pot in preparation for a Winter's Heart banquet.
The Artiodac chef Strono Tuggs used kebroot to make Kebroot Parcels, which he included as a recipe for his second cookbook, The Life Day Cookbook, at some point after the publishing of his first cookbook in 34 ABY. The Artiodac considered the parcels to be mouthwatering and hoped that they captured some of the flavor of Winter's Heart for those who had survived the destruction of Alderaan and still remembered the festival or sought culinary comfort around that time of year.
