In celebration of Star Trek Day on September 8, we’ve rounded up some of our favorite cuisine from the show and accompanied it with quick, easy-to-make recipes for a full “Star Trek” menu.
You don’t have to climb aboard the USS Enterprise to experience a food tour that’s out of this world. In fact, most of space’s drool-worthy (and downright repulsive) dishes can be replicated right here on planet Earth. From booze and stews to bread and berries, no “Star Trek” delicacy has been left unturned. So brew a cup of tea…Earl Grey…hot…and get scrolling.
Romulan Ale Cocktail
We’re not sure if the starship captains had blue-curaçao on hand to create this drink’s signature color, but it certainly delivers on the getting drunk part. Cheers! Get our Romulan Ale Cocktail recipe.
Bolian Tomato Soup
Chowhound
There may be 14 varieties available from the replicator, but nothing beats hot, plain tomato soup. HOT, PLAIN TOMATO SOUP, we said. Get the Bolian Tomato Soup recipe.
Regova Eggs
Chowhound
Consider these a healthier alternative to traditional Regova eggs (a Cardassian delicacy). Rather than a dye-infused green shell, we’ve adorned these with heart-friendly asparagus wedges. Get our Regova Eggs recipe.
Oskoid Salad
Chowhound
Radicchio may not contain a sap that will keep you warm, but this purple-hued winter salad, mixed with a honey vinaigrette, should keep you toasty during the cooler months. Get the Oskoid Salad recipe.
“Mapa Bread“

You’re going to need a round, white loaf to dunk into that tomato soup. You’re also going to need a round, white loaf for pretty much every meal in life. Get the “Mapa Bread” recipe.
Hasperat
Think of this spicy vegan wrap as the Bajoran’s answer to Chipotle. Except with this recipe, guacamole is never extra. Get the Hasperat recipe.
“Klingon Octopus”
Chowhound
It’s native to Qo’noS and every new restaurant menu in New York City. We’ll take our octopus grilled, please. Get the “Klingon Octopus” recipe.
Jumbo Romulan Mollusks
Chowhound
While the original Jumbo Romulan mollusk appears to have rice and egg, we’re pretty sure they wouldn’t turn down this baked oyster variety with bacon, potatoes, and breadcrumbs. Get our Jumbo Romulan Mollusks recipe.
Ratamba Stew
This emerald-green, vegetable-heavy concoction can be served over spinach linguine for dinner, or as an assault to noses anywhere. Get the Ratamba Stew recipe.
“Jumja Stick”
Chowhound
You’re certainly not getting an overabundance of vitamin C, but these maple syrup confections will satisfy any sweet tooth. Get the “Jumja Stick” recipe. (Or try this Jumja Stick recipe with treacle.)
“Groatcake”
Chowhound
Get your groat on with this dense and irresistible oatmeal cake. We’d top it with syrup of squill, but Mother Earth has only blessed us with maple syrup, honey, and the ever-so-trendy agave nectar. Get the “Groatcake” recipe.
“Uttaberry Crepe”
You don’t have to be Benjamin Sisko to crave these blueberry-esque berries at breakfast time. Get the “Uttaberry Crepe” recipe.
