#get recipe for Mina

[resourcefulsatan]

I received my first letter from Jonathan Harker today, and I LOVE this! He recommended getting the recipe for Paprika Hendl, so here it is for anyone who wants to try it. (edited to add the other dishes mentioned) Paprika Hendl Chicken Dish Nokedli Pasta for the Hendl Basic Mamaliga Romanian Polenta Impletata Eggplant stuffed with forcemeat

I know Mina probably doesn’t want to leave Jonathan’s side, but I hope she gets out to explore the city for a bit! Budapest is such a cool place! And she can tell him all about it when she returns so he can have word of something beyond the hospital walls.

Just imagine though:

Mina: I tried something new today, Jonathan!

Jonathan: Oh?

Mina: Yes! It’s called paprika heindl—

Jonathan: !!!!!!!!!!!!

#dracula daily #mina murray #jonmina #nerd4nerd #he wanted to bring back the recipe so she could try it since she couldn’t come on the trip #he’d be so happy that she gets a little of that despite all the difficulties they’re facing!!

Recs to eat out in budapest honeymoon that isn't chicken

Tökfozelék aka Summer Squash Stew. Squash filled with sour cream and dill, very popular stew in the summer.

Gulyás. Full of flavor rich stew with beef, paprika, onions, and potatoes. Impossible to not encounter in Hungary. Not expensive so it's perfect if you already blew your money on trains and hospitals.

Meggyleves. It's sour cherry soup as an appetizer. Sour cherries, sugar, and sour cream. Also Meggyes Rétes, sour cherry strudel.

Dobos torte was made in 1885, It is a sponge cake layered with chocolate buttercream and topped with caramel everybody try it right now this instant. Or chimney cake, even older, caramelized dough around a cylinder and cooked over an open fire.

Tokaji wine for sweetness and Bull's Blood wine. Good for recovery my grandma says so.

-Slovenian but shhh eastern european cuisines are sisters

This project is rapidly becoming the food blog our boy always dreamed of

You're so right I need Dobos torte in my life right now

#dracula #dracula daily #jonathan harker #mina harker #they're just so perfect for each other #jonathan gets her all these recipes #and mina is practicing shorthand for him

My heart keeps finding new ways to break and sympathy-panic for Jonathan with today’s entry. Because, God. God. How could he ever have expected this? How could he ever have prepared for anything like this?

He was just on a business trip. His very first. Important, certainly! For his future, for his mentor, for his life with Mina. But now, somehow, his entire life has been broken at the neck and detoured down into this impossible scenario ripped from a sordid penny dreadful. Even as he plans and prays and tries to keep a stranglehold on his sanity and hope, the thought has to be there:

“This is it for me. This is really it. I’ll never see Mina again. I am going to live out the rest of my life here, in this cold stone box with all its monsters. I am going to be used and preyed upon by an inhuman Thing that used to be a client and is now my owner.”

(This man belongs to me.)

“I am going to have every last comfort and freedom and choice stripped away by him. I am going to be handed over to three demons with women’s faces to be used as a living winepress. I am going to die. And there are very good, very horrifying odds that death will not free me.”

(Yes, I too can love.)

Yes, he loves. And he keeps all the ones he’s loved before bound in this castle like his personal dragon’s hoard.

Jonathan will try, of course. He’ll do everything he can to try and escape. To live. To beat the nightmare or at least hold off its climax until maybe, please God, he can wake up safe and away and in Mina’s arms.

But the thought is there. The rational, odds-figuring thought that, in this scenario, every single factor is stacked against him on a supernatural level. And his hope will likely drain from him long before the blood does.

#weeping wailing and howling over my good friend Jonathan Harker #he just wanted to do a good job! #he wanted to make his mentor proud and take his first big step toward a foundation that he and Mina could get married with! #he wanted to bring home recipes and ghost stories and all the details of a great trip to Mina! #that's it! that's all! #and now this #jonathan harker #dracula #re: dracula #dracula daily

So, I have a slight allergy/intolerance to certain peppers, paprika included, that makes my mouth itch and gives me digestive trouble. Based on the experience of my Good Friend Jonathan Harker he also might.

We both still eat paprika again the next day tho.

#yeah bud if it makes you extra thirsty and gives you queer dreams you might have an allergy #anyway get that recipe for mina #dracula daily

[silver-colour]

Mr Harker???

Jonathan??? Are you okay dear? You've hardly described your food

#tell us about the Paprika jonathan #we went to hear it all #dracula daily #draculiveblog #get the recipe for Mina Jonathan #the world needs to know

[astro-b-o-y-d]

Thinking about Mina in the daytime for once, and I've decided that if she ever played Animal Crossing, these would be two of her favorite characters

#Hayley Speaks #*Mina voice* They are so gender! :) #She says hi to Celeste EVERY time she's on her island and gets ALL the star recipes #And you know she spent SO LONG trying to find Ione #Mabel probably gave her plenty of Nook Miles Tickets #She would THRIVE in this game

September 23rd

Mina: Ok! I'll just read his journal like a bedtime story and find out just what had frightened him so

Mina, the next morning, having not slept at all: oh my god it's horrible

#dracula daily #dracula #bram stokers dracula #mina harker #jonathan harker #like I get reading it when Jonathan's not around since he asked for that #but if you know that whatever happened was so horrible he had a mental break #why read it before bed #that's just a recipe for disaster #but hey! the plot is finally plotting!

[nataliewaitegf]

it makes me so happy when characters don’t know something big is about to happen so they give as much weight to small parts of their lives as they will give the big things later on

#jonathan not knowing he’s about to get dracula’d: i have GOT to remember to get these recipes for mina #🤍 #📖 #dracula

[sprucelogsarepeak]

Love that the first installment of Dracula Daily is literally just like. A food blog

#mmm i had this food called paprika hendl and then for breakfast i had mamaliga and i reeeally liked the impletata #i must get the recipe for mina! #dracula daily #seems rad its my first time reading dracula

[theda-rison]

Jonathan at the end of today’s journal entry:

(Mem., is this diary too dramatique?)

#dracula daily #at least that's how I read it #'mem. the count is weird and we keep going to sleep at 5am' #'still need to get that paprika chicken recipe for mina'

[cjinxrun]

Yes I AM very invested in Jonathan Harker's food tour of eastern Europe and I will be enormously disappointed if there is no resolution to this plot thread in the rest of the story, how did you know?

#dracula daily #DOES mina get the recipe for paprika hendl #will she make it for jonathan #does it taste the same and nearly kill her poor english fiance #or does she get the wrong paprika #im mildly concerned about my friend jonathan yes but the RECIPES #jonathan harker #mina murray

[wheresjonno]

I must have misspelled it somewhere between google maps and my spreadsheet - thank you for the correction! Sadly, I cannot edit polls :/

Now I am enchanted by the idea of him running across the countryside stealing rakott krumplis from windowsills and developing an opinion on every paprika dish in a straight line from Castle Dracula to the Bay of Biscay. Once a food blogger always a food blogger. The new Carpathian cryptid wants your recipes. He's smarter than the av-er-age bear werewolf and after your pick-a-nick basket. Spicy pepper makes him go zoom zoom like a cartoon character. He's like Guy Fieri only instead of Diners, Drive-throughs and Dives it's kolbász, krumpli, and dear God that's a lot of wolves.

#dracula daily #mem get recipe for mina #kalocsa #sorry for the misspelling

I was very happy to see Mina appear. I like Mina. She's fun. Want more of my good friend Mina Murray.

#owner wjb #wjb rambles #dracula daily #dracula #Mina is the only reason my platonic attraction isn't homoplatonic. actually aren't fictonal characters exceptions. wait. #that prior tag reads like an existential crisis. two cups cause existentials here #TO CLARIFY THE TWO CUPS IS TWO CUPS OF COFFEE. I MENTALLY TYPED THAT. #get those recipes girl

Van Helsing could introduce the crew to Dutch chocolate for valentines'

Absolutely! Jonathan and Mina have both shown an interest in sampling new things, so I bet trying to put together some special dinner and dessert of non-English goodies in general.

#Jonathan seems to be the greater foodie of the two but I can't not picture both of them getting giddy over new recipes #valentine's day #chocolate #abraham van helsing #jonathan harker #mina harker #dracula
