Cooking up a watch party for 'True Blood' Finale
HBO's “True Blood” comes to the bloody end of its fifth season at 8 p.m. Sunday, meaning hard-core fans will be as wont to throw a watch party as Russell Edgington is to toss back faerie-blood shots.
Just in time for the finale and the coinciding watch party, I've scored recipes from the new cookbook inspired by the campy vampire telenovella called “True Blood: Eats, Drinks, and Bites from Bon Temps.”
Well-known New Orleans chef Marcelle Bienvenu has put together 85 recipes inspired by the stories of individual characters from Sookie Stackhouse to my favorite character, Lafayette Reynolds.
While Bienvenu supplies the recipes, background text is provided by show creator Alan Ball and Gianna Sobol with photos from Alex Farnum and contribution from food writer Karen Sommer Shallett.
While moody teen vampires, werewolves and humans with angst in their pants have nearly erased the memory of Bram Stoker's truly monstrous Count Dracula, “True Blood” does a good job of soaping it up like “Twilight” whilst maintaining the horrific edge that keeps us on the edge of our seats.
Produced by Alan Ball (“American Beauty,” “Six Feet Under”), “True Blood” is based on “The Southern Vampire Mysteries” series of novels by Charlaine Harris.
