I have a cook character myself, and I'm aware of the fact that our choices for foods are limited, since there's no easy way to get at names of food items or ingredients without flipping through the books again.
Now that it's been mentioned to me a couple times by others, I'd say it's time to start a collection. I will make a cookbook for Redwall's kitchen, perhaps for the library as well, but I need input from others. I'm willing to program the "book" to be usable, but I don't have the time to do that and collect info on top of the fifty gazillion other things I'm doing at work and at home.
Please go to <a href="http://redwall.muck.limitless.org/Members/Marie/clover">this page</a> to add your ideas to what others have given. If you pull things out of a book, let me know that so I know it's officially IC. If you just have an idea that you'd like to see edited to fit into this, let me know that too. I'm happy to work with either.
I'm going to have to have to decide how we deal with the issues of butter, cheese, flour, etc. since they don't mention cows anywhere, or a mill anywhere nearby. Since there was definitely cheese in the books, that's okay. I believe there was butter, and flour, but please give me your comments about items like these on the ideas page.
I'd appreciate it if any of your ideas went on the page I've created, rather than here. That way everything is there. Thanks.

I think the absence of cows was explained away with Greensap milk, which I assume comes from some sort of plant. It's also possible not to have a mill around, would just have to crush grain by hand with some grinding stones.
Of course there are farms about so it's possible could have had a mill somewhere...character that lives in a mill, that'd be novel home ;)
