Grilled ormachek was a food item that gave the Mon Calamari Ghal Tarpfen a rash. In 231 BBY, she mentioned it to the Soikan Velko Jahen while joking that saying "please" also resulted in a rash for the Mon Cal.
In 9 BBY, the Latero pilot Greez Dritus suggested to Jedi Knight Cal Kestis that they eat ormachek as well as colo claw roe and deep-fried nuna legs once they reached the planet Tanalorr. Kestis was dubious that Dritus could procure all of the items, but Dritus was confident that he could.
Ormachek was first mentioned in the current Star Wars canon in the first installment of "Starlight: Past Mistakes," a short story written by Cavan Scott as part of the Star Wars: The High Republic multimedia project's Phase I. The story was published in the 205th issue of the Star Wars Insider magazine as part of the Star Wars: The High Republic: Starlight serialized fiction on September 21, 2021.

Kube-McDowell, where it was also associated with a Mon Calamari: Admiral Gial Ackbar. It then made a full appearance in the 2003 Sony Online Entertainment massively multiplayer online role-playing game, Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided.
