Sikoroot

Sikoroot was a culinary herb. In the kitchen of Maz Kanata's castle, the Volpai sous-chef Robbs Ely incorporated a touch of sikoroot into a sauce intended for bantha meat, not long before he met his death at the hands of the pirate BD-3000 luxury droids J'Nell and Carly. Investigating Ely's demise, Strono Tuggs, the castle's head chef, identified the subtle presence of sikoroot while examining a sauce sample left on the keypad to Ely's room by one of the droids. Later, chef Jom Jarusch recreated the sikoroot-infused sauce using Robbs Ely's recipe book during a cooking contest orchestrated by Tuggs to expose Ely's murderer, leading Tuggs to initially suspect Jarusch, though the chef had merely acquired the book.
