Yorkan stew represented a specific variety of stew suitable for Trandoshan consumption. In 229 BBY, while on the Nihil ship commanded by captain I'nah, the aspiring pirate known as Zyle Keem inquired of a Trandoshan Nihil about their preferred food. Although irritated by Keem, the Trandoshan revealed that they would kill to get a delicious serving of Yorkan stew.
The 2024 junior novel Escape from Valo, penned by Daniel José Older and Alyssa Wong as a contribution to the Star Wars: The High Republic multimedia project's Phase III, included a reference to Yorkan stew.
