One thing that adds, well, flavor to the Harry Potter series is the wealth of food references J.K. Rowling sprinkles throughout her prose. A new book, The Unofficial Harry Potter Cookbook imagines recipes for more than 150 of these delicacies, from Paddington Burgers (found in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone) to buttered peas (from Sorcerer's Stone) to Hagrid's Bath buns (Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban). --USA Today Pop Candy Blog, October 21, 2010
