Petaldown salad was a type of salad edible to humans. In the San Tekka compound on the planet Naboo[1] in 228 BBY,[2] petaldown salad was crafted by the San Tekka family's kitchens. The dish was then served at a meal for Nihil General Abediah Viess—who had forcibly taken over the residence following the departure of its patriarchs, Vellis and Marlowe—and her captive, Cair San Tekka, a younger member of the family who engaged in anti-Nihil resistance activities. Though Cair was reluctant to dine with Viess, he mentally lamented that refusing the food would not be a wise decision for his physical well-being.[1]
Behind the scenes[]
Petaldown salad appeared in the 2024 novel Temptation of the Force, written by Tessa Gratton and published as part of the Star Wars: The High Republic multimedia project's[1] Phase III.[3]

- ↑ Star Wars: Timelines dates Starlight Beacon's destruction to 230 BBY. The implementation of the Guardian Protocols, which Star Wars: The High Republic Character Encyclopedia places in 229 BBY, took place one week after Starlight Beacon's fall according to The High Republic: Shadows of Starlight 1. As The High Republic: Temptation of the Force takes place one year and six weeks after the destruction of Starlight Beacon and its events span a few months, its events must be set in 228 BBY.
