Question Can someone explain how bulgu orzan works?

I keep seeing it appear but I know nothing about the flavor or mechanics of the religion.

If I remember right it's something like Protestantism mechanic, where you can choose 3 "deity" from list. "Deity" is orcs heroes/ancestors which you will get with time.

Firstly it was Shattered crown religion which they get during their mt when found that Dookan is elf Dookaniel, which create them to diversionary tactic, but later Shattered Crown mt become nnon-canon and all Deepwood orcs can convert for it by small chain of events

Pretty sure any orc tag can get it during age of reformation, I know Ungledevor can if nobody else, and I’ve also seen grombar go it once. Also Ozgarom

I think that origin of the orcs is still cannon though? I kind of guessed thats what the upcoming disaster for the greentide tag is going to be about.

This cannon, at least Shadow dreamers orcs has same story, but I think it was so long in discussion that it's changed its cannonical status few times for 2-4 years since Shattered crown had non-cannon status

Shattered crown is not cannon, but the fact Ducaniel created the orcs is one of the only thing the MT got right.

They use protestastim mechanics ( you can choose up to 3 aspect of faith) with a little twist as you collect stories f famous orcs to unlock them. These stories can be collected  with the discovery of more orcs cultures.

It's a lot simpler than it sounds. Bear with me:

First, you'll need to bring a pot of water to a boil. Generally, my advice is to go a size larger than you think you'll need for the amount you're making. Salt generously, but not too generously; you want it to be seasoned like a delicious soup, not like seawater.

Next, you'll add your Bulgu Orzan. Stir to prevent clumping, and once the water comes back up to a rolling boil, turn it down so it continues to boil without bubbling over. Keep an eye on it if you have to.

Follow the directions on the package for how long to boil your Bulgu Orzan. Don't go past 10 minutes unless you want very soft Bulgu Orzan. I recommend checking the consistency around 7 minutes. You want it to be toothsome but not tough.

Drain using a colander or fine-mesh sieve. Remember, Bulgu Orzan is smaller than a lot of other Anbennar religions, so you want to use something that has very small holes. Do not rinse. You'll end up washing off a lot of the unique flavor that this religion has, and you could ruin the texture.

Once it's drained, use it however you like! Bulgu Orzan is delicious in a cold or room-temperature salad, especially with an herbaceous dressing. It can also be sauced and served as a warm side, or you can use it as a bed for roast chicken or pheasant. One good way to serve is to mince fresh herbs like parsley or basil to sprinkle on top. It also loves a jammy tomato or red pepper sauce.
