{gha'poq} also appeared in the glossary for Diplomatic Implausibility, which was vetted by Okrand: http://klingonska.org/canon/search/?file=2001-02-17-email.txt&get=source
Another relevant word is {vIychorgh} (the "juice" or "sap" of a plant), which in some regions is used for a variety of sauces, according to KGT.
ghevI'vaD qagh vIychorgh lupong 'op 'ej 'uSu'vaD tlhatlh vIychorgh lupong 'op, *KGT*Daq 'e' 'ang *Marc Okrand*.
