Cooking

Cooking is the process of turning ingredients, both purchased and crops obtained through farming into delicious food and drink. To be able to cook, you need to unlock the crafting room (reach the first reputation rank). Cooking requires fuel, namely wood or coal. Most cooking uses the Oven, but to make cheeses requires the purchase of a Cheesery.

Modifiers
Most recipes can have ingredients added to modify the attributes of the cooked item. Modifiers add to the sale price of the crafted item. Up to three ingredients can be added to any recipe, which can cause up to six modifiers to be added to the crafted item. An example of a six modifier option is Dual Hops, Raspberry and Honey which gives a beer: Hoppy, Juicy, Bitter, Fruity, Sour and Sweet.

Cooking Tech Tree
Beginning at Reputation 1, players gain the ability to prepare more kinds of food by acquiring talents from the Cooking Tech Tree. Talents are acquired by spending Physical, Mental, and Nature skill points. Skill points are gained by using talents: by brewing drinks, cooking food, harvesting crops, and building furniture. The look of the tech tree has changed as of version 0.4.4.

The nodes of the cooking tech tree and the foods that are gained with each talent and point costs are: Note: Cheese is not available until Reputation 11.
