Quick Links
Many life-sim games offer the ability to cook food, and 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Palia does as well. Cooking has its own skill, and several quests require cooked dishes to complete, such as needing a Blueberry Pie in the Hunger Pains quest. Food dishes are also key to working with the game's Focus system, and keeping full means you get more experience points.
Many villagers also request or want food dishes gifted to them. In this guide, we'll dive into how the cooking process works, tell you how to acquire the crafters and what recipes they have, and explain each mini-game in cooking, so you can cook up any recipe you come across.
How To Acquire And Use A Campfire
The first cooking crafter you'll obtain is the campfire. Reth will give it to you during the tutorial quest: Cooking 101.
It will introduce you to your first few recipes, and enable you to start gaining experience in the Cooking skill, and raising your Cooking level once will let unlock the main cooking crafter, the Standard 🌼Stove.
To use the campfire, you'll need to select the recipe you want to make, and confirm the cooking. Each dish will take around 10 to 15 seconds to finish cooking, during which time you can do other activities until it's ready to pick up.

How To Cook Food Dishes
Once you've acquired at least the Stove and the Prep Station, you're able to really get into cooking.
Interacting with the stove will bring you to its own menu, where you'll see a list of your available recipes, as well as what ingredients each recipe needs, the cooking mini-games you'll be performing, and the processed versions of ingredients you'll be making.
All recipes will produce three dishes when completed.
The Standard Oven, Prep Station, and Mixing Station act as secondary crafters where you'll take regular ingredients such as an or and refine them into a cooking-only version of them.
You also have the choice to use quality versions of ingredients which increase or guarantee getting a star quality product depending on how many you use.
Some recipes, such as Macarons, might require you to use multiple Prep Stations or Mixing Stations.
Pick a recipe to cook, and the process will begin. Each recipe will give you between one and four minutes to complete all its tasks.
Multiple players can cooperate and cook a dish together, speeding up the process and allowing players to share ingredients wit♛h each other outside the request system.
Due to the time limit on completing each recipe, having all your cooking crafters in one small area saves you from having to move around a lot.
During this time, you'll need to move around between different cooking stations to prepare the ingredients. For example, if your recipe calls for Chopped Tomatoes, you'll need to move to the Prep Station and chop it up.
On the bottom of your screen, you'll see a list of the all the refined ingredients you have on you.
Some recipes will also want you to interact with them periodically during the cooking process, such as stirring them or flipping them. Not doing so can negatively impact or cause the recipe to fail.
Using Bacon-Stuffed Mushrooms as an example, the recipe asks for any , one Butter, any , one , and one . One way the cooking process can be completed would be:
- Chopping up the Tomatoes at the Prep Station.
- Chopping the Sernuk or Chapaa Meat at the Prep Station.
- Returning to the stove to flip the dish.
- Cooking the Sernuk or Chapaa Meat in the Oven to create Bacon.
- Chopping the Spice Sprouts at the Prep Station.
- Return to the Oven to collect the cooked Bacon.
- Adding all refined ingredients into the dish at the stove.
- Flipping the dish a final time to complete the process.
Every food dish in the game follows the same general process but with a lower or greater number of steps involved depending on how many ingredients it asks for.
You can multitask with certain ingredient refinements. If a recipe asks you to bake something in the oven, such as Basic Dough or Meat, you can prepare another ingredient while it processes.
How To Complete Each Cooking Mini-Game
Recipes will require refined ingredients made at the various cooking crafters, and each refined ingredient has its own minigame you'll need to complete in order to obtain it.
Some recipes also require completing one or two of the mini-games during the cooking process once one or more ingredients have been added to the dish.
