You are the Innkeeper or perhaps the Butler or even some other forgotten face, you may may need to know how to cook for your fellow man or yourself- to ward off the starvation. You will need the help of a hunter and a soilson to get the most out of your ingredients.
Most of this is right from the stone keep wiki, I plan on redoing most of this so that it is easier to follow and has pictures for all the food things. - Cannibal Hunter
When you are cooking you will need to have several things.
- Table : Sounds basic, but foodstuffs need to be sliced on a table. You can't do it on the ground, or in your hand.
- Oven : You can feed ovens with wood and light it with a flint like any other furnace.
- Pan : Ditto as ovens, except you can fry things over a fire.
- Pot : Fill a pot with water (make sure to check it has 33oz in it), set it on a hearth, and wait for it to boil - it will make the sound of bubbling water when it's boiling.
- Cleaver/knife: What you use to cut foodstuff up.
- Rolling pin: Used to roll out dough. Essential for pie-making.
- Spoon: Used to mix milk and make butter with.
- Bucket: You can use this to transfer water to powder, and to mix salt with milk.
You also have bowls, which you can use to hold soup, and trays and platters. Trays will collect all the items on your table for easy serving, and you can place certain dishes on platters to make your foodie experience that much fancier.
Food is a wonderful thing, but there are several things you should know about it.
When most food is out in the open, it will spoil. Spoiled food, when eaten, will make your character sick. To avoid food spoilage, store your perishables in chests. You should have chests just about everywhere if you're in town, so store your food there and keep it closed.
Some food such as salumoi, raisins, and handpies, do not spoil when they are left out for very long periods of time. Pies also do not spoil until they are cut into slices.
If, for example, you have made a pie and add it to the oven to bake, it will take a brief amount of time to be finished baking. Don't leave the room while something is cooking. When your food is done and you are near it, you will smell a wonderful armoa, that's your food done cooking! and a subtle change in the food sprite in the oven.
If you don't take the food out of the oven (or pan) fast enough, your item will turn into a burned mess. This is not edible by anyone! Make sure to watch your cooking food!
