Welcome to cooking with Blacklotus

The Tools of the Trade

The First thing you'll need to do any form of cooking is a 'cooker' It will show up first in recipes when required. There are 3 cookers in the game:

The Oven. This is your primary cooker and most recipes that need a cooker can be cooked in the oven.

The Forge. While not a traditional way of cooking food, the bit of extra slag from the forge helps raise difficulty of cooked items when available as a cooker.

The Campfire. Not well known as a cooker, there are many recipes that use the campfire as their primary cooker. It can add difficulty to your recipe if available.


Once you have a cooker, the next thing you'll see in a recipe is a Container. The following items can all be considered containers.

Frying Pan, Sauce pan, Cauldron, Pottery Bowl, Baking stone, Cake tin, Roasting dish, Pie dish


Finally we have tools that manipulate our ingredients. You can find a more complete list here: cooking utensils

Knife, Spoon, Fork, Mortar and pestle, Butchering Knife, Measuring jug, Grindstone


Tutorial

Getting Prepared

I am going to ask you to follow along with me as we cook 3 basic recipes. Bread, Casserole and Finally, a Meal. You will need to gather the following items and ingredients.

Tools:

Frying Pan, Pottery Bowl, Grindstone, Knife and finally a Baking Stone. (the crafting recipes for these are in your crafting menu. If you have trouble finding marble to craft a baking stone ask in your freedom chat or check your local market for one.)

Ingredients:

3 grains

1 mushroom

5-10 Herbs

1 berry

5-10 Vegetables

1 piece of meat or 1 fish.

The Grains, Mushrooms, Herbs, Berry and Vegetables can all be found through Foraging and botanizing. Check those pages if you need help finding those ingredients.


Recipe 1: Bread

The first step in cooking is learning how the different processes work. In this Recipe you learn about preparing basic ingredients before turning them into a final product, and you will be learning about 'lore'.

Food that requires a cooker will not cook until some conditions are met. In the case of bread, you require Dough, in a Baking stone, in an oven or a campfire that is lit.

For our purposes we will be using a campfire for all of our cooking recipes.

To begin with, you will take your grindstone and make it the active item. With it you'll right click one of the grains you got ready earlier and create Flour.

The next step is turning flour into Dough. This is accomplished by using water in your inventory on the Flour and create -> Dough.

Lastly place the Dough inside the Baking Stone. Once you've done this right click on your baking stone and find the option for 'lore'

You'll see this message if you've done everything right:

 The ingredients in the baking stone would make some bread when cooked in a cooker.
 Current difficulty:15.

Once you place your Baking Stone in the campfire, you can right click it for lore again and you should get this message:

 The ingredients in the baking stone would make some bread when cooked.

To continue with your Lesson, cook 2 bread and move on to the next Recipe. You've Completed Recipe 1: Bread.

Recipe 2: Casserole

In Recipe 1: Bread We cooked 2 loafs of bread and learned the beginnings of preparing ingredients, using lore and cooking food in a campfire.

Recipe 3: Meal
