The highest nutrition food.

Method

Making meals can be very simple: Put meat / fish and potato / corn / onion (commonly referred to as vegetables) in a frying pan and heat it up. Voila, a meal.

If there are no "vegetables" available, substitutes are possible. Bread, cheese, pumpkin or grains combined with some kind of herb are common. Salt can be used instead of an herb and will also decrease the decay of the meal by 50%. Other combinations are possible with lower or greater difficulties, just examine container before cooking to determine the difficulty and if it will become a meal or not. However, the meat/fish and frying pan are always required.

Meals have higher base difficulty than other cooking, so beginners are recommended to use stone ovens when cooking them. If difficulty isn't an issue, any fire source can be used. Experienced cooks will sometimes use campfires or stone forges to intentionally increase the difficulty.

The base QL of a meal is your hot food cooking skill, and at lower skill it will match this most of the time. As hot food cooking becomes higher, it also becomes harder and harder to maintain maximum quality. When it exceeds 70, the meal QL will drop and become more dependent on the ql of the items and the difficulty of making it (the easier the meal, the higher QL meal made)

NOTE: You can cook meals without a vegetable; using Pumpkin and Bread together with meat or fish, but you need to add atleast one spice herb (basil, belladonna, oregano, etc.). This kind of recipe is harder than the meals listed above, but it works well (especially for heavy meals; bread and pumpkins weigh a lot).
