Any: Any herb
As you can see from the recipe it tells you what cookers you can cook a meal in, what kind of container it requires to be cooked in and you can see a few other areas that I will explain. When an ingredient is Mandatory, it means that ingredient must be inside the container to cook that recipe. One or more, means you need at least 1 of those listed items inside the container, but you can have more up to the limit of what the container will hold. Optional here is showing we could add one Salt, but we're not required too, Lastly it shows we can add any herb. For this recipe, we will be using 1 Cereal, 1 Mushroom, 1 Berry, 5 Vegetables and 5 Herbs and one Bread. Your Vegetables and Herbs should all be different. You don't want to use more than 1 of an ingredient with the exact same name in most cases.
To begin, add all of your ingredients listed above into a Pottery Bowl in your inventory and right click it as you did with the Baking Stone and find the 'Lore' option.
You will take your knife and right click on each Vegetable and each Herb and your mushroom to chop them. Once all your items are chopped add them to a pottery bowl in your inventory and check 'Lore' one more time. The ingredients in the pottery bowl would make a bread casserole when cooked. You will very likely get the same message as before, so you might be wondering why chop or prepare the ingredients before cooking the Casserole? When cooking, you're aiming for making food that is satisfying which fills your hunger bar and your [[CCFP]], as well as raising your nutrition levels. This is what preparing ingredients does, it increases the quality of those things without spending more resources to feed yourself.
Once all your Vegetables an ingredient is processed it becomes a different item with a different name. For instance Pea Pods. Once chopped this items name becomes 'Chopped Pea Pods' and Herbs are chopped it has undergone one step in being cooked. In practice, having the same ingredient, in this example Pea Pods, you could add them Pea Pods, Mashed Pea Pods and Chopped Pea Pods to a pottery bowl in your inventory the same dish and check each ingredient would be considered 'Loreunique' one more time. This matters for the quality of your meal that ingredients be considered unique.
