Combining all Three things to Cook

First off you should Forage and Botanize, now create your Clay Bowl and BEFORE you heat up the Clay Bowl put the Foraged And Botanized Item in the Bowl then put it in a Campfire. ( If you already have a Completely Finished bowl just put your food in the bowl and put it in the campfire) Note that you can add more than just one Foraged and Botanized Item in a bowl for a Larger Casserole. We'll cover the recipe for steak on this page as it's currently the most useful recipe.

Steak

Ok, First off you will need to fish using a Fishing Rod or Fine Fishing Rod Once you got a couple of fishes put them in a Frying Pan (Using a pottery bowl is possible but hard to find the right combination to make it a steak.) now add one botanized spice to your frying pan and just put it in your Fire and wait :) Eat up! Steak is the most nutritious food available in Wurm.

For those who only have pottery bowls to work with, the easiest way to make steaks is to add 1 Roach with 1 or more fishes in a pottery bowl. Roaches are a 0.1kg fishy you sometimes catch.

My Cooking Wont Go up.. why?!

You are probably cooking too high or low difficulty food, at Cooking Level 1 cook a couple of 3-5 Difficulty Foods, to check the difficulty Right Click then Examine the bowl it will also tell you what the food will turn out as. Try cooking lots of stews at once to gain cooking skill faster.

Gaining cook skill is a mystery, although Rolf has posted on the forums the way it should work, what works for one player doesn't always work for another. Use trial and error to find what works best for you.
