Creation

Salt

Salt is created by grinding halite stones in a quern . 1 halite stone produces 2 pieces of salt.

Halite stones can be obtained by mining halite deposits that rarely generate in the world, or by trading with the commodities and survival goods traders .

Brine

Brine is created by mixing 2L of water and 1 piece of salt in a barrel . A maximum of 50L of brine can be created in a single barel, but the materials must be in the correct ratio.

Usage

Salt curing

1 piece of meat and 2 pieces of salt can be sealed in a barrel for 20 days to make cured meat . Cured meat provides 75% of the satiety of cooked meat and lasts 3.4 years.

Pickling

1 vegetable and 1L of brine can be sealed in a barrel for 14 days to make pickles . Pickles retain 80% of their original satiety and last 3.1 months.

In the third step of the cheese making process, 5L of curdled milk and 1 piece of salt be sealed in a barrel for 1 day to make 5L of cottage cheese . Cottage cheese retains 93% of the satiety of milk and lasts 10 days.

In the fourth step, 25L of cottage cheese and 5 pieces of salt can be mixed to make 1 wheel of raw salted cheese , which will age into either cheddar cheese or blue cheese . The final product retains only 27% or 22% of the satiety of cottage cheese, but lasts over a year.
