==Raw edibles==
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
At the start of the game, without any infrastructure, the player only has access to foraged or hunted food that can be eaten raw in order to maintain the player's {{ll|Satiety|satiety}}. However, the player should not rely on these for overly long, as once harvested, naturally occurring foodstuffs are either gone for good, or require a long time to regrow.

The following table lists all the food items that can be eaten raw:

==Advanced cooking==
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
Advanced cooking techniques can greatly increase the food value of ingredients, and can potentially achieve several thousands of satiety points in a single food item. Additionally, it allows the player to make meals out of multiple ingredients, which can potentially supply multiple nutrition groups at he same time. Whenever possible, it is recommended that the player uses advanced cooking techniques.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
===Cooking meals===
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
Cooking a meal is an advanced cooking method that increases the food values of all ingredients used and provides additional benefits and convenience. Cooked meals can be kept fresh for very long times in sealed crockpots; eating meals will outright halt satiety loss for a time; eating warm meals will warm the player up; and the player will never waste any food from a meal when it provides more satiety than they need. Instead, they simply leave a partially-eaten serving that can be finished at a later time.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
To begin, craft at least one {{ll|bowl|bowl}} and one {{ll|cooking pot|cooking pot}} using the {{ll|clay forming|clay forming}} mechanic, and fire them like all ceramics in a {{ll|pit kiln|pit kiln}}. Placing the fired cooking pot into the firepit input slot (upper left) will open up an additional four-slot inventory above the input slot, in which ingredients can be combined into one of the five available meal types. The meal type players create is determined by which two "required" ingredients are placed into the cooking pot first.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
* '''To cook a single serving of a meal''': place one of each required item into two separate cooking pot slots (this defines the meal type). For example, a porridge requires "two grain", so a player must add two individual pieces of grain in any two input slots in the cooking pot. Placing two grain in one input slot of the cooking pot ''will not'' create a porridge. Adding "optional" ingredients in the other two input slots of the cooking pot will increase the nutrition value and satiation of the meal depending on which items are added. When a valid meal recipe (combining correct ingredients) is placed into the input slots, a message will appear in the cooking pot dialog box informing players about what type of meal will be created after cooking.
* '''To cook multiple servings of a meal''': increase the number of ingredient items added to all slots equally. The cooking pot allows players to cook up to 6 servings of any meal at a time. When creating multiple servings all the items in the input slots must be increased by the same amount, or the food will not cook!
*'''To cook meals requiring liquids''': liquids like water or honey can be added in 1L increments with a bucket, or 0.1L increments with a bowl - however the 0.1L increments are for now only required for jam made from honey. While holding the container with the mouse, {{LMB}} to add one portion, {{RMB}} to remove it again.
* '''To fill a bowl''': A bowl holds one meal portion and may be filled from a cooking pot or food storage crock. To fill a bowl, place the container of cooked food onto a solid surface. With the empty bowl in the active hand use {{RMB}} on the cooking pot or crock. Bowls and crocks may be filled with meals while the cooking pot is in the firepit. Bowls of food may be carried in player inventories, stored in stationary containers, and placed on shelves. ''Bowls cannot be filled from crocks on shelves.''
* '''To eat a meal''': Food may be consumed from a filled bowl. With the filled bowl in an active hotbar slot, eat using {{RMB}}. Players will eat until full, which may leave partial portions of food in the bowl. 
* '''To store meals''': Four portions of any cooked meal can be stored in an empty crock. Place the pot onto the ground or table and right click the pot with an empty crock to transfer meals to the storage crock. Storage crocks may be sealed for long term storage using fat or wax in the crafting grid. Crocks may also be carried in player inventories, stored in stationary containers, and placed on shelves.

1 Liquids can be added to the pot with a bucket (1L portions), jug (0.3L portions), or bowl (0.1L portions). Pick up the liquid container with your cursor and drag it over an empty spot in the cooking pot. Use {{LMB}} to add one portion, {{RMB}} to remove one portion.

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
===Meal food values===
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
The satiety received from eating meals is equal to the sum of its ingredients. The ingredients added to create the meal determine how much satiety of each class of nutrition the player receives. In addition, the food values of most ingredients are increased via cooking, as shown in the table below.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
Pickled variants of listed ingredients can be used, but provide only their tooltip-listed food value, without gaining any bonus from meals.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
Ingredients not listed in this table cannot be used in cooking pot meals.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
'''Note:''' for every 100 satiation filled by consuming a meal, an additional 30 seconds passes before the player's satiety bar starts dropping again for any reason. Consuming a large meal can result in more than five minutes of completely free healing, sprinting, heavy armor wearing, or other strenuous tasks.

1 Field vegetables include carrots, parsnips, onions, turnips, and bell peppers. 
2 Tree fruits include apples, mangoes, oranges, peaches, pears, and pomegranates. 
3 Ingredients that restore player health when eaten raw, such as saguaro fruit, lose this benefit when cooked. However, cooking a poisonous mushroom does not remove its harmful effects - the meal will still damage the player!

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
Baking is an advanced cooking method that revolves around dough, the creation of which requires some setup. A {{ll|quern|quern}} must be available, which requires metal tools to craft. Additionally, a {{ll|clay oven|clay oven}} should be set up for baking, as not all recipes can be baked in the firepit, and the results there are always subpar. Plus, a {{ll|Wooden bucket|wooden bucket}}, a {{ll|Jug|jug}} or a {{ll|Bowl|bowl}} is needed to be filled with water. Finally, a farm is required to consistently supply useful amounts of grain, as wild crops are nonrenewable, mature extremely slowly, and reset their growth after reaching maturity.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
In return, baking is one of the best ways to process grains that exists in the game, with up to a five-fold yield multiplier compared to eating the raw grain.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
To create {{ll|dough|dough}}, prepare flour by using a quern to grind grain, then mix the flour with water.
</div><ol>
<li>{{Using|Open}} the quern GUI and add grain into the input slot on the left of the quern.</li>
<li>Hold {{Using|interact}} on the top of the quern to grind the grain into flour, which will appear in the output slot on the right of the quern. During later stages of the game, a {{ll|Mechanical_Power|windmill}} may be used to drive the quern.</li>
<li>In the crafting grid, combine a bucket of water and flour to create dough. Each flour item will consume one unit of water from the bucket (1L).</li>
</ol>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
Two foods can be baked at the moment: {{ll|bread|bread}} and {{ll|pie|pie}}. Both of them represent a significant advantage over consuming grain as {{ll|porridge|porridge}}, and fully-filled pies can grant enormous nutrition with long spoilage times. Each serving of pie also halts the hunger meter for 30 seconds, greatly helping players with high hunger rates due to equipping heavy armor or offhand items.
