Bowl: Difference between revisions

<!-- Infobox goes here -->

The '''bowl''' is a functional block made by players. It is primarily used as an eating utensil so that players can eat meals made in [[cooking pot]]s, as well as being used to create [[oil lamp]]s.

== Creation ==

Bowls must be made by players through [[clay forming]], using any type of [[clay]]. Once formed, clay bowls must be fired in a [[pit kiln]] before use.

== Usage ==

Bowls can be used to store liquids such as [[water]], [[milk]], [[honey]] and others. Bowls can hold a maximum of 1L, and can be used to move liquids between other containers such as [[bucket]]s and [[jug]]s. Their low capacity makes them useful while cooking certain types of meals in the [[cooking pot]] that require relatively small quantities of liquid, such as [[jam]].

Bowls can also be used to take portions of meals out of cooking pots and [[crock]]s, by equipping an empty bowl and right-clicking the filled crock or cooking pot. This is the only way to get an edible portion of food from either of those utensils.

Bowls are also a crafting ingredient for creating oil lamps, alongside [[fat]]. Oil lamps are a useful early game source of light - while dim, they never burn out and cannot be extinguished by rain.
