Sometimes you want to keep one or more of the ingredients, but convert them to a different item after crafting. For example, when crafting a honey-sulfur poultice, the player needs a bowl filled with honey, but the bowl is not consumed to craft it. Instead the bowl of honey is turned into an empty bowl. This is accomplished by adding the <code>returnedStack</code> property to the ingredient. This property's value needs to contain a <code>type</code> and <code>code</code> just like the standard ingredient properties. This tells the recipe which item to give the player back.

Continuing with the honey-sulfur poultice example, a bowl of honey as an ingredient looks like <code>"B": { type: "block", code: "bowl-honey" }</code>, but the player would lose the bowl if the recipe were written this way. We need to add <code>returnedStack</code> to the ingredient's properties and indicate which item to replace it with. In this case, the player should receive an empty bowl in place of the bowl of honey <code>returnedStack: { type: "block", code: "bowl-burned" }</code>. This property is placed alongside the <code>type</code> and <code>code</code> properties of an ingredient. Putting it all together:
