This mod aims to bring some life to cooking without overriding base game cooking.
This is a learning project that is still growing.
Dont be shy to share feedback or ideas!

Currently, this mod adds:

Cooking Counter, the main station to cook up those tasty dishes!

A Press, to squeeze out all the yummy juices!

A composter, turn stacks of veggies into poop!

A new Bucket, that doesnt deplete water source blocks and is used in all our recipies!

Counters, a Fridge (63 storage!), and a Smoke stack!

Over 17 Unique food buffs! Such as...
•Underwater breathing
•Speed Increase
•Poison Resistance
and more!

Juices and Jams!

A new Crop, the Beet(with eternal seed!)

And over (currently) 20+ yummy dishes for you to make! Food Buffs included!
(All ZC Dishes can be added to your offhand [Z] slot to be eatten on the go! Does replace blocking)

More content to come! Hopefully we will be releasing every friday to spice up your kitchens!
