Guide to Cooking

As the Innkeep or perhaps the Butler, you will be expected to cook for the good inhabitants of Rockhill to fuel their work-filled daes. You will need the help of a hunter and a soilson to get the most out of your ingredients; or, you could just make pies the whole week.

Equipment

In a kitchen, you will need several items:

• Table: Sounds basic, but foodstuffs need to be sliced on a table. You can't do it on the ground, or in your hand.
• Oven: You can feed ovens with wood and light it with a flint like any other furnace.
• Pan: Ditto as ovens, except you can fry things over a fire.
• Cleaver/knife: What you use to cut foodstuff up.
• Spoon: Used to mix milk and make butter with.
• Bucket: You can use this to transfer water to powder, and to mix salt with milk.

Spoiling

When most food is out in the open, it will spoil. Spoiled food, when eaten, will make your character sick. To avoid food spoilage, store your perishables in chests. If you are a Maid/Butler or a Cook, you will have chests everywhere you can use for storing these perishables. Keep them closed!

Knowing When It's Done

If, for example, you have made a pie and add it to the oven to bake, it will take a brief amount of time to be finished baking. Don't leave the room while something is cooking. You will know when your food item is done by the chat notification Something smells good! and a subtle change in the food sprite in the oven.

If you don't take the food out of the oven (or pan) fast enough, your item will turn into a burned mess. This is not edible by anyone! Make sure to watch your cooking food!
