A kitchen is operated by a dwarf with the Template:L Template:L enabled. It is used to cook meals and render fat from Template:L animals into Template:L. Meals do Template:L and any Template:Ls from raw plants are lost.

Cooking meals drastically increases the food's value. If you cook 15 Template:L worth 60, and your cook creates a masterpiece, you will receive 15 meals worth 2640.

Types of meals

There are three different types of food to be cooked:

  • Easy meal will use two ingredients and will result in biscuits.
  • Fine meal uses three ingredients and will result in stew.
  • Lavish meal uses four ingredients and will result in roasts.

Better meals require more hauling, take longer in production, and will make your cook gaining experience slower, but it results in larger stacks of food. Also, the more variied the food is, the higher the probability a dwarf will get something he likes, and that can make the dwarf happy.

Using Liquid Ingredients

At least one stack going into a prepared meal must be a solid item. If you have only Template:L, Template:L, and Template:L, your cooking jobs will get canceled. However, a single Template:L can be cooked with dwarven ten wine, ten dwarven milk, and ten dwarven syrup to make 31 +Plump Helmet Roast+ without issue.

What to cook

You may want to adjust what your dwarves are allowed to cook. For example, your dwarves may happily cook away all the seeds you need for planting, a good way to create Template:L in the early stages of the fortress. To surpress the cooking of certain items (such as booze, seeds or tallow) go to the status screen (z key) and then go to kitchen. Every cookable and/or brewable item inyour fortress will be listed. Once you allow or forbid the cooking or brewing of some kind of product, it will be used accordingly.
