In this Enshrouded Cooking and Food Guide, we'll tell you how food works, how to cook it, and how you can make every cooking recipe!
An army marches on its stomach, and Enshrouded is no different. A cool Glider and Flame Altar power-ups won't help much if you're not getting every buff you can. Cooking food will make you even more powerful (albeit for a limited time) -- read on to learn all about cooking and food!
How Food Works in Enshrouded
Much like Valheim, you have a limited number of "Food Slots" at the top left of the screen. You can only eat 3 foods at a time, but you can add a fourth Food Slot by taking the "Dessert Stomach" Skill in the Survivor Skill Tree.
Enshrouded is a little different than Valheim's system, though -- you can't eat two foods from the same group. For example, Purple Berries and Strawberries are both in the "Fruit" group, so you can only eat one of them at a time.
How to Cook
In the early game, you can only roast a handful of items over a Campfire. Progressing a little further will unlock other cooking stations such as the Oven.
For the most part, though, you're going to be doing most of your cooking through the Farmer NPC.
How to Unlock More Cooking Recipes
The main way to unlock more cooking recipes in Enshrouded is by finding new types of resources in the wild. That said, you'll also need to have the appropriate workbenches to make these items; you'll unlock more of these by following the quests given to you by the Farmer NPC.
