Recipes

Recipes we can verify

A short list of recipes with sourced inputs and values — and an explicit list of what we will not invent.

The short version

This is not a complete recipe database. It is the subset we can tie to a source. If a recipe has no verified ingredient list, it is named on the cooking page but not presented here as a formula.

Our recipe rule

A recipe enters this page only if we have (a) the dish or item name, (b) its ingredients or input, and (c) a source that is either official or clearly labelled as demo/beta. A name alone is not a recipe. A screenshot of a menu without quantities is not a recipe. We would rather have a short page than a confident fiction.

Cooking recipes with verified values

Values reported from the demo and the April–May 2026 closed beta.

Cooking spends a battery charge. The profit column is therefore gross, not net of power.

Station and tool recipes we can source

Only the Battery Lv.2 inputs are fully sourced. The other rows are included to show what is missing, not to imply a formula.

Recipe names without quantities

The beta Cooking Station database lists dishes by station level. We reproduce the names because they are useful for planning, but not the quantities because we cannot verify them all:

Beta recipe names from the community Cooking Station database. Ingredient quantities are not all published.
LevelDishes
Lv.1Carrot Cake, Carrot Soup, Chef Salad, Croissant, Fries, Pancakes, Spaghetti al Pomodoro, Waffles
Lv.2Banana Curry, Chocolate Cake, Cinnamon Rolls, Ratatouille, Shakshuka, Mushroom Soup
Lv.3Baba Ganoush, Congee, Gimbap, Miso Soup, Nasi Lemak, Omurice, Radish Kimchi, Rice Pudding, Tamago Sushi

The same database reports station upgrades through bundles: Forest Cook at the Overgrowth Research Station and Urban Eats at the Museum Research Station. Bundle requirements are unverified.

What is missing

  • Full ingredient quantities for most dishes.
  • Cooking times and station-level requirements for every recipe.
  • Food buffs or effects, if any. The official pages do not describe them.
  • Tailoring, Carpentry and Project Station recipe lists.
  • Early Access recipe changes.

When Early Access launches, these are the first pages we will re-check. A recipe that was correct in the beta can be wrong on 3 November.

Submit a correction

This staging build does not collect submissions. For now, the standard is simple: a correction needs a page URL, the build, and a source. A screenshot of the crafting menu with the quantities visible is a source. “I remember it differently” is not.

Sources and checks

Checked 2026-10-23. Factual claims are drawn from the sources below; demo and beta values are labelled because they may change at Early Access. Recommendations are ours.

Only recipes with a sourced ingredient list. Beta recipe names are separated from verified formulas.

We do not publish a recipe, price, stat or mechanic without a source. If something is missing, it is marked unverified rather than guessed.
