Details of Notable Additions

Base Items

Key crafting components include Steel Bowls for soups and stews, Empty Jars for jellies, and buckets of salt obtained by smelting water buckets. Ingredients like raw and prepared rice, ginger root, cinnamon, and gelatin expand cooking options. Turkey feathers and eggs serve as alternatives in crafting.

New Berries

Nine new berry bushes grow naturally, restoring 3 hunger points and eaten faster than standard food. Some berries have special effects; for example, ghostberries cause nausea, and tofflenut berries produce sap that can be refined into syrup.

Fruits and Vegetables

Multiple new fruits and vegetables are added, with vegetables restoring 2 hunger points and fruits restoring 4. Seeds are mostly gathered from wild plants or by harvesting dry shrubs and leaf litter. Notable crops include corn, tomatoes, bell peppers in various colors, garlic, lettuce, root vegetables like turnips and parsnips, and fruits such as green apples, plums, and cherries.

Baked Goods

A wide assortment of new baked items enriches the culinary experience. This includes pies (which can be placed and eaten like cakes), muffins, donuts, cookies, and breads. Recipes accommodate any egg variant for flexibility.

Jellies and Juices

Jellies restore 6 hunger points with low saturation, crafted using empty jars, fruits, and sugar. Juices restore 4 hunger points with poor saturation, crafted from empty bottles, fruits, and sugar. Some, like chorus fruit jelly and juice, grant teleportation effects, while ghostberry variants cause nausea.

New Meats

Several new meats are introduced, sourced from new mobs such as turkeys, camels, and striders. Each meat can be consumed raw or cooked for improved benefits. Turkey meat can also be crafted into turkey legs.

Plants and Crops

The addon adds numerous new plants, including agave (found in badlands), lavender variants, mustard bushes, nasturtiums, crocus flowers, and various wild crops like wild carrots, onions, potatoes, grains, and rice. Plants generate naturally in specific biomes and can be harvested or silk-touched for collection.

There are 22 fully functional crops that grow on farmland near water and light, similar to vanilla crops. Seeds can be found by breaking leaf litter, dry shrubs, or trading with wandering traders.

Tips

• Use bundles in survival mode to efficiently manage the large variety of new items.
• Refer to the in-game guidebook for detailed recipes and plant locations.
• Explore diverse biomes to find unique crops and berries.
