CookZ

This is a very simple mod that adds some recipes to be used with the pan and the pot/cauldron.

I appreciate any feedback or suggestions related to bugs or content.

How to use this mod

Just use the pot/cauldron or the pan as you normally would. If no recipe fits the ingredients, the ingredients will be cooked as usual. If a recipe is met, all ingredients will be removed from the cooking equipment, and the resulting dish will be added.

Packaging materials

For some recipes, packaging is needed. Empty cans or boxes can be crafted and need to be placed in the inventory slots of the pot, cauldron, or pan.

metal sheet + hacksaw -> 10 empty cans  
paper + paper -> empty box  
bark + any axe or knife -> empty box  

Recipes

Listed here are only a couple of recipes. To see all recipes, you can craft an in-game cookbook using two pieces of paper. If attachments, water, and ingredients match a recipe, then all items will get a green selection border.

Pan:

4 x potato + 1 x lard + 1 x empty box -> fried potatoes box  
1 x fish fillet + 2 x potato + 1 x lard + 1 x empty box -> fish and chips box  
3 x any meat + 1 x lard + 1 x empty can -> mystery meat can  

Pot/cauldron with at least 500 ml water (ALL water is removed in the cooking process):

2 x potato + 1 x green bell pepper + 1 x any meat + 1 x empty can -> goulash can  
1 x rice + 2 x any mushroom + 1 x empty box -> mushroom risotto box
2 x lard + 2 x powdered milk -> makeshift cheese  

Pot/cauldron without water:

6 x plum -> plum marmalade  
2 x pig steak + 1 x lard + 1 x empty can -> tactical bacon can (also works in pan)  
1 x guts + 1 x cow steak -> 2 x beef sausage

FAQ

• Q: Will you support ingredients from OtherMod?
• A: Not officially – I don’t want to add dependencies on other mods. In some cases, the DayZ inheritance structure may allow compatibility, but this is not guaranteed to work or remain stable.
