About BreathOfTheCauldron

From Thunderstore

Season prepared foods with different ingredients, discover hidden perfect pairings, and create improved variants.

Breath of the Cauldron

Cook normally. Season experimentally.

Breath of the Cauldron expands Valheim's cooking without replacing its existing recipes.

Cook food as usual, then return to the Cauldron and season prepared dishes with different ingredients.

Each seasoning belongs to one of four categories:

  • Sweet — improves Health
  • Spicy — improves Stamina
  • Meaty — improves Health regeneration
  • Thick — increases food duration

Most combinations provide a small, predictable improvement.

But some dishes have hidden Perfect Pairings.

Find the right ingredient and you'll create a special + version with a stronger, hand-tuned bonus.

Supported foods

Version 0.1.0 includes:

  • Carrot soup
  • Deer stew
  • Turnip stew
  • Black soup
  • Onion soup
  • Serpent stew

How to use

  1. Cook a supported food normally.
  2. Open the Cauldron.
  3. Switch to the Season tab.
  4. Select the prepared food.
  5. Add a seasoning ingredient.
  6. Experiment.

The game will tell you the seasoning category of an ingredient.

It will not tell you the Perfect Pairing.

Food families

By default, different variants of the same food cannot be stacked together.

For example, eating Carrot soup prevents you from also eating Sweet carrot soup or Sweet carrot soup +.

This behavior can be disabled in the configuration.

Configuration

Allow Multiple Variants Of Same Food

Default: false

When enabled, base, seasoned, and Perfect Pairing variants of the same food may be eaten together.
