How To Cook In Fields Of Mistria

Learning how to cook in Fields of Mistria is pretty straightforward, but there are few places where you can cook during your early-game days. If you're keen to try cooking some of Fields of Mistria's recipes, the best starting point is using the kitchen in Mistria's Sleeping Dragon Inn, as pictured on the map above. To start cooking, approach the stove at the back of the bar and tap the i nteract button to open up the cooking and recipes menu, which is like flicking through the pages of a pixel-style cookbook.

Here, you can cycle between all recipes or different recipe types, such as desserts, where you can select which recipe you want to make provided you have already unlocked the recipe for it, and possess the necessary ingredients in your storage, like Sesame, and the required skill and kitchen level. The above example shows you need one coconut to make Coconut Milk. It also shows it's a level one recipe that replenishes +18 stamina and +18 health when eaten, with a cooking time of 0 minutes, meaning it takes no time out of your usual day to make it, plus the required skill level and kitchen level, which in this case, are both listed as level one. However, some dishes will chop off time out of your day.

You can upgrade your cooking skills by cooking dishes, plus get additional perks like halving the cooking time of dishes by selecting cooking skill upgrades from Calderus' statue near your house.

To cook a recipe like Coconut Milk in Fields of Mistria, simply follow the below steps:

  • Click the number of dishes you wish to make.
  • Click the 'okay' button to cook - this triggers a short cutscene of your character cooking and holding up the dish, as below.

You can also purchase a kitchen from the carpenter's shop on the Eastern Road, with prices starting at 1,000 Tesserae for a level one kitchen. You can use a level one kitchen to make one or two-star dishes. Using a level one kitchen is also suitable for cooking levels 0-19, but you'll need to upgrade your kitchen to make +level 19 recipes.
