[[File:Meals_Image.png|right|link=]]'''Cooking''' is the process of combining [[ingredients]] into cooked dishes made at a [[:Category:Cooking_Stations|cooking station]].

Cooked meals provide more [[energy]] than the ingredients alone, and can increase energy beyond the initial blue bar to gain a Well Fed [[Bonus]].

When interacting with a cooking station a menu of all available [[ingredients]] will appear. This includes ingredients in storage outside the ~~player~~'s ~~inventory~~ - it is not necessary to have the cooking ingredients in your backpack to use them.

The cookbook can be accessed from the cooking screen to show all discovered recipes, and new recipes can be discovered by finding recipe books or by combining [[ingredients]]. Unlike [[crafting]], it is not necessary to first learn the recipe before making a meal - if the player combines the correct ingredients they'll unlock the recipe in their cookbook after it has been made.

There are 3 classifications of [[Ingredients]] in a Recipe, and each is denoted by a colored border that displays around the Ingredient image after a Meal is prepared, or in the Recipe History: Mandatory (green), Versatile (yellow), and Unnecessary (red).

After making each recipe it will unlock in the '''Meals''' section of the Collection menu, as well as in the recipe book, where the ingredients and star level will save. Obtaining a meal as a reward will not unlock it in the '''Meals Collection'''; it must be cooked by the Player. The Energy and Star Coins values displayed in the Collection menu will reflect the lowest possible values that the meal can have.

The price multiplier can be directly applied to the sell price of ingredients to evaluate profit, and because cooking ingredients together always enhances their sell value even purchased ingredients can be combined and resold for more then they were purchased for. A popular early game method for cooking for profit is to prepare [[Soufflé]] - which is only requires components purchased from the kitchen in [[Chez Remy]]. Each [[Soufflé]] will sell for {{price|410}} more than the cost of ingredients, but it's not purely a money-in/money out transaction as each meal requires [[Coal Ore]] as well.

When preparing a recipe with ~~a Versatile~~ ingredient (for example {{ingredient|Vegetables}}), the calculated values of the prepared Meal are based on the ingredient that is used. In the Collection menu the ''price'' and ''energy'' displayed for [[#"Any" Recipes|these Meals]] are the lowest possible values for each Meal - even if these values may require separate preparations of the meal. For example, [[Veggie Pie]] displays "{{price|279}} or more" and "{{energy|634}} or more", but no single preparation of [[Veggie Pie]] can be made with that sell price/energy value combination; [[Veggie Pie]] made with [[Lettuce]] will yield {{price|279}}/{{energy|697}}, and [[Veggie Pie]] made with [[Tomato]] will yield {{price|298}}/{{energy|634}}.
