All food items in Enshrouded that you can cook, explored
Food items in Enshrouded work similarly to other RPGs. Once consumed, these can give you temporary boosts to certain stats and abilities. The world of Enshrouded is an unforgiving one. Without proper resource management and power-ups, you will soon fall prey to countless horrors and hardships that are all around you.
That is why, having an inventory of consumable food items in Enshrouded is so important — they can give you the much-needed upper hand in tough situations and increase your chances of coming out alive in most encounters. In this guide, we have shared everything you will need to know about cooking food, consuming it, and all available recipes in the game.

Food items in Enshrouded boost certain attributes of your character for a limited time. If you look at the top left-hand side of your HUD, you will find three circles. These are your food slots. When you eat something, it will take up one slot, meaning you can have three active food items at a time. However, if you unlock the Desert Stomach skill, you will have an extra food slot.
There are three main methods of cooking, which will get unlocked one by one as you progress through the game:
Campfire or Fireplace
Oven
Farmer
Campfire or Fireplace
In the early stages, your only option for cooking will be a Campfire or Fireplace. This method lets you grill single items on a stick, providing basic buffs. Try grilling Wolf Meat and Red Mushroom in it to get the best buffs possible.

Oven
As you advance, you’ll unlock the recipe for an Oven, which allows you to combine multiple ingredients to create more complex dishes. The Oven is a solid choice for cooking mid-game but is eventually outclassed by the Farmer’s crafting abilities.
Farmer
Later in your journey, you'll unlock the Farmer, who offers a crafting menu for creating top-tier meals. These dishes provide the best buffs available, thanks to exclusive recipes and combined ingredient effects.
Other than unlocking these cooking methods you will also need to complete the Almanac of Plants and Seedlings survivor quest as well as achieve the "Sheltered" status to get access to all the cooking recipes available in Enshrouded.
