Cooking is a process of combining ingredients.
Summary[ | ]
Cooking is a process of combining various ingredients, Raw Ingredients, and/or Harvested Agricultural Substances into consumable type products with the use of a Nutrient Processor.
Food products can be used for several purposes:
- Can act as bait for fauna.
- Can be consumed for various Exosuit bonuses.
- Can be presented to Iteration: Cronus in the Space Anomaly for Nanite rewards.
- Can be fed to Organic Frigates to change their Combat/Exploration/Industry/Trade values. A food item will have different results based on which frigate it is fed to. If fed to the same frigate, it will always produce the same result.
Recipes[ | ]
01 - Prepare Baits - Baits[ | ]
Baits can be fed to fauna to allow you to harvest them for their special food product (such as Wild Milk or Sticky 'Honey').
NOTE: For mechanical fauna, Ion Battery can only be fed to them in order to either harvest Chewy Wires, ride them, or make them companions.

Additional Information[ | ]
Cooking can be a good way to farm Nanite Clusters. However, if you just want to record a specific product into your catalogue without having to cook it, all you need to do is arrange the necessary ingredients in the Nutrient Processor such that they are at a certain ratio and one step away. Once you have the desired final ingredient display in your output box, it will be recorded without any pop-ups or sound effects.
