Food Crafting Guide

In Outward you need to take care of your character's health to stop them from getting negative statistics which will make them become weaker and slower. This means it is important that you continuously keep an eye on your character's hydration and food to prevent them from getting thirsty or hungry. Food must also be carefully harvested to stop them from getting ill from food poisoning. Check out our food crafting guide to learn how to make different dishes without recipes.

It is not necessary to have in-game recipes to craft food in Outward, you will be able to craft food just by having the required ingredients and by using the manual recipe function. It is recommended that you craft your meals whenever possible as doing so will allow you to save money and time as you won't have to purchase or find recipes. If you do acquire any recipes you can use them from your inventory to add them to your recipe list instantly.

The following recipes are made in a kitchen or by using a cooking pot over a fire. You can just use a fire for boiled versions of single ingredients.
