To begin cooking, visit <name> in the kitchen of [[Dsar_of_Akkaio#Th.27_Broken_Door|Th' Broken Door]], located in the center of [[Ojaveda]]. Speak with her and you will be allowed to begin the introductory cooking quest. The purpose of this quest is two fold: to familiarizing you with the basics of cooking, such as using the [[preparation table]] and tools, and to give you the novice's cooking book. This book, "[[Working in a kitchen]]", must be equipped in your mind slot during this quest; this may be done by opening up your inventory and dragging the book to the equipment slot that has a picture of a brain. There will be a later quest, given by the same lady, that will reward you with a more advanced cooking book, "[[Basic cook book]]".
To begin cooking, visit [[Archilaya Gurpleferd]] at her bakery in the [[Arena]]. You may have to run a quick errand before you are allowed to begin the introductory cooking quest. You will be given the first of four cookbooks, [[The Art of Baking]], and asked to prepare one of a selection of dishes. As with all crafting, this book must be equipped in your mind slot during this quest; this may be done by opening up your inventory and dragging the book to the equipment slot that has a picture of a brain. As you advance, you will receive the rest of the cooking books - [[Meat and Stew Recipes]] from [[Jomed Parcen|Jomed]], [[The Pastry Cook Book]] from [[Orchibaly Gurpleferd|Orchibaly]], and finally [[Dishes with Fishes]] from [[Reffitia Thamal|Reffitia]].

There are many tools that chefs use, including the [[kitchen knife]], [[masher]], [[wooden spoon]], and [[scoop]].  These tools are obtained through merchants, or as a reward for completing a quest.  Only a few tools are located [[Ojaveda]], and the more exotic ones, such as the [[rolling pin]], are not even located in a city.

=== Chemistry ===
Cooking in PlaceShift is very similar to simple chemical reactions: one or more ingredients are reacted together to create a product.  The tools, books, and facilities used during the creation may be thought of as catalytic ingredients, in that they are required for the reaction but are not consumed.  The formula for all recipes is:
: Book + Tool + Facility + One or More Ingredients --> Book + Tool + Facility + Product
As you can see, neither the book, tool, or facility is consumed, only the ingredients are consumed.  The result is a single product ''type''.  There may be multiples of that product type, such as measuring an [[Apple_jam|apple jam]] into 50 [[Apple_jam|scoops of apple jam]], but those multiples will all be of the same type.

=== Culinary Actions ===
All culinary reactions require a book, a facility, and one or more ingredients, and produce one or more of a single product type.  Sometime tools are needed, such as when [[#mash|mashing]]; sometimes no tools are needed, such as when [[#heat|heating]].

To create a reaction, you must first equip the proper book in the mind slot.  To do this, open the inventory window and drag the desired book into the equipment slot that has a picture of a brain.  If you have a modified user interface, this brain picture may have been changed to something else.  After the proper book is equipped, you must equip a tool if one is necessary; most likely this will be something like putting a [[kitchen knife]] in one of your hands.  Finally, all of the necessary ingredients must be placed inside of the proper facility.  There are many different types of facilities, from [[grill]]s to [[kettle]]s to even a [[sack]] that is in your inventory.

Each different type of reaction requires a specific tool and a specific facility. Over time you will memorize what tools and facilities are needed for what reaction types, as they will never change from one recipe to the next.  For example, a [[#cut|cutting]] reaction will always required a [[preparation table]] and a [[kitchen knife]], no matter what the ingredients are.

Once all of the reaction prerequisites are meet and the ingredients are placed in the proper facility, with the exception of a [[#combine|combination]] reaction, you must wait for time to pass to allow the ingredients to be processed. Just as it takes time to boil water and cut a carrot in real life, so too does it take time to do the same actions in PlaneShift.

How to Begin

To begin cooking, visit Archilaya Gurpleferd at her bakery in the Arena. You may have to run a quick errand before you are allowed to begin the introductory cooking quest. You will be given the first of four cookbooks, The Art of Baking, and asked to prepare one of a selection of dishes. As with all crafting, this book must be equipped in your mind slot during this quest; this may be done by opening up your inventory and dragging the book to the equipment slot that has a picture of a brain. As you advance, you will receive the rest of the cooking books - Meat and Stew Recipes from Jomed, The Pastry Cook Book from Orchibaly, and finally Dishes with Fishes from Reffitia.

Tools

There are many tools that chefs use, including the kitchen knife, masher, wooden spoon, and scoop. These tools are obtained through merchants, or as a reward for completing a quest. Different tools are available in different cites, so be sure to check what the merchants have to offer.


Fundamentals

Culinary Actions

All culinary actions require a book, a piece of equipment, and one or more ingredients, and produce one or more of a single product type. Sometime tools are needed, such as when mashing; sometimes no tools are needed, such as when heating.

To complete an action, you must first equip the proper book in the mind slot. To do this, open the inventory window and drag the desired book into the equipment slot that has a picture of a brain. If you have a modified user interface, this brain picture may have been changed to something else. After the proper book is equipped, you must equip a tool if one is necessary; most likely this will be something like putting a kitchen knife in one of your hands. Finally, all of the necessary ingredients must be placed in the proper piece of equipment. There are many different types of equipment, from the grill to a kettle to the preparation table.

Each different type of action requires a specific tool and specific equipment. Over time you will memorize what tools and equipment are needed for what action types, as they will never change from one recipe to the next. For example, a cutting action will always require a preparation table and a kitchen knife, no matter what the ingredients are.

Once all of the action prerequisites are met and the ingredients are placed in the proper piece of equipment, with the exception of a combination action, you must wait for time to pass to allow the ingredients to be processed. Just as it takes time to boil water and cut a carrot in real life, so too does it take time to do the same actions in PlaneShift.

Chaining Actions

Some culinary actions are able to be chained. For example, using a preparation table and a kitchen knife, a pungent tuber may be cut into a sliced pungent tuber, then into a diced pungent tuber, and finally a minced pungent tuber. Once the proper tools are used and the pungent tuber is on the table, just continue to click the "Use" button to progress down the chain.
