See the CHANGELOG for all changes.
Full Featureset
- Kitchen Multiblock
The Farmer's Delight (Pot, Skillet, Cutting Board) blocks are now registered as valid CFB "Kitchen Multiblock" blocks. All their respective recipes are visible through the CFB "Cooking Table"!
Pam's HarvestCraft 2 recipes (cutting board, skillet, pot, saucepan, oven) are bridged too, each gated on the correct Farmer's Delight tool being in the kitchen. If Farmer's Delight Version doesn't exist, Pam's tool serves as replacement.
- Custom Bakeware Block
New Bakeware block, custom block to Culinary Compat which allows all Pam's bakeware recipes! Instead of unintuitive shapeless crafting, the CFB recipes mimic an oven! Click once to confirm, click again to bake, 4-second timer with cooldown overlay, sounds, and a cancel-refund. Fully configurable.
- AE2 Wireless Bridge
The ME Kitchen Station wirelessly links any Applied Energistics 2 ME network to your CFB kitchen multiblock. Bidirectional by default: your AE2 network can feed kitchen recipes AND your kitchen cabinets, fridges, and counters show up on your ME terminal. Right-click the block for a settings panel to switch direction modes (ME → Kitchen, Kitchen → ME, or Bidirectional), a cosmetic screen toggle, and a wrench tab opening AE2's native priority page. Thanks Sebastrn!
- Head Chef's Journal
A Patchouli guidebook crafted with a vanilla book + cake. Categories and entries auto-show/hide based on which optional mods you have installed, so it stays relevant to whatever subset of integrations you're running. Currently covers the AE2 bridge in depth, more sections will be added as the mod grows as well!
- Food Rebalancing
Optional restore of Pam's 1.12.2 food values, optional strip of edibility from ingredients (butter, spices, etc.), optional nerf of vanilla Minecraft foods. These Features have been forked from Pixel1011's Mod PamsHC2 Food Nerf!
- Recipe Viewers
JEI and EMI plugins with five kitchen-bridge categories and workstation hints.
- Configuration
Client and server config files are included! More options will be added to them as well. Feel free to give some suggestions!

Culinary Compat! server crashes on startup – what to do?
Most common cause: wrong forge version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.20.1). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Server lagging with Culinary Compat! – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Culinary Compat! consumes the most tick time.
