About this Mod

Minecraft’s default food system is fairly simple, so this mod expands on it by adding more a more realistic yet vanilla-like setup for certain recipes.
It introduces more foods, seasonings, recipes and reworks how some foods, like bread and cake, are crafted by adding intermediate ingredients and preparation stages. The goal is to make food feel a bit more involved without overcomplicating gameplay.
