what's going on guys this is going to be a very basic how to cook guide in project zomboid so the first thing you want to do is navigate over to your crafting menu and then you'll notice there's a cooking tab underneath the crafting menu so the first step in cooking is actually creating the recipe which is pretty straightforward to create a recipe you'll need the correct ingredients and the correct container for the ingredients so let's take stir-fry for instance the base item that you'll need is the frying pan and then there's a whole bunch of ingredients that could go into the stir-fry from there and adding the ingredients is pretty straightforward too all you have to do is go over to the ingredient you want to add hit add ingredient see the little loading bar and we'll just do it for like a few ingredients in this case so once you've added the ingredients to your dish you'll be able to find it inside of your inventory next we'll need a heat source in this case i'm using an oven and what you want to do is you take your dish put it inside the oven whatever heat source you have and hit turn on once you've turned it on your food will begin to cook and you can actually see that through the little cooking bar right there and then what you need to do next is pretty obvious you need to wait until that bar is finished all the way okay so once the cooking bar is finished you'll notice that the cooking switches to burning which means that your meal is cooked and now it's beginning to burn so don't let that burning bar finished or else the meal is gonna suck and it's gonna make you unhappy so take it out of the oven never forget to turn off your oven because if you were to leave with the oven on you're probably gonna come back to your base on fire and everything destroyed and that's gonna be pretty sad and so here's the final product your cooked meal cooked meals are great because in general they're going to give you better boosts overall like you'll lose unhappiness you'll lose more hunger it's just usually you get a better return off a cooked meal than say like the raw ingredients next i want to talk a little bit about recipes the more you cook the more you'll start to build experience towards the next cooking level and as you increase your cooking level you'll have access to a wider array of recipes you can also learn new recipes through reading the cooking magazines you find throughout the project zomboid world lastly i want to talk a little bit about the various heat source you can use to cook in my example i used an oven but there's plenty of other ones for instance you could use a microwave a propane barbecue a charcoal barbecue an antique oven a fireplace or a campfire for all these heat sources it's basically the same exact process you just put your meal in there and then let it cook the only thing that varies really is the fuel source so for instance the microwave and oven they both use electricity whereas the propane bbq uses propane and i bet you can guess what the charcoal barbecue uses so yeah that'll conclude this very basic guide on how to cook um a like and or a subscriber mean a lot thanks so much for checking out the video have a good one bye
