Meat Soup is a recovery item (provision) in Crimson Desert. It is a hearty pot-cooked dish that restores a large amount of health and provides a temporary Ice Resistance buff. Meat Soup is the strongest standard soup recipe in terms of raw health restoration, restoring +280 HP per serving. It sits above Clear Soup (+180 HP) and Fish Porridge (+240 HP) in the Field Pot recipe hierarchy, making it an excellent choice for late-game healing during challenging encounters like boss fights and Abyss Nexus encounters.

The grain ingredient is flexible. You can substitute Lentils with Beans, Barley, Wheat, or Peas. Similarly, any raw meat type works in this recipe. The main cost of Meat Soup is the large quantity of meat required (4 per serving), which makes it more resource-intensive than simpler soups.
The Meat Soup recipe can be purchased from innkeepers. Recipes in Crimson Desert are obtained by purchasing them from merchants and innkeepers, finding them on shelves inside buildings, or receiving them as quest rewards. Once a recipe has been read, the knowledge is permanently learned and the recipe item can be sold.
Meat Soup is a Field Pot recipe. To cook it:

Water can be gathered from rivers and wells throughout Pywel. Lentils and other grains are available from grocer vendors in towns. Meat is obtained by hunting animals in the wild or purchasing from butcher vendors.

Meat Soup offers the highest health restoration of any standard soup, but its Ice Resistance Lv 4 buff lasts 1 minute, which is longer than Clear Soup's 30-second Lv 2 buff. Meat Soup is the superior choice for both raw healing and ice resistance duration.
Meat Soup is one of the strongest single-item healing options available from standard recipes. Stock up before tackling difficult boss encounters.
The 4 Meat requirement makes this recipe more expensive to produce than Clear Soup (1 Meat) or Fish Porridge (2 Fish Fillet). Hunt animals regularly to maintain a good supply.
The Ice Resistance Lv 4 buff, while short at 1 minute, can be valuable when fighting enemies that deal ice damage or when exploring cold environments.
For the best healing efficiency, consider cooking Special Pot recipes that use Meat Soup as an ingredient to create even more powerful meals.
All raw meat types produce the same result when used in Meat Soup. Use your lowest-quality meat and save premium cuts like Marbled Meat for other purposes.
