11Overview22This page lists the cooking recipes confirmed in Outbound. Recipes are prepared at three workstations available inside or near the camper van: the Baking Oven, the Cooking Pot, and the Food Processor. Cooked meals provide better nourishment than eating raw ingredients and help players stay healthy during their journey. For general information on how cooking works, see the cooking article.44Confirmed Recipes66The following six recipes are confirmed in the launch build of Outbound and were previously visible across the public demo and beta phases. Each recipe lists its ingredients, the required workstation, and the in-game effect on hunger or health.88RecipeIngredientsStationEffectBread2 Grain + 1 WaterBaking Oven+22 hungerPizza2 Grain + 1 Water + 1 Tomato SauceBaking Oven+32 hungerMushroom Soup1 Water + 2 Mushrooms (same kind: Amber Morel or Indigo Cap)Cooking Pot+22 healthHerbal Tea1 Water + 2 HerbsCooking Pot+22 healthTomato Sauce2 TomatoesFood Processor+22 hunger (used as ingredient in Pizza)Jam2 BerriesFood Processor+22 hunger1110Recipe Categories1211Baking Oven recipes: Bread, Pizza. Dry-cooked meals that emphasize hunger restoration. Pizza is a tier-up of Bread that consumes Tomato Sauce as an ingredient.Cooking Pot recipes: Mushroom Soup, Herbal Tea. Liquid meals that restore health rather than hunger. Mushroom Soup requires both mushrooms to be the same species.Food Processor recipes: Tomato Sauce, Jam. Processed ingredients that either restore hunger directly or serve as inputs for higher-tier Baking Oven recipes.1413Ingredient Notes1715Grain: harvested from wheat fields and grown via farming. A core staple for Baking Oven recipes.Water: collected from streams, lakes, or stored containers. Required by every cooked meal except Tomato Sauce and Jam.Tomatoes: grown in farm plots or harvested from wild patches. Tomato Sauce is a prerequisite for Pizza.Mushrooms: foraged in shaded woods. Amber Morel and Indigo Cap are the two confirmed species used in Mushroom Soup; mixing species does not produce the recipe.Herbs: foraged across The Outdoors and other biomes. Used in Herbal Tea.Berries: harvested from berry bushes. Used in Jam.1917Tips for New Cooks2219Set up at least one of each workstation early; many recipes require a specific station that cannot be substituted.Tomato Sauce is the only intermediate ingredient confirmed so far. If a recipe slot is locked, check whether you need to pre-process an ingredient first.Mushroom Soup is the cheapest health-restoring meal once you find a reliable mushroom patch; pair it with Herbal Tea for variety.Jam and Tomato Sauce both use the Food Processor and run quickly, so they make good pre-trip prep before a long drive.2421Other Recipes2623Additional recipes are unlocked through progression and have not yet been fully catalogued. New recipes typically arrive through the in-game patch notes shown on the title screen, and the technology tree article tracks blueprint unlocks tied to new recipe stations as they are added.
