How to cook in REKA
You can use the oven in your cottage to cook all the recipes in REKA. You will need to ensure that the fires in your oven are going - which can only be achieved by putting wood into the space at the back of the oven.
If you don't have any wood, you'll need to go out and forage for some.
Once you have wood in the oven, you can go to the front of the oven and interact with it. This will open your inventory, where you can choose three ingredients to cook with.
When you finish selecting the third ingredient, your oven will automatically start cooking if your selection meets the criteria for any known recipe. You can try different combinations of ingredients to discover new recipes in REKA.
Every recipe has a timer, which you can see counting down inside the open-face oven. Once your recipe is complete, you'll get a notification in the bottom left corner of your screen.
You can queue up recipes by selecting more ingredients while another set is cooking. You can't have more than one recipe cooking and one waiting at any time.
How to get ingredients in REKA
Ingredients can be found throughout the world in REKA from the following sources:
- Forage from the wilderness.
- Buy from Bogdan or other trader NPCs in each village.
- Collected from your cottage.
Confused by that last one? To get eggs in REKA, you'll need to go and get Baba Jaga's chickens from her original farm and take them inside your cottage. Once you take a chicken inside, they become your pet, and you can collect eggs from them.
Alternatively, you can also steal eggs from villagers' chickens if you find a chicken farm. You can use your crows to steam the eggs and the chickens if you want to.
