In this guide, we are going to take a look at every ingredient and food in Valheim, as well as some basics for cooking, such as the crafting stations needed. First, let's look at raw ingredients that you can obtain in the game.
Updated January 23, 2023 by Jacqueline Zalace: We've updated this guide to have the most complete information on cooking in Valheim. Now, you can find a concise list of every ingredient, as well as tables that include every recipe and how to make it.
Ingredient List
Raw ingredients can be directly collected; you do not have to cook them in any way. Sometimes, you can eat the raw ingredients, but many will need to be cooked before you can munch on them.♐ Below, you ca🍃n check out every raw ingredient, as well as where you can get it.
Cooking Basics
Now that we know about all the raw ingredients that can be used, let's take a look at how to cook.
There are a few different cooking locations, with the most basic setup being a cooking station over a campfire. This station allows you to cook up to two raw meats at a time (excluding lox, serpent, hare, and seeker), which will make a steam-like noise once cooked. If you leave it on the spit 𒁏for too💫 long, the meat will eventually burn and turn into coal.
There is an upgraded version of this basic cooking station, called the iron cooking station. This allows you to cook more meat at a time, as well as cook lox, serpent, hare, and seeker meat. In total, there are five spaces for you to cook at. Th💃is station sti🐼ll requires a campfire to be lit underneath.
Lastly, you can build a cauldron for cooking more complex meals. Thi🌜s is a suspended pot that also needs to cook over a fire.
Bel🧔ow, you can check out how to make all the cooking l꧅ocations we have mentioned above.

Using A Stone Oven
Lastly, let's talk about the Stone Oven. This is a unique cooking location that allows you to process food even more.
To make the Stone Oven, you will need the following materials at the Artisan Table.
- 15x Iron

- 4x Surtling Core
With a Stone Oven, you can make larger dishes, but the ingredients will first need to be prepared in a Cauldron. Below, you can find each Cauldron recipe that can then be place📖d in the 🔜oven for 50 seconds to make the cooked version.
