First brews and dishes

At rank 0 you can brew four potions and cook two dishes.

Recipe	Needs
Orc Strength	Pure Water, Orc's Blood, Iron
Stamina	Ginkgo Leaves, Aloe, Pure Water
Healing	Red Berries, Troll's Blood, Elixir Vitae, Mercury
Water Walking	Yellow Rose, Palm, Pure Water, Sulphur
Hunter's Stew	2 Raw Meat, 1 Mushroom, 1 Root Bulb
Fisherman's Supper	2 Raw Fish, 1 Egg, 1 Green Leaves

Each potion uses one of each ingredient. Either regional variant of a recipe’s herb works.

Condition	Requirement
Orc Strength ingredients	9 silver of counter goods and 1 Iron; no herbs
Ginkgo Leaves, Red Berries and Yellow Rose	Uncommon herbs; Herbalism 10 and a Sickle
Mercury	Mining 10 veins

Brewing requires no timing activity. Under The Alchemy Station, pick a potion, buy anything missing from the button beside it, and press Brew for 2 potions. Water Breathing and Levitation are made entirely of counter goods, so they brew only 1 and pay no first-time bonus. They are less efficient for leveling.

To cook, choose a dish under The Fire on the Stores page. Press Cook, then remove each pan with Space during its timing window. Intelligence and Personality widen the window. A recipe normally makes one serving; Cook makes two. Cooking Raw Fish directly at a fire produces an ordinary meal without profession experience.

Dish	Effect	Rank
Hunter's Stew	Endurance +5 for 2 hours	0
Fisherman's Supper	Agility +5 for 2 hours	0
Orchard Tart	Stamina lasts a fifth longer for 4 hours	10
Feast of the Hearth	Strength, Endurance and Willpower +5 for a day, for the whole party at your table	70

Potions and dishes have no quality. Dishes can be listed on the Market, but potions cannot be listed as crafted pieces.
