THIS IS THE BIG UPDATE! ACTUALLY, A BIGGER UPDATE THAN I WAS INITIALLY EXPECTING!
- It's enough of a change that I think it warrants jumping up to 1.5.0 because every existing recipe has undergone some alteration, and the price of every object has been adjusted; I realized it was ridiculously high especially when that price was meant for as a whole & not individually. The new ingredients are designed to help with inventory management. You can get more use out of commonly used ingredients like Cheese, Tomatoes, Garlic, etc. because it doesn't make sense to waste a whole tomato when just a slice will do. This level of detail isn't for everyone, so I understand if there is a demand for a "simple" mod (pre-1.5 simple ingredients but still updated with the new dishes). If there is, let me know in the comments after you give this version a shot!
NEW INGREDIENTS:
- Home Cooking: Herbal Vinegar, Herbal Oil, Hot Pepper Flakes, Cloves of Garlic, Sliced Spring Onions, Sliced Cheese, Sliced Goat Cheese, Sliced Tomatoes, Diced Tomatoes, Shredded Cheese, Shredded Goat Cheese, Garlic-Ginger Paste, Ketchup, Pizza Dough, Cape Starlet Seasoning, Bechamel Sauce, Oil Vinaigrette, Ground Ginger, Tortilla Chips, Garden Salsa, Oyster Sauce, Mushroom Powder, Dried Oysters, Salmon Patty, Caramelized Onions (for base Home Cooking! turns out you CAN caramelize Spring Onions - just the white parts of Spring Onions, though, which is why they specifically take 6 instead of the 3 for Cornucopia's Onion or Wildflour's Red Onion [which can be caramelized as well])
- Animal Husbandry Mod [AHM]: Beef Patty, Chicken Patty
- Cornucopia Artisan Machines [CAM] &/or Return to Mineral Town [RMT]: Sunflower Salt, Fire Salt
- CAM: Sliced Nut Cheese
- HXW's Mixology: Vanilla Extract
- RMT: HerbSeasoning (that's right, if you have Return to Mineral Town you can access all the salts[sunflower salt, fire salt] & HerbSeasoning without needing CAM, CMC, WAG, or anything else!)
- Sunberry Village: Mustard, Honey Mustard, Beer Mustard, Hot Mustard, Wine Mustard
NEW DISHES:
- Red Cabbage Slaw (an ingredient in Fish Taco with VRC), Salmon Burger, Smell of the Sea, Seasonal Pickled Eggs(4), Void Pickled Eggs
- Animal Husbandry Mod: Cheeseburger, Deluxe Cheeseburger & Fries, Hamburger, Beef Dumplings, Chicken Gravy & Eggnoodle Soup, Stew Chicken & Dumplings
- Mizu's Quail: Pickled Quail Eggs
- Sunberry Village: Mustard Pickled Eggs
BUYABLE RECIPES:
- Many recipes are now buyable at Marnie's Ranch, the Desert Trader, Willy's fish shop, Krobus's shop, & the Saloon since I found relying on /f CHARACTER H#/ to be unreliable, especially with as many recipes as this mod has. In the future I'd like for the specialty shops to be able to have a pamphlet with recipes because ultimately knowing the possibilities of what you can do with ingredients is going to inspire purchases, & for a small town, & a small shop within a small town, that sort of given information is invaluable. Having recipes being bought in the Saloon doesn't make sense to me because Gus is in the market of cooking for others, unless the recipe is simple & won't take away from his market.
- Marnie's ranch has the seasonal pickled eggs recipes.
- The Desert Trader sells the homemade Smell of the Sea recipe. In the future I want to do all the Desert Festival foods (& then have it as a Cookbook) but in order for players to hopefully not encounter the recipe before reaching the Calico Desert, I opted for this approach.
- Willy's Fish Shop sells fish-related recipes.
- Krobus's shop sells one recipe, Void Pickled Eggs, for 10,000G. You're not certain of his intentions with that one.
- Through playtesting I found it wasn't AS reliable as going through the Saloon, so Willy & Krobus's recipes are available in the Saloon, ALSO.
SPACECORE & VANILLA RECIPE CHANGES:
- Added Spacecore for Add-on file & defaulted any configuration changes to FALSE. If you do not have Spacecore then neither the Main or Addon Spacecore files will load in your game, so no worries :) To see the Vanilla Recipe Changes & Context Tag Recipes, then you need to go into General Mod Configuration Menu (easiest) and toggle them to TRUE. If you don't want a certain change, just go in & delete the entry in the json file; don't be afraid to edit my files to cater to your personal style.
- Added toggles for individual mods in the Add-On file. Say you have Return to Mineral Town (RMT) & want the recipe changes it adds (for instance, it makes Dashi require Bonito instead of Tuna), you can toggle it on. In fact, you could toggle it off to make Dashi with Tuna & then toggle it back on without any harm done. Like with Vanilla Recipe Changes & Context Tag Recipes, all mods are defaulted to "false" so you can pick & choose your level of difficulty.
VANILLA RECIPE CHANGES (VRC): Nearly every recipe has undergone some altering. The Add-On file also has its own VRC toggle. If a certain recipe doesn't fit into your play style, go ahead & play with the Add-On toggles or turn it off altogether.
CONTEXT TAG RECIPES (CTR): Changes a few vanilla recipes both in the main & add-on files.
IF YOU HAVE CORNUCOPIA ARTISAN MACHINES & WISH TO SEE HOME COOKING VERSIONS OF VANILLA RECIPES (which incorporates & expands on CAM & then some):
- 1) In Home Cooking toggle Vanilla Recipe Changes to TRUE.
- 2) In Cornucopia Artisan Machines toggle Enable Vanilla Recipe Changes AND Enable Flexible Recipes to FALSE.
- 3) Don't worry because HC will cover all CAM changes IF you have the mod & only add on to them in HC fashion.
- 4) These changes are easily made and unmade with General Mod Configuration Menu without ever having to leave the game.
IF YOU USE LOVE OF COOKING, leave VRC & CTR to "false" (in other words, do nothing until I get a better grasp on that mod)

MINOR UPDATES:
- A LOT of sprite alterations and swaps.
- Mostly completed the Gift Tastes? I think??
- Everything has been unhidden with its i18n complete!
- Exclude from Perfection Score should actually work this time.
- Buffs have been altered to be more intentional with the duration actually considered.
- GreenPasta is no longer drinkable, sorry! But most soups ARE!! I stand by my truth!!!
- After careful consideration because of the way it's made and the nonsensical reverse-processing, Buttermilk has been removed. Any future dishes involving Buttermilk will be WAG-only. Additionally, I removed Tomato Clam Chowder because it was too similar to Red Clam Chowder.
