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 stove are going – which can only be achieved by placing wood in the space at the back of the stove.
If you don’t have wood, you’ll have 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 select 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 a known recipe. You can try different combinations of ingredients to discover new recipes in REKA.
Each recipe has a timer that you can see counting down in the open-face oven. Once your recipe is complete, you will receive a notification in the lower left corner of your screen telling you so.
You can queue up recipes by selecting additional ingredients while another batch is cooking. You cannot have more than one recipe cooking and one waiting at any time.
How to get ingredients in REKA
Ingredients can be found around the world in REKA:
- Forage from the desert.
- Buy from Bogdan or other merchant NPCs in each village.
- Collected from your cottage.
Confused by that last one? To get eggs in REKA, you will have to go get Baba Jaga’s chickens from her original farm and take them into 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 village chickens if you find a chicken farm. You can use your crows to steam the eggs and the chickens if you want.
