Introduction


Chef's Dream is an immersive cooking datapack for Minecraft 1.20.5 and up. The datapack focuses on interacting with vanilla blocks to cook foods rather than crafting. You will be able to cook soups using a cauldron, fry foods using a hopper, and more!


Features


Cooking Stations: 10 different cooking stations derived from vanilla blocks. A cauldron will become a cooking pot, and a smoker will become an oven!
New Foods: Over 210 new foods to cook
New Drinks: 37 new drinks to brew
New Fruits and Vegetables: 4 new fruits that drop from trees and 5 new vegetables that drop from grasses and ferns
Immersive Cooking: Put oil in a fryer, cut ham on a preparation board, make a sushi roll, cook meat on a grill, and more!



Guide


You will get a starting guide when you first load up the datapack. For more guides, right click with a Cooking Station Maker while standing right in front of a chiseled bookshelf to fill it up with guides and cookbooks. You can get a Cooking Station Maker by loading up the datapack or by using the following command (which works even with cheats disabled):/trigger start_cooking
By shift-right clicking with a Cooking Station Maker right in front of certain blocks, you can turn them into cooking stations. For example, using the Cooking Station Maker on a hopper will turn it into a fryer!

For a more detailed guide, you can visit the wiki on the Chef's Dream Github page. The wiki also contains a cookbook with all recipes listed in alphabetical order.


Installation


Download the datapack and the required resource pack. Put the datapack in the 'datapack' folder of your world, and put the resource pack in the 'resourcepack' folder of Minecraft. If you load up the world and you get the advancement "Chef's Dream," you have successfully installed the datapack! (If you install it into an existing world, use the command /reload to load your datapack.)


Updating


To update Chef's Dream to the newest version, simply redownload the datapack file and the resource pack file and replace the current files in your minecraft folder.

Debugging/Uninstallation

Can you give me a little more detail? I've checked the resourcepack on the download and the version is correct; can you try going into the resourcepack and looking into the "pack.mcmeta" file and confirming that the "pack_format" is 46? (If it's anything less than 46, you likely downloaded an older resourcepack.)

Burnt Food is the result if the ingredients in the fryer do not correspond to a valid recipe. Have you tried following one of the cookbooks? If you put in a valid recipe and it still results in the food being burnt, please let me know the steps you took as it may be a bug.

history
Did you get the mango from using `/function chefsdream:give/get_all_fruits`? If so, it's probably because of BUG 12 here: https://github.com/lemoncodes237/chefs-dream/blob/main/BUGS.md. This will be fixed in the next update! In the meanwhile, try to get the mango from a natural dark oak leaves drop or use this command: `/give @s cookie[custom_data={chefsdream:1,Tags:["mango"]},food={nutrition:2,saturation:4,can_always_eat:1},custom_name='[{"text":"Mango","italic":false}]',custom_model_data=2370204]`
, sorry about the issue!
