Eastward Recipes – Dishes, Effects, and Ingredients

It’d really be nice if cooking was as easy in real life as it is in video games. In real life, you gotta like, measure out ingredients, keep timers on everything, and clean up a big mess. In a game, you can just throw any old thing in a frying pan, do a little jig, and boom, gourmet cooking. Even in the steadily collapsing world of Eastward, there are plenty of tasty things to eat, and you don’t even need a recipe book to try them all, just a bunch of raw ingredients and some gumption. In this guide, we have a complete list of all the Eastward recipes.

Around the world of Eastward, you can find portable stoves, usually set up near saving refrigerators. Since John is a certifiable expert chef and always carries a frying pan with him (primarily for pummeling purposes, but he’s crafty like that), he can use these stoves to quickly cook up any of the ingredients he’s purchased or swiped from defeated enemies. You can combine any three ingredients plus a spice to cook food, which you can then eat from your pack to heal and buff. 

Many Eastward recipes allow you to combine any ingredient of a particular type, while some require specific ingredients. For example, you can make Vegetable Stir-Fry with any three Vegetable ingredients (pumpkin, lettuce, etc.), while Takoyaki specifically requires Egg, Octopus, and Onion. As for spice, no recipe requires spice, but adding one grants the food additional buffs. The four spice types and their buffs are:

• Steam Peppercorn: Boosts Defense
• Lava Candy: Boosts Attack
• Fire Mint: Reduces Ammo costs
• Electric Chili Sauce: Boosts Attack Speed.

Additionally, every time you cook, you’ll spin a slot machine. If you match up two or more pictures, the properties of your food will be boosted, restoring more health, buffing for longer, and so on.
