Hi! Not intentional, these were made before the bread tag was added in game and I've just never got around to adding it with me making breads for the homestead helper mod instead but I'll update them for it :)
Barb Pappalardo
I don’t know if this is intentional, but the pantry baguettes don’t count as “any bread” in recipes. I was happy to find your other bread recipes in the baking collection, though! I really needed them because I can’t make milk bread off the grid but now I’ll be able to make bread!! Thank you <3
bub
Thanks for letting me know! It must be tagged as dessert 😅 I'll fix it!
Itsa Fakename
Not a huge deal, but my toddler gets the sugar moodlets from eating stargazy eel pie 😄
bub
Ahh! Thank you for letting me know! I've fixed it now - I must have accidently deleted the puddings instead of the meal 🫠 😅
Jules
Hi thanks for the update. Think you made a tiny mistake and added 2 meals and left out puddings.
Alvilda
Hi I love this mod! But the boiled eggs recipe is not showing up, I've tried redownloading the pantry foods and I have the homestead helper but it just doesn't show up

Have you ever considered making a boar's head as a grand meal?
Simlanii
I'm still having the same issue and am waiting for a resolution.

Hi I cant access the drinks file even though its downloaded and i have the recipe fix file, is this a bug?
Nicole
I love these and use them all the time! One question: the fish head stew was having routing issues when I tried to have my sims make it. They would get to the cutting board with the fish on it and then act like there was no counter space to do anything. I placed the counters with move objects off so that wasn't the issue, they were totally free of clutter, and I even replaced them with non-cc counters to see if that helped. I had three counters worth of free space and they just couldn't cook the meal. The other recipes I've made (gruel, pottage, and sponge cake) have all worked fine. Any ideas?
Simlanii
What menu is the teas/ales/mead supposed to be under? I still cannot get it to show on my game no matter what I do.
Simlanii
I did download the recipe zip file and I don't have the option to make them via the medieval recipe book or hearth. I've noticed after multiple attempts that I can't make some of the desserts and stews, even with the OTG fix.
bub
Thank you for letting me know! I've tested in my game and having the same issue so I will investigate and get it updated! :)
bub
Hi, did you install the recipe zip file? The menu should show on the medieval cookbook and the hearth.
bub
Hi! The ingredients can be found here now - https://www.patreon.com/collection/645977 They are slightly different and are made through the Homestead Helper.
Daisy HIll
Sorry if this is a dumb question... I love your mods so please don't take this as a criticism. Does this update include ingredients like making flour, salt ect?
Simlanii
I'm thoroughly enjoying this mod, but how do I access the teas,ales and nectar? I've tried the hearth, homestead helper and the medieval recipe book. I can't find the option to make them. Is there a pack I need for it?
Itsa Fakename
I love this mod so much! I have really missed the recipes and I'm so excited that they are back! One itsy bitsy little thing: the roast fish grand meal doesn't fulfill the grand meal holiday tradition. This was also the case in the old version of Ye Olde Cookbook. I haven't tested the other grand meals, but they all worked in the old version.
