📋 About This Mod
Due to lack of time, I am currently not updating or fixing any issues with the mod. I will, however, get back to this mod, re-write it to work with the newest game patch, tweak current recipes and add new ones. Future updates may also include custom 3D models for the new dishes, as a friendly user has offered to create these for the mod as soon as I figure out how to add them to the mod.
Thank you for your understanding
Master Chef is a simple mod that adds 25 new recipes to the game, 3 of which are non-eatable but used in other dishes.
Boar and Deer trophies can now be cooked, as well as Dragon Eggs, which will yield great results for all the trouble of getting an egg back to your base.
Flax can also be processed into Flax Seeds, an ingredient in multiple recipes and Carrot Seeds can be used to create Carrot oil.
All 25 items have an icon made to match the aesthetics of the game, but were made quite quickly and might receive updates in the future. As this is the first iteration of the mod, all items borrow 3D models from other in-game items, so don't be surprised when you drop an item and it looks like something else. This may also be updated in the future if I have the time to figure out how to (I am no developer, but if you are, shoot me a message and we can make it happen together), and if enough people enjoy the mod.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 746 endorsements and over 25k downloads.
- Expands cooking with 25 new recipes, giving more variety for food buffs.
- Makes use of otherwise useless trophies and dragon eggs.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in March 2021 — may not be compatible with the latest Valheim updates.
- Only adds recipes, no other gameplay changes — might feel limited for some.
For Valheim players who enjoy cooking and want more food options beyond the vanilla recipes. Great for those who like to collect trophies and put them to use. Skip if you're looking for major gameplay overhauls — this is purely a recipe expansion.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to place the mod files in the correct folder (usually BepInEx/plugins) if you're using a mod manager.
- Check if the mod requires BepInEx or other dependencies — if so, install those first.
- Since the mod is from 2021, test it on a backup save to ensure it works with your current game version.
