Kitchens

Kitchens is a mod created by Rbdyck. This mod lets you craft cupboards and counter-tops - as well as other appliances and foods.

Rbdyck's mods are realistic and historically aware, mimicking the real world. Recipes are quite involved, making you as the player earn your treats. The mod is not overly complicated, nor too simplified.

Compatibilities
Barley can be used instead of wheat: any mod that publishes Barley through the OreDictionary. This has been tested with Pam's HarvestCraft.

Please note that this mod affects the Booze Mod, changing the way yeast is made.

World Generation
This is what the game starts to generate in the world:

In addition, This mod expands the leaf blocks, making Oak trees drop Acorns, and Pine trees drop Pinenuts. Both have the same drop rate as apples in vanilla Minecraft. You will need to get your apples from other mods. (A couple of suggestions are: Harvestcraft, Forestry, XieCraft, GrowthCraft, and more!)

The following chapters will guide you through baking and cooking.

Cheeses
Wonderful cheese! These dairy products are a good supplement to the diet of any Steve. In case anyone is interested, here's a website to make cheese in real life. From a single gallon of milk.

Regular cheese:

Farmer Cheese: This is a simpler form of cheese, using lemon juice:
 * Craft 3 buckets of Milk with 1 Cheesecloth, 1 Salt and 1 bottle of Lemon Juice to get 3 wheels of Farmer cheese.

The prerequisites for Cheese-making are: Rennet:
 * 1) Use a Meat Cleaver to kill a Calf to get 1 Stomach. (Rennet is a type of enzyme used to process milk.)
 * 2) Brew a Stomach with 3 water bottles in the Cooking Stand to get 3 bottles of traditional Rennet
 * If you are squeamish, you can make a vegetarian type by cooking a Slice of Melon with 3 water bottles in the Cooking Stand

Bacteria Starter:
 * 1) Place Milk Bucket in the top slot of Cooking Stand, and no fuel. There's a chance it will become Sour Milk.
 * 2) Craft Sour Milk with 3 glass bottles to become 3 bottles of Bacteria Starter. You get the empty bucket back.

Lemon Juice:
 * Craft one Lemon with one glass bottle to get 1 bottle of Lemon Juice.
 * (Lemon is from Harvestcraft or Forestry)

Jerky: Eating jerky will relieve 4 hunger, with saturation the same as Steak.
 * 1) Craft 1 beef slices, 1 salt, 1 garlic clove to get 1 raw jerky.
 * 2) Place raw jerky on the smoking rack. When the progress bar is complete, it will become Jerky.
 * (Garlic is from the Mithril mod. Although Jerky is part of the Kitchens mod, Mithril has to be loaded for Jerky to appear.)

Pemmican: Eating Pemmican relieves 8 hunger, the same saturation as steak. Note: according to Wikipedia, Pemmican was usually made with a hard fat called Suet, and it is around the Kidneys and Loin of a cow. The image of raw fat is based on Suet.

Cooking with Acorns
Oak trees do not give you apples - they give you Acorns! But eating Acorns directly will give you a Stomach ache because of all the Tannins in an Acorn. You need to dry, shell, and soak the Acorns to get Acorn Nutmeat. You can grind this into Acorn Flour too.

Acorns Nutmeat :
 * 1) Dry Acorn in the Drying Table to get Dry Acorn. Eating these will still give a stomach ace.
 * 2) Put 8 Dry Acorn in a barrel, and fill with water. When the progress bar completes, this will become 8 Acorn Nutmeat.  You can eat these, or process them further.
