Ars Nouveau's Flavors & Delight
by LightLand
Flavors & Delight is a Forge and NeoForge food mod that adds dishes built from Ars Nouveau ingredients, in the style of Farmer's Delight.
What it does
Flavors & Delight adds 49 food items, including block feasts, pies, jellies, drinks, platters, soups and sauces, snacks, and meat dishes and skewers. The dishes use ingredients from the Ars Nouveau magic mod and follow the crafting and serving pattern of Farmer's Delight. Ars Nouveau and Farmer's Delight are both required, so both must be installed alongside this mod.
The mod also adds seven new ingredients. Barks come in four variants named Flourishing, Vexing, Cascading and Blazing. Wilden meat drops from a Wilden Hunter when it is killed with the Enchanter's Knife, chimera meat drops from a chimera killed with the same knife, and a chimera horn drops from a chimera killed with an axe. Drygmy farming is handled with the Enchanter's Knife as well.
Five effects tie food and spells together, covering blast resistance, freezing from spell damage, mana restoration when healing, a synchronized shield that restores absorption up to four hearts, and Wilden, which raises maximum mana, mana regeneration and spell damage. Flavors & Delight is licensed under the GNU Lesser General Public License v2.1 only and is open source. Its source code and issue tracker are public. Files exist for Forge and NeoForge on 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, and it is client and server, so both the server and every player need it. Cuisine Delight, Diet and Thirst Was Taken are optional and extend the mod when installed.

Use cases
Spellcasting builds
Players who build around Ars Nouveau spells can use the mana and damage effects of the food to support their casting.
Farming and cooking progression
Players who already farm and cook with Farmer's Delight get a set of dishes that draw on Ars Nouveau ingredients.
Who it’s for: Players who run Ars Nouveau and Farmer's Delight together and want food that connects to spells. Server owners who run a shared world need the mod on the server and on every client.
How it compares
Ars Expanded Combat Compat is client and server, not open source, and covers Forge and NeoForge for 1.20.1 – 1.21.1, so it is a combat add-on rather than a food mod. Ars Structurize is also open source under the MIT License and runs on Forge and NeoForge for 1.20.1 – 1.21.1, with a different focus on structures. Create: Ars Nouveau Compat is server-side only, uses NeoForge alone and supports only 1.21.1, so it does not install on the client.
