Cooking Soup
Cooking Soup lets players build a soup cauldron over a fire source, fill it with water, and boil four edible ingredients into a custom soup.
What it does
A cauldron is placed over a campfire or another fire source and filled with water. Players then drop up to four edible ingredients into the boiling water, and right-clicking with an empty bowl scoops out the finished soup. The mod is aimed at players who find the vanilla soups repetitive and want to mix their own dishes from ingredients they already have.
Setting up the kitchen is the main step: once the cauldron is lit and filled, the cooking process runs from the same block. The mod is listed under Food, with Game mechanics as a secondary category, and it is published for Forge 1.20.1 only. Servers that run it need every player to install it too. The code is under the MIT License and the project is not open source.
