Çiğköfte
by omercolaka
Çiğköfte, a NeoForge food mod for 1.21.1, adds a Turkish dish that players prepare from ingredients gathered through crafting and villager trades.
What it does
Çiğköfte brings a set of ingredients used in the dish into Minecraft. Some are crafted by the player, while others come from villagers: a Cleric sells Tomato Paste and Spices, and a Farmer sells Lemon Lettuce, so players do not have to search chests for everything. Once the ingredients are gathered, they are combined at a Crafting Table to make the food.
The finished Çiğköfte restores 20 Hunger and provides 20 Saturation, which makes it useful as a meal during longer survival or adventure sessions. The recipe and the crafting process are shown in the mod's gallery. The mod is meant for players who want Turkish food culture in their world and for anyone exploring, building or looking for new food to cook.
The mod needs NeoForge and runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. The files cover 1.21.1 only. It is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.
Key features
Villager ingredient trades
Clerics and Farmers sell the ingredients that are not crafted, so players can buy what they lack instead of searching.
Crafted ingredients
Some ingredients are made by the player from other materials before they go into the recipe.
Crafting Table recipe
Once all ingredients are collected, they are combined at a Crafting Table to produce the dish.
Hunger and Saturation
Eating the finished dish fills 20 Hunger points and grants 20 Saturation, so it works as a filling meal during long trips.
