Kaleidoscope Sauce
by jiasudu
Kaleidoscope Sauce adds eight sauces to Kaleidoscope Cookery, which players craft in a Mixing Bowl and use to dip and dye food on Forge for 1.20.1.
What it does
Sauces are made in a Mixing Bowl with the Stir Stick and used on food by right-clicking a bowl with the food. A dipped item takes on the color of its sauce: Chili Sauce turns beef red, Mayonnaise turns bread yellow, and Sweet Sour Sauce turns apples orange. Each sauce also gives the dish its own buff, and dipped food can be eaten for a longer period with a stronger healing effect.
Three new crops join the farm: sesame, peanut and soybean. Sesame can be found by breaking grass with a straw hat on, the seeds of each plant drop in the same way, and a soybean plant that is broken while growing drops edamame. The mod is meant for survival players who want more ways to cook and season meals. Recipes are shown in JEI, so players can check how each sauce is made before crafting it.
