L-man's Better Eggs
by L-Man
L-man's Better Eggs turns eggs into a larger set of foods and crafting ingredients, with new uses for eggs in furnaces and crafting grids.
What it does
Vanilla eggs have few uses beyond baking and brewing, and this mod adds several more. Hard Boiled, Sunny Side and Egg Whites are new egg-based items, and eggs can be cooked in a furnace or combined with other ingredients in a crafting grid. The author describes the mod as filling in the potential that vanilla eggs never used, giving eggs eight new ways to be prepared or crafted, including recipes that take cocoa beans as an input.
The mod is built for survival play. Its crafting recipes are listed in the images tab of the mod page, so players can check how each new item is made before they gather materials. It runs on Forge and NeoForge for Minecraft 1.20.1 and 1.21.4, and both the server and every player need it installed. The code is not open source, and the mod is released under All rights reserved.
