Nomad's Delight
by DosyaKitarov
Nomad's Delight is a NeoForge addon for Farmer's Delight that adds traditional dishes and kitchen tools inspired by Central Asian steppe cooking.
What it does
Nomad's Delight extends the cooking and farming systems of Farmer's Delight with more than 50 original dishes and their ingredients, drawn from the hearty food of steppe nomads. Two new functional blocks support this cooking: the Butter Churn, a traditional churn for processing dairy, and the Curd Bag, a portable pouch that works as storage for food on the road. A pot for the Qaltasha dish and recipes that hook into the existing kitchen mechanics round out the additions.
Players progress through 19 new advancements that follow the dishes and processing steps. The addon requires Farmer's Delight, which must be installed next to it, and it is open source under the MIT License. Files are published for NeoForge only, on 1.21.1, with 1.0.2 as the latest file, and the mod runs on client and server. Fabric builds for further Minecraft versions are planned, and a Chinese localization is included.

Traveler's Garden covers 1.21 – 1.21.7 on NeoForge and is open source under the GNU Affero General Public License v3.0 only, so it does not share this mod's single version target.
