North American Kitchen
by DeonsGaming
North American Kitchen brings regional dishes from the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines into the Forge game as crafted foods.
What it does
Players gather ingredients specific to each region and combine them in specialized cooking equipment to prepare traditional meals. Recipes cover five dishes drawn from Canada, Puerto Rico and Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, and the author notes that other North American cuisines are planned as the catalog grows.
The mod changes survival food by adding depth to hunger and crafting, rather than only new items to collect. Its file targets Forge 1.20.1 only. Server owners install it, and players connect with no copy of their own. Released under a custom license, it is not open source.
