Ulti's Simple Recipes
Ulti's Simple Recipes adds a small set of extra crafting, smelting and cooking recipes to vanilla Minecraft, such as slabs back into full blocks and wheat into seeds.
What it does
The mod registers recipes that the base game does not offer. Among them, two slabs of a material craft into one full block, one wheat becomes two wheat seeds, rotten flesh can be smelted into leather, clay blocks convert to clay balls, and four chests can be made from eight logs. A campfire cooking recipe is also included, and the author notes that more recipes are included beyond these examples.
The mod works on Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, and it runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. Builds cover 1.21 – 1.21.7 across eight release versions, and the latest file, 2025.1.0, targets 1.21.7. The code is released under the MIT License and is open source, with the source code and issue tracker publicly linked. The mod was first published on 2025-04-02 and last updated on 2025-06-22.
The author notes that the recipes are meant to make crafting easier, and suggests JEI to browse the full list of available recipes.

Rotten flesh can be smelted into leather, and campfire cooking is also supported.
Chests and clay
Four chests can be made from eight logs, and clay blocks convert into clay balls.

How it compares
Just Another Rotten Flesh to Leather Mod overlaps with this mod on rotten flesh recipes. It is open source under the MIT License, runs on client and server, and covers 1.15 – 1.21.8 on Fabric, Forge and NeoForge. Easier Crafting Recipes is NeoForge-only for 1.21.4, is server-side only, and is not open source, so players need nothing installed on their side. Horse nametag fix is a Fabric mod for 1.21.11 that is client-side only and not open source.
