Cooking Station

The Cooking Station is a crafting station used to cook Raw Food and Common Fish into Food. It combines all recipes from the Roasting Station and the Cooking Pot, making it the main upgrade over those earlier cooking stations.

Like its predecessors, the Cooking Station uses Logs as fuel. One Log lasts for 2 minutes while the station is running. Because players can cook food instantly with a click, the practical amount of food that can be made per Log is extremely high. Settlers, however, still take time to cook, so this efficiency does not apply to them in the same way.

In practice, the Cooking Station is the best choice once you want access to the full set of basic cooking recipes in one place. It streamlines food production by removing the need to use multiple separate stations for the same early-game cooking tasks.
