An Introduction to Cooking in Tower of Fantasy
Before we dive into a specific recipe, let‘s review the cooking mechanics that allow you to discover and craft all kinds of delicious dishes across Aida.
How Cooking Works
Cooking bots located at campsites and in the open world are your keys to crafting restorative meals. You can add foraged ingredients to these bots and combine them into various recipes.
Each recipe requires a specific combination of ingredients. You’ll need to experiment by adding different amounts and ratios. Once you get the right formula, you’ll “discover” the recipe and can then cook it anytime.
Successfully created dishes will restore your satiety (hunger) and may also grant buffs like extra attack power or damage resistance.

Tips for Efficient Cooking
Through extensive trial-and-error (and many wasted ingredients), I’ve learned a few tips for efficient, successful cooking:
- Cook with friends to combine your ingredient stockpiles
- Pay attention to regional ingredient differences
- Balanced amounts of ingredients tend to work best
- Don‘t just keep randomly adding ingredients if you get the wrong dish – try resetting with different ratios
- Use online recipe guides to identify the correct combinations
Okay, now that cooking basics are covered, let’s get to whipping up those dumplings!

Obtaining Ingredients for Small Sesame Rice Dumplings
Cooking up a batch of dumplings takes just three forageable ingredients:

This ingredient is easily foraged from the abundant Brown Rice plants located all across Raincaller Island and surrounding areas. Open chests and harvest nodes.
