[green tendon]

Platform: Playstation 5
Issue: For ingredients marked as "any" (any fish / any sweet/ any vegetable) autofill sometimes uses ingredients that turn the dish into something else that I wanted (for example it says "any vegetable", but for particular ones it creates a different dish whatsoever). Example: "Any sweet" in waffles recipe - I added legumes which are in sweet section and instead of Waffles I got Porrige (so I wasted ingredients, and one of them completely as legumes was deducted and not used in the dish)

[green tendon]

Platform: Playstation 5
Issue: Friend's favorite gift of the day is a meal that is not possible to be prepared. It is a strawberry pie - strawberries are not one of the ingredients and also the meal is not visible on the list of the meals available in the game.

[proven condor]

Tried to make crepes but it always gives me waffles

Tasty salad also has the same glitch put in the called for ingredients and always end up with hearty salad

[green tendon]

for crepes it has to be specifically vanilla instead of sugarcane from what remember

[dreamy kite]

Platform: PC
Issue: Some recipies don't come out like wanted, despite all the proper ingredients used. Example from my game: I used Raspberry, Wheat and Egg and it keeps coming as Crackers instead of Red Fruit Pie

[patent pumice]

The recipe is Any Fruit (Red), Wheat, and Butter. There is no eggs

Platform: PC (Steam)
Issue: Even with the grilled vegetable recipe selected, adding a single vegetable in the pot makes Crudites.

I have found that clicking "Auto-fill" instead of adding the ingredient myself fixes this issue but sometimes it auto-fills to an ingredient I don't want to use.

[dreamy kite]

Sorry, that's what I meant. I used autofill for it

[stark harness]

Platform: PC
Issue: In the Elsa "What Feels Like Home" Quest, I caught the Glittering Herring, but accidentally used it in the Arendaellian Pickled herring. Is there any fix to this? Luckily it is still raining but the only golden bubbles I am getting are for lobesters.

[elfin jolt]

The Birthday Cake recipe does not show up in quest recipes in cooking UI whilst doing Annas quest "DoYouWanna...".

[arctic void]

Platform: PC
Issue: When cooking at Remy's (this now happens in my house as well! Tested with basic oven and Oven and Hood) ingredients fall to the side of the cooking pot and then poof back to the inventory, preventing cooking from happening. Exiting and restarting the game does not fix the issue. Before this occurred, I cooked 2 fish soups for Merlin and Anna and gave them their orders. Then I returned to cook and it was broken.

Edit: I also own the Switch version - loading up this save on Switch allows me to cook on that console at least.

Final Edit (I hope): I transferred my cloud save over again and tried on PC after successfully cooking on my Switch - the error is still present on the PC version.

Final Edit?!: I just now realized that on PC you DRAG and DROP the ingredients into the pot. I was used to the Switch where you just press the button and the food goes in? I don't think it's a great idea to have this kind of a difference between versions - I literally thought my game was broken! lol.

[prisma bloom]

Platform: XBox
Issue: Grilled vegetables
Recipe calls for any one vegetable, however, only thing that gets you that dish is corn 🤦🏻‍♀️

[marble belfry]

Platform: Gamepass for PC
Issue: Hors d'Ouevres are listed as Entrees, when they are defined as appetizers (small savory dishes served as appetizers)

[compact citrus]

platform: steam
one of ursula's favorite gifts is a strawberry pie, which doesn't exist

[tidal quiver]

Switch
Blue stove that you get from Remy doesn't work.
I can't take a picture, it just doesn't do anything haha. It does zoom out kind of weird but you can't use it at all

[austere cedar]

Same issue, same platform here but with Remy

[stark harness]

that showed up for me yesterday but it was Kristoff who wanted it. still confused.

[sacred turtle]

I'm trying to make Vegetarian Stew but it's giving me Grilled Veggie Platter. 😔

[arctic void]

Use a potato instead of the tomato, that might work

[tidal ingot]

Platform: Steam
Grilled eel is a bonus gift, yet doesn't exist as a;

1. Meal you can cook
2. Fish you can catch
   Could the developer look into removing this meal option from the game, at least make it so it no longer appears as a friendship bonus

[sacred turtle]

That worked thank you!!!!

[pseudo badge]

Platform: Windows/Steam
Issue: The Pan Seared Bass and Vegetables dish has the descriptive text "A thick cut of perfectly cooked anglerfish"

[torn tulip]

Same issue. Xbox one.

[compact citrus]

platform steam
trying to make tasty salad but no matter what combo i get hearty salad instead

[ornate flicker]

Platform: PC Gamepass
Red Fruit Pie craft gives crackers
Tried: Raspberry, Wheat, Butter

[torn tulip]

Platform: Xbox one
Issue: Fav food -
Yesterday it was strawberry pie. Today's its grilled eel.
These meals are not options to make.

[outer merlin]

This is occurring on Switch as well for me.

[grand fjord]

Platform: PC
Issue: Crudites and Grilled Vegatables are both being marked as only needing one Vegetable, so I'm tryig nto make Grilled Veggies but it makes Crudites instead.

[frail plover]

Plagform Switch
Issue : in Elsa's quest « What Feels Like Home » when she asks to cook her a fish pie. I wanted to be too fast and I cooked the dish just before I got this quest (the previous quest was to collect the necessary ingredients) and now l'm stuck because it asked me to cook the dish I already have in my inventory and can't do it again, because I don't have the dandelion syrup anymore…

[lusty venture]

No option to serve meal in restaurant (switch)

[weary dawn]

Xbox game pass
Trying to make Donald his meal in the restaurant wanting grilled veggies keeps giving me crudités

[glass imp]

Platform: Switch, quest: Feels like home. So I got the quest and made the dandelion syrup and caught the special herring. However I went and just made the pie, thinking the quest telling me to have wheat and butter in my actual pocket was just a formality as I had plenty in storage. Seeing it wasn’t I went and got some and then it told me to go bake the pie, except now I can’t. I can’t catch another fish and I can’t make more syrup, and Elsa won’t accept the one I’ve already made. I haven’t played the game in five days is there any way to fix this other than complete new game?

[floral cape]

Platform: PS5 & Switch
Issue: opening a recipe book does nothing

[keen pier]

Same issue here
Platform: switch
Issue: blue "oven and hood" does not allow you to complete the cooking process when interacting with it. It begins the zoom animation and the resets to regular view

[balmy fossil]

Platform:PS4
Issue: Trying to fill Potatoe Leek Soup Order using Correct ingredients but it makes Grilled Veggie Platter.

[sweet isle]

Platform: PC/Steam
Issue: I keep trying to make a crepe, but it shows that it's the correct ingredients for waffles every time I try to make one.

[autumn plinth]

Platform: PC (Steam)
Issue: Can't scroll up on recipe list right after making something from a recipe
I started noticing this bug two days ago. Go to a stove. Select a recipe. Click Autofill. Select Start Cooking. Click to return to the stove top and recipe list. Try to scroll up using the mousewheel. It doesn't move upwards at all. Scroll down using the mousewheel (works perfectly). You must scroll down or use the scroll bar to move up before you can scroll to move up.

[keen garnet]

Platform: Steam
Issue: I can't make Grilled Veggies! All I get is Crudites

[tall creek]

System: Steam
Issue: I am trying to cook meals for the Peacemakers quest but no matter what i try to cook the ingredients just fall to the ground and do not go into the pot. I cannot make meals for energy or quests 😦

[sinful berry]

Platform:steam, cooking the dawn fragment is bugged for me, I cooked the recipe to clean the stone and it is in my inventory but it still wants me to collect the items but the stone is no longer available to finish because it’s already been cleaned. I have tried to restart but did not work

[spring vessel]

Switch: Cooking ratatouille for Remy - trying a dozen times with the correct ingredients, when I would get to the 4th or 5th ingredient Remy would shake his head no... Halfway through my tries, the pictures of the ingredient stand with, eggplant and tomato, disappeared. After about a dozen times, software crashed.

[livid lance]

Platform: Xbox/Game Pass Quite a few recipes that I follow, TO THE LETTER, of the exact order of ingredients like Leek Potato Soup for example, do not give me that but instead give me Grilled/Roasted vegetables.

[hazy inlet]

Platform: Nintendo switch with certain wheat recipes i can follow the recipes but I always get something else. For example I followed the cheesecake recipe but I keep getting crackers. Also I'm not sure if this is a glitch but my villagers ask for strawberry pie?

[celest bear]

Switch
cooking in Remy's realm for ratatouille with pockets full cause blinking pot and rapid flashing of the inventory screen. eventually got out and it eventually crashed

[torn tulip]

Platform: Xbox One

Tasty Salad turns into Hearty Salad even when following the recipe.

[livid lance]

Platform: Xbox One/ Game Pass, Was trying to craft Mint Chocolate & the first picture is what I got but after that the candy would stay on the screen after I would cook anything else 🤣

[unique kraken]

PC/Steam: crafting Red Fruit Pie and Vegetarian Stew recipes do not work and craft into other things. Recipe for Tasty Salad was also incorrect but I managed to figure it out with Lettuce/Zucchini/Cucumber/Any Herb - using any vegetable other than those crafted into a Hearty Salad instead.

[daring lotus]

Platform: Switch
Issue: Stove is bubbling in my house not using stove

[feral stirrup]

Platform: Nintendo Switch
Isuue: Hello, I have a problem on Nintendo Switch. In the friendship level 10 quest "RESTORE THE SUNSTONE" from Mother Gothel I have cooked the fragment of dawn but the quest has not progressed. I can not do anything. There is a Bug.

[fast fern]

Platform: PC/Steam
Issue: I upgraded Remi's restaurant to lvl 2. I have only unlocked the meadow , beach, and forest. Goofy sat down in the restaurant and requested an uncookable item, as I have no way to get potatoes. He wanted potato leek soup.

Not sure if this would classify as a bug, but as it stands in the game I cannot obtain the one item that would let me cook the dish. It's not available in Remi's little shop, nor at Goofy's stall.

[finite saffron]

My main cooking issue is the ingredients are too vague...it is confusing on how to get the same recipe each time. For example grilled veggies. You can use three veggies, but you don't get the grilled veggies each time. Sometimes I end up with Crudites.

[nimble oracle]

Platform: Xbox
I keep trying to make Elsa's fish pie for her quest "What Home Feels Like" and whenever I add the dandelion syrup it flat out refuses to cook anything (I have a ton of coal so I know that's not the problem)

[wary sparrow]

(I don't know where else to put this since there isn't a thread for other issues)
Platform: PC (Gamepass)
Issue: I seem to no longer be able to overcharge my energy and thus I can't get the speed boost. This started happening (I think) when one time I saved and quit with overcharge and the next time I started the game the overcharge was gone. (I don't remember using it all up) Since then I can no longer overcharge. :(
Photo/Video: N/A

[regal thistle]

platform: xbox. i try to make red fruit pie but get crackers. i have tried various fruits but always get crackers. i also have an issue with tasty salad. i always get hearty salad

[feral halo]

Platform: PC
I have this problem too!! I can´t cook anything at all..

[shrewd hill]

Platform: PC/steam
Issue: Leek potato soup ingredients make Grilled vegetables. ):

[autumn plinth]

Platform: PC (Steam)
Issue: Mushu's Congee always comes out as Crackers
I understand that we need to explore to learn new recipes. I also know that there are a ton of websites with recipes for this game. They all indicate that its one mushroom, one egg, one ginger, one garlic, and one wheat. When I watch the videos other people make (for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4y438EEFQn8) they get congee. When I do it, I always get crackers. This seems like a bug (though it could just be I don't understand recipes).

[autumn plinth]

You have to pull the ingredient and then drop it in the center of the pot for it to go in and show up in the row below the pot. If you just click it, it will drop, fall off the table, and then everything will reset.

[tall creek]

omg 🤦‍♀️ thank you so much!

[void tiger]

Laptop: Moana is requesting Futomaki but it's not on any recipe list I've found online?

[slender scarab]

mickey wants grilled eel, isn't this not even a menu item right now? no eels no grilled eels?

[hybrid crater]

Platform: PC
Issue: Marinated Herring is in a jar on the stove, but a picture of sushi roll
Image: in replies

[sturdy slate]

I came here today to report this exact issue. Tried making cheesecake, got crackers.

[rare sundial]

Platform: PC
Issue: Similar to others--cooking with a single vegetable only creates Crudites, no Grilled Vegetables, even when I use "autofill" from the recipe.

[cunning wadi]

General Issue:
Just as a simplified example, it seems weird to me that one whole hard-boiled egg has more energy in it than a bowl of pasta. Of Sicilian descent, I’m just mildly insulted that I could eat eggs as a sturdy source of energy, but would have to eat stacks of pasta to get the same distance

Tacking it on that, for the PS4, I can’t place virtually anything coconut-related. I can’t put coconuts on counters, nor coconut ice cream.

[plush sandal]

My sister is having a weird issue, despite having coal in both her inventory and storage chests, she is unable to cook.

[signal pivot]

Yeah same. For the PC (Steam). I am soft locked from cooking. I have coal but I am unable to cook anything.

[gaunt haven]

System: Switch I have been trying to cook since yesterday. I have all of the ingredients and coal ore, but when I go to cook the meal, it isn’t registering that I have any coal ore. I’ve restarted the game and the console, dropped my coal and picked it back up. I’ve even sold it all and mined new coal. Nothing seems to work

[sweet isle]

bug ; If you make the stone soup in advance, the mission bugs and you can't finish it.

[cosmic bough]

Same issue on Xbox, having coal in both storage and inventory, and when cooking it says I dpn't have coal ore. Sold all my coal and mined new one, and still not working

[rare bluff]

2 days in a row i had Mother Gothel then Anna ask for the recipe Futomaki in their favourite things of the day. i’ve looked up all the recipes and made every one and there is no recipe called that in the game even in the collection tab it says i have 164/164 meals. also unlike any other recipe with the word maki in it it doesn’t have a space between futo and maki it’s all one word. idk if it’s a recipe that’s being added next update and this is just a favourite things bug but it’s there nonetheless

[glass imp]

Quest: What home feels like
I made the pie before the quest told me to do so, and now I can’t craft another one as I am missing both the herring AND the dandelion syrup, and can’t complete the quest. Has there been a fix for this yet? I haven’t played the game in months waiting for a fix as I REALLY don’t want to restart my game

[old vigil]

Platform : switch
Issues : can't cook things with peanuts
For Remy's Quest, I'm unable to cook the things he wants with peanuts. I gave him peanuts as he requested. Get back to his world, and then I noticed I can't pick peanut anymore. And I don't have it on my shelves as I see on screencaps. I restarted my game bc I thought I ate them, but I've the same problem 😦

[eternal cedar]

Is anyone else having issues with coal and cooking? I have loads of coal ore but when I go to cook it says I don’t have any

[rugged spear]

I have found if it calls for a sweet item and not specificallly sugarcane, use vanilla. I don't know why but that helped me. every so often it is cocoa but mostly vanilla.

[woven steppe]

Platform: Switch
I installed the update, but I'm still unable to cook. The game doesn't register that I have coal.

[tidal crest]

Platform: Switch
Issues: Game is saying I didn't make the root beer even after I made it( it is doing this with the gems as well not saying I got them even know I did)
