What is this about?

The important points:

Recipe quirks

The game’s scoring relies on the correct amount of food, the right number of pieces (cuts), the correct weights for each piece, how close it is to being 100% cooked, the temperature before serving, the method used for heating (more later), and the flavouring distribution of each piece– of the final served dish. These may sound daunting at first, but it also means that nothing else actually matters:
 

• The order of application of spices or its distribution do not matter, as long as they all get applied to the necessary pieces. Which leads to..
• If the final dish doesn’t contain it, you don’t need it in the intermediate step. Beef Chuck with Potatoes and Garlic Sauce does not need the garlic for this reason; the game doesn’t know if a liquid has been in contact with a solid food (while the other way around works), so the garlic doesn’t actually do anything.

   
   
   
   
   
  

• Therefore, if the final dish doesn’t ask for it, absolutely avoid doing it. This has a consequence: for soup with garnishes, if the garnishes soak the soup, there may be score penalties because the recipe has never asked for a ‘garnish with flavourings’.
• The non-obvious aspect of the order not being important: some recipes will ask of you to apply spices, cook it, then apply spices again. You can instead cook and then apply all spices in the recipe, or the other way around. The Chinese Egg Drop Soup is very easy despite its tier, because you can add the egg and second half of the spices to the pot at the start of the recipe.
• Frying and boiling works in an odd way; the solid foods soak up the moisture of the surrounding liquids, and give back the juices of the solid foods back into the liquid (different from blended solid foods). This means that, if the final product does not concern the mixture liquid created from solid ingredients, drizzling is just as good, as long as you can get the correct amount. Salmon with Potatoes, for example, does not need salmon fried on oil; it can be fried on plain pan, with the oil drizzled later.
• The game doesn’t clearly express it, but the cookedness of things that get blended actually seem to matter post-blend. Cooking a Red Pepper and Tomato Soup with unbaked red pepper will result in flavour penalties.

Cooking process

• If the recipe tells you to create a mixture of liquids and spices, and then drizzle it onto the ingredients, forget about the ‘drizzling’ part entirely; pour and dash the individual parts directly onto the food. The aiming mechanics for dashing/pouring from base ingredients are far easier than drizzling from a mixture.

   
   
   
   
   
  

• The size of red dot that shows when pouring liquids or shaking spices matter. If the object below is too small, it will receive less flavours.
• Using the above two points, if the recipe asks of drizzling liquids onto ingredients, do that before you cut the ingredients to pieces. The flavourings are considered to be fully distributed over the entire ingredient, even if the visuals clearly don’t suggest that.

   
   
   
   
   
  

• Forget all concerns for safety and cleanliness. Once you get the perk for handling hot food, you can forget about using baking trays and chuck everything into the oven.
• When in panic, you can try to check off everything that gives score except for the most time-consuming part: having to fully cook something. Even though if in real life, you would most likely end up with an angry/sick customer and lawsuits this way, you’ll still get a pleased customer if the rest of the food isn’t too reliant on cooking:

   
   
   
   
   
  

• if you’re in a real hurry, you can try to skip out on entire components of a food. You’ll most likely lose out on fame points, but you still get paid and receive EXP.

   
   
   
   
   
  

Heating methods

• The blowtorch is an extremely fast cooker, easily cooking twice~thrice the speed of stoves and ovens. However, like the microwave, it only cooks in its own heating method type (despite the icon suggesting it to be Baked type). This can be circumvented, however:
• If you have solid ingredients sitting in a liquid that is mostly (over 50%) non-oils, any methods of applying heat will make it considered boiled. Doing that on the grill, in the stove, or even the deep fryer will not change this. You can hear clear water dunking sounds when the liquid meets this criteria and you put a solid ingredient in.

   
   
   
   
   
  

• Similarly, ingredients sitting in a liquid that is mostly oils (includes juices from fried meats) will cause a fried status, regardless of the heating medium. Unique to frying is that applying heat directly from the stove will also work. However, using anything but pans for foods that require flipping over (eg. salmon) will get glitchy and refuse to let you cook the other side.
• Baking happens from the oven, and the deep fryer that is activated without filling it with oil. That said, keep all deep fryers filled with oil to avoid some score penalties on accidentally baking your fries.

Microwave

• If your food takes a long time to cook (+minute) then the temperature will rise faster than it will overcook. Re-heat it in the original method that it was meant to be heated. If you are working with a large pot of soup, this may be faster in the long run since you don’t need to reheat individual dishes– and you can’t really microwave the big pot.
• Don’t even bother re-heating, if you’re running out of time. You’ll have a slight point penalty no matter what you do, anyway.
• If you’re feeling experimental, and you’ve fully understood the cooking method overriding tricks from the previous section, you can try them with the microwave. However, I’ve personally had very inconsistent, glitchy results with it– for example, microwaving a solid food sitting in water can sometimes lead to boiling effect, but sometimes microwaved effect.

Career Mode

There is never a shortage of customers. Therefore, getting to fame level 5 is all about spamming dishes with the best fame-points-per-second. Taking advantage of this becomes the matter of using your prep time per day, and never upgrading recipes. Make multiple litres of easy soups, leaving them in many big pots, and heating them up directly before serving as needed. These are:
 

• Tomato Soup (+ Red Pepper)
• Fast Pumpkin Soup
• Chinese Egg Drop Soup
• Gazpacho
• Borsht

• Baked Trout: Prepare multiple trouts, each half cooked, pre-spiced with 5g of all listed spices (including horseradishes, as explained earlier), and quartered lemons. Fill the last half of the cookedness bar for the trout every time there’s an order.
• Salmon with Potatoes: Prepare salmons, fully cooked on one side. Temperature will take care of itself when you receive orders and cook the other side. Prepare big pots with water, salt, and potatoes.

Whether you’re already a master in the kitchen or just getting started, Cooking Simulator is a fun way to practice your culinary skills. But you know what mom used to say: “if you’re going to make a mess in the kitchen, you better clean it up!” The same applies in the video game, too, I’m afraid, so here’s how to clean in Cooking Simulator if you’ve been avoiding it for way too long.

During the cleaning phase, there are a couple of things you’ll need to know in order to keep things spick and span. First, what the cleaning instruments are. You can use a sponge or mop to clean the kitchen, and broken glass can be thrown into the trash bin.

Using cleaning instruments is as simple as locating them in the kitchen, interacting with them, and then using them on the desired location/spillage.

For those that are struggling with finishing their cooking session in a timely manner, our advice is to keep your cooking operation as tidy as possible.

It’s important to remember that there are three phases to each cooking session (prep, cooking, cleaning), and each is related to one another.

Making sure that you’re as efficient as possible across all three phases will ensure a quick and easy tidy up once you’ve completed your orders.

Always use a chopping board, for example, and when you have liquids that need to be dispensed of, throw these in the trash can rather than down the sink. As it happens, cleaning the sink is much more time-consuming and difficult.

As you progress through the game, one handy perk to unlock is called ‘Fairy Touch,’ which allows you to clean the whole kitchen instantly.

As for equipment, over time you’ll find that certain kitchen apparatus ceases to function properly after they begin to appear rusty or dirty, such as the oven. For this, you’ll need to use your cell phone to call a repairman.

That does it for how to clean in Cooking Simulator. For more useful tips and guides on the game, be sure to search Twinfinite.
