	When starting your shift, your first job is to decide what's on the menu for the shift. Order the [[Botanist\|Botanists]] on what to grow. Next, go to [[Cargo Technician\|Cargo]] and order a [[Fauna\|Cow]] if you don't already have ~~one.

Different species have different dietary requirements, so make sure you provide a diverse array of meals for the station's diverse population.

	~~In an emergency where you just cannot source ingredients~~, ~~plead with~~ [[~~Scientist~~\|~~Scientists~~]] ~~or [[Chemist\|Chemists]] to generate [[Chemistry\|Sugar~~ and ~~Salt]] out of thin air~~. ~~Remember~~ to ~~return their container if~~ you ~~want them~~ to ~~not get irritated~~.

	~~When ending your shift, remember to stock up on your created foodstuffs and haul them with you (in a crate if need-be) to Evac. On the shuttle be sure to fill the tables with your food.~~		== Tips ==

	~~== Things~~ to ~~keep in mind ==~~		* You'll usually want to ask for assistance from the station's [[Botanist\|Botanists]], as they can grow the ingredients you'll need for some of your recipes. [[Cargo]] can also order ingredients and livestock for you.
			* Sticking to a specific menu will make your life easier, as you won't need a bazillion different ingredients on hand. Make sure any other kitchen staff know which foods you're all making, and teach them the recipes if necessary.

	* ~~A small menu will make your life (as well as [[Botanist\|Botany]]'s) infinitely easier~~ as you ~~won~~'~~t need a bazillion different ingredients on hand. Make sure all kitchen staff know the recipes for the foods~~ you want~~, and teach them if necessary~~.		* Foods such as pizzas, cakes, and loaves of bread can be cut into serving-sized slices, making them good for feeding the station en masse. Note that unsliced food usually takes less inventory space, so if you're planning to deliver food to another department you might want to deliver it unsliced (alongside a plastic knife to slice it with).

	* Most cooked foods can be cut into slices, deliver these to customers instead of the entire batch. Food is expensive in labor and a single [[Passenger\|Greytider]] doesn't need a whole pizza.		* If you plan to work in your freezer for an extended period of time, you should wear a winter coat to avoid taking cold damage.
			* Mice will often sneak into the kitchen to eat any food left on the countertops. Keeping your food inside of a closed container (such as a locker, crate, food cart, or backpack) will prevent mice from being able to eat it. You can set mousetraps under airlocks and tables to help deal with mice, or just chase them down with a cleaver if necessary.
	* Different foods have different nutritional values. Many meat dishes have protein, and other healthy dishes have vitamins. Some healthy dishes, like nettle soup, may even have omnizine.		* The butcher's cleaver is a surprisingly dangerous improvised weapon. You should generally keep it on your person (such as in your belt or backpack) to prevent it from being stolen (or in case you need to defend yourself).
			* An [[Antagonist]] chef can easily "dispose" of any corpses they might need to get rid of.
	* You have a utensil dispenser. It is essentially a vending machine for cups, bowls, mugs, and the like. It also contains knives and your trusty cleaver. Thankfully it can only be accessed normally by the chefs, but if someone gains kitchen access, they can quickly gain a very deadly weapon. Don't be afraid to call Security if there is a trespasser, or complain to the Head of Personnel if they are giving out unneeded access.

	* Your ingredient dispenser will help you get started while Botany is getting in gear.

	* When holding a container such as a bucket or beaker, you can Alt+Click on a Cow in order to fill it with milk.

	* A lot of recipes require Flour. You can craft it by grinding Wheat in your [[Chemist#Reagent_Grinder\|Grinder]].

	* The meat spike in your freezer can be used to easily turn humanoid corpses into meat. To do so, drag-and-drop the body onto the spike, then slice meat off the body with your knife. Note that the meat will be automatically labeled with the original creature's name, but this can be removed with a labeler or by cooking with it if needed.

	* If you plan to work in your freezer~~, whether because you need to store corpses or butcher animals~~, you should wear a winter coat to avoid cold damage~~, especially if you are reptilian as you~~ will ~~freeze much faster. Your ChefDrobe can provide you with one such coat. If you do end up freezing, you can treat~~ the ~~damage with Dermaline at Medbay (chemists usually stock up on those and leave them~~ on the ~~front counter)~~.

	* While not strictly [[Antagonist\|Antagonists]], ~~mice are your greatest enemy. They are small~~, ~~nimble~~, ~~and they~~ will ~~gobble any available piece of food in a matter of seconds~~. You ~~are provided with~~ mousetraps ~~which will instantly kill the pesky critters if they step on them, so feel free~~ to ~~trap every door and table in the kitchen. Alternatively~~, ~~you can~~ just ~~keep your ingredients secure in~~ a ~~closed fridge, as mice are unable to open containers~~.

	* ~~Your Cleaver~~ is ~~extremely deadly, and~~ should ~~be treated~~ as ~~such. Keep it~~ in your ~~pocket~~ or backpack ~~when not in use~~ to prevent ~~stealing, and only use as a last resort~~ or in ~~extreme circumstances, such as assault~~.

	* ~~If you are not an~~ [[Antagonist~~\|Antagonist]], you are not supposed to claim trespassing [[Clown\|Clowns~~]] ~~as ingredients no matter how funny it would be. If you are short on meat, you~~ can ~~use a Monkey Cube.~~

	* Your [[Cooking#The_Microwave\|Microwave]] does not like metal items. Do not put your knife in there by accident when cooking something.

	* Plain bread is the hallmark of ~~the unimaginative Chef. Don't be that Chef.~~

	~~= Recipes =~~
	~~Refer~~ to ~~the [[Cooking#Recipes\|List~~ of ~~Recipes]] and the in-game guide book for all the cooking help you need~~.
