Hey Gourmet Chef! I will guess that you want to cook every possible recipe in Stardew Valley. If so, you came to the right place. There is 71 different recipes in Stardew Valley. Quite a lot cooking if you ask me! But maybe it’s just the right amount, if you are thinking about getting a Gourmet Chef achievement. They don’t name you a chef for no reason!

There are many ways in which cooking in Stardew Valley is beneficial. Various dishes are needed as quest items, some dishes make great gifts to some of the NPCs, cooked meals can give you extra energy, improve your skills, or simply restore your health or energy when needed.

However, if you ended up here, you are probably after the Gourmet Chef achievement. To cook something you will need to know recipes of course. There are various ways of getting recipes, however this is not the place to discuss them. Say, you already have all the recipes in Stardew Valley.

I don’t like cooking in real life, so I prefer not to cook in Stardew Valley as well (matter of principle perhaps?). Despite all the benefits that it can bring, I only started wondering about that kitchen in my house when the quest item was a meal and after that when I decided it was high time I got that Gourmet Chef achievement. If you are at least a bit like me, you will enjoy this list of all the products that are required to cook every possible recipe in Stardew Valley.

Here’s what you will need and where to get those items (mind you, you will need to keep Fried Egg, 2 plates of Hashbrowns, Pancakes, 2 Tortillas, 3 loafs of Bread, and an Omelet for other recipes, the ingredients for these extra dishes are included in the list, though):
