'''Cooking''' is a [[Skills|skill]] that determines the likelihood of burning certain food items; these foods usually have the "Uncooked" or "Raw" tag. In builds up to 30, reaching level 4 allows rotten ingredients to be used in some recipes, allowing 5% of the ingredient to be added to the recipe; level 5 allows for 10% of the ingredient to be added. In Build 31 skills were changed to have 10 levels, and you must now reach cooking level 7 to start using rotten ingredients. Cooking can be performed in any [[Heat Source]].
