Cooking and Smoking Aquatic Catches

Fish You Can Cook

Three fish are cookable: Lionfish, Perch, and Pike. Each has a cooked result: Cooked Lionfish, Cooked Perch, and Cooked Pike.

Three Cooking Methods

Use any of the four supported recipe types for these fish:

• Smelting in a Furnace — the standard method.
• Campfire cooking — place the raw fish over a Campfire for a slower, fuel-free cook.
• Smoking in a Smoker — the fastest option for bulk cooking.

All three methods produce the same cooked output. Pick based on what you have built: a Smoker for speed, a Campfire for early-game cooking without fuel, a Furnace if you already have one running.

Pickerelweed

Boiled Pickerelweed is a separate food item. Boiled Pickerelweed Block is the block form, useful for storage or decoration. Keep the two distinct: the item is for eating, the block is for placing.
