Overview
The Cooking Pot is used for creating food items and dyes.
The Cooking Pot can be lit by placing a fuel source such as 
Thatch, 
Wood, 
Sparkpowder or 
Angler Gel into its inventory and activated by pressing the 'Use' key (default E or pressing and holding 
). Holding the 'Use' key will open the radial menu, where the player can choose to open its inventory, light it, or destroy it.
Usage
The Cooking Pot is used to craft 
Food Items as well as 
Kibble.
It is also used to create 
Soap and all different colors of 
Dyes.
After putting the necessary ingredients into the cooking pot, including fuel and a Waterskin, Water Jar or Canteen that is at least 25% full, light the fire using the button below its inventory slots. Every few seconds (or possibly every minute), the ingredients will be consumed and produce one item. Water Jars and Canteens, despite holding two and three times as much water as a waterskin, are all single use.
Fuel
The Cooking Pot can be fueled by various flammables.
Using Thatch, Sparkpowder or Angler Gel will help to avoid creating Charcoal, which is used in dyes, disrupting many recipes.
Recipes
See the Recipes for a list of Recipes. Make sure when making edibles to take out charcoal as dyes will be made if using several water containers. If charcoal is not removed, the cooking pot will make both your recipe and a dye when enough berries are placed in the inventory.
You can also create your own recipes. See the Custom Consumable page for more info.
Notes
- The upgraded version of the Cooking Pot is the
Industrial Cooker.
- The Cooking Pot is treated as a thatch structure and can be damaged by anything except non-explosive ranged attacks.
- By putting water containers on your hotbar, standing in a source of water and building the Cooking Pot in front of you, it is possible to keep the Cooking Pot in water without closing its inventory thus reducing necessary trips to a beach or water tap.
- If a cooking pot is touching or too close to water, the button to light the fire won't show up.
The Cooking Pot is not currently paint-able, however this object may be re-mapped to include paint regions in a future update.
For more information on Paint Regions and how to use them, please view the 
Dye, 
Paintbrush, or 
Spray Painter pages.
