What can I cook in Nivalis Nights? Pantry finder by ingredient

Quick answer

Chicken, Onions and Ramen Noodles make Chicken Noodle Soup, the recipe you start with. Wheat alone makes Beer, Onions and Flour make Onion Rings, and Tonkotsu Ramen needs Ramen Noodles, Pork Belly, Egg and Bok Choy, according to community recipe references. Tick what you have below to see what you can cook now and which dish is one ingredient away. Four more dishes named by the developer show as Unknown until a source lists their ingredients.

These lists name ingredients, not quantities. A dish also needs the recipe learned and its processor in the venue; check the expanded recipe on your menu.

Where to get each ingredient

Unknown means the sources Kingy has checked don’t name a seller yet. Neoseeker’s Noodle Bar walkthrough lists vendor types for Beer, Onion Rings and Tonkotsu Ramen. Since Update #4, each venue’s inventory also shows which ingredients your current menu uses.

Ingredients are one of three checks

A dish under Cook now has every ingredient on its reported list. To serve it you also need the recipe learned and the right processor in the venue. Community soup references list a Cooker for both soups and a Food Processor for assembly. Since Update #4, a red icon on a menu recipe means it lacks an ingredient or a processor; expand it to see which.

Chicken Noodle Soup is known from the start. Beer, Onion Rings and Tonkotsu Ramen are reported conversation rewards from Nola Berg, Dagmar Fitz and Marius Mitchell in Meridian Market. In one launch-week recording Dagmar refuses after the player says they have taken over the Noodle Bar, so check your journal for Onion Rings before buying Flour.

Tick only what is in the venue’s storage. Purchased food has to be moved there before the kitchen can use it.

Dishes without an ingredient list yet

Cola Chicken, Summer Salad, Meridian Pizza and VegCoffee were named in the developer’s August 14 menu post, which gives no ingredients. The finder lists them as Unknown instead of guessing. For dishes beyond these, the unofficial community catalogue keeps its own recipe records; its cost and profit figures are modeled estimates, not measured venue profit.
