While it’s not one of the main skills, I’ve gotten a couple of requests to go over food in Stardew Valley, so I’ll oblige. Get a good look at what makes food important, how to find all of the recipes, and which recipes I think are better than the rest! And now, while writing this description, I can’t believe I didn’t put in a single Breaking Bad joke. I’m not rendering that video again.

what if Gus is the real queen of the sauce?
My main foods to go for are Sashimi until I get the Eggplant Parmesan recipe with the green house. I rather grow a variety of crops that regrow instead of one type in the green house. Two of these crops are tomatoes and eggplants for that recipe. The mining and defense buffs feel better to have when going into the mines for ores.
Mining level has no impact on finding normal ore nodes. It only (very minorly) effects gem stone nodes, and more significantly effects gem nodes and mystic stones.
Bug steak is great early game in the mines, as you get the drops as you go
you can stock up on Crab Cakes after a 6 heart event with Willie to get him crabs for Gus, buying as much as you can spend, the speed up + defense are 2 good stats for mining and the effect lasts all day, freeing up one slot and never having to worry about reapplying the speed up pepper poppers or spicy eels use
sheeesh
It's definitely not a cooked dish, but I always default to cheese as a plain healing item – super easy to make in bulk, and better than salads for healing and energy recovery. Just for anyone wanting a much cheaper alternative!
Spicy Eel
0:52 what is that abomination you have in your house on the far right? >_>
I can't confirm that wednesday's re-runs prioritize not learned recipes, I'm heading into year 6 to learn the ones I missed in Fall…
13:42 “oh”
2:45 please note the cookie recipe from Gus is only unlocked if Evelyn’s 4 heart event bugs out and doesn’t give you the recipe
You probably won't see this, but im in summer year two and i got a lucky lunch in the saloon trash. Wouldn't that be better to take to the skull cavern + coffee than pumkin soup?
Love these videos. A guide to friendship would be great. It’s the thing I always neglect so it ends up being a complete pain.
i like cooking certain food just because they look so tasty haha
Man I love this person's voice. I need them to read me a bed time story.
The scene where you explained the fishing buff was extremely painful to watch, not.the explanation, just the way you fished was so sacrilegious…
I like crab cakes. They give you speed for pretty much the whole day. Makes foraging a lot easier.
wwwooo i love it
Thanks I didn’t know any of that
Cooking? Nah, i use golden quality strawberries to recover energy in skull caverns and buy the coffee
Glazed Yams.
My go-to food bar none. Cheap to make, massive restore, and considerable pizazz. I'm surprised it's not mentioned that often.
"Queen of
theSauce." That bugs me more than it should.Yeah, I'm late but so what? That "collections" wiki page is a lifechanger!
Binge watching all of these Videos rn and loving it!
Hello, I just learned about Stardew Valley, so I'm about 7 years late I guess. But I love the game so far. Your content and your way of explaining things has been super entertaining and helpful so far! I just wanted to say thank you for the nice tips and all of those videos! Have a great day 🧡💜
imagine eating crayfish sashimi
My girlfriend has heart attacks while our money goes down, then she knows what happens as I run onto the farm with my 200 salads
I think the roots platter is something of note, just takes a cave carrot and winter root which are both things you can very easily get in winter and just a short bit in the mines, in turn you get 100 energy and +3 attack
awsome!!
Gus the recipe thief!!
