As a seasoned gamer with countless hours spent slaying monstrous beasts and crafting intricate gear in the fantastical world of Monster Hunter Wilds, I must say that the addition of cooking mini-cutscenes has elevated my gaming experience to new heights.

In Monster Hunter Wilds, they’ve delivered on our expectations by incorporating numerous short scenes where your characters take breaks to enjoy a meal. The food depicted is mouth-watering, making this an ideal destination if you’re keen to learn more about cooking and dining within the game.

How to cook and eat food – Monster Hunter Wilds

You can prepare meals in a campsite either inside your tent or out in the open fields with the help of your portable barbecue grill. Regardless of where you choose, you’ll be able to cook the same types of food. Additionally, there’s no restriction on what you can do when you’re away from your campsite.

As a gamer, I navigate my way to my trusty tent. Inside, I interact with the tent, and there, on the right-hand menu, I find the fourth option labeled “Grill a Meal.” Out in the wilderness, it’s essential to pick a secluded spot free of monstrous threats. Pressing the left bumper button on my controller, I dive into the Fixed Items section and select the Portable BBQ Grill. With that, I set up my grill, ready to cook whatever deliciousness catches my fancy.

As a keen enthusiast, I can simply navigate using my mouse and scroll wheel. Just a quick spin up or down takes me to the mini-menu conveniently placed at the lower right corner of the screen.

There are a few options on what you can do once you start cooking.

Recommended Meals

Here are some tried-and-true recipes the game may suggest for you to prepare. These dishes can be cooked using only rations, offering enhancements to your health, stamina, as well as additional benefits depending on the type of ration (more details provided below). Alternatively, you can opt for “Customize Ingredients & Cook,” which results in a meal that not only provides the previous benefits but also increases your resistance to damage and grants some temporary cooking skills.

Custom Meals

Here are homemade dishes where you customize the menu by selecting the meal type, extra components, and final garnishes. These meals offer bonus health and stamina as well.

  • Meat +2 Attack
  • Fish +4 Defense
  • Veggies + 2 Defense, +3 Resistances

Including the specified ingredients extends the cooking time by approximately 20 minutes (as far as I’ve observed), and it grants you a “Food Skill” in the process. To learn more about this skill, check out its description located at the bottom of your screen.

Ultimately, The Finishing Touches offer various resistance types against elements, choose the one that suits your upcoming quest best. Additionally, they’ll grant an extra boost, like amplifying your total healing abilities. You can find this bonus at the screen’s lower region.

To store your personalized meals, navigate to the sub-menu and click on “Edit Saved Meals.” Your custom meals will be conveniently located in the ‘Custom Meal’ section for swift and effortless preparation. Upon cooking, the meal is consumed instantly, providing you with enhanced battle stats that last throughout the gameplay duration.
