Cooking
About this skill
To start: catch some shrimps, light a fire (logs and a tinderbox), then use the raw shrimps on it. Any open range works too, and burns less: the nearest is the range in the Salty Gull, Millbrook. The cooking range in the Keep Kitchen opens only after The Lantern-Night Loaf.
Bread: pick wheat in the field north of Hearthford Mill, and use the grain on the hopper inside. Then use an empty pot on the flour bin for a pot of flour: flour goes in a pot, not a sack. Fill a bucket at a well or fountain, mix the flour and water into dough, and bake it on a range. Bread won't bake on a fire.
Tools: the Hearthford Sundries sells a tinderbox (1 coin), an empty pot (1 coin) and a bucket (3 coins). Miller Hask at the mill will spare a pot, and Farmer Brann a bucket.
