A kitchen is operated by a dwarf with the [[Cook|cooking]] [[labor]] enabled. It is used to cook meals and render fat from [[Butcher's shop|butchered]] animals into [[tallow]]. Cooking meals applies a [[quality]] modifier to the sum of the input products, which may drastically increase the food's value. Cooked meals [[rot]] more slowly when placed in a stockpile, but any [[seed]]s from raw crops are lost.

Better meals result in larger stacks of food, but require more hauling, take longer to produce and provide slower experience gains for your cook. Also, with a greater variety of materials in the prepared meal, there is a higher probability a dwarf will get something he [[Preferences|likes]], giving the eater a happy [[thought]].

At least one stack going into a prepared meal must be a solid item. If you have only [[Alcohol|booze]], [[milk]], and [[Dwarven syrup|syrup]], your cooking jobs will get cancelled.  However, a single [[plump helmet]] can be cooked with ten dwarven wine, ten dwarven milk, and ten dwarven syrup to make 31 +Plump Helmet Roast+ without issue.

You may want to adjust what your dwarves are allowed to cook. For example, your dwarves may happily cook away all the seeds you need for planting, or use all your booze as part of the ingredients, a good way to create [[fun]] in the early stages of the fortress. To suppress the cooking of certain items (such as booze, seeds or tallow) go to the status screen ({{k|z}} key) and then go to ''Kitchen''. Every cookable and/or brewable item in your fortress will be listed. Once you allow or forbid the cooking or brewing of some kind of product, it will be used accordingly.
