Boiling Eggs [B42]

Description
This mod fills a gap in the cooking system by adding simple boiled egg recipes. Cook eggs in boiling water to create Poached Egg[pzwiki.net] and Boiled Egg[pzwiki.net].

Why Use This Mod?
  • Did you survive the chickenpocalypse? Now you’re trying to stop it from happening again by eating every egg.
  • Sick of having only baked eggs on the menu?
  • Chasing that protein high to keep your Strength maxed out?

Then this mod is for you! It adds the 2 recipes missing from vanilla to unlock Boiled and Poached egg variants, so you can diversify your eggs and get a consistent protein source without hurting happiness by eating the same "baked" eggs repeatedly.

Key Features
  • Boil eggs in hot water from the context menu, similar to the sterilizing bandages process
  • Boil eggs using the Crafting Menu (requires being near a hot water source)
  • Minimal water consumption per action

Compatibility
  • Uses vanilla egg items and only adds missing recipes, so the mod has no compatibility issues

I poached, boiled and ate eggs for 15 days straight. I am alive but am I really living?

@⸸BïGfÅÇË⸸ Good catch! I also tried to track down which mod had boiled eggs but couldn’t find it, which is why I ended up making this one.

Personally, I tried Sapph’s Cooking a while ago but found it a bit overwhelming - too many new items cluttering containers, too many recipes with lots of intermediate stages, and not always clear info on the nutrients I’d get (though it does have its own wiki, which helps a bit).

So if anyone prefers really complex cooking expansions, Sapph’s Cooking might be a better fit, and you wouldn’t need this mod. Both include a boiled egg recipe, but only this mod also supports poached eggs recipe.
