Cooking and recipes
You cook at Rokkaku’s diner and, after the house is renovated, at home. Two community guides say the pot, stove, and shichirin share one recipe book. Eating the same dish three times at the diner unlocks it.

Recipe and recovery evidence
AppMedia’s dedicated guide describes shared recipes across hangō, kamado and shichirin, home cooking after renovation, and recipe channels through story, friendship and eating an eligible named diner dish three times. Other acquisition routes exist; eating three meals is not a universal unlock rule.
Boiled egg stamina conflicts: AppMedia reports 116, while the English Ver.1.09 table reports 113. Corn soup agrees at 208 stamina, 9 HP and base sell price 279. No official balance table resolves the egg difference.

A practical loop
Buy or catch ingredients, eat a diner dish three times if you want the recipe, then cook at home once Kisuke’s renovation allows it. The renovation trigger day is not in an official note.

Questions
Who teaches recipes?
Community guides say Rokkaku’s counter, by eating a dish three times.
Do tools have different recipes?
Two guides say they share one list.
What restores the most stamina?
Corn soup is listed at 208 by the two cited sources. That example does not establish the highest value among all recipes.
Can I cook on day one?
You can eat at the diner. Home cooking waits on the renovation.
Are recipe names official English?
Many tables are Japanese or Chinese. English labels may differ in Patch 1.30.
