Eternal Return is the glorious combination of MOBA, Survival, and Battle Royale, that allows players to enjoy the best mechanics from all three genres while fighting off their opponents in a hope of being the last person or team standing. In most survival titles, players will need to keep their health up, and this can be done by cooking a variety of tasty dishes, Eternal Return is no different.
Like Breath of The Wild, players can combine the ingredients they have found while scavenging the map to make better meals, increasing the health recovery even further. Some recipes are far more beneficial to craft than others, and therefore it is important that players know what recipes are the best to cook instead of crafting food as soon as the ingredients are available.
10 Fish Cutlet
As a simple meal that can be crafted, players are sure to easily find the resources needed to craft a Fish Cutlet. It unfortunately only gives one charge, which means the item can only be eaten once before needing to be crafted again.
However, this is counteracted by the generous amount of health it gives, players that consume this tasty dish will replenish 550 health gradually.
How To Cook It
- Oil and a lighter must first be put together to make heated oil
- This is then combined with cod to make Fish Cutlet
9 French Fries
Unfortunately, similar to Fish Cutlets, French Fries only have one charge, making it another recipe that will need to be crafted repeatedly. Though this isn't as much of an issue due to all the items required to craft it, can be found easily across the map without any issue.
Players will receive a fairly decent amount of health from eating French Fries, as they gradually regenerate 550 Hit points.
How To Cook It
- Oil and a lighter need to be combined to make heated oil
- Players then combine this with a potato to make French Fries
8 Hard Boiled Egg
Although it is arguably the plainest food on this list, players don't have the time to worry about making 5-star meals, but food that will keep them alive. Hard-Boiled eggs will do exactly that due to their simple recipe.
Although they only give 525 health regeneration, this little egg has 3 charges, meaning players can eat it up to three times before having to make more.
How To Cook It
- Water can be combined with a lighter to make boiling water
- Adding an egg to this will make a hard-boiled egg
7 Stir Fried Ramen
Surviving doesn't have to be living off bread and potatoes, players are also free to try finer things, like ready-made ramen with a bit of oil. Although a basic dish, players will benefit greatly from the two charges that come with it.
It gets better for players, as Stir Fried Ramen also replenishes a total of 575 hit points, making it a worthwhile meal.
How To Cook It
- Combine oil with a lighter to make heated oil
- Incorporating this with ramen will make Stir Fried Ramen
6 Chocolate Chip Cookies
Desserts are another viable option for those surviving in Eternal Return, and they are surprisingly sufficient in keeping players alive. Chocolate Chip Cookies replenish a suitable 622 hit points back and with two charges this makes them incredibly useful to stack in a player's inventory.
Chocolate itself is incredibly common to find across the map, and with little use, players are sure to want to put it to good use by making themselves and their friends some baked treats.
How To Cook It
- Combining milk with a branch makes butter
- Crafting butter with chocolate makes cookies
5 Butter-Fried Potatoes
Butter-Fried Potatoes are very similar to Chocolate Chip Cookies. They take hardly any ingredients that can be easily accessed while replenishing players for a fair amount of hit points. This buttery snack regenerates a total of 622 health as well as having two charges, making the cost of crafting this recipe worth it.
Overall, players are likely to find an abundance of potatoes, and branches can be seen almost anywhere on the map. Players that stack this in their inventory are sure to survive.
How To Cook It
- Combine milk with a branch to make butter
- Merging butter with potatoes makes the final result
4 Choco Pie Box
Few recipes can be made better in such a simple way. As Choco Pie Box doesn't only look yummy but fulfills a delicious amount of health. It is also easy, as players only need to combine Choco Pie with a box to increase the number of charges it has to two.
Regenerating the players' health by 622 hit points, which is also an upgrade from the original recipe, players will always have a box to spare for this small treat.
How To Cook It
- Bread and Chocolate can be combined to make Choco Pie
- Placing this in a box will make Choco Pie Box
3 Fish And Chips
This recipe has the most steps prior to its completion compared to other high-valued recipes that give the best health. To create Fish and Chips, players must first through combine two other dishes together.
Many players, especially beginners, may never get the chance to put this dish together due to the length it takes, however it does give a decent number of 700 hit points as well as having two charges.
How To Cook It
- Oil should be combined with a lighter twice to make two heated oils
- A heated oil should be combined with a potato to make French Fries
- The other heated oil should be combined with cod to make a Fish Cutlet
- Combining the Fish Cutlet with French Fries will make Fish and Chips
2 Zen Vitality
There aren't many edible ingredients included in this recipe, though it still classes as a food in-game for Eternal Return. This is definitely a recipe that more experienced players will wish to pursue, as the items it requires can be incredibly rare, with the Tree of Life only spawning four times a game at specific times and locations.
This item itself is incredibly valuable, replenishing a player's health by 850, and can be used up to three times. It's an item that is a sure way to win the end-game.
How To Cook It
- Combine the Tree of Life with a Buddhist scripture
1 Steak
Fans of Eternal Return, love cooking Steak. It's easy to craft, the ingredients aren't hard to find, and most of all it not only gives decent health but also a large number of charges.
Steak can heal a player for 500 hit points and with 4 charges before it must be crafted again, it is a lot more cost-efficient than other meals.
How To Cook It
- Combining a stone and a lighter will make a heated stone
- Cooking a piece of meat on the heated stone will make Steak
Eternal Return is available on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
