In the world of “Tales of the Shire“, it’s essential that you cultivate and gather edibles to cook meals for your newly acquired companions residing in Bywater. To ensure these meals turn out well, it’s advantageous to amass a variety of recipes at your disposal.
To gather all 120 recipes from the book “Tales of the Shire“, it’s recommended that you make an effort to strengthen relationships with those around you. This can be achieved by preparing meals and extending invitations for hobbits to join you in enjoying your culinary creations together.
Once you’ve finished the tutorial in “Tale of the Shire”, start preparing meals for the village hobbits to strengthen your bonds with them. Each time you extend an invitation for a meal, you’ll gain friendship points, elevating your relationship level with that character. As you advance in fellowship levels, you’ll be rewarded with new recipes. Some villagers may also gift you extra items such as furniture, food, chickens, and even unique goods in their shops.
This article is a work in progress and will be updated as more information becomes available.
