Cooking Stations Required for Crafting Hearty Vegetable Soup
Initially, you will cook on a Campfire to prepare Grilled Food recipes.

Ingredients for Hearty Vegetable Soup
The ingredients needed for the Hearty Vegetable Soup recipe are as follows:

Vegetables are obtained by planting vegetable seeds and harvesting them when they are fully mature.

Regarding spice, Palia offers five different spices. The easiest one to obtain is the Spice Sprouts. You can find Spice Sprouts by foraging in the Mirror Fields. As for mushrooms, they are one of the earlier ingredients in the game, and you can locate Mountain Morel mushrooms in the Maji’s Hollow area.
