Where Pottage Instructions Still Apply
The June beta used a Pottage Cooking Stand and pot over a fire. That guide describes the demonstrated pot workflow, while the new pan system has different dishes and developing skill requirements. The food log does not demonstrate exact controls, required quantities, or a guaranteed recipe unlock.
