Cooking Recipe Spawn IDs for Stardew Valley

Cooked food in Stardew Valley does two jobs: it fills the Chef's Bundle and the Cook's Bundle in the Community Center, and it delivers buffs that meaningfully change how a day plays out (extra speed on harvest day, extra defense for a Skull Cavern run, max energy for the Fishing Festival). Every cooked dish is a numeric Object, so the naming cheat hands them over even before you have the recipe or the kitchen.

The list below is the practically useful subset — recipes the community reaches for, plus the bundle slots that are gated on cooking. Donuts and the joke items are skipped.

Bundle-critical dishes

Buff foods for mining and combat

Each of these stacks a positive combat or speed effect that lasts roughly seven to ten in-game hours.

Speed and fishing dishes

Energy and gold value

A few dishes are worth spawning purely as fuel. They restore high energy per slot and can be eaten without any buff conflict.

Cooking notes

Spawned dishes always arrive at base quality, the same as anything else from the naming cheat. They still satisfy the Chef's Bundle slots, and the buffs apply at full strength — quality affects sell price and recipe XP but not buff magnitude. The one dish worth chasing through normal cooking is Magic Rock Candy because the recipe is hidden and the buffs stack favorably — but spawning it sidesteps the whole hunt.

Pair the most useful three on an animal name like [279][204][243] — Magic Rock Candy, Lucky Lunch, and Miner's Treat — for a single Skull Cavern run that hits luck, magnet, and mining at the same time.
