Drizzling

[Kardelen]

I can't seem to achieve this no matter what I try. When I pour the sauce directly in the pot (in which also includes the ingredient to be drizzled) it says there is too little sauce, but when I pour it onto the ingredient then it says I put it too much. Does anyone know proper way to do it?

Hey
Drizzling and seasoning is a little bit tricky, you have to distribute it evenly between all the ingredients that you want to drizzle / season.

We are still adjusting error tolerance for the recipes and target taste values, the more feedback we get, the better recipes we can make.

Thank you for your reply. Since you are here I have another concern:) Fusilli always jumps out of pot immediately after I put it on the stove.

We are currently working on some Fusilli related bugs. Fixes should be available on Beta Branch and if the changes will be approved, it should be on the main game in few days.
Hopefully it will manage to solve your issue.

I am pouring a 30 ml mixture from a bowl onto four brussel sprouts. The moment I tilt the bowl, the whole mixture pours in. I check the sprouts, only two of them have the mixture and they only have 1 ml of each ingredient. So the problem for me:

1. The amount of mixture an item can get is limited and I always end up with "too little x ingredient" reviews.
2. Liquids can pour in out of player's control (same with soups but you have more margin of error).
3. Bowls don't have vertical indicators, so even if you manage to not pour it all in at once, moving between items is really hard.

Is there something I'm missing with drizzling? I have never once managed to get it right.

Hey muad'dib
Drizzling mixture from the bowl is really tricky and usually I just stack everything together and try to slowly tilt the bowl.
We are planning on improving pouring mechanic in general (from pots, bowls etc), hopefully in future patches we will mange to polish this gameplay element.

Great news! Looking forward to see the upcoming patches. Thanks for your attention.

@Zeriver, are you guys still working on this drizzling problem and any closer to a solution? I saw someone suggesting to use the spicing interface, and that would be nice indeed! Also, recipes should take the drizzling limitations into account, as we cannot drizzle/pour more than a certain amount onto a single item -- way below what the recipe calls for! (i.e. tomato fro the bruschetta).

The way it is now is very frustrating and impossible to use successfully! Many recipes require drizzling, and I'm avoiding all of them...

Thanks for passing this along to the dev team! :)

Drizzling in this game continues to be exceptionally tricky.

I wanted to offer a suggestion for making it easier: introduce a utensil called a "Baster". It could function similarly to a ladle, except in smaller quantities for the purposes of drizzling ~25mL of liquid onto a food product.
