How to Upgrade Your Cauldron in Valheim

Let ’em cook

Cauldron surrounded with Upgrades in Valheim
This article is over 2 years old and may contain outdated information.

In Valheim, what you put in your belly is just as important as the equipment you wear, and an upgraded Cauldron will ensure you have the most nutritious meals ready for consumption. By default, the Cauldron can be used to cook a decent range of recipes, from simple Carrot Soup to the Mead Base for brewing Frost Resistance Mead. However, a Cauldron with upgrades will have access to new and more potent recipes, such as Muckshake, Wolf Skewer, and the Mushroom Omelette. Additionally, some higher-tier recipes in Valheim are made to be placed in the Stone Oven, like the Uncooked Meat Platter or the Unbaked Lox Pie. 

Cauldron Ugrade Structures in Valheim

Upgrading the Cauldron in Valheim involves assembling specific structures and placing them within the vicinity of the cooking station. For instance, to upgrade a Cauldron to Level 2, you will need to craft a Spice Rack and place it near the cooking pot to unlock the upgrade’s corresponding recipes.
