The decision at the heart of it
A recipe needs the right ingredients at the right stages. Decide what to plate now and what deserves your only cooling space.
A good ingredient can become a bad decision one beat later.
Draft one ingredient from your hand, pass the rest, and bring your pick into a kitchen with three ovens and one cooling shelf. Ingredients move from Fresh to Tender to Golden to Burn as the kitchen heats. The shelf holds an ingredient at its current stage, but has room for only one.
After each pick, choose whether to plate a recipe, cool an ingredient, or wait. Recipes ask for precise pairs of ingredients at precise stages. Repeating a reliable dish earns its base value; completing a recipe for the first time adds a bonus.
Eighteen drafts give every kitchen the same number of opportunities. Read the passing cards, replace an oven ingredient when necessary, and decide which dish deserves your next action before the heat advances.
How a game unfolds
- Choose an ingredient from your hand and pass the remaining cards.
- Add it to your kitchen, replacing an oven ingredient if necessary.
- Plate a matching recipe, cool an ingredient, or wait before the ovens heat again.
