Cooking is a valuable mechanic that allows you to prepare dishes that provide various buffs and healing effects after battles. Each character has a different proficiency with various recipes, and their cooking level increases with successful attempts. Recipes are found throughout the world, often by talking to specific NPCs or opening treasure chests. To cook, select the 'Cooking' option from the main menu after a battle. Experiment with different characters and recipes to find the most effective combinations for your party. Some dishes can restore HP/TP, boost stats, or even prevent status ailments. Mastering cooking can significantly reduce your reliance on consumable items and provide a consistent source of buffs.
