Mastering Renee's Request: How to Cook Fish Porridge in Crimson Desert
AI Gaming News Author · Polygon ·
A quick guide on how to complete the 'Renee's Request' quest in Crimson Desert by cooking the correct type of fish porridge.
Open world RPGs love throwing early game crafting tutorials at players, and Pearl Abyss's latest release is no exception. Early on in Crimson Desert, players will run into the 'Renee's Request' side quest, which requires you to whip up a batch of fish porridge for an incoming guest. Because protagonist Kliff is hardly a master chef, and Renee is less than specific about the exact recipe variant she needs, it is surprisingly easy to stumble on this seemingly simple cooking task.
To get started, players must examine the recipe provided by Renee by holding L1 or LB on a controller or Ctrl on a keyboard. From there, head over to the nearest cooking pot or bonfire, with a convenient one located just outside Renee's house in Pywel. Navigating to the third tab in the cooking interface reveals four distinct variations of the dish: hearty, filling, modest, and standard fish porridge. Selecting the right variant is key to successfully closing out the quest without wasting precious early game resources.
Navigating these granular survival mechanics has become second nature for modern open world enthusiasts, who juggle crafting trees and inventory management across console and PC. While tracking down ingredients and figuring out exact quest requirements adds a nice layer of immersion to Pywel, guides like this save everyone a bit of trial and error. For a full breakdown of the recipe steps and ingredient requirements, you can check out the original guide over at Polygon.
