I've found at least 17 meals missing from potential Family Recipes.
Royalty & Legacy:
- Bolinhos De Bacalhau
- Crab Linguine
- Egusi Soup
- Kontomire Soup
- Palm Nut Soup
- Panna Cotta
- Pastel De Nata
- Puff Puff
Adventure Awaits:
- Fairy Bread
- Jellyfish Salad
Life & Death: Boiling Death Frog Hot Pot
Nature's Calling Event: Foraged Feast
Nov 2025 update: Jollof Rice and Drumsticks
Dec 2024 update: Mucenici
Not sure which pack / update these came from:
- Salt-Baked Fish
- Seaweed Ramen
The above can all be made with Cooking Skill.
I would also love to be able to use Baking Skill and Gourmet Cooking meals, but haven't included those in this list. I also haven't tested every recipe sims can learn from vendors etc. [removed for clarity]
It would be fantastic if when future recipes are added to the game, they were also added to the Businesses & Hobbies family recipes.
Edit: Moved already reported to "Existing bug reports" below. None of these are currently included in the Compiled list of reported issues threads for Snowy Escape or Businesses & Hobbies.
This report documents the systemic issue where newer Cooking Skill meals have not been added to Family Recipes.
The foods aren't tagged with packs or updates in-game, so I can't reliably split them all into separate pack reports. I categorised them where I could.
