Tier 1

Analyze

This iron griddle is a cooking utensil and has the following abilities based on its current Tier of 1:

 - 1 primary ingredient
 - 2 "smoke style" settings (TWIST)
  (oak | hickory)
 - 2 "cooking style" settings (TURN)
  (fry | grill)
* The "creature shank" unlock is inactive.
* The "creature organ" unlock is inactive.

Primary Ingredients:
 - Raw fish
 - Foraged fruits* and vegetables*
 - Creature shanks (by unlock)
 - Creature organs (by unlock)

Secondary Ingredients:
 - Foraged items: Fruit, Vegetable, Berry, Leaf, Nut, Seed, Bark (cinnamon) - these must be edible in order to be added as an ingredient.
 - Finishing Touch items

Off-the-shelf iron griddles can cook raw fish and most vegetable and fruit forageables*.  With 2 or more ingredients, only one can be primary.  Raw fish and meats are considered primary ingredients, and there can only be one primary ingredient in a dish at a time.  Some forageables are considered both primary and secondary, and their classification is designated when the ingredient is added to the griddle.  If you add a banana before adding a red snapper fillet, then the banana is the primary ingredient and you will not be able to add the fish.  If you add the fish first, then that becomes the primary ingredient, and the banana can be added as a secondary/tertiary ingredient.  Secondary ingredients will have more influence over the taste messaging in most cases.

* Some foragables are intentionally ineligible, and in some cases, items that seem to be logical edibles are not.  For instance, mushrooms (fungus) and herbs (healing) are not valid cooking items.  In addition, some forageables cannot be primary items.

You can't cook while holding the iron griddle, but you canconveniently PLACE it at your feet.  Cooking utensils placed on the ground are not safe from others' hands.

You direct a burning stream of fire and heat toward an iron griddle, steadying the surge until the griddle's metal heats up to an extremely bright orange-red. The griddle's temperature continues to intensify and glows a deep crimson as a piquant array of fragrances drifts upward from the utensil's surface.
