Cook

Doubtless developed by a forgotten wizard with culinary interests, the cook spell instantly transforms the most common and ordinary ingredients into a perfectly prepared feast of the finest and most filling sort. Meals of even dubious freshness and flavor are seasoned to mouth - watering perfection and the exact degree of doneness desired; stale or unappealing vegetables are roasted or broiled to the most demanding tastes, hi the process of cooking, all - natural harmful agents are removed.

The spell is completely useless against living creatures - or even vegetables still in the ground - so the caster cannot render the head of a live goblin well - done, or broil a shambling mound chasing him.

Up to two pounds of meat and a suitable complement of vegetables, grains, or fruits - a hearty meal for two people - can be prepared per caster level. The caster must specify as he casts the spell how the food is to be cooked and seasoned. The material components are a pinch of tinder and a small dab of sulphur.
