Overview

Porridge is a Complex Food preferred by Foxes and Humans. Each of your Villagers of these Species that fulfills their need for Porridge receives a bonus to their Resolve. It is often the easiest Complex Food to produce during early-game, as Vegetables brought with embarkation can be used to make Porridge and an early Small Farm and Rain Collector can provide ample ingredients.

OR

Step 2 options:

• A Rain Mill refines either or both of the Wheat or Roots into Flour (★★★).
• A Provisioner, Stamping Mill, or Supplier refine either or both of the Wheat or Roots into Flour (★★).
• A Press refines either or both of the Wheat or Roots into Flour (★).

Second Ingredient: Herbs, Berries, or just more Roots

Options:

• A Root Deposit worked by a Scavengers' Camp produces Roots (★). This can be the same deposit and camp for the first ingredient.
• An Herb Deposit worked by an Herbalists' Camp produces Herbs (★).
• A Dewberry Bush worked by an Herbalists' Camp produces Berries (★).
• Fertile Soil is improved to a Farm Field, which when worked by an Herb Garden produces both Roots (★) and Herbs (★★).

Bare minimum production

If you need Porridge without a lot of investment, look here. The simplest and lowest-level access to Porridge from among the ingredients and Buildings still requires two selected blueprints for production Buildings. Altogether, this setup requires 10 Wood, 3 Parts, 10 Planks, and 4 Fabric for the Camps and Buildings.

1. A Root Deposit worked by a Scavengers' Camp AND
2. A Rain Mill, which is slightly cheaper than a Provisioner AND
3. A Bakery which is cheaper than a Cookhouse

Efficient sustainable production

If you need to sustain Porridge and want to feel efficient at doing so, look here.

1. Farm Fields worked by an Herb Garden producing both Roots and Herbs.
2. The Roots are refined by a Rain Mill into Flour.
3. A Cookhouse or Bakery combines the Flour and Herbs into Porridge. Since both are two-star (★★), you can choose based on which other products you need.
