Pumpkin Potage is a classic Summer dish that you can make in Story of Seasons: Friends of Mineral Town.

Where To Learn the Recipe

Cooking inspiration is something that happens automatically as you make dishes with different ingredients. Once you’ve cooked with an ingredient a certain number of times, you can unlock a new recipe that uses the same item!

The farmer gets inspired to cook Pumpkin Potage while in the kitchen.

To learn the recipe for Pumpkin Potage, you need to cook with the following ingredients:

Ingredients	Number of dishes you need to cook
Milk	10 dishes
Pumpkin	3 dishes

The quality of the ingredients you use can reduce the number of times you need to cook with that item. You can check the quality by looking at how many stars the ingredient has.

Interface of the fridge with the ingredient quality indicated.

For each additional star that an ingredient has, the number of times you need to cook with it decreases by a factor of 1.

If a recipe states that you have to cook with Pumpkins 10 times to unlock it, you can make any dish with 1-star Pumpkins 20 times. But if you have 2-star Pumpkins, you only need to cook with them 10 times. Likewise, 5-star Pumpkins will unlock the recipe after only 4 uses.

Requirements

The farmer harvests Pumpkins from a field in the Summer.

Equipment Needed

The equipment needed to make Pumpkin Potage can be bought from Jeff at the General Store.

The downside is that Jeff sells his kitchen equipment one by one, in 10-day intervals after you buy the first of Gotts’ house remodeling upgrades.

This means that you can only access the next piece of equipment 10 days after the previous one becomes available for purchase.

How To Sell Pumpkin Potage

Any dishes made in your kitchen can’t be shipped through Zack and the Shipping Bin. However, you can start selling food to Huang once you become friends with him at 4 friendship notes.

To sell a dish to Huang, stand in front of his counter while holding the item. Don’t interact directly with his sprite, as it will register as a gift instead.

The farmer stands in front of Huang’s counter while holding a bowl of Pumpkin Potage.

Huang will then offer you a price, which you can actually reject for a chance at getting him to bid higher.

The price range for Pumpkin Potage is anywhere between 480 G and 570 G.

If Huang offers you 520 G for the item, for example, you can turn him down and try again to get a higher price.

Huang offers to buy Pumpkin Potage from the farmer.

Keep in mind that his bids will never go lower or higher than this defined range, so 570 G is the maximum price you can get for selling Pumpkin Potage.
