Only reveal a recipe after the player has uncovered all ingredients.

Since most recipes are only revealed after you've encountered the resources needed, I'd suggest changing them a little bit.  Some of them are going to be either outright impossible or take a very long time to become available for the player to make.  However they're revealed right away as the player has found one of those ingredients.  This would be a good way to avoid confusing or overwhelming newer players.  For example, locating pincha peppernut immediately reveals all recipes that use it.  Even pepper bread or spicy tofu on maps that lack sleet wheat or nosh beans.

EDIT: Oh, and one more thing.  Let experienced players choose to start with all recipes revealed so we can set things up ahead of time how we want, without having to remember to go back and set them after we've found everything every single time.

I think it would be far better if each recipe was to be searched on a special research building.

 

With this, on one hand, we'll have researches for the buildings.

And on the other hand, researches for recipes.

 

For example, to be able to make stell, will have to find a part of the recipe by searching iron uses. Wich will give hints that it could do something with a corbanated material, and some extra component.

Recipies should be bound to cooking skill. Every skill reveal few recipies so so first would be food until +3 and second will be rest.

It was like this before and the forum was filled with "how do i make steel" questions so they changed it. Some recipies are not obvious to what ingredients you need so it`s good to have them visible once you got one ingredient.

With the new food system there isn`t that many food items per station anyway. I think new players prefer to know what they can do with the food even if it`s unreachable for them for a while. Only scenario where i wouldn`t show a recipie is when an ingredient is not available on the asteroid type.

As Sasza said, it was that way a while ago. And the player base was going haywire. It pointed out to be a really bad idea, and so they reverted it again.

Makes sense, nothing is as complicated as the steel recipe and you always need to do it.  On the other hand, food recipes are mostly optional and only need a few items.  Either only hiding recipes that include things that you can't get on the asteroid (unless you get them from space) or limiting this to just some of the food recipes would probably be for the best.
