How to Cook Feasts in Valheim

Valheim: The Bog Witch introduces a brand-new mechanic sure to satiate you and all of your wandering pals. The Feast mechanic allows you to cook large meals that can be shared among several people, granting significant buffs and lasting longer than typical meals. Grab your friends and treat them to a hearty supper as we explain how to cook Feasts in Valheim.

Where to Get a Serving Tray in Valheim

Before you can impress your friends with your culinary expertise, you’ll need a Serving Tray to help carry your Feasts. After all, you can’t expect to hold a boiling cauldron of stew with your bare hands.

The Serving Tray can be purchased for 140 Gold from the newest NPC Trader, the Bog Witch.

Like other Traders in Valheim, the Bog Witch’s exact location is randomly chosen in your world. However, she is always found within Swamp biomes. If you’re unable to find her in your world, you can use a third-party website like Valheim Traders Finder and upload your world.db file to get a hint about her general location.
