Cooking Across Time: Universal Guidelines
🛡️ Safety First
- Always check ingredient temporal stability before use
- Never mix quantum-resonant spices with traditional seasonings
- Ensure proper ventilation when working with void-salt
- Keep temporal extraction devices away from heat sources
🔄 Substitution Guidelines
- Most cosmic ingredients have terrestrial equivalents listed
- When in doubt, substitute with the highest quality available
- Extinct ingredients cannot be truly replicated—embrace the approximation
- Molecular equipment can usually be replaced with careful technique
