Posted v2.02 of the mod today, minor tweaks and fixes.

In the latest URW 3.87 there's now a hardcoded "ember-roasted turnip" recipe, which mods can't update or remove. Of course NjerpCooking mod always  included its own version of this, so I did experiment with using the base game one and getting rid of the one we always had. But sadly, the base game one felt too inconvenient, as you need to burn fires for many hours to get some decent glowing embers and even these go away fast. I dont' feel that's very realistic, I myself successfully cooked root veggies in the embers of an ordinary small campfire in real life before, not to mention that you could dig a small pit for the veggies, cover with earth, and start a campfire on top to slowcook them down there.

Our vision in the mod is that roasting the turnip should be simple and convenient (otherwise why would a player not just eat them one by one, in the raw). So the current version has the original mod's "Roast Turnip" recipe included just under the base game one. You can use both, but the mod's one is recommended since all it requires is a fire and it cooks more turnips at once. It's a little confusing, having two "roast turnip" recipes under Vegetables. I hope future game versions might improve on this by making the base game ember-roasted turnip recipe a normal one, not hardcoded.

And now just for fun, a couple of mod-theme "postcards from the East":
