Mod Recipe Book
Adds a customizable, progression-based, vanilla-friendly recipe book for modded Minecraft.
Quick answer
Which Mod Recipe Book release should I use?
Mod Recipe Book 2.3.0 for Fabric 1.21.1 targets 1.21.1 with Fabric. The project page does not say whether this file belongs on the client, dedicated server, or both. 1 required mod needs a matching file.
Where it goes
Is Mod Recipe Book required on the client, server, or both?
The project page does not say whether this file belongs on the client, dedicated server, or both.
The source does not explicitly classify this release as client-only or server-only.
What else does Mod Recipe Book 2.3.0 for Fabric 1.21.1 need?
2.3.0 for Fabric 1.21.1. Change the file and its required mods may change too.
Install Just Enough Items (JEI), Architectury API, Architectury API, Just Enough Items (JEI) and 2 more first, but 1 required mod has no matching file for this setup. Do not mix loader builds to force a match. 5 come through another mod in the chain.
5 extra mods were pulled in by other dependencies. Indented rows show who needs each one. We only count dependency files that match this setup. A file for another loader does not fill the gap.

About this project
What does Mod Recipe Book add?
A progression-based recipe book with items from mods. Discover items, unlock recipes, and learn mods as you play. Every recipe opens in a detailed layout that shows exactly how it is made, including recipes that go beyond crafting and smelting.
Recipe layouts come from JEI.
Features
Learn mods by playing
- Recipes unlock as you explore. Pick up the ingredients and the recipe appears in the book. Finding an item also shows you how to craft it.
- Find the station first. A recipe unlocks once you also have what it is made on: a crafting table, a furnace, or a crafting station added by a mod.
- Your rules. Unlock recipes after one ingredient or after all of them, with or without the crafting method.
Categories your way
- Auto categories. Every recipe from every mod is sorted into six clear tabs: Blocks, Functional Blocks, Equipment & Utilities, Food & Drinks, Ingredients, and Redstone.
- Custom categories. Your own tabs, built from any mix of mods.
- Hybrid categories. Ready-made tabs and your own tabs together.
A recipe book that does much more
- Replaces the vanilla book. Works in the inventory, crafting table, and furnaces, and adds a recipe book to the brewing stand.
- Any recipe type. Shows recipes from any mod, not just crafting and smelting, each in its own detailed layout.
- Potions and fluids. Potion recipes are included. Fluid recipes appear in recipe layouts.
- Bookmarks. Keep the items you need close at hand.
Quick to use
- Left click a recipe to place it in the grid, Shift + left click to place as many as possible.
- Right click an item to see a detailed layout with all of its recipes.
- Middle click an item to add it to bookmarks.
