Garlic

Garlic
The ingredient Garlic is not found right away when you start playing Chefville.

As you progress through the game you'll get the quest called "Farmer's Market" from the hippy looking girl. Completing the quest will allow you unlock the ability to purchase an expansion. The expansion is to the left of where your restaurant started, and you'll see a couple of stalls (Broccoli and Romaine Lettuce), and a pile of wrapped boxes.

Click the wrapped boxes a few times to unwrap your garlic stall. After unwrapping it, you'll have to get a few neighbors to help you open shop, and then you'll be able to start harvesting garlic, and cooking dishes with a garlic ingredient. Garlic can be harvested fairly quickly, every five minutes.

Garlic is used in a number of dishes including; Garlic Toast, Ranch Dressing, and Steak Florentine

You can also harvest at your neighbors stall for a chance to collect more garlic.

Wild Onion



The Wild Onion, starts out growing naturally in your yard. I haven't seen yet if they'll come back if you dig them all up, but you can buy a new starter plant from the Marketplace.

Onions are used in a number of recipes including; Tomato Sauce, Ranch Dressing, Philly Cheesesteak, Grilled Steak Panini, Wild Onion Bisque, Chilly Gazpacho, Southern Dumplin, and Foccaccia.


Wild Onion Plants
When growing in the wild, new plants will sprout daily. Each new sprout contains up to three onions, and you have to use up one energy to dig up each single onion, as you pick the onions one at a time.

Wild Onions can also be harvested in your neighbors yards, so if you find yourself running low check out your neighbors! Don't forget that you can also eat dishes that your neighbors are serving. Each dish gives you the possibility of a certain ingredient, mouse over the dish to see what you have a chance of getting from that dish.

With onions being in such high demand, you'll probably run out quickly if you don't make sure to leave some plants to grow back. Then you'll wan to purchase some more Wild Onion plants for your yard. They are available in the marketplace, and will cost you 30 hearts per plant.

They are used in making Bruschetta, Veggie Kebab, and Tomato Sauce.


Unripe Tomato Plant
Unripe Plant
After picking the tomato off the plant (or vine), the plant will then become unripe, and if you mouse over the plant, you'll see the timer counting down until the plant is ripe again.

After ripening, you'll see a nice ripe tomato plant, and you can click the plant to receive one tomato, and one XP. It costs you one energy each time you harvest a plant.

You can also harvest your neighbor's tomato plants for a chance at a tomato. So if you find yourself running low, visit your neighbors!
Ripe Plant

Currently, you can also send a tomato to your neighbors as a "free gift". So if you get in a bind, send your neighbors some tomatoes, and you can receive some in return!
