Recipes Overview [1.13 and Up]

Vanilla Recipes

JEI has built-in recipes for nearly everything related to crafting. This includes:

• Anvil recipes (Applying enchanted books)
• Potion brewing
• All forms of smelting (campfire, furnace, smoker, and blast furnace)
• Fuel for furnaces
• Regular crafting table recipes
• Stonecutter recipes

If the recipe you are adding is listed above, it is implemented in JEI as the Vanilla Plugin (using the same API as any other mod plugin). Otherwise, if your recipe is NOT listed above, it is a modded recipe.

Modded Recipes

At this point, if you haven't already, you'll want to create a plugin. Afterwards, you'll need to:

1. (REQUIRED) Create a recipe category. Examples of categories already in Vanilla include "crafting", "cooking", etc. If you're using another mod's recipe category, this is not required.
2. (PRACTICALLY REQUIRED) Register your recipes with the recipe category. This way, JEI knows that your mod's recipes are part of the category you're creating.
3. (OPTIONAL) Register a catalysts or catalysts for the recipe category. This way, JEI knows what to display as the block/item used for the crafting category (ie. Crafting tables for crafting, furnace for cooking, etc.).
4. (OPTIONAL) Register a transfer handler for the recipe category. This way, the + button in JEI will transfer items properly.
