How to Craft Cooked Cod in Minecraft

Cooked Cod in Minecraft, drawn from the game's own item texture. Restores 5 hunger points.

A Cooked Cod comes out of a Furnace, not out of a crafting grid: 1 Raw Cod in the top slot and fuel below it. You collect 1 Cooked Cod when it finishes. On the food bar that is 5 hunger and 6 saturation.

Cooked Cod Item ID and Give Command

The item ID for Cooked Cod is minecraft:cooked_cod. In commands the namespace may be left off, so cooked_cod works too. Checked against Minecraft Java 26.2.

Give yourself one
/give @p cooked_cod
Give a full stack of 64
/give @p cooked_cod 64
Give it to a named player
/give Steve cooked_cod 1

Cheats have to be on for Cooked Cod to appear this way, and the same command works on Bedrock Edition, where the name is written the same.

Overview

Cooked Cod restores 5 hunger points and 6 saturation. Cooked Cod is produced by smelting in a Furnace rather than by arranging items in a grid.

How far back this one goes cannot be read out of the files: Minecraft 1.13 renamed hundreds of items and every recipe file with them, and the cooked cod was one of them, so the trail stops there.

The materials come together from a few sources: you will be working with raw cod (fish with a fishing rod or kill cod).

Stack Maths

Counted per stack: 64 raw cods, 64 crafts, 64 cooked cods. Craft 64 empties the box exactly.
