Tamale

Tamale is an uncommon consumable crafted from 2 Crocodile Tail and 2 Leek at a Cooking Fire. It provides a 15-minute buff that increases Maximum Health but does not grant any additional stat bonuses.

Tamale requires ingredients from more dangerous territory, as Crocodile Tail is obtained by hunting crocodiles, which are tougher opponents than most early-game creatures. Leek can be foraged or farmed to supply the vegetable component. While the lack of a stat bonus may seem underwhelming given the effort needed to hunt crocodiles, Tamale is a practical way to use Crocodile Tail when players do not yet have access to the more advanced crocodile-based recipes. The 15-minute health buff makes it a serviceable meal for mid-game exploration.
