Usage
Crafting ingredient
| Name | Ingredients | Crafting recipe |
|---|---|---|
| Beetroot Soup | Beetroot + Bowl |
|
| Mushroom Stew | Red Mushroom + Brown Mushroom + Bowl |
|
| Rabbit Stew | Cooked Rabbit + Carrot + Baked Potato + Any Mushroom + Bowl |
|
| Suspicious Stew | Red Mushroom + Brown Mushroom + Bowl + Any Flower |
Mooshrooms
Using a bowl on a mooshroom turns the bowl into mushroom stew or suspicious stew. The stew can then be consumed immediately and the process repeated, making this an excellent way to quickly restore depleted hunger and saturation with almost no cost or effort.
Fuel
Bowls can be used as a fuel in furnaces, smelting 0.5 items per bowl in Java Edition, and 1 item per bowl in Bedrock Edition.

Trivia
- in Bedrock Edition, bowls are actually more fuel efficient than sticks. If 6 wood planks are crafted into 8 bowls, 8 items can be smelted; but if those are crafted into 12 sticks, only 6 items can be smelted. This can be useful when the player only has access to Nether wood types, which cannot be used as fuel.
