latest Genshin Impact the leak gave players a first look at the special dishes that the three new 5.3 characters can prepare. While cooking has no use in the Spiral Abyss, Genshin Impact players have always found it useful when exploring an open world or quickly traversing a domain. Cooking the right food can improve a team's CRIT Rate or ATK, increase shield power, or even restore Stamina. Most importantly, some foods can revive fallen party members like few others Genshin Impact characters have this skill baked into their ability set.
While there are many food recipes for players to collect in Teyvat, almost every character offers a special dish Genshin Impact. These tend to be a unique version of an existing recipe and stat-wise provide extra bonuses or boosts not present in the base dish. Notably, not all special foods are created equal, as their relative strength is tied to the quality of the original recipe. To this day, there is only one 4-star specialty – Eula's Stormcrest Pie.

Mavuika, Citlali and Lan Yan bring their special dishes to the table in 5.3 and a recent leak obtained via HomDGCat Genshin Impact players an overview of new recipes for food. Mavuika and Citlali food are 3 stars while Lan Yan food is 2 stars. Rather appropriately, Mavuika in Genshin Impact can whip up food that increases CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG by 20%, not unlike Diluc's specialty. On the other hand, Citlali food can revive and significantly heal a fallen character.
Genshin Impact: Specialty Foods in version 5.3
Hymn of the Gathered Flame
- A specialty of Mavuika. Various seafood, perfectly grilled, harmonize into an excellent symphony of flavors. It resembles an eternal, sublime hymn that rings in your ears, with unquenchable flames kindled in tandem. The captivating, beautiful melody carries an inspiring power. Is this perhaps also part of the Pyro Archon's immense power?
- 4 Grain
- 2 potatoes
- 2 Onions
- 2 Fish
The Secret Art
- Citlali's specialty. The fresh, tender vegetables are surprisingly crunchy, while the grilled shrimp are firm with a hint of sweetness. The perfectly crafted shape is easy to pick up with just one hand… If a gripping novel was at hand, paired with such a delicacy, you could easily lose yourself in it for a whole day and night. Is this a unique secret art of Grandmother Itztli's extensive knowledge?
- 3 Grain
- 2 Shrimp meat
- 2 Cheese
- 1 onion
Flowers cut with jade
- A specialty of Lan Yan. A young girl will bow her head before you, concentrating with great care on weaving something… Before long, a delicate rattan bowl with beautiful silver swallows and fragrant pastries will appear in your hands. The girl's sincere, innocent smile seems almost like a spell beckoning you to take a bite, and as you do, the flavors linger pleasantly on your palate.
- 1 Qingxin
- 1 Flour
- 1 sugar
Judging by the ingredients used, it could be argued that Mavuik's dish is the only one that is difficult to make, as fish is not as readily available from vendors as shrimp. Prawns can be bought in bulk from most ingredient vendors in the big city, while fish tend to have a limit of 10. While players can always go fishing Genshin Impactmost prefer to prepare meals that use raw meat or poultry. On the other hand, given the availability of shrimp, cheese, and onions, players should be able to cook Citlali's Secret Art easily.
Not much is known about Lan Yan Genshin Impactbut her design, ability set, and now signature dish all point to the swallow being the main inspiration behind the character. As the first Anemo Shield support in the game, Lan Yan has the potential to carve out a unique role in the meta – though probably not until she reaches her sixth Constellation. In order to craft the new foods added in 5.3, players will need to pull a character from their event banner and then obtain a recipe for the basic version of the food.
