How to Install Grannies Cookbook Mod in The Sims 4

The Grannies Cookbook mod is a fantastic addition to The Sims 4 game, allowing your Sims to explore new recipes and enhance their cooking skills. In this guide, we will walk you through the step-by-step process of installing the mod and making the most out of its features.

The first step to installing the Grannies Cookbook mod is to visit the mod's webpage and locate the latest .package file. This file contains all the necessary information for the mod to work in your game. Once you have found the file, download it onto your computer.

Now, open your Mods folder in The Sims 4 game files. This folder is usually located in your Documents folder under Electronic Arts > The Sims 4 > Mods. If you don't have a Mods folder, you can create one.

Move the downloaded .package file into the Mods folder. Make sure to place it directly in the Mods folder and not in any subfolders. The game will automatically recognize the mod and make it available for use.

Once you have successfully installed the main mod, you can enhance your cooking experience even further by downloading the Grannies Recipe Tin. This expansion provides a collection of recipes organized by meal category, making it easier for your Sims to find and try new dishes.

To obtain the Grannies Recipe Tin, visit the mod's webpage or a trusted modding website. Look for the download link for the Grannies Recipe Tin and click on it. This will download a .zip folder onto your computer.

After the download is complete, locate the .zip folder and extract its contents. You will find several recipes.zip files. Extract these files into the same folder as the original .package file you downloaded in Section 1. This will ensure that the recipes are properly integrated into the game.

To further enhance your experience with the Grannies Cookbook mod, you can download two additional files that add a cookbook stand and a recipe tin to the mod in-game. These files will provide a more immersive cooking experience for your Sims.

Visit the mod's webpage or a trusted modding website to find the download links for the cookbook stand and recipe tin files. Once you have downloaded the files, open your Mods folder and move the files into it. Again, make sure to place them directly in the Mods folder and not in any subfolders.

Before launching The Sims 4 game, make sure to enable Custom Content and Mods in your game settings. To do this, open the game launcher and go to the "Game Options" tab. Check the box next to "Enable Custom Content and Mods" and then click on "Apply Changes." This will ensure that the game recognizes and allows the use of the additional files.

Now that you have successfully installed the Grannies Cookbook mod and added the additional files, it's time to access the mod in the game. Launch The Sims 4 and enter Build Mode.

In Build Mode, navigate to the "Small Appliances" section of the kitchen. Look for the Grannies Cookbook mod and place it on any surface of your choice. You can place it on a countertop, dining table, or any other suitable surface.

With the Grannies Cookbook mod placed in your Sim's home, it's time to explore its features in Live Mode. Choose one of your Sims and enter Live Mode with them.

Once in Live Mode, interact with the placed mod by clicking on it. A pie menu will appear, showing various options and recipes. Select a recipe from the menu to begin cooking.

The Grannies Cookbook mod offers a wide range of recipes that cater to different dietary preferences. If your Sim prefers plant-based meals, vegetarian options are available. For Sims with lactose intolerance, there are lactose-free options to ensure they can still cook delicious dishes.

Enjoy experimenting with different recipes and expanding your Sim's culinary skills. The Grannies Cookbook mod adds a new level of excitement and diversity to cooking in The Sims 4.
