Why not give kitchen it's own mini chemistry system.
A good way to do it would be spices.
herbs & Spices would be things grown by botany, extracted into spices (probably just reagents in a special container), and when added to food make it better or worse.
Maybe specific recipes would need spices to be made, like a specific style of cheeseburger. You would also need exact measurements otherwise you ruin the food.
Salt would actually have a use, since you could marginally improve the "taste" of bad food by adding salt to raise quality a tiny bit.
