Smoke Puff in Valheim: Stats, Where to Find It, and Its Five Recipes
A raw Smoke Puff restores 15 health and 15 stamina for 900 seconds — 15 minutes — healing 1 hp per tick. It's the wiki's own description that sets expectations: "Hopefully it tastes better after cooking." That line, paired with an even 15/15 split the source itself calls "balanced," makes Smoke Puff read as a filler food rather than a specialist one — but its real value in Ashlands is as a crafting and taming ingredient, feeding five different recipes and one specific creature. This guide covers the full stat block, where the item actually spawns, and what it's used for once you've picked one up.
Smoke Puff at a Glance
The wiki's infobox lists a complete stat block for the raw item:
| Stat | Value |
|---|---|
| Type | Food |
| Health | +15 |
| Stamina | +15 |
| Duration | 900 seconds (15 minutes) |
| Healing | 1 hp per tick |
| Weight | 0.1 |
| Stack size | 50 |
| Teleportable | Yes |
| Internal ID | MushroomSmokePuff |
| Usage | Crafting, Eating, Taming |
In-game item description, quoted directly from the source: "Hopefully it tastes better after cooking." The source's own intro text calls Smoke Puff a "raw balanced Ashlands-tier food," and the numbers back that reading: 15 health to 15 stamina is a 15:15 = 1:1 ratio, evenly split rather than leaning toward tanking or sprinting. Converted to a planning unit, the 900-second duration works out to 900 ÷ 60 = 15 minutes per Smoke Puff eaten raw.
The internal ID, MushroomSmokePuff, ties the item to the game's mushroom object family even though the infobox's type field lists it plainly as Food. The description's hint about cooking implies a cooked variant may exist, but the facts here only cover the raw item — a cooked Smoke Puff's stats, if one exists, are undocumented in this source and shouldn't be assumed to match, or beat, the raw numbers above.
Where to Find Smoke Puffs
Smoke Puff is exclusive to one biome. Quoted directly: "Smoke puffs can be found scattered throughout the Ashlands biome, including on or around rocks or Ashlands ruins. They respawn every 4 hours." That gives a concrete farming loop: sweep a cluster of Ashlands rocks or ruins, clear what's there, and the same spot refreshes on a 4-hour timer rather than needing a fresh area every trip.
The infobox's own source field confirms the same thing more tersely — "Found in the Ashlands biome" — so there's no earlier-biome shortcut to this item; it's an Ashlands-only pickup. At 0.1 weight and a 50-item stack, a full stack tops out at 0.1 × 50 = 5.0 weight units, so hauling a heavy haul back from a ruins sweep isn't a carry-capacity problem the way heavier Ashlands materials can be.
Five Recipes That Need It
The wiki's Usage section lists Smoke Puff as a crafting ingredient in five separate items:
- Fiery Svinstew
- Marinated Greens
- Mead base: Lingering Health
- Smoke Bomb
- Sparkling Shroomshake
That's a wide spread — two cooked foods, a mead base, a utility throwable, and a drink — which is consistent with the infobox's own usage field reading "Crafting, Eating, Taming" rather than crafting alone. The source lists these five as the items that call for Smoke Puff, but it does not give the quantity of Smoke Puff each recipe needs, nor the other ingredients or station required for any of them — those figures are undocumented here and belong to each recipe's own page, not this one. Treat this list as "what it's used for," not a shopping list for any single recipe.
Taming the Asksvin
Beyond crafting, the infobox's usage field also lists Taming, and the wiki's Taming section names exactly one creature it applies to: the Asksvin. The source doesn't expand beyond naming the creature — it gives no taming food-consumption rate, no taming duration, and no distance or line-of-sight requirement specific to Smoke Puff as a tame food. All of that is undocumented in this source; what's confirmed is only that Smoke Puff is a valid tame food for Asksvin, not the mechanics of the tame itself.
Practical tips
- 15 health, 15 stamina, 900 seconds (15 min) — an even 15:15 = 1:1 split, and 900 ÷ 60 = 15 minutes of duration.
- Healing is 1 hp per tick, though the source doesn't give tick length, so total healing across the full duration can't be computed from this data alone.
- Ashlands only — on or around rocks and ruins, respawning every 4 hours.
- A full 50-stack weighs 0.1 × 50 = 5.0 — light to carry back from a farming sweep.
- Five recipes use it: Fiery Svinstew, Marinated Greens, Mead base: Lingering Health, Smoke Bomb, and Sparkling Shroomshake — quantities per recipe are undocumented here.
- It's a valid tame food for the Asksvin, but taming rate and duration for Smoke Puff specifically aren't covered by this source.
Running your own Valheim server
An Ashlands ingredient run like this assumes a base close enough to the biome to make repeat rock-and-ruins sweeps practical, plus the cooking and mead stations that turn a stack of raw Smoke Puffs into Fiery Svinstew, Marinated Greens, or a Mead base batch. A gamever Valheim server keeps that base, its stations, and your stockpiled Ashlands materials live for up to 10 players, so a farming trip doesn't depend on one person's PC staying online overnight. One-click backups protect the stockpile you've already gathered, and automatic updates keep the whole group synced to the same patch.
Conclusion
Smoke Puff is an Ashlands-only raw food with an even 15 health / 15 stamina split (a 15:15 = 1:1 ratio) lasting 900 seconds (15 minutes, from 900 ÷ 60), healing 1 hp per tick. It spawns scattered on rocks and ruins across the Ashlands biome and respawns every 4 hours, and a full 50-item stack weighs just 5.0 (0.1 × 50). Its bigger role is as an ingredient: it feeds five recipes — Fiery Svinstew, Marinated Greens, Mead base: Lingering Health, Smoke Bomb, and Sparkling Shroomshake — and it's also a valid tame food for the Asksvin, though the exact quantities each recipe needs, tick length behind its healing rate, and Asksvin taming specifics are all undocumented in this source and worth checking on each item's own page before planning around them.
