Merge Tasty - Chef & Cooking: Manage Overlapping Orders

When orders overlap in Merge Tasty - Chef & Cooking, batch ingredients they share and reserve board space for the recipes you are working on. This approach focuses your merges on current customer requests instead of filling the board with items for unrelated dishes.

1. Check the active orders for ingredients they have in common.
2. Make those shared ingredients first, then use them for each matching recipe.
3. Keep the remaining board space for ingredients needed to finish those orders.
4. Once an order is complete, reassess the remaining requests before preparing more items.

If the orders do not share ingredients, work from their listed requirements rather than assuming one recipe will help with another. The supplied information does not establish which orders are more valuable or which ingredients take longer to produce, so prioritize based on the recipes you are completing and the space available.
