Sorry if the game was that much confusing to you!! I should had invested some time in making a tutorial and explaining the game!! :C
Those dots you see on the oven screen aren't some ingredients mixing together. They are a minigame (and right now is the only one) where you should avoid that the dots (They have no meaning. They're just dots) touch each other for X seconds (10 is for recipes with 1 ingredient, it increases by 5 seconds for any more ingredients. Yeah the values is way to big XD), otherwise (unless you have activated a cheat) you lose the minigame and you have to restart to make the tea from scratch.
About the visuals for the ingredients, like many things, i was planning to do that but i didn't managed to do it sadly :/
I'm very happy to hear that you find my game unique and that you like those descriptions!! Thanks for playing my game!!
