Bitter Ground Level 2 — Complete Answer Guide
This is the full solution for Word Kitchen level 2 of the Bitter Ground pack, part of the Extra Recipes world. The recipe hands you 11 letter tiles — DIDGPUGNNPD — and the key word to plate up is PUDDING. In total there are 10 required answers on this board, which puts it above the game-wide average of 8.2 answers per level.
The tile set breaks down into 2 vowels (I, U) and 9 consonants. Answers run from 3 to 7 letters, so clear the shorter ones first — each one you place confirms letters for the longer entries. This particular level has no bonus words, so the required list below is everything the board accepts.
The key word PUDDING is 7 letters long, matching the 11-tile set exactly — that is what makes it the anchor, and why it is worth solving before anything else on the board. Bitter Ground sits in the Extra Recipes world alongside its sibling recipe packs, and every level in it follows the same shape: one full-length key word plus the shorter words hiding inside the same letters.
Bitter Ground holds 18 levels in total. You can step to level 1 or level 3, browse the whole Bitter Ground pack, open the Extra Recipes world, or head back to the Word Kitchen hub for all 1,614 levels.

3 Tips for Word Kitchen Level 2
Plate the key word first
Every board is built around one key word, and here it is PUDDING. It uses the most tiles of anything on the board, so finding it strips the awkward letters out of the 11-tile set and leaves the remaining answers far easier to see.
The tiles are DIDGPUGNNPD
All 10 required answers come from these 11 tiles alone. Count them before you swipe — the tile set caps what is possible far more tightly than the recipe theme does.
Where this board sits
Level 2 sits in the Bitter Ground pack, part of the Extra Recipes world. Difficulty climbs gradually inside a pack, so a neighbouring board is the most useful hint when this one stalls.

How to Solve Word Kitchen Level 2
Three steps that work on every Word Kitchen board, applied to this one.
Read the tile pool first
Level 2 hands you 11 tiles — DIDGPUGNNPD — and nothing on the board can use a letter that is not in that set. Counting the tiles before you swipe rules out most of what comes to mind first, which is faster than guessing and being rejected.
Place the key word
Every board is built around one long key word, here PUDDING. It consumes the most tiles of anything on the level, so finding it strips the awkward letters out of the pool and leaves the remaining answers far easier to see. Work outwards from it rather than starting with the short words.
Fill the remaining slots, then sweep for bonuses
That leaves 9 required answers to place. This level carries no bonus words, so once the required set is in, the board is finished and the next level in the pack opens.
