Almost none of this exists on 1.20.1

The two builds are barely the same mod. On 1.21.1 the recipe list runs across five categories; on 1.20.1 four of those five are completely empty:

Ritual Recipe — 11 on 1.21.1, 0 on 1.20.1
Shrinking Recipe — 7 on 1.21.1, 0 on 1.20.1
Smithing Transform — 4 on 1.21.1, 0 on 1.20.1
Alchemist Cauldron Brew — 2 on 1.21.1, 0 on 1.20.1
Crafting — 13 against 11

So a 1.20.1 world has the crafting recipes and nothing else. Every ritual, every shrinking recipe and every smithing upgrade described anywhere for this mod requires the 1.21.1 build.

What that leaves on the older line

Eleven crafting recipes is the whole of the mod on 1.20.1. If you are on that version and following a guide that mentions rituals or the cauldron, the missing content is not a broken install — it genuinely is not there.

Planning on 1.21.1

With all five categories live, the sensible order is crafting first for the basic items, then the rituals that need them, with smithing upgrades last since they act on gear the earlier steps produce.
