From [Beer Basted Boar Ribs] to [Giant Clam Scorcho], there is no recipe too obscure or odd to attract notice from the chefs of Azeroth. Food is used in the game to heal players out of combat so that they are able to get back to fighting as quickly as possible.

As you are traveling around the world, you will notice that you often receive pieces of meat which, instead of being sold to merchants, could be used to create food. If you are a player who relies on food, such as a non-healing player or a player who solos, cooking will be very important to you.

You can buy food from merchants, but the food gained through cooking is nearly free and it is actually much more effective. Additionally, even if you don't eat it, cooked meat is still worth more than raw meat when resold. Cooking is also a great "flavor" secondary skill because you can entertain players with the funny and interesting dishes you can create. Hand someone a portion of [Dragonbreath Chili], a [Savory Deviate Delight], or some [Stormchops] and you'll see what we mean.

Additionally, certain cooked foods have a 15-minute, 30-minute, or 60-minute Well Fed buff effect in addition to the immediate health boost all foods have. (Know you're going in to battle and have a few minutes? Eat that [Herb Baked Egg] first and gain 2 Spirit and 2 Stamina for 15 minutes. +2 stamina equates to 20 health points and +2 spirit makes you get health and mana back quicker.) A list of recipes and the buffs they give can be found under Well Fed. In the Burning Crusade, cooking is improved for other classes as there are buffs such as increased agility, spell damage, healing, etc. A "treat" can also be given to a Hunter pet or a Warlock minion.

Suggested classes

All classes benefit from cooking: melee, ranged, Tanks, spell damage and healers alike. With the addition of the new recipes available in Outland and Northrend, there is something for everyone!

Requirements

Creating food requires three components: A recipe, ingredients, and heat.

• Recipes can be purchased from Cooking trainers, who can be found in capital cities as well as some minor cities.
• Your ingredients will be meat from the beasts or fish in Azeroth. Some recipes also require ingredients such as [Refreshing Spring Water], [Mild Spices], or other items which can be obtained from trade goods vendors, but as of Patch 3.1 the vast majority of recipes have been streamlined and no longer require additional ingredients.
• Your heat source must be a Cooking Fire, such as a Campfire, a Stove, a Brazier, a Cauldron, or a Fireplace, but not a Forge.

Advancement

In order to advance your Cooking skill, you must constantly challenge yourself to create increasingly advanced dishes. Every time you create a new food item, you have a chance of earning a Cooking skill point.

The color of the recipe in your cooking window (menu) indicates whether you will gain a skill point in Cooking when you create the item. The color codes are as follows:

• Red = Cannot create yet; you need a higher skill level in Cooking before you can create this recipe.(0%)
• Orange = Will always receive a Cooking skill point when you create that item, except the very highest level skill points.
• Yellow = Likely to receive a Cooking skill point.
• Green = Unlikely to receive a Cooking skill point.
• Gray = No skill increase.

When you gain enough Cooking skill points, you will need to visit a Cooking trainer to advance to the next skill level!

Be aware that the last 5 skill points, and particularly the very last skill point at 449 will be difficult to achieve, as the best recipes available as of 11 Dec 08 go gray at 450. The gigantic feast and the small feast are recommended as the best bet to get the last few skill points, but expect to cook a lot of feasts, unless you are very lucky.

• As of Patch 3.3, Northrend recipes have been changed to offer skill-ups longer. Typical recipes will remain orange all the way up to level 450, making it much easier to cook that fish feast you've been waiting for.

• Skillups from daily Cooking quests increase all 6 specializations.^[2]
• Daily quests still earn new  [Epicurean's Awards] (replaced  [Chef's Awards]).^[3]

Specializations

This section concerns content exclusive to Mists of Pandaria.

There are 6 cooking specializations introduced with Mists of Pandaria.^[4]

• Each specialization can be learned from specific trainers found in the Halfhill Market in Valley of the Four Winds.^[4]

Specializations require 530 cooking skill to learn. There is no level requirement to learn cooking specializations. However level 80 is required to learn Zen Master Cooking, which is needed to reach 530 skill. Level 85 is needed to learn recipes for all of the higher-tier specialization dishes.^[4]

• All 6 specializations can be learned at once.^[4]
• Each specialization has its own skill bar.^[2]
• You will need to level each specialization individually to 600 if you want to learn every recipe in the game.^[2]
• Level 85 is needed to learn recipes for all of the higher-tier specialization dishes.^[4]
• All trainers teach you feasts ("Banquet of the ..." and "Great Banquet of the ...") at 575 particular to their specialization.^[5]
  • Recipes appear to stay orange for a long time, so you will not need to cook a ton of additional dishes. However, the materials required for later dishes increases.^[2]

Specialization stat buffs

Each cooking specialization is associated with a buff stat. All the single-person (non-feast) dishes taught by one specialization will buff their specific stat (or other effect):^[4][2]

• From Bobo Ironpaw <Master of the Still>, [Way of the Brew] - Headaches and grandeur (except for banquets, really mostly no buff drink or food or vanity change)
• From Kol Ironpaw <Master of the Grill>, [Way of the Grill] - Strength
• From Jian Ironpaw <Master of the Oven>, [Way of the Oven] - Stamina
• From Mei Mei Ironpaw <Master of the Pot>, [Way of the Pot] - Intellect
• From Yan Ironpaw <Master of the Steamer>, [Way of the Steamer] - Spirit
• From Anthea Ironpaw <Master of the Wok>, [Way of the Wok] - Agility

The Way of the Brew single-person dishes simply have descriptions like "known to cause massive headaches" and "may induce delusions of grandeur." The benefits of these are unknown.^[4]

Feasts are an exception: Every specialization offers 2 feast dishes, each of which grants precisely the same buff - 275 Useful (class-specific) stat. This means one only needs to train one specialization to be able to cook raid feasts.^[4]

There are no specialized dishes for other buff stats, however there are non-specialized dishes offering Hit and Expertise buffs. Two of these dishes are trained by the Halfhill Market trainers, while [Fish Cake] is trained by Cooking Trainers everywhere.^[4]

Alliance Leveling Guide (to 375)

• Find a cooking trainer and spend the 9 copper to learn the cooking skill. This will most likely be in Goldshire, Dolanaar, Kharanos, or the Exodar.
• Start with making as much [Spice Bread] as you can. It will cost you 30 per 5 bread and this will get you up to skill 40 without ever leaving the trainer.
• Now cook [Roasted Boar Meat] with [Chunk of Boar Meat] from boars in Elwynn Forest and Dun Morogh, [Charred Wolf Meat] with [Stringy Wolf Meat] found on wolves in Elwynn Forest and Dun Morogh, or [Roasted Moongraze Tenderloin] found on Azuremyst Isle, until you reach a skill level of 50. This will take at least 10 pieces of meat.
• It is advisable, since the points gained decrease as your skill level increases, to learn to make [Spiced Wolf Meat] from your trainer at skill level 10, or make [Spice Bread] if you are low on meat from the animals. You can also make [Beer Basted Boar Ribs] after getting the recipe as a quest reward in Dun Morough, or purchased from Kendor Kabonka in the Pig and Whistle Tavern in Stormwind's old town. Another option is getting the [Recipe: Kaldorei Spider Kabob] from a quest in Teldrassil.
• At skill level 50, you can turn your [Clam Meat] and [Refreshing Spring Water] into [Boiled Clams] and [Coyote Meat] into [Coyote Steak], which will take you to skill level 100, given sufficient supplies.
  • An excellent place to level from 50 to 150 is Westfall's Sea Crawler and Shore Crawler. The drops of Small Barnacled Clam is good, and they always contain a [Clam Meat]. They also drop a good supply of [Crawler Meat], and they also drop the occasional [Crawler Claw], all used in cooking recipes to skill 150.
• At skill level 75, find a trainer again and spend 5 silver (or less, with faction discounts) to train Journeyman cooking.
• Be sure also to head to Stormwind and ask a guard where the cooking trainer is there. There is a man in Old Town inside the Pig and Whistle Tavern named Kendor Kabonka. He sells 10-12 recipes up to level 130. Some of the recipes can be recognized as quest rewards from the surrounding zones. This is especially helpful if you are doing the cooking grind at 70. Be sure to pick up [Recipe: Redridge Goulash] and [Recipe: Murloc Fin Soup]
• Head over to Westfall and finish skill up to 90 with [Goretusk Liver Pie].
• For 90-150:
  • While in Westfall, you can farm Clam Meat from Shore Crawlers^{[25, 66]}
    

    
    and cook with [Recipe: Clam Chowder] (acquired from Kriggon Talsone <Fisherman> at the pier south of the Westfall Lighthouse) to reach 150.
  • Or, in Redridge,
    • Go to Redridge and kill the Murlocs for [Murloc Fin Soup] until 100.
    • Go kill spiders and vultures in Redridge for [Redridge Goulash] until 130.
• Go back to the Wetlands and kill crocolisks, Murlocs, and raptors for [Crocolisk Gumbo], [Goblin Deviled Clams], [Curiously Tasty Omelet], and [Murloc Fin Soup] until 190.
• At level 190, head over to Desolace and find the two vendors, Vendor-Tron 1000 ^{[60, 38]}
  

  
  and Super-Seller 680 ^{[40, 79]}
  

  
  . They only spawn approximately once an hour for about 10 minutes in two different places, as they only appear at two stops of a caravan that moves through Desolace.
• Vendor-Tron 1000 sells 5 recipes while Super-Seller 680 sells only one close to your level but 3 others for level 275.
• If you are a fisherman with the appropriate skill, you can get Raw Greater Sagefish from the many Greater Sagefish School in Desolace and cook Sagefish Delight until 225. If not, head over to Tanaris and kill the various wolves/hyenas for [Red Wolf Meat] and the skorpids for [Mystery Meat]. You'll need those to level up to 225 with [Hot Wolf Ribs] and [Carrion Surprise].
• At level 225, you used to need to do the quest "Clamlette Surprise" from Dirge Quikcleave in Gadgetzan in Tanaris to become an artisan in cooking. This quest is no longer required. Just visit your trainer and learn artisan cooking.
  • You can still do this quest to receive the recipe. You need 12 [Giant Egg], 10 [Zesty Clam Meat], and 20 [Alterac Swiss].
  • You can get the Giant Eggs from the various birds in Tanaris.
  • Alterac Swiss can be bought from many locations. The closest is Galgrom in the Caverns of Time in Tanaris, the easiest is buying it with another character at Trias's Cheese shop along the entrance to Stormwind and mailing it to your cooking character.
  • Zesty Clam Meat can be found inside the [Big-mouth Clam]s dropped by the turtles on the eastern coast of Tanaris.
• Head to Felwood at the Talonbranch Glade and find Malygen behind the house. He sells three recipes.
• Stay in Felwood but look around for any bears wandering in the area. Kill them for [Bear Flank] and cook either the [Charred Bear Kabobs] or [Juicy Bear Burger] until they turn green at 285. Note that the bears in Feralas near the Twin Colossals are also a good source of [Bear Flank].
• Go to Cenarion Hold in Silithus and speak to Calandrath the innkeeper for the Desert Recipe chain of quests. When you get to the third quest you'll get the [Recipe: Smoked Desert Dumplings]. Kill Dredge Crushers and Strikers for the [Sandworm Meat]. You'll need about 15. This will get you to 300.
• Once arriving at Outland learn [Recipe: Ravager Dog] from Sid Limbardi at Honor Hold and learn 375 cooking from the chef in the kitchen behind him, farm [Ravager Flesh]x25 from the Ravagers in the South West on the path to Terrokar (hit the Expedition Armory and travel West until you find the Ravagers, follow the path South), you'll need Cooking 325 to proceed. You should be able to sell this food for a modest price on the AH.
• Fly to Telaar in Nagrand and purchase [Recipe: Talbuk Steak] and [Recipe: Roasted Clefthoof] from Uriku (she sells two other fish based recipes which are good do have but not required). The area immediately to the North East from Ring of Trials South to Kil'sorrow Fortress will have all the Clefthoof Meat and Talbuk Venison you'll need, farm both until you have 25-30 total pieces of meat. You'll need cooking 350 to continue.
• Fly to Evergrove in Blade's Edge Mountains and purchase [Recipe: Mok'Nathal Shortribs] and [Recipe: Crunchy Serpent] from Xerintha Ravenoak. Fly to crossroads above Death's Door in South East Blade's Edge Mountains and farm 15-20 each of Raptor Ribs and Serpent Flesh, this should take you to level 375!
