WoW Cooking – Cook with Style!
Cooking as a profession became more popular with the WOTLK and BC expansions. Cooking is a secondary profession and therefore it is optional however, it is a very interesting and fun profession which is one of the reasons why many players decide to level it. Click here for more on WoW Cooking
Why cooking?
There is a number of players who want to level up Cooking for fun, to be able to make the best food in game, to do cooking achievements and receive the famous “Chef” title, and of course, because Cooking is a quite profitable profession. As you can see, with cooking you can do all these and much more.
A perfect match
It is said that cooking and fishing are the perfect pair. You can level up cooking without the need for fishing but your cooking levelling will definitely go a lot faster if you have fishing as well, and not to mention the profit from both of these professions combined.
Hail to the Chef
The “Chef” title has also become one of the most wanted titles since it isn’t easy to reach it. If you are going for this title keep in mind that you will have to accomplish a list of different cooking achievements. Many of the listed achievements will be based on the Outland and Northrend cooking daily quests and your knowledge of the recipes from these areas.
Why should I do the daily quests?
During your adventures in the Outlands, cooking dailies were good because you could earn some extra money, discover new recipes and receive additional food. When the WOTLK was released, WoW cooks got new fun options like Dalaran cooking daily quests. If you are on the Alliance side you will have to visit a quest giver Katherine Lee in the Silver Enclave, and if you are on the Horde side you will need to visit Awilo Lon’gomba found in the Sunreaver’s Inn. Each day you will be able to get randomly one of the five different quests: Cheese for Glowergold, Convention at the Legerdemain, Infused Mushroom Meatloaf, Mustard Dogs! and Sewer Stew
These quests will have some gold to offer you as a reward as well as the Small Spice Bag and a Dalaran Cooking Reward. The Small Spice Bag will always surprise you with a Dalaran Cooking Reward extra, more Northern spices and even some recipes. Sometimes you will be able to find some different kinds of spices like Baby Spice. Baby Spices are fun to use since they can alter a player’s size and make him smaller.
With the Dalaran Cooking Rewards you will be able to purchase special kind of recipes for stronger foods. If you manage to collect 100 of these rewards you can purchase a Chef’s hat and finish another achievement -Cooking with Style. It might seem a bit expensive, but still, the Chef’s hat will allow a cook to prepare his food much faster. Dalaran Cooking Rewards are also used to purchase more of Northern spices. The food which you can make with the use of Northern spices is the best food in game and therefore it is worth quite a bit if sold on the Auction House.
Tips for fast dailies
Since you will get a random daily quest each day you should have some things prepared in advance. For most of these quests you will need to have Chilled Meat and for a Mustard Dogs! quest you will be asked to prepare some Rhino Dogs from the Rhino Meat. Farming these meats in advance will save you a lot of time. If you have everything prepared than doing any of these cooking dailies will take just a few moments.
