WoW Cooking Guide: It’s time to break out the apron!

Cooking in World of Warcraft is a secondary profession; this means you can take it without sacrificing one of your main professions. In this wow cooking guide, I’ll tell you a bit about the wonderful world of in-game cooking and give you some tips on how to level up and get the most out of this unique profession.

To do anything as a cook in wow, you will need a few things: something to cook, something to cook, and something to cook, simple. For starters, you’ll gain the ability to make fire, so as long as you have some firewood, you’ll have something to cook. Some recipes won’t require anything extra to cook once you have the ingredients, but if they do, you’ll only need one of them as they don’t run out. However, the ingredients are and can be the most expensive part of leveling up the profession. Luckily, cooking is not a profession that is particularly in demand in wow, so the ingredients (or reagents) are not usually very expensive.

You may be wondering why you should cook, well there are a couple of reasons. Mainly, it is a good source of profit since when you upgrade, you will be able to cook food that is better than what you can buy or pick up. Also, food reduces leveling time, since you don’t need to wait for health to regenerate for as long.

It can be quite difficult to profit from cooking as a profession, since most foods are quite low in value, but in the new expansion packs there are many more novelty items that tend to have higher values. One such recipe is Savory Deviate Delight. The recipe itself can be quite expensive to pick up (over 20g), but if you’re on the horde side, you can farm it in the Barrens quite simply. You then need to combine your cooking with fishing and head over to the Wailing Caverns instance, where you can catch Deviate Fish, which you can then cook into Savory Deviate Delight, which sells for up to 10 gold per stack. The whole process can be done by a level 15-20 character quite easily, so if you are low on money, we recommend giving it a try.

Hopefully you’ve learned a thing or two from this amazing cooking guide, but most importantly, you just need to get out there and cook things, after all, that’s the only way you’ll ever get better.
