WoW Cooking – Cook with Style!

Before the BC and WOTLK expansions have been released, cooking wasn’t really appreciated compared to other professions. Being one of the secondary professions, cooking is optional but this doesn’t make it less interesting as a profession and many players nowadays are getting into it.

Why is cooking so interesting?

Most of the players who level up cooking do it for many reasons such as fun, achievements, title, to enhance their performance in raids or just to make some profit. As you are able to notice, Cooking will give you many possibilities and fun things to do.

The perfect pair

It is said that cooking and fishing are the perfect pair. These two professions, when paired, will speed up the leveling of Cooking and can bring you loads of profit even though you can level them both separately.

Hail to the Chef

This title isn’t easy to obtain and that’s why it became very popular. To be able to complete Hail to the Chef achievement and get your title you need to finish a long list of different tasks. Some of these achievements will require you to learn many recipes in Northrend as well as in Outland and to devote some time into doing the daily quests.

Why is doing dailies good?

In the BC expansion players were introduced to the cooking dailies which gave some gold and nice rewards to anyone who was regularly completing them. With the WOTLK expansion, cooks will have a lot of fun while doing the Dalaran daily cooking quests. Players of the Alliance need to visit Katherine Lee in the s/w inn (the Silver Enclave), while players of the Horde need to visit Awilo Lon’gomba (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. In the bag you will always find a surprise such as an extra Dalaran Cooking Reward, Northern spices and sometimes you will be even lucky enough to receive a recipe. There are also special kind of spices you can get in this bag – Old Spices and Baby Spice. Baby Spices are fun to use since they can alter a player’s size and make him smaller.

All of the Dalaran Cooking Rewards you collect you are able to spend while purchasing new powerful cooking recipes. If you collect 100 you can also obtain a Chef’s hat with the Cooking with Style achievement. This hat will allow you to cook faster and it is a true reward for a good cook. The Dalaran Cooking Rewards could be also used for purchasing more Northern spices which you need for your high level cooking. 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.

Some extra tips for the daily quests

As you know the daily quests are random but nevertheless you can be prepared when it comes to your inventory. For the Mustard Dogs! daily you should have some Rhino Meat stacked and for the rest, plain Chill Meat will do just fine. Farming these meats in advance will save you a lot of time. If you manage to have these meats prepared, cooking dailies will take just a few minutes of your time. If you would like more on WoW Leveling, click here: WoW Leveling Guide
