This Battle for Azeroth Cooking leveling guide will show you the fastest way how to level your BFA Cooking skill from 1 to 175.

Often the materials are based on a case that you will gain one skill point each craft. This won't happen, so you will have to buy a few extra materials while you are leveling your Cooking.

Learning BFA Cooking

The new BfA Cooking skill is named differently for the two factions, but the name is the only difference between them.

Kul Tiran Cooking is the Alliance version and Zandalari Cooking is the Horde version.

Cooking Trainers:

• Horde: You can find T'sarah the Royal Chef in Dazar'alor. She is located in the kitchen right behind your mission table near the Great Seal in the Dazar'alor temple.
• Alliance: "Cap'n" Byron Mehlsack is in Boralus at the Tradewinds Market.

You can walk up to a guard in Dazar'alor or Boralus then ask where the Cooking trainer is. Asking the guard will place a red marker on your map at the trainer's location.

Recipe ranks

Every BfA cooking recipe has 3 ranks. Higher rank recipes allow you to cook more food for the same materials, and higher rank recipes also give skill points much longer. (the exceptions are the new Feast recipes, you always make one, but it will cost fewer materials)

Unlocking World Quests

Some of the Rank 3 recipes are locked behind World Quests. These are not required to reach 175, but you will save some gold if you can get them.

To unlock World Quest, you must complete the first steps of the Alliance or Horde War Campaigns until you get the quest Uniting Kul Tiras (Alliance) / Uniting Zandalar (Horde).

Cooking Reagents

The following Cooking reagents are all sold by Hanul Swiftgale (Horde) / Henrick Wyther (Alliance).

• Wild Flour
• Choral Honey
• Powdered Sugar
• Foosaka
• Wild Berries
• Fresh Potato

You can extract Aromatic Fish Oil from any Battle for Azeroth fish. You have to right-click the fish you caught, and it will convert the fish into oil.

Fishes no longer come from one specific zone. Instead, you can find 3 types of fish in the Kul Tiras zones, 3 in the Zandalar zones, 2 in Nazjatar, 1 in Mechagon and you can fish 2 in all zones.

Mechagon:

• Ionized Minnow

Nazjatar:

• Viper Fish
• Mauve Stinger

Kul Tiras:

• Frenzied Fangtooth and Lane Snapper - Fished from seas/oceans.
• Tiragarde Perch - Fished from rivers/lakes.

Zandalar:

• Slimy Mackerel and Sand Shifter - Fished from seas/oceans.
• Redtail Loach - Fished from rivers/lakes.

All zones:

• Great Sea Catfish - Rivers and lakes. (except Nazjatar)
• Midnight Salmon - Everywhere. (rare fish, around 3% catch rate)

Leveling BfA Cooking

1 - 35

34 x Mon'Dazi - 340 Wild Flour, 170 Foosaka, 68 Aromatic Fish Oil, 136 Powdered Sugar

You can extract Aromatic Fish Oil from any Battle for Azeroth fish. You have to right-click the fish you caught, and it will convert the fish into oil. You can find the list of fishes at the Cooking Reagents section above.

35 - 50

Learn the Rank 2 recipes from your trainer. (You don't have to make Kul Tiramisu, you can make any other dessert recipe)

15 x Rank 2 - Kul Tiramisu - 150 Wild Flour, 75 Foosaka, 30 Aromatic Fish Oil, 75 Major's Frothy Coffee

50 - 75

Make 25 from one of the these three:

25 x Seasoned Loins - 250 Stringy Loins, 125 Foosaka
25 x Honey-Glazed Haunches - 250 Meaty Haunch, 125 Choral Honey
25 x Sailor's Pie - 250 Briny Flesh, 125 Wild Flour, 100 Foosaka, 100 Fresh Potato

If you make Seasoned Loins, don't vendor them! Sometimes you can use them for Warfront Contributions quests when the Warfronts are up.

These meats are usually really cheap, so I recommend to switch to these dishes at 50, but if they are expensive on your realm, then it's better to make more Rank 2 - Kul Tiramisu up to around 75. As a general rule, if 1 Aromatic Fish Oil cost around the same as these meats, then you should make Kul Tiramisu because even if you have to craft 2-3 for a skill point, you would still only need 4-6 Fish Oil, instead of the 10 meats.

75 - 140

Learn the Rank 2 recipes from your trainer. Make around 120 from one of these three:

80 x Rank 2 - Seasoned Loins - 800 Stringy Loins, 400 Foosaka
80 x Rank 2 - Honey-Glazed Haunches - 800 Meaty Haunch, 400 Choral Honey
80 x Rank 2 - Sailor's Pie - 800 Briny Flesh, 400 Wild Flour, 320 Foosaka, 320 Fresh Potato

These will be green for the last 10 points, so you might have to make more.

Rank 3 recipes:

If you can get the rank 3 of these recipes, then you can make them until 150.

• Recipe: Honey-Glazed Haunches - Reward from the World Quest: "Work Order: Honey-Glazed Haunches" (this one will show up randomly sometimes on your map)
• Recipe: Seasoned Loins - Requires Tortollan Seekers - Revered. Sold by Collector Kojo
• Recipe: Sailor's Pie - Reward from the World Quest: "Work Order: Sailor's Pie" (this one will show up randomly sometimes on your map)

140 - 155

Visit your trainer Rolm (Horde) / Instructor Ulooaka (Alliance) at Nazjatar and learn the new recipes. (You have to finish the first few intro quest at Nazjatar before you can see these NPCs.)

15 x Rank 1 - Abyssal-Fried Rissole - 120 Moist Fillet, 45 Foosaka, 75 Wild Flour

You can make other recipes, but Moist Fillet should be the cheapest.

155 - 175

25 x Rank 2 - Abyssal-Fried Rissole - 200 Moist Fillet, 75 Foosaka, 125 Wild Flour
