Recipes

The cooking daily quests are also the only way to learn many cooking recipes.

Orgrimmar/Stormwind Dailies

When completing the Orgrimmar/Stormwind cooking dailies, you receive Chef's Awards which are used to purchase high quality recipes or a  [Crate of Tasty Meat].

Each daily awards 1 or 2 Chef's Awards and +1 or +2 to your cooking skill, with the amount depending on the quest. Note that the quest rewards are not identical between cities; the Stormwind daily quest might offer 1 award and +2 cooking skill on the same day that the Ironforge one might offer the reverse.

Strategy

Daily quests

Some quest objectives, including  [Infused Mushroom] and  [Crystalsong Carrot], can be tracked with [Find Herbs].

Recipes

A good tip when completing the Shattrath cooking dailies is to always choose the  [Crate of Meat] as your reward, until you have all recipes available from it, because it might contain items you need for your next daily cooking quest. When you have all of the recipes Crate of Meat has to offer, switch to  [Barrel of Fish] in order to obtain the remaining recipes.

Most cooking quests can be completed while in a raid group. The exception to this is   [30 Daily] Manalicious, as the mana berries cannot be looted while in a raid group.

Achievements

Completing all the cooking dailies can help you complete many of the criteria needed to earn the title <Chef> from completing the Meta-achievement  Hail to the Chef.

•  Our Daily Bread Complete all 5 Dalaran cooking dailies.
•  Kickin' It Up a Notch Complete all 4 Shattrath cooking dailies.
•  Let's Do Lunch Complete all 5 Orgrimmar/Stormwind cooking dailies.

Locations with many critters such as the turkeys, and the penguins in Howling Fjord or the frogs in Zul'Aman may be good locations to complete this achievement.
•  Iron Chef Learn all of the recipes available from vendors, visit trade good and general goods vendors through Azeroth, and complete the dailies to buy the recipes.
