There are 570 recipes to be collected in total: 288 food recipes and 282 beverage recipes, including 258 Standard recipes, 230 Difficult recipes, 68 Complex recipes, and 14 Legendary recipes. Learning a recipe will remove it from your inventory, but in exchange, you will learn how to craft its meal indefinitely. Chefs and Brewers sell food and drink recipes respectively for large amounts of gold. Alternatively, recipes can be found in trunks, wardrobes, desks, nightstands, and the likes. The recipe received when you loot a container is based on your level and your Recipe Improvement rank. To cook food or brew a beverage, you must have the required provisioning skills. If you do, simply visit a cooking fire found in most towns to begin combining ingredients. Eating food and drinking beverages temporarily gives your attributes a bonus when consumed. However, food and beverage bonuses do not stack, so you have to pick only one.

There are two skills required to craft food and beverages.

  • Recipe Improvement ranges from 1 to 6 and lets you make higher Level-Requirement meals.
  • Recipe Quality ranges from 1 to 4 and allows you to craft Standard, Difficult, Complex, and Legendary versions of recipes.

For the full list of recipes see the Food Recipes, Beverage Recipes, and Special Recipes pages.
