Crimson Desert: Cooking Recipe Locations & Interactive Tracking Guide

In Crimson Desert, every meal is a strategic buff. Cooking Recipes (known as Culinary Knowledge) are physical items hidden in the kitchens of noble manors, sitting on the tables of regional inns, or awarded for completing local "Request" missions.


Unlike standard vendor gear, these recipes are often hidden in plain sight; for instance, the Fishball Soup recipe is found sitting on a humble table near the Hernand Guard Station, while the high-health Meat and Vegetable Porridge is located deep within the kitchen of Hernand Castle, accessible only after you gain entry during the "First Encounter" storyline quest.


Acquiring the most powerful "Hearty" variants requires you to scour the continent's social hubs. Most major towns feature an Inn where the innkeeper—such as Dahlia in Hernand—sells staples like Pickled Vegetable, Braised Fish, and Pan-Fried Rice Cakes.


Some of the most valuable recipes are found through environmental storytelling; you can find the Battered Meat and Fish manual hidden behind the counter at the Hernand Inn, or the Braised Ribs scroll sitting on the banquet hall floor after your duel with the boss Kearush.


As you venture further south, the Inns in Pailune and Tomasso offer more complex fare, such as Bird Soup, Grilled Meat Steak, and the Salt-Roasted Bird Meat favored by the southern mercenaries. For the ultimate end-game dishes, like the Boiled Meat (+420 HP) or the Seafood Stew, you must travel to the remote town of Beighen or upgrade your Greymane Camp until Ronnie is available to share his "Special Pot" secrets.


To help you complete your collection of Cooking Recipes, we have included their locations on our Crimson Desert interactive maps. You can also see them listed below alongside all required ingredients.
