The very first thing I want to stress to the reader is begin doing the daily Cooking quests in Orgrimmar and/or Undercity as soon as you can!  You will absolutely need the Epicurean Awards when you reach Illustrious Grand Master Cook (Cooking Level 450) if your toon hasn't reached Level 85 by then.  If you are able to go to Panderia, skip to '''Section II'''.  Otherwise, heed and read on. . .

'''''WoW Cooking Leveling Guide 1 - 525 if you are below Level 85'''''
We are using the Cooking in Mists of Pandaria to level folks from Cooking Level 1 to 525.  The upside is:  You will be able to level to Cooking 525 much quicker than in the past.  Now the downside is. . .there is none!.  We will have a Cooking Team Mage standing by in Silvermoon to record your information (name, level, etc.).  After grouping, you will be portaled to The Shrine Of The Two Moons where you will be met by Master Of The Ways Tynchal. You will be introduced to the Two Moons Flightmaster (if you haven't already met) to facilitate your return to Silvermoon when you are finished.  Then, you'll hop aboard a Cooking Team member's mount and fly to Halfhill, meeting the Flightmaster there so when you have finished leveling to 525, you can fly back to Two Moons then run upstairs and use the Silvermoon portal to return to The Craft Faire if desired. Then, you will be handed all the Cooking mats you will need to train with Sungshin Ironpaw, Cooking Trainer at Halfhill MarketIf you are at least Level 85, you will also receive all the mats needed to reach Cooking Level 600.

'''''WoW Cooking Leveling Guide 1 - 525 if you are Level 85 or higher'''''


This is the guide that you can use as long as you can get to Sungshin Ironpaw at Halfhill Market. You do HAVE to be at least level 85 to do this, but it makes the first 525 points so much easier. You should begin with your Cooking Skill Level at a multiple of 5; for instance, if you are 231, get to 235, then head to Halfhill and you can use the new method.  After the updates from Patch 5.4 Cooking has become much easier at the Craft Faire; and, it is THE fastest way to level your Cooking skill from 1 to 525. Otherwise, it would take many days because you would need to do daily quests to get the Epicurean Awards for the recipes from the trainers in Orgrimmar and/or The Undercity.

This fact is solo cool ! !


At 600 you can learn the ultimate recipe of a Way, which allows you to create food that increases the Way's associated stat by 300. This again HAS to be done on ALL '''Ways''' for the Meta and title, Yes ! I said Master Of The Ways is a META achievement !

You now have a cooking skill of 525 and are ready to learn the ways of Panda cooking! For those leveling it might be good to know that these will reward you the full amount of xp for your level.
'''So You Want To Be A Chef?'''
Accept the quest...you will have the ingredients to make your Sliced Peaches. Deliver the quest and pick up the follow up from her.
'''Ready For Greatness'''
Ready For Greatness is yet another simple quest. You will have 5 x Rice and 5 x Yak Milk and make your Rice Pudding. After completing this quest you will learn '''Zen Master Cook''' and receive a Ironpaw Token.
 
Six new quests now open up, 1 for each Cooking specialization. Every recipe grants 5 skillups as long as they're orange.  As I said before do the Ways in the order in this guide only, guarantees both 600 and the Meta "Master of the Ways" with mats stated.  Five of the Ways are associated with 1 primary stat and '''one with getting drunk'''. My personal FAVE ! ! "HIC" !
 
You may '''pick one of the Ways to level up during the Craft Faire''', preferably the one that supports your primary stat; '''or you can do all six if you want to put in the time'''.  Just make sure you come to the Craft Faire with lots of bag space! Oh, I almost forgot. . .you will earn the title of '''''Master Of The Ways'''''.
So the 6 Ways are:
*Agility - Way of the Wok
     
*Strength - Way of the Grill
     
*Stamina - Way of the Oven      

*Intellect - Way of the Pot
     
*Spirit - Way of the Steamer
     
*Getting drunk - Way of the Brew
 
These specializations are not exclusive; you can learn all 6 on a single character. In fact for the Meta you have to learn all 6 !
 
You gain cooking skill in each Way separately. As to your overall skill it is always equal to your highest skill in any Way.  At 575, all Ways get recipes for a 10 man and a 25 man Banquet that will increase stats by 250 (the Craft Faire provides mats '''only''' for the 10 man Banquet, ''not the 25 man ''Great Banquet'')''. Note that the Banquets are not bound to the Way's stat; a Mage like me eating from a Banquet of the Steamer will still get 250 Intellect from it, yet the Way of the Steamer is associated with Spirit.  This fact is solo cool ! !
 
At 600 you can learn the ultimate recipe of a Way, which allows you to create food that increases the Way's associated stat by 300. This again HAS to be done on ALL Ways for the Meta and title Master Of The Ways! Each Way levels up via a similar method:  First you need to Complete a quest to learn the cooking Way.  All quests start from Sungshin Ironpaw, and require ingredients to be delivered to the Way's trainer. Each of the sets are named below, with material totals as well.

For mats donations, please see the Cooking Spreadsheet at https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/14-X1p-kmQXpAnprn59tHLavuFvVBF-6Mz0nGwWL8I0o/edit#gid=2114201003

SECTION I Cooking 1 - 525 (for toons below level 85)

We are using the Cooking in Mists of Pandaria to level folks from Cooking Level 1 to 525. The upside is: You will be able to level to Cooking 525 much quicker than in the past. Now the downside is. . .there is none!. We will have a Cooking Team Mage standing by in Silvermoon to record your information (name, level, etc.). After grouping, you will be portaled to The Shrine Of The Two Moons where you will be met by Master Of The Ways Tynchal. You will be introduced to the Two Moons Flightmaster (if you haven't already met) to facilitate your return to Silvermoon when you are finished. Then, you'll hop aboard a Cooking Team member's mount and fly to Halfhill, meeting the Flightmaster there so when you have finished leveling to 525, you can fly back to Two Moons then run upstairs and use the Silvermoon portal to return to The Craft Faire if desired. Then, you will be handed all the Cooking mats you will need to train with Sungshin Ironpaw, Cooking Trainer at Halfhill Market. If you are at least Level 85, you will also receive all the mats needed to reach Cooking Level 600.

SECTION II Cooking 525-600 (for toons level 85 or higher)

This is the guide that you can use when you complete training with Sungshin Ironpaw at Halfhill Market. . .you do HAVE to be at least level 85 to do this.

Cooking 525-600

You now have a cooking skill of 525 and are ready to learn the ways of Panda cooking! For those leveling it might be good to know that these will reward you the full amount of xp for your level. So You Want To Be A Chef? Accept the quest...you will have the ingredients to make your Sliced Peaches. Deliver the quest and pick up the follow up from her. Ready For Greatness Ready For Greatness is yet another simple quest. You will have 5 x Rice and 5 x Yak Milk and make your Rice Pudding. After completing this quest you will learn Zen Master Cook and receive a Ironpaw Token.

Six new quests now open up, 1 for each Cooking specialization. Every recipe grants 5 skillups as long as they're orange. As I said before do the Ways in the order in this guide only, guarantees both 600 and the Meta "Master of the Ways" with mats stated. Five of the Ways are associated with 1 primary stat and one with getting drunk. My personal FAVE ! ! "HIC" !

You may pick one of the Ways to level up during the Craft Faire, preferably the one that supports your primary stat; or you can do all six if you want to put in the time. Just make sure you come to the Craft Faire with lots of bag space! Oh, I almost forgot. . .you will earn the title of Master Of The Ways. So the 6 Ways are:

  • Agility - Way of the Wok

  • Strength - Way of the Grill

  • Stamina - Way of the Oven 

  • Intellect - Way of the Pot

  • Spirit - Way of the Steamer

  • Getting drunk - Way of the Brew

These specializations are not exclusive; you can learn all 6 on a single character. In fact for the Meta you have to learn all 6 !

You gain cooking skill in each Way separately. As to your overall skill it is always equal to your highest skill in any Way. At 575, all Ways get recipes for a 10 man and a 25 man Banquet that will increase stats by 250 (the Craft Faire provides mats only for the 10 man Banquet, not the 25 man Great Banquet). Note that the Banquets are not bound to the Way's stat; a Mage like me eating from a Banquet of the Steamer will still get 250 Intellect from it, yet the Way of the Steamer is associated with Spirit. This fact is solo cool ! !

At 600 you can learn the ultimate recipe of a Way, which allows you to create food that increases the Way's associated stat by 300. This again HAS to be done on ALL Ways for the Meta and title Master Of The Ways! Each Way levels up via a similar method: First you need to Complete a quest to learn the cooking Way. All quests start from Sungshin Ironpaw, and require ingredients to be delivered to the Way's trainer. Each of the sets are named below, with material totals as well.

SUGGESTION: Keep the Cooking Trainer window open to the training schedule. This way you can see at what level the next recipe becomes available so you don't make more than you need.
