Unlocking achievements in video games can be a challenging yet rewarding experience, and the ‘Cooking by the Book’ achievement in Avowed is no exception. Unfortunately however, this particular achievement is currently bugged at the time of writing in that whether or not you cook all the recipes it doesn’t seem to pop. This guide will walk you through the steps to successfully obtain this achievement, based on first-hand experience.
Step 1: Gather Your Ingredients
Initially, I attempted to cook all the recipes within the recipe list throughout my playthrough, hoping it would trigger the achievement; however, that approach was not successful due to the existing bug. Instead, I found success by gathering all the necessary ingredients to prepare every recipe at once.

Something to keep in mind is that after a certain mission in Fior, florian rice will be available at the abandoned farms or as a singular item on the ranger tower. Bunch of peppers can be acquired through the apothecary in Paradis in Dawnshore.
Step 2: Cooking at the Campfire
Once you have collected all the ingredients required for every recipe, head to the campfire. The location to do this is the first campfire you encounter in Dawnshore in my experience. Here’s how to proceed:
1. Approach the campfire and interact with it to begin cooking.
2. Select all the recipes you have the ingredients for and cook them in one go.
Step 3: Confirming the Achievement
After cooking, pay attention to the bottom right corner of your screen. You should see indicators showing that all the ingredients have been utilised. Once you confirm that all items have been used, exit the campfire interface.
Wait for more or less 10 seconds, and if everything has been done correctly, you will receive the “Cooking by the Book” achievement!
By following these steps, you can efficiently obtain the achievement and enjoy the satisfaction of collecting every achievement.
