Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree: Cookbook locations
Learn how to craft new items for your inventory with these new Cookbook locations.
Cookbooks are back for Shadow of the Erdtree, allowing you to craft new items for your Elden Ring inventory as you travel through the Shadow Realm. At time of writing, we've found nine new types of Cookbook in Shadow of the Erdtree, which means there are plenty of new items you'll be able to make by tracking them down.
Just like the Elden Ring base game, you'll need a Crafting Kit in your inventory before you can start using your new Cookbooks, but given how much of Elden Ring you'll need to have played before you can start Shadow of the Erdtree, you'll almost certainly have one of these already. So read on below for our in-progress guide to all the Cookbook locations in Shadow of the Erdtree we've found so far.
Cookbook locations in Shadow of the Erdtree
There are nine new types of Cookbook we've found so far in Shadow of the Erdtree:

- Greater Potentate's Cookbooks
- Loyal Knight's Cookbooks
- Grave Keeper's Cookbooks
- Tibia's Cookbooks

We're still in the process of finding out how many Cookbooks belong to each category, but to make things a little easier, we've created separate pages for each Cookbook type, which we'll be updating as soon as we find more of them during our playthrough.
Battlefield Priest's Cookbooks
The Battlefield Priest's Cookbooks detail the crafting techniques of the devout battlefield clergy who fought to spread their gospel throughtout the Shadow Realm.
So far, we've found four Battlefield Priest's Cookbook locations.
Fire Knight's Cookbooks
The Fire Knight's Cookbooks are crafting techniques left by the Fire Knights who served Messmer the Impaler. As you might have guessed from the name, they mostly deal with the art of wielding fire in battle.
So far, we've found two Fire Knight's Cookbook locations.
Forager Brood Cookbooks
The Forager Brood Cookbooks are records of crafting techniques left behind by the insectoid-like Forager Brood. You'll need to look out for these large, scuttling creatures as you travel the Shadow Realm, as finding one will reward you with one of their Cookbooks.
So far, we've found five Forager Brood Cookbook locations, but we know there are at least six.
Greater Potentate's Cookbooks
The Greater Potentate's Cookbooks are records of the greater potentate warriors who roam across the Shadow Realm. You'll meet some of them in Scadu Altus' Bonny Village, and mostly pertain to items that involve stuffing things into great pots.
So far, we've found 14 Greater Potentate's Cookbook locations, we think this might be all of them, but we'll update this if we find more.
Loyal Knight's Cookbooks
The Loyal Knight's Cookbook is a record of the crafting techniques passed down by the Royal Carian Knights, detailing the magical arts of the enchanted knight order.
So far, we've found one of the Loyal Knight's Cookbook locations.
Grave Keeper's Cookbooks
If finding most of these Cookbooks on corpses wasn't enough, the Grave Keeper themselves has some undead recipes to impart via these Grave Keeper's Cookbooks.
So far, we've found two of Grave Keeper's Cookbook locations.
Tibia's Cookbooks
Who would have thought this ghostly boatsman boss was into crafting? The ancient cookbooks give you a means of summoning the dead.
So far, we've found one of Tibia's Cookbook locations.
St Trina Disciple's Cookbooks
The St Trina Disciple's Cookbooks are, unsurprisingly all related to the patron saint of sleep that gives these Cookbooks their name.
So far, we've found two St Trina Disciple's Cookbook locations.
Igon's Cookbooks
Igon is one of the NPCs you'll meet in Shadow of the Erdtree, and this drake hunter's recipes are all about giving you as much protection from the many dragons that stalk the Shadow Realm as possible.
So far, we've found two Igon's Cookbook locations.
