Tales of Arise has 38 Recipe Locations. Finding 30 Recipes unlocks the Globetrotting Foodie trophy or achievement. This means you can skip 8 of the Recipes for trophies and achievements. There are also 4 DLC Recipes exclusive as a Pre-Order Bonus but they don’t count for trophies and achievements.
None of the Recipes are missable, can still get them all after the story. Recipes are Collectibles that you either find in Chests or obtain them as rewards from Sub-Quests. 5 Recipes come automatically from story progress.
This guide is structured as follows: First the 5 Automatic Story Recipes (you don’t need to worry about those), then Region by Region in chronological in-game order, then the Endgame Recipes that require some backtracking to previous regions (those aren’t available on 1st visit).
You can check which Recipes you’ve found and which ones you’re still missing by resting at a campfire and choose to cook a meal.
Meals provide passive buffs, so it’s good to have a wide range of recipes available. Before difficult bosses you can cook a meal that suits your playstyle. There are usually 3-4 tiers of effects – from worst to best: T (Tiny), S (Small), M (Medium), L (Large).
Furthermore, you can select with which team member to cook the meal. Some make the effect stronger but shorten the duration, others increase the duration but don’t improve the effect. You also need to cook meals to unlock certain Skill Panels.
