[show]Walkthrough & Notes

After speaking with the Master of Apprentices/Mistress of Apprentices in any given crafting area, they will direct you to either the nearest Expert Cook or the nearest Novice Cook, depending on the level of the area you are in. Once you speak to the cook vendor, they will give you a cook starter pack. Right-click on the item in your inventory to open it. The contents should automatically appear in your inventory - you will need at least three empty bag spaces for the ingredients and a fourth for the crafted item itself. Make sure your Cooking Supplies are equipped, and use the closest oven to craft a Cup of Spring Barley Flour. This recipe is acquired automatically upon becoming an apprentice cook, and should be under the heading "Ingredients" on the left sidebar of the crafting panel. After making the flour, you will be able to craft the Hard Biscuits (under the heading "Cooked Food"). Once the biscuits have been created, return to the vendor. She/he will approve your handiwork, and this will complete the quest. Notes: Although the vendor will inspect the biscuits, they will stay in the player's inventory after the quest has been completed. The quest text says "Esilia" in all the objectives when referring to the cook vendor, regardless of where you are. The cook vendor in any crafting area can accept and forward you through this quest, so there is no need to specially seek out Esilia. The bestowal dialogue will vary upon location and race.
