Should You Sell Recipes?

Give to Shop Vendors as Gifts

Food Recipe Recipes →
Butcher Shop Butcher's Shop

Crafting Manual Crafting Manuals →
Tailor Tailor's Shop
Smithy Smithy
Equipment Shop Equipment Shop

Recipes and crafting manuals can be gifted to shop vendors related to each recipe. Food recipes can be given to shops associated with food, such as the grocer or the butcher. Crafting manuals can be given to the equipment shop, tailor shop, and smithy, as they are related to weapons and armor.

Trust System Explained: Is Gifting Worth It?

Sell After Learning the Recipe

Recipes are safe to sell after you’ve learned them or after maxing the trust of shop vendors. They have no further use once examined and are essentially junk in your inventory if you do not wish to give them to shop vendors.
