How to unlock the Let's Cook! achievement in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Definitive Guide

The Formulae for potions can be found randomly in chests and on the bodies of your fallen enemies.
If you want to get them a little quicker then merchants will usually have one or two and if you can find a person who sells alchemy supplies (The Icon on the map is a little flask) then they will likely be able to sell you quite a few of the formulae.

Throughout your playthrough, you will find that different potion formulas can be obtained in three distinct ways:

  • Purchased from city and village merchants
  • Found as loot in chests
  • Awarded via side quest completion

With this in mind, there are countless formulas to find throughout the Nothern Realms and this achievement will most likely come naturally within the first five to or so hours of your playthrough. Keep in mind that for the purposes of this achievement, formulas for decoctions and oils also count, meaning you can obtain the achievement if you’ve found four potion formulas, four decotion formulas, and four oil formulas. Once you've amassed 12 potion formulas, this achievement will be yours.

There are a few different ways you can collect and learn formulas. You can find them in chests, buy them from merchants, or get them as a reward from quests. Without trying, you will come across more than enough formulas in your playthrough to earn this trophy.

Recipes can be found by visiting places of interest marked with a "?". Just search the chests and sooner or later you will open the required number of recipes. Also, a large number of recipes are sold by a herbalist living northeast of Oxenfurt. By the way, he also gives a quest for a master alchemist from Skellige.
