Guild Wars 2

What happen if you consume a recipe for example; Chef recipe on a character which you don’t have Chef crafting.

Would it stays in your bag or just end up consume and be available when you decide to start Chef on that character?

I don’t feel to risk a recipe for science.

It would be consumed and be available when you start chef and level it to the necessary level for the recipe.

If you wanted to test you could grab the very cheap recipe sheets from the trading post. There are bunch that are only 2c.
