No cooking, please. This will just lead to players expecting to find the book randomly or getting it as a gift from Sif or Xom. If this is such a problem, why don't you directly add an invocation to butcher corpses? A bit unthematic, I know. Then again, is it so bad to make Ash more useful for blade users than users of unarmed combat or blunt weapons? Once implicit butchering is implemented (on the schedule for 0.9), Ash could simply make an exception for butchering with bound hands (which would get rid of one of the biggest drawbacks of cursed weapons, of course); implementing it earlier just for Ash would defeat the purpose of delaying.
