CWM Recovery is a custom recovery environment that replaces the stock Android recovery. It allows advanced operations like flashing custom ROMs, creating full system backups (Nandroid), wiping partitions, and rooting.

Otherwise, I recommend against using such unverified firmware. CWM Recovery is a custom recovery environment that
