The recovery image is inside the zip file. You just have to extract it from there.

would that be the "boot.img" in the file?

Yes, boot.img is the file you want to extract.

Here is a guide for how to setup ADB http://www.redmondpie.com/how-to-set-up-android-adb-and-fastboot-on-windows-tutorial/ which is the hardest part for most users imo. The flashing is as @jd1639 says.
Is there anyway of flash a future offical firmware update (4.4.1 for example) with the twrp in the same way that a custom rom? Is there any official web where download the official firmware?

Not the official Google image as it will not install on a modified system, a modded one might be possible. But whats the point, might as well have a deodexed custom rom then.
If i install the stock rom the stock recovery will back too?

Yes, contains everything. Backup files first as it will wipe your device.
But can i restore only the recovery and not all the stock rom?

1. Setup adb if you haven`t, see for the link my previous post above for how to
2. Download factory image from here https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
3. Extract the downloaded image with 7-zip and then extract image-hammerhead-krt16m once and in the folder you find the recovery.img file
4. Flash that file in fastboot with the command: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img and after that type fastboot erase cache and reboot. That`s it.

Well .img would be alright coz I can flash it with ODIN, but I'll try this.
Thanks
EDIT: Wait, I need .tar.md5 of the recovery to flash with ODIN, right?

It seems no one has created a CWM for your phone.
You can create it on your own.
Check here: How to make CWM recovery
You can get scatter file and boot.img from the stock ROM here: http://13freak.blogspot.in/2014/12/lenovo-yoga-b8000-h-3g-100-firmware.html

By the way he is using mt6595 mine is mt8389 so can I still do it?
I'm worried that I may brick my device so I'm being careful. Thanks for the immediate response.

Yes, most MTK devices will work for that.
If you're afraid it will brick the phone, you can do this:
Follow the steps from there until recovery image (.img file) is created.
Then boot into Fastboot mode (Google it if u don't knkno
then using ADB, execute this command:
Code:
fastboot boot pathname/recovery_name.img
(Where pathname is the directory where recovery is present with name recovery_name.img)
Better rename it as recovery.img and place in C:\ and use it like this:
fastboot boot C:\recovery.img
If it boots and CWM recovery shows up, then you can flash it
U can also use it directly by this way by booting

Did you modify anything on /system or any other partition other than /data?
If not, flash back stock recovery and see if it wants to install OTA.
Or you could try flashing the full firmware using Firmware Finder.
To get recovery, download your firmware from http://hwmt.ru/hwmtsite/firmware-database
Extract the zip.
Download Huawei Update Extractor.
Open update.app in HUE.
Right click on Recovery and extract.

Extract the one named Recovery. Not recovery2.
It should extract as RECOVERY.IMG. Right click on Recovery in HUE and select Extract Selected.
And question, SuperRoot or SuperSu?

oh i see, you are talking about the twrp backup files. just open those with 7zip! if you didn't have used compression while backing up, it should be simple
if you have the stock firmware with sparsechunk files, take a look at this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2663029
