Zelda Breath of the Wild Pot Cooking

Quick Links

Information

What is here?
The tables below show the dish / meal, the ingredients / items used to make it, and a in-game description of that dish.

How to make:
Within the inventory menu, you can select up to five ingredients for Link to hold. These ingredients can be thrown into a cooking pot by pressing (A).

Cooking Combinations:
Cooking the wrong combination of ingredients will result in dubious food.

Nuts can be added to any dish without changing the dish type. For example, Raw Meat and an Acorn will result in a Meat Skewer.

Fruit can be added to Meat, Fish, and Seafood without changing the dish type. For example, Raw Meat and an Apple will result in a Meat Skewer.

Nuts, Mushrooms, Fruit, Vegetables, Herbs / Flowers, and Courser Bee Honey can be added to Warm Milk / Wheat Bread without changing the dish type. For example, adding an Ironshroom when cooking the dish will create Tough Warm Milk / Tough Wheat Bread.

Rock Salt can be added to Rice Balls without changing the dish.

Some dish types take priority. Fish and a Vegetable or Herb / Flower will result in Steamed Fish. Using Seafood and a Vegetable or Herb / Flower will also result in Steamed Fish, even though it was Seafood that was used. The same thing occurs with Fish and Mushroom Skewer and Meat and Seafood Fry.

No Hearts Below?
With 71 different ingredients and each dish having up to 5 possible ingredients in it, there could be as many as 14,000,000 different combinations. Due to this large number of possibilities there is not a clean way to show the amount of possible hearts each dish type will have.

Caculating the hearts for each dish:
How much each dish heals can be caculated by adding up the heart amounts of all the raw ingredients you plan to cook, and doubling it. The exception to this rule is Hearty dishes, which always heal for all your hearts and then add bonus yellow hearts.

Example
Apple (1/2 Heart)	x2 =	Baked Apple (1 Heart)
