Cooking Recipes are one of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of The Wild's biggest inclusions. This guide will help players cook every recipe in the game. The way Breath of The Wild completely changed its entire formula was like reinventing the wheel for the Zelda franchise. When the Zelda franchise entered the world of 3D with Ocarina of Timethe game was structured around going from dungeon to dungeon, finding a special item within each dungeon, and completing the dungeon using that special item. This would be repeated until the game was completed. While there were side quests for players to participate littered all around Hyrule, the main meat of the game came from its dungeons. As this formula began to grow older, Nintendo changed it up entirely with Breath of the Wild, where players can tackle any obstacle at any point. Cooking is another new change in the franchise and this guide will provide all the information needed for cooking recipes.

Cooking in Breath of The Wild is essential for players who want to optimize their playstyles. Cooking proper recipes will reward Link with bonuses like extra health, damage, cold immunity, heat immunity, and extra stamina. These can make the difference between life or death in certain situations. For example, locations like Death Mountain require that Link have the fireproof armor that can only be purchased at Death Mountain. Players will need to cook to make fire-proof food to make the trip up the mountain in one piece. Here is every recipe in the game and how to make them.

Breath of The Wild adds so much new content to the Zelda formula that it completely changes the system. A direct sequel is planned to build the story around Hyrule. The sequel has no release date currently, but development is still underway. The sequel will also likely build on the world map of Hyrule and continue the story of what happened to Calamity Ganon. This will likely be the new Zelda formula moving forward. The original is highly praised for its innovations to the series and continues to sell very well.
