All Recipes and Cookbook - The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Guide - IGN (2024)

Cooking in Breath of the Wild is extensive, but there's no in-game system to track recipes. You can find Breath of the Wild (BOTW) recipes throughout Hyrule on banners and learn them from various NPCs. While learning them this way is neat, sometimes you just need a guide to help turn Link into a master chef.

This page is a collection of all recipes in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild sorted by meal and dish type.

For more information on all the healing, effects, elixirs, and food in Breath of the Wild, visit the Cooking, Material, and Food page.
