Zelda Breath of the Wild – Can Fairies Be Cooked?

zelda-breath-of-the-wild

Fairies are listed in the same section of your inventory as food and other things you can cook with.

I've received a pink-shaped elixir in a bottle shaped like a fairy, and its recipe says it was made with just one fairy.

Can you use fairies in any other cooking recipe?

Best Answer

Technically, no, you can't cook them, but you can use them in recipes to get a better result – the fairy will be released after doing this.

From this guide:

And if you throw in a Fairy, you’ll get a lot more hearts from whatever you make together. Don’t worry, it won’t actually cook the Fairy.

This guide confirms this behavior, as well.

Cooking with a Fairy will add considerably to almost any meal you want to make. Don't worry, you won't actually cook the Fairy, but she will hover around the pot and enhance the meal for you. For instance, Fried Egg and Rice made with Hyliran Rice and a Bird Egg usually restores four hearts. However, add a Fairy to that recipe and it restores 14 hearts.

A user here says that using a Fairy in a recipe will result in them flying around the pot and strengthening the result.

You don't actually cook them. They fly around the pot and strengthen the result.
