Cooking up some great Heat Resistance recipes is one of the best ways to keep Link cool in those Hyrulian areas that are just too hot to handle. So here are the best Heat Resistance recipes in TotK for when Link is suffering from a bad case of heatstroke.
Best Heat Resistance Meals and Ingredients in Tears of the Kingdom
Two of the best Heat Resistance Recipes are theChilly Meat and Mushroom Skewerand theChilly Mushroom Risotto. For those who want to utilize elixirs, the Chilly Elixir is also a fantastic option you may cook up in a pot. Chillshrooms and Chillfin Trout are some of the best base ingredients for these recipes and you can find a few of my favorites below.

Depending on the ingredients you use, any recipe can have a more potent effect or a longer duration. For example, you could make the Chilly Meat and Mushroom Skewer with just one Chillshroom, but the potency of the heat resistance will be much lower. The same applies to elixirs in Tears of the Kingdom. Using the Winterwing Butterfly is advised for the best effect. However, any additional monster part will do for a weak elixir.

Heat Resistance vs Flame Resistance
I also want to emphasize the difference between heat resistance and flame resistance in Tears of the Kingdom.

You’ll want to use heat resistance in places like theGerudo desert, where the temperature gauge will increase to unbearable conditions during the day. You’ll know Link is in need of some heat resistance when he starts sweating and panting.
Flame resistance is an entirely separate condition, and Link’s need for it will be indicated by him dramatically catching on fire. You’ll also the temperature gauge beside the mini-map engulfed in flames. You’ll want flame resistance for areas like Death Mountain.
