    I so overcomplicated this meme i my head coz if you cook during blood moon the food gets extra buff and I thought the dishes are there coz everyone is cooking 🤦

      Wait WHAT!? Cooking during the blood moon buffs the meal!? Where were we supposed to learn that?

        No idea how I found this out, probably just from being on the BotW subreddit, but the specific timings are 23:30 - 00:00. This guarantees a crit effect from your meals (more duration, more hearts etc).

        In my head it was informed in a loading screen or by an NPC but I can’t find anything online that confirms this, so guess I just came across a thread once!

        I think 5 x Hearty Durians is 20 temporary hearts normally but under a blood moon I got 24 temporary hearts in one recipie.

          I really dislike the cooking mechanics, so I try to avoid it as much as possible. It means I also avoid fights, though, or else try to get really good at dodging. But 20 temp hearts? That’s incredible. I didn’t even know such a big buff was possible.

            It helps to just go to Faron tower, glide across to the lizalfos and take em out. Lots of durian trees there, pick em up and make a good few hearty meals. All the extra hearts means you’ll need to cook less.

        You can cook anywhere. If you are on the go use zonai stove from the ball. The food will have extra hearts like when you put a gold apple in it

          It’s 100% true. I haven’t played in a while but yeah, I would always try to take advantage of it when I could
