Growing Hearty Radish in Tears of the Kingdom

Duplicating Hearty Radish

Where to Find Big Hearty Radish in Tears of the Kingdom

Desperate players seeking an abundance of Hearty Radishes could explore various duplication glitches. By exploiting the game's mechanics, even a single Hearty Radish can be multiplied indefinitely. The methods for achieving this differ from patch to patch, but worry not! Game Rant's comprehensive guide details all the current techniques for duplicating items in Tears of the Kingdom.

Big Hearty Radishes are extremely rare compared to regular Hearty Radishes. However, when used as an ingredient in cooking, they provide an additional five bonus hearts. This means that when five of them are cooked together during a Blood Moon, you can obtain a maximum of twenty-six bonus hearts. Due to this remarkable benefit, it is highly recommended to either search for one using Uma in Hateno Village or exploit glitches to duplicate them.

The most accessible Big Hearty Radish can be found at coordinates 4781, -0792, 1938 on a lush island covered in vines above Valor Island in the South Lanayru Sky Archipelago. To make travel convenient, Mayanas Shrine is situated on this island. Alternatively, to reach this location easily, one can head northeast from Mount Lanayru Skyview Tower and utilize the flying devices to ascend until Link arrives at the vine-covered island. At the summit of this island, Link will discover a treasure trove: a Big Hearty Radish.

Uses For Hearty Radish in Tears of the Kingdom

Hearty Radish and Big Hearty Radish will restore health when eaten raw, but there are better ways to utilize the effects of these ingredients:

Cooking With Hearty Radish

When preparing dishes with Hearty Radish and Big Hearty Radish, it is crucial to take into account the bonus heart effect. Certain ingredients can either enhance or nullify this effect, so it is important to exercise caution while cooking to avoid such incidents. It is advisable to refrain from using ingredients that bestow different effects, such as stamina restoration, cold resistance, or attack boosts, as these effects do not accumulate and instead counteract each other.

Conversely, incorporating other ingredients with the "hearty" designation will amplify the number of bonus hearts that Link can obtain. This category includes ingredients like Hearty Bass, Hearty Salmon, Hearty Truffles, and Big Hearty Truffles. Additionally, combining Hearty and Big Hearty Radish in a single dish can achieve this desired effect.

For a delicious meal with Hearty Radish, give these recipes a try:

Hearty Wild Greens Stir-Fry: Whether you have a few small or large Radishes, this easy recipe can replenish up to twenty-six extra hearts. Use five Hearty Radishes, five Big Hearty Radishes, or a mix of both.

Hearty Mushroom and Vegetable Skewer: Mix either Hearty Radish, Big Hearty Radish, Hearty Truffle, or Big Hearty Truffle to create this delightful recipe.

Creamy Heart Soup: Although this recipe is a special one and should be cooked at least once to be included in the cookbook, it is important to mention that it does not provide any additional heart bonuses. Cook together one Hearty Radish, one Volt Fruit, one Hydromelon, and one Fresh Milk.
