There are one lot of both ingredients and recipes The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Usually it’s easy to tell them apart. But in one case, “wild vegetables” can refer to an ingredient or the name of a recipe.

Us Tears of the Kingdom guide to wild vegetables helps you distinguish between wild vegetables as an ingredient and (fried) wild vegetables as a recipe.

What are wild greens in Zelda: TOTK?

The first place you’re likely to encounter the phrase “wild greens” is during the “Gloom-borne Illness” side quest in Kakariko Village. It’s the quest that causes the Stealth Armor set to drop from exorbitantly expensive to a reasonable price.

If you are specifically looking for Sunflowersyou find them heaven islands high above Hyrule.

We found five Sundelions on the main platform alone, and it has a convenient quick travel location through the Kadaunar Shrine.
