Silent Shroom is a mushroom in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. The game describes it this way: “A strange mushroom that glows softly in the forest at night. Cooking it into a dish unlocks the nutrients in its cap, resulting in a meal that will allow you to move stealthily.” This page shows where it is placed, explains what it does in a dish, and adds up what the armor upgrades need.
