BotW Enduring Food: Extra Stamina Recipes and Ingredients

What does Enduring food do in Breath of the Wild?

Enduring is the stamina version of Hearty. The dish refills the green wheel and then adds a yellow section on top, which you spend first. It is the effect for climbs and swims that need more than one wheel.

The game says: “Restores and overfills your Stamina Wheel.” The elixir’s description: “Restores stamina and temporarily extends your Stamina Wheel. The additional stamina will disappear as it’s used.”

Which ingredients give Enduring?

Only three ingredients carry it. Enduring has no levels: the strengths in the pot add up and set the size of the yellow section, up to two extra wheels. Endura Carrot adds 2/5 of a wheel per carrot.

Endura Carrot (4) is the only strong one. Tireless Frog (2) is a critter, so it only makes the Enduring Elixir. Endura Shroom has strength 1, but even alone it still adds 1/5 of a wheel, because the extra starts at the first point.

What is the easiest way to cook Enduring food?

Every row below was run through the cooking simulator built on the game’s data. The effect column is the yellow stamina added on top of a refilled wheel.

Five Endura Carrots are the whole recipe for the maximum. If you have fewer, cook them one at a time rather than with shrooms: an Endura Shroom adds little to a pot, but on its own it is a full refill plus a small extra. Endura Carrots also sell for 30 rupees each, so they are worth keeping rather than roasting.

Where do you find Enduring ingredients?

The compendium column is what the Hyrule Compendium shows for each entry. The last column counts where the map data places plants and mushrooms; the Tireless Frog spawns by area, so it has no count.

Twelve of the 30 placed Endura Carrots grow beside the Great Fairy Fountains, so a round of the fountains doubles as a carrot run. Endura Shrooms are spread along Hyrule Ridge and Hyrule Field. The game’s description says the Tireless Frog only comes out in the rain; the compendium lists the Lanayru Great Spring and Hyrule Ridge.

Which dishes ask for Enduring ingredients by name?

Most meals in Breath of the Wild take “any mushroom” or “any fruit”, so any of them carries Enduring when you use the ingredients above. The dishes below are the ones whose own recipe names one of those ingredients: the carrot dishes and the vegetable soups and curries.
