TotK Enduring Recipes: Ingredients, Enduring Elixir and More
Enduring food and the Enduring Elixir in Tears of the Kingdom: every ingredient that carries Extra Stamina, how strong each is and the dishes using them.
What does Enduring do?
Enduring food restores stamina and adds temporary extra stamina on top of your wheel, the in-game text says; the extra part disappears as you use it. It is the effect for when one wheel is not enough.
Which ingredients give Enduring?
Only three ingredients carry it: Endura Carrot (4 in the cooking data), Tireless Frog (2) and Endura Shroom (1). The Endura Carrot is also what wakes the Horse God — see the Horse God page.

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.”
Ingredients with this effect
| Ingredient | Type | Strength¹ | Sells for | Where it's placed² |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Endura Carrot | plant or vegetable | 4 | 20 | — |
| Tireless Frog | critter | 2 | 20 | — |
| Endura Shroom | mushroom | 1 | 15 | — |
¹ The number the game's cooking data gives each ingredient for this effect: higher is stronger, and a pot adds them up. Levels follow set thresholds on the total; the “easiest way” section below lists the combinations that reach them.
² How many times the game's world data places the ingredient at a fixed spot, and the three areas with the most (a region is the one of the nearest shrine). Ingredients from animals, monsters, ore deposits, shops or random spawns are not counted, and those listed can also turn up elsewhere.
Enduring Elixir: Cook one or more of the critters above with one or more monster parts.
Dishes that ask for one of these ingredients by name
- 54 Veggie Cream Soup
- 65 Vegetable Curry
- 74 Carrot Stew
- 80 Vegetable Risotto
- 127 Carrot Cake
- 160 Roasted Endura Carrot
- 176 Toasty Endura Shroom
Any other dish whose recipe takes an ingredient of the same type ("any mushroom", "any fish") also carries the effect when you use one of these.
How do you max out Enduring?
Enduring is capped. The cooking parameters stop it at 20 points, and 2 points make one-fifth of an extra stamina wheel, so the cap is two full extra wheels. Only one five-ingredient pot hits it: five Endura Carrots, 4 points each, cooked into Enduring Fried Wild Greens. Any other mix falls short — four carrots and a Tireless Frog cannot share a meal anyway, since a critter without a monster part spoils the pot.
| Pot | Points | Extra stamina |
|---|---|---|
| Endura Carrot ×5 | 20 | 2 wheels (the cap) |
| Endura Carrot ×1 | 4 | ⅖ wheel |
| Tireless Frog ×4 + monster part (elixir) | 8 | ⅘ wheel |
| Endura Shroom ×5 | 5 | ½ wheel |
Because five carrots already sit at the cap, an incredible success on that pot cannot add stamina and gives extra hearts instead. With fewer carrots, an incredible success adds two-fifths of a wheel. The elixir route is weak: four Tireless Frogs give less than half of what five carrots do.
Where do you find Enduring ingredients?
All three are rare. None reaches 30 fixed placements in the game’s world data:
| Ingredient | Fixed placements |
|---|---|
| Endura Carrot | 23; 13 around Hyrule Field, 4 in Popla Foothills |
| Endura Shroom | 15, all on sky islands |
| Tireless Frog | 14, spread across caves, wells and sky islands; 2 in Dueling Peaks Stable Well |
Endura Carrots are worth hoarding for another reason: the Horse God asks for one before he does anything else, and reviving a horse costs a Roasted Endura Carrot — see Horse God recipes. If your carrots run out, Endura Shrooms on the sky islands are the fallback, at a quarter of the strength.
