Where to find Hearty Truffles in The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom

The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom has compelled gamers to return to Hyrule. Newcomers may find the region slightly intimidating since it has its fair share of peril. During some early quests, players have to accept that they cannot emerge victorous and simply flee the scene. Healing supplies like Hearty Truffles prove to be quite handy in such situations.

Hearty Truffles can be found underneath trees in the Great Hyrule Forest and Hyrule Field. They can also be obtained from the Spore Store, the East Wind, and the wandering merchant Cambo. Upon consumption, they restock two Hearts.

When Hearty Truffles are exposed to Fire, they can be cooked into Toasted Hearty Truffles. They may also be used as an ingredient in the Kochi Dye Shop to make Black Dye. Here's an overview of where you can get them.

Explore the caves

Truffles, being underground fungi, can usually be found in temperate forest environments. Since they are rare, you may not be able to get your hands on them if you keep returning to the same caves. Instead, make it a point to explore as many cave systems as possible.

Do remember that hostile creatures may inhabit most caves, so you have to be prepared with ammunition. You can also fuse your arrows with items like Fire Fruit and Bomb Flowers.

Locate the Satori

You will have encountered the horse-like Satori in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. The glowing, tamable creature is also part of Tears of the Kingdom, and you will likely encounter it on the left side of Hyrule Fields. Players with fast-travel enabled to Yamiyo Shrine will have no problem navigating the spot.

You will come across beautiful cherry blossom trees and the NPC Konora. The latter will express her desire to see a Satori, and you can then get to work. You will find a little altar with an empty basin against the tree. Drop any fruit — Fire Fruits, apples, etc.

White lights indicating the locations of adjacent caves will immediately show up. Pin them on the map so you can visit them one after the other. You should note that the Satori will not distinguish between the caves you have visited and those that are unexplored. You can carry out this process multiple times to visit all the neighboring caves and collect Hearty Truffles.

Where else can you get Hearty Truffles in The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom

If you want to try a different method, pay a visit to the swampy sections of the map like the Rabella Wetlands and the North Akkala districts. Hearty truffles can usually found under the trees and in shallow, moist tunnels. The Kakariko Village Cave, located atop the second waterfall in Kakariko Village, will also grant you one Hearty Truffle without fail and help you complete the Out Of The Inn quest.

Finally, you can purchase Hearty Truffles from merchants across Hyrule. The price will be somewhat high, so make sure you know how to farm Rupees in The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom. That said, the likelihood of Hearty Truffles appearing in merchant inventory is low.
