Surviving in Hyrule will be incredibly hard if you aren’t investing much time acquiring cooked items in The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom. Coming across new recipes and making food items is one of the best ways to survive some of the harshest conditions in the game, along with healing Link while simultaneously providing him with bonuses.
However, to craft food in the game, you will first need to get hold of certain ingredients and resources. While most are easy to come by, some, like the Staminoka Bass, are difficult to accumulate.
The ingredient is required to make stamina-regenerate food or complete the side quest “Genli’s Home Cooking.” This leaves many players looking to get their hands on the ingredients in the game.
This guide will go over how you can get and use the Staminoka Bass in The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom.
Obtaining the Staminoka Bass to complete the “Genli’s Home Cooking” quest in The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom
The Staminoka Bass is one of the rarer in-game cooking ingredients, and the fish can be found in almost every reservoir you come across in central and west Hyrule. This includes deep rivers and lakes. However, they are incredibly hard to catch due to their rarity and the RNG they come with.
However, one of the best ways to obtain many is by completing Genli’s Home Cooking questline. You must remain in Rito Village during the quest and catch the fish there.
Additionally, another source that will provide you with a higher catch rate will be the shallow waters near the Riverside Stable. This area is located on the southeastern side of Hyrule, where you will find a Staminoka Bass. Look for fish with red stripes.
Best ways to use Staminoka Bass in The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom
The best way to use Staminoka Bass in The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom is by cooking them. While directly consuming the fish will restore 1 heart, it’s not the most optimal way to make the most of this rare resource.
You will unlock more recipes in the game as you experiment with food items. One of the best uses for the Staminoka Bass is to make Biting Simmered Fruit. The recipe is received from Genji after completing his quest, and upon consumption, it gives two and a half hearts of HP and the Cold Weather Attack effect for 5 minutes.
