The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Food

Energy getting low? No longer can you simply slash at some grass or break a few pots to find hearts. Instead you must find ingredients to replenish Link's health. Eating the raw items will usually net him a small amount of hearts, but if you truly want to have some revitalizing energy in reserve you will need to teach Link how to cook.

Of course to do that, you'll need a fire source. You'll be able to create your own campsite with bundles of wood, something to start it on fire (flint and a sword strike to create a spark), and a pan to cook up your items. Experimenting with ingredients and concocting new food can be fun. Combine the right pieces and you'll create some amazing dishes that will not only replenish Link's hearts, but can also bestow other attributes to our hero. For example, adding spicy peppers to meals will often add Cold Resistance for a limited time so Link can explore snow-covered mountaintops without worrying about losing health from the icy conditions.

All of these foods were created in just the small 2% of the game world that was shown at E3. There could be a ton more to discover as new lands are fully explored.
