The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom features a whole host of interesting recipes that Link can create while he is exploring Hyrule. Whether it is something totally normal such as Rice Balls or something a little out there like Monster Curry, Link can make some great meals.
One extremely popular meal that Link can create is Pizza. Link is able to combine some regular ingredients to create this beloved meal. The only issue is that it can be extremely difficult to figure out where to find the cheese to put in the pizza if you're not sure where it is located. Here is a guide to finding each ingredient and cooking the meal.

This update added some relevant in-text links to help readers find more information regarding certain aspects of this guide. It also added information about the ingredients.
What Ingredients Are Used In Pizza
There are three different ingredients that go into making a pizza. You will need Hateno Cheese, Hylian Tomatoes, and Tabantha Wheat. These items are pretty easy to come across if you know where to look.
Hateno Cheese
Hateno Cheese is the most difficult ingredient to get out of the three. You'll need to complete the side quest "A Letter To Koyin" in Hateno Village. Koyin is located at the Hateno Pasture. She is trying to obtain the letter in a bottle that is out in the lake by the pasture. Upon returning it to her, she will tell you it is her great-grandfather's recipe for Hateno Cheese. She will then begin making the cheese and selling it out of her home at the Hateno Pasture.
If you don't have enough money, she'll accept Fresh Milk in exchange for cheese rather than Rupees. If you need Fresh Milk, you can exchange 3 Acorns for it at the Hateno Pasture as well. Once this quest is completed, you can purchase the Hateno Cheese in general stores around Hyrule. The easiest one to go to is the Hateno General Store.
Hylian Tomatoes
Hylian Tomatoes are pretty easy to come by. They can be found growing in fields around Hyrule. They are also a very popular item for general stores around the Kingdom of Hyrule to sell. You can stop by the Hateno Village General Store and purchase Hylian Tomatoes along with Hateno Cheese. You can also find Hylian Tomatoes growing in the Necluda region of Hyrule.
Additionally, you are able to plant Hylian Tomatoes in a garden in Hateno Village after completing the quest "Uma's Garden." You can harvest your crops after 2 in-game days. Unfortunately, you cannot pass the time by sleeping or waiting at a fire for this.
Tabantha Wheat
Tabantha Wheat is found growing around roads in the Tabantha region of the map. This is the area close to Rito Village. You can also cut down grass in the area and sometimes find this item. The easiest way to obtain Tabantha Wheat is to purchase it at the Rito Village General Store.
How To Cook Pizza
Once you have your three ingredients, head to the closest cooking pot and add them in to cook. Once you're finished, you'll have a nicely baked Pizza. The Pizza recipe will then be added to your list of recipes. If you want to add more than one of the ingredients, it will add more Hearts to the amount the dish will recover. However, be careful that you don't add anything that isn't on the recipe list.
