The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom builds upon the Hyrule established in Breath of the Wild by incorporating familiar mechanics and materials. Thanks to the Gloom infecting the world, however, much of that familiar world has changed, including the availability of key ingredients like Hylian Rice and Tabantha Wheat. There are still some reliable sources for these ingredients, though, and this guide outlines all the best ways to get Tabantha Wheat in Tears of the Kingdom.
The 'Where to Buy Tabantha Wheat' section of this guide contains mild spoilers about the state of the Great Deku Tree in the Korok Forest.
Where to Buy Tabantha Wheat in Tears of the Kingdom
Buying this ingredient is the quickest and easiest way to get Tabantha Wheat. Tabantha Wheat is sold by the following merchants in Tears of the Kingdom and each stall stocks three at a time:
- Gerudo Town Cooking Stall (post-Lightning Temple completion) - 12 Rupees
- The Slippery Falcon in Rito Village - 12 Rupees
- Cooking Stall inside the Great Deku Tree (once healed) - 12 Rupees
Where to Get Tabantha Wheat in Tears of the Kingdom
Tabantha Wheat can be more easily found by chopping grass with a sword in the Tabantha Frontier. Players should pack some cold-resistance armor or meals and head to any point on the map in the Tabantha Frontier area. Swinging any weapon with a blade (Sword, Claymore, Reaper, etc) in grassy areas will eventually drop Tabantha Wheat. It'll take a couple of swings, but it's free. Plus, for some reason, this is also a great way to get an abundance of Hot-Footed Frogs.
