[I read this article by Lin Sai, it's not long, it's probably warm and healing, you can understand it even if you haven't played the game (I'm sure)
Link woke up in the familiar yet unfamiliar continent of Hyrule, with only three things around him.
A master sword, a white horse, and a cooking notebook filled with annotations.
He opened the note curiously:
"Seafood chowder - hella, goat butter, rock salt, snapper and conch she doesn't like."
"Nut cake - tart wheat, cane sugar, goat's cream, remember to add acorns, she likes it."
"Sea and terrestrial grilled - animal meat and seabass, she said it's the most delicious when grilled this way."
Link felt unfamiliar with these crooked handwriting. Following his notes, he walked through plains and snow-capped mountains.
At the Baijie Newspaper Office, the reporter named Sanye opened his eyes in surprise when he saw the notes in his hand: "This is your and Her Highness Zelda's handwriting! Don't you remember? She lived here for a month a few years ago and followed me to learn typesetting every day. She said she would compile these recipes into a book."
Link was stunned when he heard the words. He looked down at the words, and instantly felt that every stroke became hot to the touch.
In Hateno Village, the old village chief took the note and flipped through it, with a smile on his face: "Her Highness Zelda insisted that I tell her the differences in the origins of various ingredients, and she even wrote down three full pages in a small book. I said, can't you just use convenient materials? Her Highness shook her head and said, 'Link always doesn't eat well.'"
Link remembered that he did have the habit of dazing in front of the pot. Sometimes he stared at the bubbling stew, and sometimes he looked at the campfire that was about to go out. It seemed that doing this was more meaningful than eating.
Arriving in Gerudo Town, the proprietress of Qibao City recalled the past when she saw the note: "Her Highness Zelda came to me every day and said she wanted to learn to make nut cakes. I told her that you were the princess, but she said that Link liked it, but she couldn't remember to add acorns."
That night, as he sat on the sand dunes of Gerudo, a vague shadow came into his mind.
Golden hair as bright as the sun, eyes as bright as emeralds.
He seemed to have remembered.
Someone would always worryly ask him "if he was injured" when he came back from an outing, and would wrinkle his nose and complain that the wrong fish was put in the seafood chowder he made, but he still ate it cleanly.
Always calling him with such a gentle voice.
The white horse snorted behind him and rubbed his back.
Link stood up and put the note in his arms close to his heart.
There are still many places that she has not visited during her trip to Hyrule, including the hot springs of Death Mountain, the rainforest of Feroni, and the castle that trapped her.
He got on his horse, and the white horse's mane was flying in the night wind.
This time, he knew where he was going.

*As I said before, Lin Sai is the best in the world! ! !
