"A jiggly substance that normally comes from a Fire Chuchu. It consistently gives off heat. If struck, it will explode in a ball of flame."

— Breath of the Wild In-Game Description

Red Chuchu Jelly is a material found in Breath of the Wild and Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity.

Appearances

Breath of the Wild

Red Chuchu Jellies can be obtained as a drop from Fire Chuchus typically found in areas with blistering hot climates, such as Death Mountain. Regular Chuchu Jelly can be set on fire using fire-based weapons, or simply placed in locations where the air is on fire to create a red chuchu jelly. This process is irreversible (it cannot be turned back into plain Chuchu Jelly), but Red Chuchu Jelly can be imbued with electricity or frost via the use of electric and ice weapons respectively. Red Chuchu Jelly can be sold to shop-vendors such as Beedle for 10 Rupees each. Alternatively, they can also be traded with Kilton at his shop, the Fang and Bone, for 5 Mon each.

Red Chuchu Jelly can be used to ignite fires in combination with Wood, as it bursts in flames when stricken or shot at with arrows; this makes it an alternative to more precious resources like Fire Arrows, or in the absence of fire weapons or Flint. This also makes it useful in the presence of explosive barrels, as ignition through the jelly can make them explode.

Upgrades

Link can use Red Chuchu Jelly to upgrade the Snowquill Set. The Level 1 upgrades of the Snowquill Tunic, Snowquill Trousers, and Snowquill Headdress will require 3 Red Chuchu Jelly in order to upgrade it. Furthermore, the Level 2 upgrades require 5 more Red Chuchu Jelly, as well as 3 Warm Safflinas.

Cooking

Like other monster parts, Red Chuchu Jelly can be cooked with Bugs, Frogs, or Lizards, to create Elixirs. The jelly doesn't add anything of substance while cooking, but it is required to make the Elixir. If Link adds chuchu jelly to a dish with regular food, or if the pot only contains monster parts, this will result in Link making Dubious Food.

Elemental Transformation

Plain Chuchu Jelly can be irreversibly^(*) transformed (referred to as "stimulation" in-game) into the other types of jelly under various circumstances:

Action with plain Chuchu Jelly	Result
Strike with Ice weapons Vicinity of frost attacks Placing in cold areas	White Chuchu Jelly
Strike with Fire weapons Vicinity of fire attacks Dropping into/close to fire	Red Chuchu Jelly
Strike with Electric weapons Vicinity of electric attacks Stricken by natural lightning	Yellow Chuchu Jelly

(*)Note: "Irreversibility" refers to the fact that the plain Chuchu Jelly cannot be turned back into its plain state from any of the three elemental states; however, the elemental jelly states can be transformed between elemental states.

Transforming jelly with elemental weapons prevents the player from having to travel to locations where elemental Chuchus are found.
