Nordic Gourd location

Eventually, you’ll catch sight of a Yellow Heart on the ice. This is your cue that the ingredient is nearby. Head over to the symbol to find the first ingredient in the form of a Nordic Gourd.

The next ingredient is the Prongfruit and it will have you travel all the way to Svartalfheim. When you reach the area, complete the Forge and head over to the train tracks.
Next up, you’re required to get to the Nornir Chest which is down the hill towards the right. Once there, you’ll find a Green Heart marking.

The next ingredient on the list is Bantam Melon found in the realm of Vanaheim at the Sinkhole. To get to the sinkhole, you must first gain access to the Crater.
It can be done by completing the favor Scent of Survival. Now with the Crater unlocked, complete the Return of River to gain access to the Sinkhole.
