Flame Guard recipes in Tears of the Kingdom

Flame Guard is the effect that stops you bursting into flames near lava and Death Mountain, which plain Heat Resistance does not do. Only two ingredients carry it - both monster-side - so every Fireproof recipe is an elixir, never a meal. It caps at Lv 2 with 120 seconds of base duration per ingredient.
