In order to throw items in The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom, you first have to pick them up. You can collect resources or items by breaking trees, bushes, opening chests, and killing enemies. From there, you have to put them in your inventory.

Once you have them in your inventory, you simply have to hold R like you would to throw your weapon, click up on the D-Pad, and find the item you want to throw.
