Dhalmel Fricassee

Taken all the way down to base materials, a batch of 3 Dhalmel Fricassee is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 1 intermediate — Sour Cream ×1 — which resolves to 5 distinct raw materials totalling 9 units, plus 16 crystals.

That bill outweighs 5,492 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 644 of the 1,058 Culinarian ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 9 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 7 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 7 Fire Shard, 5 Fire Crystal and 4 Water Crystal.

Every step is Culinarian work, from a Lv 51 intermediate up to the Lv 57 finish, so one class covers the whole chain.

2 of the 5 raw materials match a gathering node, none of them timed; the other 3 come from vendors, drops or content this site does not track.

Of the intermediates, Sour Cream has the widest use: 15 recipes call for it, all of them Culinarian recipes.
