Baklava

Taken all the way down to base materials, a batch of 3 Baklava is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 2 intermediates — Gyr Abanian Flour ×1 and Honey ×1 — which resolve to 6 distinct raw materials totalling 12 units, plus 13 crystals.

That bill outweighs 6,221 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 773 of the 1,058 Culinarian ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 5 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 8 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 8 Fire Shard, 3 Fire Crystal and 2 Water Crystal.

Every step is Culinarian work, from a Lv 4 intermediate up to the Lv 61 finish, so one class covers the whole chain.

4 of the 6 raw materials match a gathering node, none of them timed; the other 2 come from vendors, drops or content this site does not track.

Of the intermediates, Gyr Abanian Flour has the widest use: 18 recipes call for it, spanning two of the eight crafting classes.
