Tempura Platter

Taken all the way down to base materials, a batch of 3 Tempura Platter is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 2 intermediates — Cottonseed Oil ×1 and Gyr Abanian Flour ×1 — which resolve to 6 distinct raw materials totalling 14 units, plus 23 crystals.

That bill outweighs 6,557 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 851 of the 1,058 Culinarian ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 9 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 14 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 14 Fire Shard, 5 Fire Crystal and 4 Water Crystal.

Every step is Culinarian work, from a Lv 61 intermediate up to the Lv 66 finish, so one class covers the whole chain.

3 of the 6 raw materials come out of the ground, and one of them is time-gated: Lotus Root (8:00, 20:00). The widest gap between consecutive opening times is 12 Eorzean hours, about 35 real-world minutes.

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