Jellied Harcot

Taken all the way down to base materials, a batch of 3 Jellied Harcot is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 2 intermediates — Garden Beet Sugar ×1 and Gelatin ×1 — which resolve to 5 distinct raw materials totalling 10 units, plus 21 crystals.

That bill outweighs 5,754 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 690 of the 1,058 Culinarian ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 14 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 7 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 13 Fire Crystal, 7 Water Crystal and 1 Fire Shard.

Every step is Culinarian work, from a Lv 14 intermediate up to the Lv 80 finish, so one class covers the whole chain.

4 of the 5 raw materials come out of the ground, and one of them is time-gated: Lemonette (6:00, 18:00). The widest gap between consecutive opening times is 12 Eorzean hours, about 35 real-world minutes.

Of the intermediates, Garden Beet Sugar has the widest use: 21 recipes call for it, spanning two of the eight crafting classes.
