Scrambled Eggs

Taken all the way down to base materials, a batch of 3 Scrambled Eggs is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 3 intermediates — Cottage Cheese ×1, Table Salt ×1 and Cider Vinegar ×1 — which resolve to 6 distinct raw materials totalling 6 units, plus 10 crystals.

That bill outweighs 4,542 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 531 of the 1,058 Culinarian ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 7 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 3 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 7 Fire Shard and 3 Water Shard.

Every step is Culinarian work, from a Lv 1 intermediate up to the Lv 34 finish, so one class covers the whole chain.

3 of the 6 raw materials match a gathering node, none of them timed; the other 3 come from vendors, drops or content this site does not track.

Scrambled Eggs is itself consumed by 1 further recipe, all of them Culinarian recipes.
