Usage Suggestions by Ingredient
This is just my personal opinion on what to do with each base ingredient you find on your travels.
Azure Shrimp
– If a mage, boil it and use it for Mana regeneration
– Otherwise leave raw and eventually make Luxe Lichette, even if just to sell for profit
Bird Egg
– If have no Cooking Pot, cook it over fire to be on the safe side ASAP
– Use for Pungent Paste at first, then Miner’s Omelette if have excess
Blood Mushroom
– Save for use in Healing Potions via Alchemy
Bread
– Use for Gaberry Tartine for use in cold weather
Common Mushroom
– Do not cook unless it is about to rot away
– Save for use in Poison Antidote via Alchemy
– If full up on Pungent Paste, Antidotes, and eggs, can use it for Miner’s Omelette
Gaberries
– Do not cook unless it is about to rot away
– Use for Meat Stew with any Raw Meat you have
– For cold weather make Jam/Tartine with leftovers, or just eat directly for stamina
Gravel Beetle
– Save for use in Healing Potions via Alchemy, unless need Tea for indigestion
Larva Egg
– Can directly cook and eat it for Health+Stamina regen, otherwise keep it raw
– If have Azure Shrimp you don’t want for Mana Regen, make Luxe Lichette with it
– If just want to sell it or want a 3-in-1 food make Ocean Fricassee with it
Ochre Spice Beetle
– Use for Pungent Paste
– If dealing with cold weather and Gaberry Jam/Tartine isn’t sufficient, make Tea
Raw Meat
– If have no Cooking Pot, cook it over fire to be on the safe side ASAP
– Make Meat Stew as your primary health regen food (or even to sell for profit)
– If low on Gaberries, worried about decay, or need Travel Rations, make Jerky instead
Raw Rainbow Trout
– Avoid grilling unless you really want that Mana Regen 2 + Elemental Resistance
– If have Azure Shrimp you don’t want for Mana Regen, make Luxe Lichette with it
– Otherwise Cierzo Ceviche is better for profit margin or for Mana regen or Elemental Resistance
– Remember that Cierzo Ceviche can be used for a repeatable quest in starting town
Raw Salmon
– If have no Cooking Pot, cook it over fire to be on the safe side ASAP
– Use for Pungent Paste at first
– Use up any Larva Eggs you don’t want to make Ocean Fricassee to sell or eat
– If a mage, make any extra into Pot-au-Dey du Pirate for Mana regen
Seaweed
– If have Larva Eggs, Azure Shrimp, and/or Rainbow Trout, use it for cooking
– Use for Soothing Tea if you are a mage, or Ice Rags for a melee buff
Star Mushroom
– Save for use in Astral Potion via Alchemy
