Recipe Details

Golden Garlic Crisps is prepared exclusively at the Oven cooking station. The Oven is unlocked by purchasing its blueprint from the Aureleaf Kitchen and then crafting it at your Worktable. Unlike the Gas Stove or Campfire, the Oven handles baked and toasted recipes. Once you have an Oven set up on your homestead, select Golden Garlic Crisps from the recipe list and the dish will be ready in under a minute.

Ingredient Sourcing

Golden Garlic Crisps requires three ingredients, all of which can be produced on your farm or homestead. Here is how to obtain each one.

Garlic (X2)

Garlic is an all-season crop that grows in Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter. Garlic seeds cost 60 Coins from the Happiness Seed Shop and require Apprentice Farmer rank to purchase. The crop takes 1 day and 12 hours (36 in-game hours) to mature and yields 4 Garlic per harvest. Garlic must be planted in a Planting Box rather than open farmland.

Since each batch of Golden Garlic Crisps uses 2 Garlic and each harvest produces 4, a single Garlic plant provides enough for two servings of this recipe. Keep several Planting Boxes dedicated to Garlic if you plan to cook this dish regularly.

Flour (X2)

Flour is a processed ingredient made by running Wheat through the Separator. The conversion rate is 1 Wheat to 1 Flour. Wheat is one of the earliest crops available in the game, costing 50 Coins per seed from the Happiness Seed Shop. It grows in all four seasons, takes about 18 hours to mature, and yields 4 Wheat per harvest.

To produce 2 Flour for one batch of Golden Garlic Crisps, you need 2 Wheat. Since each Wheat plant yields 4, a single harvest gives you enough Wheat for two batches of this recipe. The Separator is a Starter-level Crafter blueprint available from Zerine's General Store and can be crafted at the Worktable using 3 Stone, 3 Softwood, and 5 Fiber.

Fine Salt (X1)

Fine Salt is crafted at the Charcoal Kiln using a Salt Brick and Fiber. Salt Bricks are gathered from mining deposits found in caves and rocky areas around the island. The Charcoal Kiln is available early in the game as part of Zerine's crafting quests.

Fine Salt is a common cooking ingredient used across many recipes, so keeping a stockpile on hand is a good habit. Process a batch of Salt Bricks whenever you return from a mining trip to ensure you never run short.

Profitability

Golden Garlic Crisps sells for 146 Coins per serving. To evaluate its profitability, consider the raw value of the ingredients you are converting into the dish.

The raw ingredient value of Garlic (54 Coins) plus Wheat (32 Coins) totals 86 Coins. Since Golden Garlic Crisps sells for 146 Coins, you gain roughly 60 Coins of added value per batch by cooking rather than selling raw ingredients. Fine Salt has negligible raw value since Salt Bricks and Fiber are gathered for free.

With a cook time of just 57 seconds, Golden Garlic Crisps offers reasonable profit per minute for an Oven recipe. However, higher-value Oven recipes like Cloud-Soft Toast (231 Coins, +102 stamina) and Butter Crunch Cookie (205 Coins, +97 stamina) provide better returns if you have the ingredients available.

For maximum profit, sell Golden Garlic Crisps to the Merchant Ship when it docks, as the Merchant Ship pays 200% of normal sell prices. This boosts the selling price from 146 Coins to 292 Coins per serving, significantly improving the profit margin.

Related Recipes

Golden Garlic Crisps is one of several recipes cooked in the Oven. Below is a comparison of all Oven recipes that use Flour, sorted by sell price.

Golden Garlic Crisps sits in the middle of the Flour-based Oven recipe lineup. It has a lower sell price than Cloud-Soft Toast and Butter Crunch Cookie, but it does not require Sugar, which can be convenient if your Sugar supply is limited. If you are specifically looking to convert Garlic into cooked value, this is the Oven recipe to use.

Tips

• Golden Garlic Crisps cooks in 57 seconds, making it the fastest Flour-based Oven recipe. Use it when you need a quick stamina snack without waiting for longer bakes to finish.

• Both Garlic and Wheat grow in all four seasons, so you can produce Golden Garlic Crisps year-round without worrying about seasonal crop availability.

• If you have extra Garlic beyond what you need for Golden Garlic Crisps, consider cooking Fire-Kissed Garlic instead. It uses 2 Garlic and 4 Cooking Oil, sells for 262 Coins, and also cooks in the Oven. The higher sell price makes it the better profit option when Cooking Oil is available.

• Keep a small stockpile of Golden Garlic Crisps in your inventory while exploring. At +80 stamina recovery, it provides a solid energy boost without consuming your rarer, higher-tier food items.

• Set up sprinklers next to your Garlic Planting Boxes and Wheat fields to automate watering. This saves time every morning and ensures consistent harvests for your cooking ingredients.

• Sell cooked Golden Garlic Crisps to the Merchant Ship for 292 Coins each (double the normal 146 Coin price). Stockpile servings throughout the week and sell in bulk when the ship arrives.

• The recipe only costs 160 Coins at the Aureleaf Kitchen, making it one of the cheapest recipes to unlock. Pick it up early so you can start cooking as soon as you build your Oven.
