Mushroom Quiche
Food · FoodDishVegetable3★Eggs, vegetables, mushrooms and cream baked into a pastry shell, and no worse for being served cold. Fullness lasts longer and SAN drops more slowly for a while.
Mushroom Quiche is 6th of 20 cooked dishes by hunger restored, at 184 against the 738 of Special Cake.
Nothing is crafted from it — it is an end product, so anything you make is meant to be used rather than banked as a component.

Where to Find Mushroom Quiche
Mushroom Quiche is not something you find lying around — you craft it, and the recipe is below.
Using Mushroom Quiche Well
The buff lasts 10 minutes and halves two drain rates at once: hunger falls 50% slower and SAN falls 50% slower for the whole duration. Eat one as you leave for a dungeon, a boss tower or a long survey trip — burning it while idling in camp wastes most of the ten minutes.
It is a top-tier kitchen dish, not something the Cooking Pot can turn out. The Large-Scale Stone Oven unlocks at technology level 49 for 5 points and costs Cement x200, Charcoal x200, High Quality Wooden Board x25 and Cryogenic Coolant x13; the Ancient Kitchen at level 70 cooks it as well.
Four of the five ingredients can be produced in one base long before the oven unlocks: a Wheat Plantation feeding a Mill (both level 15) covers Flour, an Onion Plantation (level 36) covers Onion, and a ranch with Mozzarina and Chikipi covers Milk and Egg at one each per drop. Set those up while levelling and the only thing you have to fetch by hand is mushrooms.
Mushroom has no plantation, and each quiche eats two. Cheapest steady supply is Mycora or Lovander, both of which hand over 2-4 per pal, or the Verdant Hollow and Secret Realm of the Forest expeditions, which return 3-10 on a 30-minute run about half the time. Caravan Shops will sell them outright at 300 Gold each if you just want the batch finished.
Alternatives and Upgrades
Step up from here and you get Cake at 656 hunger restored; step down and it is Minestrone at 146. That gap is the honest measure of whether an upgrade is worth the materials right now.
