When to use it
The first book that is a detour rather than a gift, and it is close to the start. Defense alone is the narrowest effect in the set — every other single-stat dish is HP — so this is the one to cook when a region is killing you rather than when a boss is out-lasting you.
Where it sits in the cook book
- It is cook book #5 of the 25 this site has records for. Cooking buffs in this game are permanent, which is what makes the book order worth tracking rather than the dish — why a meal you ate in Chapter 2 is still helping in Chapter 9.
- It is made from Soya Beans. Across the 25 catalogued books, Soya Beans appears in three.
- It arrives by "Found in the world", the largest of the four routes the 25 books come by — Found in the world 13, Bought 6, Known from the start 4, Kagura Rapport 2.
- Its location puts it in Ogouchi Buffer Zone, in the Kanto Region — the segment this site indexes as Chapter 1, first of the 13 marked segments after the prologue.
