Equipment Needed

The equipment needed to make Mushroom Gratin can be bought from Jeff at the General Store.

How To Sell Mushroom Gratin

Any dishes made in your kitchen can’t be shipped through Zack and the Shipping Bin. However, you can start selling food to Huang once you become friends with him at 4 friendship notes.

To sell a dish to Huang, stand in front of his counter while holding the item. Don’t interact directly with his sprite, as it will register as a gift instead.

The farmer stands in front of Huang’s counter while holding a pot of Mushroom Gratin.

Huang will then offer you a price, which you can actually reject for a chance at getting him to bid higher.

The price range for Mushroom Gratin is anywhere between 680 G and 770 G. If Huang offers you 700 G for the item, for example, you can turn him down and try again to get a higher price.

Huang offers to buy Mushroom Gratin from the farmer.

Keep in mind that his bids will never go lower or higher than this defined range, so 770 G is the maximum price you can get for selling Mushroom Gratin.
