 Anything harvested from a special/ magical creature or plant is considered a unique ingredient. These are sold only by rare specialty dealers. The price per portion of unique ingredients is a number of gold pieces equal to the creature’s challenge rating (minimum 1) times 10. These dealers may be interested in purchasing unique ingredients from characters at half the retail price, but not until trust has been established with rigorous vetting. Plant prices are determined by the GM. The shelf life of all unique ingredients is 4d6 days due to the inherent magic or other rare properties imbued in them. \\
