Whats very funny to me about roe in provisioning recipies, is that they make zero sense in some of them.
This is the most obvious with the CWC gold recipie. You obtain it in a questline that makes a point about how hard it is to get good ingredients in CWC and that they have to make do with what they got. Then in the end you get rewarded a recipie where the guy specificlaly says that all ingredients are easily accessible so you wont have to go hungry, and it requires a perfect roe, the bloody rarest ingredient in the game ...

At least there are alternative recipes, but you can't exactly use an alternative method to make those writs. I often wonder if ZoS pay great attention to some of the grinds in this game. They obviously think we all get roes at a drop of a hat.

Only a very few of the woodworking furnishing recipes actually call for a Rosin, but every one of the provisioning furnishings call for a perfect roe. It is super unimmersive that it costs a perfect roe in order to make a mortar and pestle, or a mammoth cheese container. What happens with the roe? My character eats it while making the mortar? Roes are also the single most costly and rare of the gold components, far more so than alloys, rosin, wax and Kuta. And you also insist on putting roes in every gold recipe on top of that, like Orzorga's and Citrus Fillet. Only a small minority uses these gold foods, due to them being only a tiny bit better than regular purple and blue food that is vastly cheaper to make.
The master writ recipes that call for Orzorga's and Ambrosia already sit at half the price or less than all the other writs, due to them being far, far too costly to make because of the roe component.
Either put more roes into circulation, by increasing their droprate, or at least remove the roe cost from silly recipes such as mortar and pestle and mammoth cheese ..

Where does the roe go here? I drop it into the goblet once it's done?

Why are these even provisioning recipes to begin with? Mortar and pestle, bonsai tree and orcish skull goblet have nothing to do with provisioning whatsoever. Mortar should have been alchemy or blacksmithing, goblet woodwork or blacksmithing, bonsai tree alchemy or woodworking.
And for the love of Vivec stop requiring a perfect roe for every recipe that's gold!
And for the love of Almalexia double or triple the voucher rewards from those Orzorga/ambrosia writs - no one wants to do them! Or simply remove them completely.

Wait a moment. How does 1 exactly get a bonsai tree out of roe? What type of trickery is this? Especially considering that the roe of question comes from a fish. What part of the structure utilizes fish roe?
