Mushroom Omelette in Valheim: The Level-5 Cauldron Food, Stat by Stat
A Mushroom Omelette adds 28 health and 85 stamina for 1,500 seconds — 25 minutes — with 3 hp healed per tick. It is a Mistlands-tier food cooked in a level 5 Cauldron, and the wiki's own line on it is blunt about the trade-off: it costs more to make than a Salad but pays out more, and it under-delivers only slightly next to Fish 'n' bread while skipping the tedious Anglerfish grind. This guide breaks down the stats, the recipe, and where the omelette actually sits against its two closest competitors.
Mushroom Omelette at a Glance
The wiki's infobox gives a full stat block for the item, and it's worth reading in full before deciding whether it belongs in your three food slots:
| Stat | Value |
|---|---|
| Health | +28 |
| Stamina | +85 |
| Duration | 1,500 seconds (25 minutes) |
| Healing | 3 hp per tick |
| Weight | 1.0 |
| Stack size | 10 |
| Teleportable | Yes |
In-game item description, quoted directly from the source: "A delicious omelette with an earthy aftertaste."
That "Teleportable: Yes" line matters more than it looks — Valheim blocks a long list of raw ore through portals, but a finished food item like this one carries through without a boat run. Stack size 10 and weight 1.0 also make it cheap to haul a full food loadout across biomes in a single trip.
The Recipe
The source is precise about the station requirement: Mushroom Omelette is produced in a level 5 Cauldron, using:
- Egg x3
- Jotun puffs x3
Both ingredients' own gathering method and exact drop/spawn rates are undocumented in this source — the facts here cover the recipe and the finished item's stats, not a step-by-step guide to sourcing Eggs or Jotun puffs, so treat any claim about where to farm either ingredient as unconfirmed until checked elsewhere. What is confirmed is the station tier: a level 5 Cauldron is a mid-to-late upgrade path, consistent with this being a Mistlands-tier food rather than an early-game recipe.
How It Stacks Up
The wiki's Notes section makes two direct comparisons, and both are worth quoting rather than paraphrasing, since the exact wording is the evidence:
"Mushroom omelette is more time and resource-intensive than Salad to produce, but provides more health and stamina."
"While the mushroom omelette provides slightly lower bonuses than Fish 'n' bread, the process of catching Anglerfish is relatively tedious and time-consuming."
Neither Salad's nor Fish 'n' bread's own health/stamina/duration numbers appear in this source, so this article can't put a hard number next to "more" or "slightly lower" — that comparison is undocumented here beyond the wiki's own qualitative wording, and should be read as a direction, not a margin. What the source does establish clearly is the trade-off shape: Mushroom Omelette sits above Salad on power but below it on convenience, and just under Fish 'n' bread on power but well above it on convenience, since a Cauldron recipe doesn't require fishing up an Anglerfish first.
The Duration in Context
The infobox lists duration as 1,500 seconds. Converted to a unit you'd actually plan around: 1,500 ÷ 60 = 25 minutes — long enough to cover most single biome excursions or a full boss fight without needing to re-eat mid-encounter.
The healing rate is listed as 3 hp per tick, but this source does not specify how long a "tick" lasts in seconds, so the total hit points regenerated across the full 25-minute buff can't be computed from this data alone — that figure is undocumented in this source, and should not be estimated from a tick length pulled from elsewhere. What can be stated plainly: healing from food only applies while your current health sits below the new, food-boosted maximum, so a character already at full health for part of the 25 minutes won't bank the full regeneration total regardless of what the per-tick rate works out to over time.
Practical tips
- 28 health, 85 stamina, 1,500 seconds (25 min) — the full stat line, straight from the infobox.
- Cook it at a level 5 Cauldron with 3 Eggs and 3 Jotun puffs.
- Teleportable — you don't need a portal-free supply run to carry a stock of these.
- Costlier than Salad, slightly weaker than Fish 'n' bread — per the wiki's own wording, not a numeric comparison.
- 1,500 seconds = 25 minutes (1,500 ÷ 60), long enough for most single outings.
- Tick length in seconds, and Egg/Jotun puffs sourcing, aren't covered by this source — treat both as unconfirmed until checked elsewhere.
Running your own Valheim server
A Mistlands-tier recipe like this one assumes a base that's already stocked with a level 5 Cauldron and a steady supply of Eggs and Jotun puffs — infrastructure that's easiest to keep running when the world itself never goes offline. A gamever Valheim server keeps that Cauldron, your farm, and your food stores live for up to 10 players without depending on one person hosting from their own PC. One-click backups protect the base you built to get this far, and automatic updates keep everyone on the same patch without manual syncing.
Conclusion
Mushroom Omelette is a Mistlands-tier Cauldron food — level 5 Cauldron, 3 Egg + 3 Jotun puffs — that delivers +28 health, +85 stamina, 1,500 seconds (25 minutes, from 1,500 ÷ 60) of duration, and 3 hp of healing per tick. The wiki places it above Salad on power but behind it on convenience, and just under Fish 'n' bread on power while skipping the Anglerfish grind entirely — both comparisons are the source's own wording, since neither dish's exact numbers appear in this data. The tick length behind the 3 hp/tick figure, and sourcing routes for Eggs and Jotun puffs themselves, are undocumented here and worth checking separately before you plan a farming run or a precise healing budget around them.
