I often forget how different harvestables can be processed, so it would be helpful to have an option in-game where I can see the available ways I can process something based on how I've processed it before. E.g. that certain items can be turned to juice, cheese, etc. so I don't need to use the wiki as often.

So like how you can look at a processor to see what it can proccess, but the other way around?

Maybe this idea could be implemented with tiny icons by each ingredient so it's easy to see at a glance. Or have an in-game quick reference sheet that lists processes and basic ingredient types? There was an RPG I can't remember right now that had a button dedicated to a reference sheet for elemental weaknesses, status effects, and other battle info that I initially thought was a bit silly but realized later it was really handy because I could hold a button to check things quick and then release the button and get back to business. I'm not sure Pacha needs a dedicated button like that but maybe a quick-check sheet immediately accessible on the menu page or the option to map it to a button would be nice.

The processing collections menu that shows all the processes you've used could totally do that- click one to open a window showing what can be used and with what processor to get this item.
But I feel like adding icons in-inventory near the items would get too cluttered... I'd much rather a button to either press to see what you can use on a specific item, or to toggle while it's held for those icons on all items in open inventories
