Where the reagents come from
Fangtooth Herring. No recipe, Blizzard quest reward or dungeon journal drop in our game data produces it. Also a required reagent in 2 other recipes (2 Cooking); Pickled Fangtooth takes the most, 1 per craft.
Essence of Undeath. Made with Transmute: Water to Undeath (Alchemy, Classic Alchemy) from 1 
Essence of Water. At lowest listed prices that makes one Essence of Undeath for 51 gold81 silver, against 53 gold70 silver listed. Also a required reagent in 46 other recipes (16 Blacksmithing, 7 Tailoring, 5 Enchanting and 4 Jewelcrafting); the most per craft: Shroud of Forbidden Magic (Tailoring, 100 per craft), Death's Gamble (Blacksmithing, 40 per craft), Frostwyrm's Frigid Stare (Jewelcrafting, 40 per craft), Frostwyrm's Icy Gaze (Jewelcrafting, 40 per craft) and Necrotic Gown (Tailoring, 40 per craft).
Reading these numbers
At current lowest listed prices the 2 reagents for one craft of Haunted Herring cost 53 gold75 silver. Most of that is Essence of Undeath - 1 at 53 gold70 silver each, 53 gold70 silver, 99.9% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.
Break-even is 56 gold57 silver per craft, 11 gold31 silver per item at 5 items a craft - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item has no current Auction House listing to compare it against, so the estimate above is left unknown rather than guessed.
Costs use each reagent’s lowest listed price; the estimate is the crafted item’s lowest listed price, times the items one craft makes, minus those reagents and Blizzard’s 5% sale cut. Listings are asking prices, not sales. Recalculated every snapshot and left blank rather than guessed when a price is missing. How we estimate crafting profit →
