Is there a max level for enhancing dishes?

was wondering

Lv10 for regular meals, and boss ones are already maxed

It's a strange system. I have spend so many fishes on upgrades. I have multiple dishes in lvl 10, but then you research a new dish that costs more in lvl 1????
Why did I just catch and catch and catch this fish to upgrade it, but then 1 hour later I get a lvl 1 dish that is worth x100 of a lvl 10 dish? Makes 0 sense. Why did I spend time upgrading the dish, when it became utterly irrelevant 1 hour later?

Gist of it is to encourage you to keep getting better ingredients until you get the best, not to worry too much about enhancing the early game stuff. In fact, some of the early game recipes are traps as they make you waste Ingredients you might need in the late game.
