Mud

Mud is as viscous as it is filthy, more of an unwanted side effect than anything you'd want to try to use for constructive purposes, but that's the genius of it. Nobody expects mud to be valuable, and there it is, all over the place, just waiting to be gathered!

Mud is very common, making it easy to identify early on. Mud is used in many starting recipes (along with Dirt, Clay, & Rock). As with dirt it will also be useful through the entire game.
