Slime is the sticky loot left behind by the slimes of the mines, and also the harvest of a farm's Slime Hutch. It sells for almost nothing, but it is a key crafting material. The Oil Maker, the Slime Incubator, the Slime Egg-Press, the Cork Bobber, Wild Bait and Monster Musk all call for it. A stack of ninety-nine also fills one option in the Adventurer's Bundle. As a gift, nearly every villager hates it, so it belongs in crafting rather than in anyone's hands.
The in-game description reads: A shimmering, gelatinous glob with no smell.
Production
Slimes in the mines drop Slime when defeated, so every trip through the early floors adds to the pile.
A Slime Hutch on the farm makes Slime far faster. Robin builds the hutch, and the slimes inside it need water rather than food. With the troughs filled, they leave Slime Balls on the floor, and breaking each ball releases a heap of Slime. A hutch with a full house of slimes yields dozens of Slime a day.
Krobus also sells Slime in his shop in The Sewers on Mondays. He offers it cheaply, though only a limited amount each week.
Uses
A single Slime sells for a pittance, so even a full stack is pocket change. Every piece is worth far more when it goes into crafting.
Fifty Slime go into an Oil Maker, the machine that turns Truffles into Truffle Oil. A Slime Incubator, for hatching slimes outdoors, takes one hundred. The Slime Egg-Press also needs one hundred Slime for each Slime Egg it presses. Those eggs hatch new slimes, so a busy hutch can keep refilling itself.
Fishing gear uses Slime too. Ten Slime go into a Cork Bobber, a tackle that slightly enlarges the fishing bar. Five Slime help make a batch of Wild Bait, which gives a chance of hooking two fish at once.
Mixing thirty Slime with thirty Bat Wings makes Monster Musk. Spraying it doubles the monsters on each floor of the mines for a short time, which speeds up farming Monster Loot. The recipe is the reward for the Wizard's "Prismatic Jelly" special order.
The Adventurer's Bundle in the Boiler Room of the Community Center accepts ninety-nine Slime as one of its options.
Crafting Slime with the other materials below makes these items.

Notes
Almost every villager hates Slime. The Wizard takes it more calmly than the rest, but it is still a poor present for him.
Gathering Slime from a hutch is far easier than hunting for it in the mines, though the residents still bite. A Slime Charmer Ring protects against slime attacks and makes the morning collection painless.
Before a hutch exists, Krobus's Monday stock is the quickest way to cover a crafting recipe without a trip into the mines.
