Suspicious Stew Wiki Guide

This Minecraft tutorial explains how to craft suspicious stew with screenshots and step-by-step instructions.

In Minecraft, suspicious stew is one of the many food items that you can make (but it is not available in the Creative Inventory menu). Suspicious stew is a special food item that will replenish your food meter as well as give you a status effect for a short time. The status effect will vary depending on the flower that was used to craft the suspicious stew.

Let’s explore how to make suspicious stew.

Where to find Suspicious Stew in Creative Mode

Minecraft Java Edition (PC/Mac)

Here is where you can find suspicious stew in the Creative Inventory menu:

Platform	Version(s)	Creative Menu Location
Java Edition (PC/Mac)	1.19.3 – 1.20	Food & Drinks

• Platform is the platform that applies.
• Version(s) is the Minecraft version numbers where the item can be found in the menu location listed (we have tested and confirmed this version number).
• Creative Menu Location is the location of the item in the Creative Inventory menu.

Status Effects for Suspicious Stew

Depending on the flower used to craft it (there are 13 different crafting recipes), suspicious stew can give you a different status effect when eaten and the duration of the status effect is different between Java Edition and Bedrock Edition:

Type of Suspicious Stew	Flower to Use	Status Effect	Duration of Status Effect
			Java Edition	Bedrock Edition
Suspicious Stew (Saturation)	Dandelion Blue Orchid	Saturation	under 1 second	under 1 second
Suspicious Stew (Night Vision)	Poppy	Night Vision	5 seconds	4 seconds
Suspicious Stew (Fire Resistance)	Allium	Fire Resistance	4 seconds	2 seconds

TIP: Starting in Java Edition 1.14.4, suspicious stew made from poppies now gives you Night Vision. In Java Edition 1.14 – 1.14.3, it gave you the Speed effect.

How to craft Suspicious Stew in Survival Mode

1. Open the Crafting Menu

First, open your crafting table so that you have the 3×3 crafting grid that looks like this:

2. Add Items to make Suspicious Stew

In the crafting menu, you should see a crafting area that is made up of a 3×3 crafting grid. To make suspicious stew, place 1 red mushroom, 1 brown mushroom, 1 bowl, and 1 flower in the 3×3 crafting grid.

When making a suspicious stew, it is important that the brown mushroom, red mushroom, bowl and flower are placed in the exact pattern as the image below. In the first row, there should be 1 brown mushroom in the first box, 1 red mushroom in the second box and a flower in the third box. For the flower, you can use dandelion, poppy, blue orchid, allium, azure bluet, red tulip, orange tulip, white tulip, pink tulip, oxeye daisy, cornflower, lily of the valley or wither rose (the status effect given will vary based on the flower used):

 

In this example, we will use a dandelion as the flower. In the second row, there should be 1 bowl in the middle box. This is the Minecraft crafting recipe for suspicious stew with the Saturation status effect.

Now that you have filled the crafting area with the correct pattern, the suspicious stew will appear in the box to the right.

3. Move the Suspicious Stew to Inventory

Once you have crafted a suspicious stew, you need to move the new item to your inventory.

Congratulations, you have made suspicious stew in Minecraft!
