How to Craft Mushroom Stew in Minecraft
Mushroom Stew restores 6 hunger points. It cannot be stacked but is easy to make in mushroom biomes.
Overview
Mushroom Stew restores 6 hunger points. It cannot be stacked but is easy to make in mushroom biomes. Mushroom Stew uses a shapeless recipe, so the ingredients can go in any cells of the grid as long as all of them are present. A Crafting Table gives you the full 3x3 grid, which you need for any recipe larger than 2x2. You can craft one from four planks, and most bases keep one near the furnaces.
The recipe was added in Minecraft Alpha and still works the same way in version 1.21. Each craft yields a single Mushroom Stew.
The materials come together from a few sources: you will be working with red mushroom (found in dark areas and mushroom islands), brown mushroom (found in dark areas), and bowl (craft from planks). If any of those are not already in your stores, gather them first, because the craft itself takes only a moment once everything is in the grid. With the ingredients on hand and a Crafting Table placed, Mushroom Stew is one of the quicker things to add to your inventory.
