I'm sure we will be posting a complete guide to stews but it may have to wait a little bit. Meanwhile there are 2 things that can cause it to say unfinished stew.

For most edible stews, you will need
Click to reveal..
3 herbs; fresh water and food from the food bin.


Click to reveal..
If you have a mix of 3 different herbs, that relates to puzzle 11. This is a special stew and likely will not be solved until the game is well under way. You will have to solve puzzles 3; 7; & 12 first. You also have to have some advanced levels in certain fields.

I have been having trouble getting my villagers to eat stews.

I've made at least 4 different stews successfully earlier today (so I know what needs to be done), but now they just won't eat. The message I'm getting is "unfinished stew". There definitely IS boiling water, 3 herbs, and something from the food bin.

I wonder if it has something to do with my completed puzzles. I just finished puzzle 7, and when I make someone use that, they carry the item to the stew, not to the food bin. When I get the message that it's unfinished, I can still take something from the food bin. When I click on the pot, I don't get a "x more herbs needed" message.

I cannot empty out the water, and have had a "water must be boiling" message a few times. So I've done that part again, added 3 more herbs, more food, and tried it all over again (basically doing everything except filling the pot with water, because the water is already there). Every time, the villager is happy to mix (if there were already too many herbs, I'd expect they'd say so), but once mixed, and food added, they refuse to eat, saying "unfinished stew".

After closing the game down and reopening, the pot is now empty. I make a stew using all the correct ingredients, and they still refuse to eat, saying the stew is unfinished.

Just noticed, my child is also now carrying mushrooms straight to the stew, not to the food bin.

I have a feeling it's getting mixed up about exactly what IS in the stew, as it will now allow me to just keep adding more and more ingredients.

I will not give you the straight point-blank answer; but I will give you a couple of hints:

Click to reveal..
The action line for your villagers says the stew needs something nutrious -- what is nutrious? Think about it, the item has been in every VV game. Try taking your villager around to various places that one will find nutrious things.
