The recipe for Button Stew is one Button Mushroom and one Carrot. Unfortunately, as of Nov. 11, 2025, this recipe is bugged and cannot be cooked as intended. All Wishblossom Ranch recipes involving Button Mushrooms are bugged, so although the ingredients are correct, the dish you get from cooking them won’t be what you want.

Although this recipe cannot be cooked at the time of writing, it will likely be fixed in a future update. Issues like this one tend to be patched in major updates, and since the next one is slated for Dec. 10, 2025, we can likely expect a fix to come with the update, if not sooner.

Button Stew is a highly beloved dish among horses, especially Khan, whom you unlock during the Crystal Caverns: Glamour Gulch quest. It’s tough to build your bond with him without it, as you likely won’t be able to give him all three of his favorite daily items.

As soon as this dish can be properly cooked, we’ll provide an update here. For now, though, all you can do is stock up on the ingredients for it and wait for the devs to release a fix.

Button Mushrooms are the main ingredient in this dish, and they can be found growing all around the wild in Glamour Gulch. This includes the Runway River, Paisley Park, Modish Marsh, and Haute Plateau areas.

This item appears as a small, circular, bright yellow clump of mushrooms. The tops are dotted with plus signs of different colors, including purple, blue, red, and more colors. They stand out quite well againt the dark red and black color pallete in Glamour Gulch, making them easy to find once you know where to look.

As you hunt around for this item, be sure to check inside all caves in Glamour Gulch. There are quite a few, and I’ve found many Button Mushrooms hidden away in them, so it’s always worth checking to ensure you don’t miss any.

Carrots are a crop you must purchse, plant, water, grow, and harvest yourself. You can buy seeds from Goofy’s Stall in the Peaceful Meadow biome. They cost 10 Star Coins to buy, and roughly 15 minutes to grow. The growth time is cut down to about 13 minutes if you plant them in the Peaceful Meadow region.

If you’re looking for another dish horses enjoy, you might try cooking Beet Sugar Sculpture. And once you’re done cooking, there’s plenty more to tackle around Wishblossom Ranch, like feeding Sweet Bees, getting Old Braided Ropecompleting The Skunk Rebellion, and acquiring all horse mount customization options.
