Oogie Boogie’s got quite a collection of chaotic and tricky tasks for you to tackle before he’s willing to join your village in Disney Dreamlight Valley. One of the more complex missions you’ll face is figuring out how to make Snake and Spider Stew.

There aren’t any snakes or spiders in the valley, so you’re essentially working with nothing when attempting to figure out how to cook up this recipe. You’ve got to make and deliver it to Oogie Boogie if you want to progress, so here’s how to make Snake and Spider Stew in Disney Dreamlight Valley.

To make Snake and Spider Stew so you can get one step closer to unlocking Oogie Boogie, you have to solve the riddle located inside his lair to determine the correct ingredients to use. The riddle says:

Substitute Snake and Spider Stew,

First eggs, just a few

Then something mushy and soft to chew

And last: a stand-in for snakes will do.

Next to the riddle, you’ll find a bubbling green cauldron you can cook in, and a table packed with odd ingredients. The items available for you to use include a Mushy Banana, Glowing Green Candy, Oogie Boogie’s Eggs, Sour Milk, Burlap Sack of Peanuts, and Super Salty Seaweed.

The second line of the riddle directly tells you to use Eggs, so you know the first ingredient is Oogie Boogie’s Eggs. Although it mentions multiple, you only want to toss in one for this recipe.

The third line calls for something “mushy and soft to chew.” Out of the available options, only the Mushy Banana matches this description. And finally, the last line tasks you with finding “a stand-in for snakes.” You need something long, squiggly, and somewhat reminiscent of a snake, which is why the final ingredient is Super Salty Seaweed.

With the riddle now decoded, you know the recipe for Snake and Spider Stew requires:

  • One Super Salty Seaweed
  • One of Oogie Boogie’s Eggs
  • One Mushy Banana

The name of this dish is quite misleading, so it can be tricky to find the correct ingredients to use here. It’s also a quest-only dish, which means it’s extra precise and finicky to make.

For most regular dishes, you can toss in an extra ingredient or two and still achieve the same result, but for this one, precision is key. Stick to only using one Seaweed, one Egg, and one Banana to successfully cook it.

You can make Snake and Spider Stew by mixing together one Super Salty Seaweed, one of Oogie Boogie’s Eggs, and one Mushy Banana inside Oogie Boogie’s lair. Toss one of each item into the bubbling green cauldron to cook up this dish and deliver it to Oogie Boogie once it’s made.

With this key quest task now complete, you’ve officially checked off one component of Oogie Boogie’s unlock quests, getting you one step closer to recruiting him as a valley villager. While working through all of his missions, make sure you also remember to unlock Zero, an exclusive Companion only available through this questline.
