Fish Stew is a seafood dish made almost entirely from Crab Pot catches. Willy sends the recipe once the farmer becomes a close friend of his. The stew gives a strong fishing buff that lasts a long time. That makes it a natural meal before a long day at the water. It also restores a lot of energy and health. Almost every villager likes it, including Willy himself.
Recipe
Willy mails the recipe after reaching seven hearts of friendship with him. It is one of several fishing recipes he sends as the friendship grows, along with Escargot and Lobster Bisque.
Cooking a Crayfish with a Mussel, a Periwinkle and a Tomato makes Fish Stew. Three of the four ingredients come from Crab Pots.
Crayfish and Periwinkle live in fresh water, so a Crab Pot placed in a river or a lake catches them. The Mussel lives in salt water. A Crab Pot in the ocean catches it, and Mussels also wash up on the Beach as forage. The Mariner profession stops Crab Pots from catching trash, which raises the chance of each shellfish.
The Tomato is a Summer crop. One plant keeps producing every few days, so a single Summer planting gives plenty of tomatoes to store for later stews. The shellfish come in every season.
These are the ingredients one batch needs.

Effects
Fish Stew restores a large amount of energy and health. It also raises Fishing by three levels for a long stretch of the day. A higher Fishing level makes the catching minigame easier, which helps with fish that keep slipping away.
The buff lasts much longer than the short boosts from cheaper fishing dishes. One bowl in the morning can cover a long fishing session. Eating another dish with a buff replaces it, so plain snacks are better for topping up energy during that time.
Prices
Fish Stew sells for a little less than its four ingredients are worth on their own. Selling it is not worth the effort. Its value lies in the fishing buff and the large energy refill.
Gifts
Fish Stew is a safe liked gift for almost everyone. Among those who like Fish Stew are the older villagers Caroline, Demetrius, Evelyn, George, Jodi, Kent, Lewis, Linus and Pam. The shop owners Clint, Gus, Marnie, Pierre, Robin and Willy share that view, and so do the Dwarf, Sandy and the Wizard. Abigail, Alex, Elliott, Emily, Haley, Harvey, Leah, Maru, Penny, Sam, Sebastian and Shane also like it. The children Jas and Vincent like it too.
Willy dislikes most cooked dishes, so Fish Stew stands out as one of the few he enjoys.
Notes
In tailoring, Fish Stew in the Sewing Machine with Cloth makes a Shirt.
Escargot, Chowder and Lobster Bisque are other fishing dishes with the same long buff. Fish Stew and Lobster Bisque give the bigger bonus of the four.
