Use the math combinations/patterns to get all of the stew recipies. The numbers are from the top left herb running clockwise 1 through 6:
111 222 333 444 555 666
112 113 114 115 116
221 223 224 225 226
331 332 334 335 336
441 442 443 445 446
551 552 553 554 556
123 124 125 126
134 135 136
145 146
156
234 235 236
245 246
256
345 346
356
456

I think that's all of them??? I haven't logged what each one does. The Stats screen is tallying them for ranking too.

The best villagers to use to make a stew are those blessed runners, but I usually set three different villagers out at the same time to bring the herbs. (Note that if you try to train a doctor by dragging him to an herb during the time your stew is waiting for herbs, then they will bring herbs instead and will mess up your recipie)

Actually, there are a great deal more recipes...
If you look at the herbs as a mathmatical equation, then you can have 6 different herbs as number 1, 6 as number 2, and 6 as number 3. So that is 6*6*6=216 different recipes...

Actually SVE , tou are much closer than KRock to having the right answer on this one. You just left out 661 662 663 664 665. KRock, your calculation would ume that the numbers had to be in a specific order, but here 223, 232 and 322 are all the same thing, so there are only 56 combinations.
