The recipe is an item in Koopa Capers. After Luigi enters one of the hidden rooms, he finds a crumpled piece of paper below some blocks under a big spinning question block with a question mark on one of its faces. He remembers that Mario told him that blocks such as that one are good if they have the question mark on the side opposite the Fire Flower and the Starman opposite the "10." Luigi thinks the paper could have some hints as to where Wendy O. Koopa is, but he also thinks the question block could contain a useful item, leaving him unsure as to whether he should grab the paper or hit the block. The reader must solve a puzzle to figure out if the block is good or not. Solving the puzzle indicates the block is good. If Luigi chooses to grab the paper, he goes quickly beneath the suspended blocks and sees that the paper is directly below a Thwomp, causing him to stop. If he backtracks and hits the question block, 10 coins come out of it. Although he catches most of them, three fall to the ground and roll under the cluster of blocks. If he then chooses to retrieve those coins and grab the scrap of paper, he runs beneath the floating blocks and stops at the middle one to grab the paper. However, as he does so, the Thwomp hurtles toward him and crushes him, leading to a Game Over. If he still chooses to get the paper while under the blocks after not hitting the question block, he sticks his foot out under the Thwomp and quickly pulls it away before the Thwomp hits the ground. When the Thwomp starts to rise, Luigi swiftly grabs the paper and runs past the Thwomp. While still under the blocks, he uncrumples the paper, and several coins fall out. After he pockets them, he reads the paper, which says, "Recipe for S—" but the rest of the title is smudged. The recipe is a poem:

Mix one large cup of eye of Thwomp, With two teaspoons of tail of Chomp. Add six hairs from Grand Goomba legs, Season with Ptooey and Spiny Eggs. Sprinkle with powdered Dry Bones toes, Add Firesnake scales until it glows. Simmer in a pool of red hot rocks, Add just one of Boom-Boom's socks. Too many socks and turtles will doze, Until the fragrance leaves their nose. Add seven wands and you are done. Now the seven will act as one.

After reading the recipe, Luigi pockets it and continues searching for Wendy.
