Is there a bug with the frog legs recipe?

Hey. 

I've owned the Sims 3 for years now and I don't remember ever being able to cook the frog legs recipe. 

My current sim got the recipe in France and leaned it (he is level 8 in cooking) and he has frogs that he caught both in his inventory and in the fridge, along with garlic both places also. 

But every time I try to select Frog legs via the fridge menu, it is just greyed out. 

I've spent so much time trying to figure this out that the game isn't even fun anymore. 

My sim has a task in France now where he's supposed to bring someone there frog legs servings (I think... The translations are so bad!) so now I'm stuck. 

Can someone explain this and present a solution?

    Good evening Nonna1978 I think you need to fish for frogs. If it's grayed out, it means you don't have all the ingredients to cook frog legs. Otherwise, buy a new stove or reset your Sims and see if it works. I had a case like this, but I didn't have all the ingredients. Hopefully this can help you.

  • By chance you don't have any shop from fridge mods installed do you? If so, that mod makes it so you can't buy ingredients from the fridge. You have to go grocery shopping. 

    If not, did you hover over the bubble and see if it says anything?

     

    Edit: Your image answered the above question.

    It looks like you don't have all the ingredients required. And I believe this is one of the recipes you have to go fish for.

    No I don't have any mods on my games but where I had a case like this a few days ago I asked my sim to cook and prepare a recipe he stood in front of his fridge without moving it was while looking at the recipe that was supposed to prepare he didn't have all the ingredients neither in his inventory nor in his fridge. I reset my sims as well as the cook. My sims is level 10 in cooking

    Good evening Nonna1978 Good evening Gracey Manors In response to Gracey Manor, yes, I had replaced my fridge in my Sim's home. Speaking of the frog legs recipe mission, my Sim had caught them before buying the book and then making the recipe at Base Camp. For the frog legs recipe mission, you have to catch them in the pond in France and then go get the garlic in one of the gardens. I think you should have cooked the frog legs at Base Camp in the adventure destination in France first.

    My apologies if the translation is poor. My French translation into English by Google is poor.
