Orange spice is one of four spices used on stew to make spicy stew. Partial completion of the Freeing Evil Dave subquest of Recipe for Disaster is required to obtain the spices in Evil Dave's Basement of Doom in Edgeville. The simplest method to obtain these spices is to send your cat to catch Hell-Rats, which will yield between 1 to 4 doses of any of the spice colours. Another option is to kill the Hell-Rat Behemoth in the north-western room, which will always drop a 4 dose of the orange spice. It is possible to combine lower doses of the orange spice on each other to create 4 dose shakers. Once all doses are used it becomes an empty spice shaker.
Spicy stews containing orange spice can temporarily boost or drain the stats of Cooking, Crafting, Construction, Firemaking, Fletching, Runecraft, and Smithing. It is possible to use 1 to 3 doses on a stew yielding, -1 to +1, -3 to +3 and -5 to +5 respectively. Orange spice is considered the most useful due to its ability to boost Runecraft up to 5 levels and is the only way to visibly boost Firemaking +2 or more.
Orange spicy stew is a common way for players to complete the Karamja Elite Diary with 86 Runecraft and build various high level objects in their POH.
