00:00Cooking in Disney Dreamlight Valley requires you to collect all sorts of different ingredients
00:11and combine them at a stove to create meals.
00:14Experimenting with different combinations can unlock recipes that you can then cook
00:18again and again.
00:19Once you've cooked a meal, you can eat it to restore energy, give it to a villager to
00:23improve your friendship level, or sell it to Goofy for Star Coins.
00:27Ingredients are scattered across Dreamlight Valley, although most are exclusive to a few
00:32biomes.
00:33So you'll need to forage, harvest, and go fishing all over, or seek out Goofy's stall
00:38to buy seeds.
00:39More specialist ingredients such as milk, butter, and eggs can only be bought from the
00:44Shea's Remy restaurant.
00:46You'll also need fuel for the stove, so make sure that you're doing plenty of mining to
00:50gather up some coal too.
00:53When you're cooking, you can throw up to five different things into the pot to create a
00:56dish, but the recipe that comes out at the end might not use all of those ingredients.
01:02Recipes that do use all five ingredients are rated with five stars and tend to be very
01:07valuable and restore lots of energy, but it doesn't necessarily mean that they're the
01:11best dishes, particularly if those ingredients are hard to get.
01:17Keep an eye out for the recipe books too, as reading them will instantly unlock a new
01:22recipe for you to try.
01:24If you really want to get into cooking, then we'd recommend visiting the Ratatouille realm
01:29via the Dreamcastle as soon as possible.
01:31Remy will teach you lots of recipes before he even decides to come live in Dreamlike
01:36Valley.
01:37However, once you've gotten the house back in the valley, he'll then reopen the Shea's
01:41Remy restaurant, giving you access to new ingredients and new recipes.
01:46Remember to check the meal section of the collection menu to see what dishes you might
01:50be able to make while experimenting.
01:52And use the recipe and auto-fill features on the stove to save you from having to manually
01:57add ingredients every time.
02:00Stoves are capable of pulling ingredients and coal directly from storage, so you definitely
02:04don't need to have lots of food items taking up all your space in your backpack.
02:09With that in mind, here are our top 10 recipes, in no particular order.
02:13Adrenaline Pickled Herring This restores at least 2,100 energy and isn't
02:18really valuable enough to sell, so it's great to have in your inventory for long expeditions.
02:25Soufflé This is a 4-star recipe that's worth over
02:281,000 coins and restores well over 2,000 energy.
02:34Bouillabaisse The ingredients for bouillabaisse are easy
02:37to get once you've unlocked Dazzle Beach, and it restores at least 2,000 energy.
02:43Grilled Fish Entree It's easy to make, and the ingredients are
02:47easy to get from the starting plaza and peaceful meadow areas.
02:51Cook lots and sell them to Goofy for easy Disney Dreamlike Valley Star Coins.
02:56Lemon Garlic Swordfish This 3-star recipe restores over 3,500 energy.
03:03The ingredients aren't easy to get, but it's a good recipe to have ready for energy or
03:07to sell.
03:08Pan-Fried Anglerfish This is one of the most valuable dishes in
03:12the game, selling for 2,500 coins, despite being only a 4-star recipe.
03:17It does require rare ingredients and is definitely one to sell and not eat.
03:22Poached Basil Buttered Sturgeon Much like the anglerfish, this is another
03:264-star dish needing rare ingredients, but it's worth at least 2,200 coins and restores
03:32at least 4,900 energy.
03:34Fruit Salad As one of the simplest and easiest meals in
03:37Disney Dreamlike Valley, Fruit Salad is a reliable option for quick energy, especially
03:42during the early game.
03:44Caramel Apples Once you've unlocked Dazzle Beach and can
03:47grow Sugar Cane, use it with apples to create candied apples that grant even more energy
03:51than a fruit salad for only one more ingredient that's really easy to grow.
03:56Porridge with Fruits Porridge is an already simple dish requiring
03:59just wheat and milk to cook, but adding a single fruit, such as raspberry or apple,
04:05massively increases the energy that it will restore.
04:08Coming up we're going to go through a list of all the Disney Dreamlike Valley cooking
04:11recipes that we've discovered so far, along with the ingredients needed.
04:15You can view the entire assortment of 164 dishes under the Meals section of the collection
