00:00Cooking in Disney Dreamlight Valley requires you to collect all sorts of different ingredients
00:10and combine them at a stove to create meals. Experimenting with different combinations can
00:16unlock recipes that you can then cook again and again. Once you've cooked a meal, you can eat
00:21it to restore energy, give it to a villager to improve your friendship level or sell it to Goofy
00:25for Star Coins. Ingredients are scattered across Dreamlight Valley, although most are exclusive
00:32to a few biomes, so you'll need to forage, harvest and go fishing all over or seek out
00:37Goofy's stall to buy seeds. More specialist ingredients such as milk, butter and eggs can
00:43only be bought from the Shays Remy restaurant. You'll also need fuel for the stove, so make
00:49sure that you're doing plenty of mining to gather up some coal too. When you're cooking,
00:53you can throw up to 5 different things into the pot to create a dish, but the recipe that
00:58comes out at the end might not use all of those ingredients. Recipes that do use all 5 ingredients
01:04are rated with 5 stars and tend to be very valuable and restore lots of energy, but it doesn't
01:10necessarily mean they're the best dishes, particularly if those ingredients are hard
01:16to get. Keep an eye out for the recipe books too, as reading them will instantly unlock a new
01:22recipe for you to try. If you really want to get into cooking, then we'd recommend visiting the
01:27Ratatouille realm via the Dreamcastle as soon as possible. Remy will teach you lots of recipes
01:33before he even decides to come live in Dreamlight Valley. However, once you've gotten the house back
01:38in the valley, he'll then reopen the Shays Remy restaurant, giving you access to new ingredients and
01:45new recipes. Remember to check the meal section of the collection menu to see what dishes you might be
01:50able to make while experimenting, and use the recipe and auto-fill features on the stove to save you
01:56from having to manually add ingredients every time. Stoves are capable of pulling ingredients and coal
02:02directly from storage, so you definitely don't need to have lots of food items taking up all your
02:06space in your backpack. With that in mind, here are our top 10 recipes, in no particular order.
02:13Adrenaline Pickled Herring. This restores at least 2100 energy, and isn't really valuable enough to
02:19sell, so it's great to have in your inventory for long expeditions. Souffle. This is a 4 star recipe
02:27that's worth over 1000 coins and restores well over 2000 energy. Booyah Bays. The ingredients for
02:35Booyah Bays are easy to get once you've unlocked Dazzle Beach, and it restores at least 2000 energy.
02:42Grilled Fish Entree. It's easy to make, and the ingredients are easy to get from the starting plaza,
02:49and peaceful meadow areas. Cook lots and sell them to Goofy for easy Disney Dreamlight Valley Star
02:55Coins. Lemon Garlic Swordfish. This 3 star recipe restores over 3500 energy. The ingredients aren't
03:04easy to get, but it's a good recipe to have ready for energy or to sell. Pan Fried Angular Fish. This is
03:10one of the most valuable dishes in the game, selling for 2500 coins, despite being only a 4 star recipe. It
03:17does require rare ingredients, and is definitely one to sell and not eat. Poached Basil Buttered
03:23Sturgeon. Much like the Angler Fish, this is another 4 star dish, needing rare ingredients,
03:29but it's worth at least 2200 coins, and restores at least 4900 energy. Fruit Salad. As one of the
03:36simplest and easiest meals in Disney Dreamlight Valley, Fruit Salad is a reliable option for quick
03:41energy, especially during the early game. Caramel Apples. Once you've unlocked Dazzle Beach and can
03:46grow Sugar Cane, use it with apples to create candied apples that grant even more energy than a
03:51fruit salad for only one more ingredient that's really easy to grow. Porridge with Fruits.
03:57Porridge is an already simple dish requiring just wheat and milk to cook, but adding a single fruit,
04:03such as raspberry or apple, massively increases the energy that it will restore.
04:08Coming up we're going to go through a list of all the Disney Dreamlight Valley cooking recipes that
04:12we've discovered so far, along with the ingredients needed. You can view the entire assortment of 164
04:18dishes under the meal section of the collection menu, and you can experiment with ingredients to see what
04:24else you can create.
