Cook in Dreamlight Valley
Cooking in Disney Dreamlight Valley requires you to collect all sorts of ingredients. From fish and fruit to herbs and grains, you can combine various resources in your stockpot to create tasty meals.
Experimenting with different ingredients can unlock recipes that you can then cook over and over, provided you have the required materials.

Once you have cooked a meal, you can consume it to restore your character’s energy, gift it to Dreamlight Valley villagers to increase your relationship level, or sell it to Goofy for some Star Coins.
Cooking ingredients in Dreamlight Valley are scattered across the open world. However, most are exclusive to only a few biomes, so you will need to forage, fish, and harvest all over the land or seek out Goofy’s stalls for seeds.
Specialized ingredients like milk, butter, and eggs can only be bought from the Chef Remy restaurant in the Plaza.

You will also need fuel for the stove you are using for every meal you cook, so make sure you are doing plenty of mining to collect coal.
While cooking, try out different combinations of ingredients at the stove and see what you come up with. You can throw up to five different ingredients into the pot to create a dish, but the recipe that comes out at the end might not utilize all the ingredients you’ve mixed.Â
