Disney Dreamlight Valley recipes list and how to cook them

Disney Dreamlight Valley recipes are crucial to success in the life sim as you’ll need to cook up some tasty grub to earn Dreamlight, make friends, and keep your stamina up. With over 170 recipes to discover since new festive recipes were added back in December 2022, it can be hard to keep on top of them all. Luckily, we’re here to help you decipher the best meals on the menu.

The way to the hearts of all the Dreamlight Valley characters can be found through their stomachs, but it’s equally important to keep yourself well-fed, too. Some Dreamlight Valley recipes – like the bouillabaisse recipe – offer more stamina than others, and while some can be obtained from completing quests, such as Remy’s ratatouille recipe and Minnie’s picnic favourites: crudites and fish sandwiches, others are unlocked by trying different ingredients together. To make it easier to get the most nutritious meals, we’ve compiled them all below, with five-star recipes offering the most energy.

When you’re not rustling something up for a specific challenge or gift, one of the most important things to bear in mind when cooking Disney Dreamlight Valley recipes is that they vary in use. When making them to increase your own energy levels, you’re better off cooking four or even five-star recipes for the biggest energy boost. These will also sell for more money at Goofy’s stalls. However, they also require more ingredients – the number of ingredients directly correlates to the star-rating – some of which you might have to purchase to begin with, so weigh up the best options for your current needs – and the ingredients available to you.

The full recipes list is below, sorted by star-rating and course, so you can quickly source those easy five-star Dreamlight Valley recipes. Update two brings a fridge-load of delicious new recipes to Dreamlight Valley. You’ll find every new recipe in the list below, and we’ll be sure to add any that might be included in the next Dreamlight Valley update, too!

Food groups and ingredients

You might see a recipe in which you can include “any sweet”, so you need to know what this includes. This doesn’t quite match up with the list in-game, either. In the in-game ingredient collection list, for example, vanilla is listed under spices and herbs, while sugarcane is listed under grains. In recipes, however, both are considered a sweet. Anything not included below is a separate entity, for example despite being dairy, cheese cannot replace milk in a recipe.

• Vegetables: Asparagus, bell pepper, carrot, corn, cucumber, eggplant, leek, lettuce, okra, onion, potato, pumpkin, spinach, tomato, zucchini
• Fruit: Apple, banana, blueberry, cherry, coconut, gooseberry, lemon, raspberry
• Sweet: Cocoa bean, sugarcane, vanilla
• Dairy: Butter, milk
• Shellfish: Clam, crab, lobster, oyster, scallop, shrimp
• Fish: Anglerfish, bass, bream, carp, catfish, cod, fugu, herring, kingfish, lancetfish, perch, pike, rainbow trout, salmon, sole, squid, swordfish, tilapia, tuna, walleye, white sturgeon
• Spice: Basil, garlic, ginger, mushroom, oregano
• Grains: Canola, rice, soya, wheat

How to cook in Disney Dreamlight Valley

Cooking in Disney Dreamlight Valley is remarkably simple, especially with all the above recipes at your disposal. All you need is a stove, some coal, and the required ingredients – you don’t even need to have unlocked the recipe.

There are actually a few stoves available to you in order to cook up your Dreamlight Valley recipes. As well as receiving one in your house in an early quest, you can use the stoves in Remy’s restaurant, characters’ houses, the Elephant Graveyard in Sunlit Plateau, and any realms with a stove.

At the stove, simply drag and drop the ingredients from your inventory into the pot, and the fuel will be added automatically, even if it’s in your home inventory. You can also autofill any recipes you’ve already unlocked by selecting the recipe from the list and clicking autofill – just as long as you have all the ingredients on your person.

Now you have all the instructions for cooking in the Disney game, you can start gathering all the ingredients you need. Our Dreamlight Valley guide has some tips to help with that. You’ll no doubt need increased storage for this, so you should upgrade your Dreamlight Valley house while you’re at it, and make sure you’ll fully equipped to get by in one of the best PC games of 2022.
