How to learn new Recipes for Meals in Disney Dreamlight Valley

Learn Recipes by Cooking

It is possible to learn a Recipe by putting together the correct Ingredients experimentally. If you open your Meals Collection menu, you can see all the available Meals to be made, but the Ingredients for all of the locked ones will remain hidden. Although the Ingredients are hidden, you can still see how many Ingredients are required for them, making it easier to guess which ones you will need, such as French Fries: a potato with possibly a tomato for the ketchup.

Once you collect the Ingredients you believe are necessary for the Meal, head to a cooking station and put them together. The best way to learn through this method is to head to Chez Remy restaurant. Remy will do different emotes when you are creating a good combination or bad combination of ingredients. You can also open your cooking History to see past combinations you have already tried and see what you can do better moving forward. When you find a new Meal, it will be revealed on the screen that the new Recipe has been added to your Collection.

Gather the resources for the Recipe

In your Crafting Collection, unlike the Meals Collection, it will tell you all the Ingredients needed for each Recipe, even ones you haven't yet unlocked. You can even switch over to the Ingredients Collection to see the locations of each Ingredient as well, making it easy to track them down for Crafting and learn new Recipes.

Once you find and collect the resources needed for specific Recipes, they will be unlocked in your Collection and become available on your Crafting Table. You should also see a notification pop up on the right side of your screen when they do. As you unlock new locations and discover more materials and resources you will easy learn new Crafting Recipes for your Collection, so don't always worry about going out of your way to track them down.
