Disney Dreamlight Valley invites you to cultivate a charming valley alongside iconic Disney characters.  While forging friendships and restoring the forgotten land, you’ll also need to keep your energy up with delicious meals. One such dish is Sake Maki, a tantalizing appetizer with a touch of Japanese cuisine. 

This guide delves into everything you need to know about Sake Maki in Dreamlight Valley, from gathering ingredients to perfecting the recipe.

A Taste of Japan in the Valley: What is Sake Maki?

Sake Maki is a traditional Japanese dish consisting of seasoned rice, fresh salmon, and seaweed rolled together.  In Dreamlight Valley, it serves as a 3-star entree, offering a satisfying energy boost for your character’s adventures.  It’s not only delicious but also relatively simple to prepare once you have the necessary ingredients.

Gathering the Bounty: Where to Find Sake Maki Ingredients

To create this delightful dish, you’ll need to acquire three key ingredients:

Rice: This pantry staple can be purchased at Goofy’s Stall in the Glade of Trust.  Goofy’s Stall offers a variety of ingredients for your culinary creations, and rice is readily available from the start of the game.

Seaweed:  This essential ingredient can be found by fishing in any of the freshwater sources within the valley.  Keep an eye out for white ripples on the water’s surface, as these indicate fishing spots.  Seaweed isn’t guaranteed with every catch, so it might take a bit of patience to reel one in.

Salmon:  This prized fish is the star ingredient of Sake Maki. Unfortunately, salmon isn’t readily available in all areas of the valley. You’ll need to unlock access to specific biomes before you can catch this elusive fish. Here’s what you need to know:

Unlocking Fishing Locations: To fish for salmon, you’ll need to unlock the Sunlit Plateau and Frosted Heights biomes. These require 7,000 and 10,000 Dreamlight respectively, a currency earned through completing quests and various activities.

Catching Salmon: Once you have access to the Sunlit Plateau or Frosted Heights, head to any fishing spot and look for white ripples. Casting your line here has a chance of reeling in a salmon.

Tip: Upgrading your fishing rod with Goofy can increase your chances of catching rarer fish like salmon.

Cooking Up a Delight: The Sake Maki Recipe

Once you’ve gathered all the ingredients, head to any cooking station in the valley.  These are located in various restaurants and kitchens throughout the valley. Here’s how to create your Sake Maki masterpiece:

Interact with the Cooking Station: Select the “Cook” option.

Choose the Recipe: Navigate through the recipe list and find Sake Maki.

Combine Ingredients: The cooking station will display the required ingredients. Simply confirm that you have all three (1 Rice, 1 Seaweed, 1 Salmon) and select “Cook.”

Congratulations! You’ve successfully prepared a serving of Sake Maki. The dish will be added to your inventory, ready to be consumed or gifted to friendly residents of the valley.
