Alright, so today I figured I’d try my hand at making a Blueberry Pie in Dreamlight Valley. Seemed like a cozy kind of thing to cook up.
First things first, I needed the ingredients. The recipe calls for three things: Blueberries, Wheat, and Butter. Simple enough, right?
So, off I went to forage for blueberries. I usually find those bushes over in the Forest of Valor, sometimes up in the Forgotten Lands too. Just walked around a bit, kept an eye out for those blue clusters on the bushes, and picked a handful. Easy peasy.
Next up was Wheat. I remembered I had some seeds. Went back to my little garden patch near the house, dug a few spots, popped the seeds in, and gave them a quick watering. Didn’t take too long for them to sprout up. Harvested those once they were ready. Alternatively, sometimes I just buy it straight from Goofy’s stall in the Peaceful Meadow if I’m feeling lazy or out of seeds.
Last ingredient: Butter. Now, you can’t grow butter, obviously. For that, I had to head over to Remy’s restaurant, Chez Remy. Went inside, straight to the back pantry section where you can buy stuff. Found the Butter on the shelf and bought one. Remy always has the good stuff.
With all three ingredients in my pocket – one Blueberry, one Wheat, and one Butter – I went back to my house. I’ve got a little stove set up in the kitchen there. Walked up to it, opened the cooking menu. Tossed the Blueberry into the pot slot, then the Wheat, and finally the Butter. Needed one of each.
Clicked the ‘Start Cooking’ button. Watched the little animation, pot bubbling away. And boom! Out came a nice looking Blueberry Pie. Smelled good, virtually speaking, of course. A solid 3-star recipe, just like the cookbook says.
Felt pretty good making it myself instead of just finding one. Simple little task, but satisfying to gather everything and cook it up. That’s the process, plain and simple.
