Disney Dreamlight Valley Sesame Balls information

Ingredients for Sesame Balls

To cook Sesame Balls, you’ll need the following five ingredients:

How to gather ingredients

Wheat

Wheat can be grown from Wheat Seeds, which are purchased at Goofy’s Stall in two locations:

1. Peaceful Meadow – Seeds become available after upgrading the stall for the first time. Fully grown wheat is also occasionally sold here.
2. Ancient’s Landing – Seeds are unlocked after the initial repair of Goofy’s Stall.

Ginger

Ginger grows wild in the Forgotten Lands, scattered across unpaved two-by-two spaces. This biome contains exactly 10 Ginger plants at a time, and they respawn shortly after being picked. Make sure to visit the Forgotten Lands daily to gather enough Ginger for your cooking needs.

Rice

Rice is grown from Rice Seeds, available at Goofy’s Stall in the Glade of Trust. These seeds become available after the stall’s initial repair. Fully grown rice is sometimes sold at the stall as well.

Soya

Soya is cultivated from Soya Seeds, which are sold at Goofy’s Stall in the Sunlit Plateau after the stall’s second upgrade. Fully grown soya may also be purchased here.

Seaweed

Seaweed can be obtained by fishing in open water anywhere in Dreamlight Valley or the Wild Tangle. While it’s not guaranteed with every cast, it’s a common catch, especially in non-bubbling spots.

Cooking Sesame Balls

Once you’ve gathered the ingredients, head to a cooking station. Combine Wheat, Ginger, Rice, Soya, and Seaweed to create Sesame Balls. Once cooked, they’ll automatically be added to the Dreamlight Valley meals collection so you can make the recipe without having to manually add every ingredient.

After you’ve cooked the Sesame Balls, you can gift them to any villager to raise their Friendship Level, feed them to Ravens in the Forgotten Lands (they’ll eat any five-star meal), or sell them to Goofy. There’s also a quest that uses them.

Quests featuring sesame balls

Cooking Sesame Balls is part of Mushu’s level seven Friendship Quest, “The Guardian Party.” Completing this quest will not only strengthen your bond with Mushu but also reward you with unique items and progress your journey. The quest simply requires that you learn how to make Sesame Balls from a recipe that Mushu gives you, and then you deliver them back to him for the party. If you haven’t unlocked Mushu yet, you’ll need to do that first and level him up before you can get this quest.
