Restoring the Dreamlight Valley to its former glory is going to take a lot of work, and you’ll need plenty of energy to keep going. One great way to stay energized is by cooking meals, and there are tons of recipes you can make in the game. The rarer the ingredients, the more energy your meal will give you.

Arcane Garlic Crab is a four-star entree introduced in Disney Dreamlight Valley: Storybook Vale. Unlike some other recipes, all its ingredients are found within Storybook Vale, so you won’t need to travel back to Dreamlight Valley. However, it can still be tricky to figure out what you need to make it. Here's a quick guide to help you gather the ingredients.

To get Salt Crystals, you will need to equip your fishing rod and cast your line in the water without any bubbles. Salt Crystals are pretty common here, as there aren’t many other materials you will reel in outside of bubbles. You will be able to gather plenty of them quickly.

Once you have all the ingredients, find a stove (one is available in your house). Interact with the stove and add the ingredients to cook Arcane Garlic Crab. After it’s made, you can either eat it to restore 3,250 energy or sell it for 1,335 Star Coins.
