Disney Dreamlight Valley's Storybook Vale expansion introduces a plethora of new ingredients, some more elusive than others. Mussels, a key ingredient described as a surprisingly water-filtering mollusk, are a prime example. Unlike some other shellfish, Mussels are only found in specific Storybook Vale biomes, and their spawn locations can be unpredictable.

This guide will help you locate and utilize these sometimes-elusive shellfish.

Mussel Hunting Grounds in Disney Dreamlight Valley

To harvest Mussels, explore Mythopia's various regions. Specifically, check these areas:

• The Elysian Fields
• The Fiery Plains
• The Statue's Shadow
• Mount Olympus

While some players report easily finding Mussels in these locations, others find them scarce. They may appear infrequently or cluster in specific spots. For instance, some potential spawn points are near Trial areas, such as the one adjacent to the first Trial in the Elysian Fields (Hades' unlock).

A significant Mussel cluster can be found hidden behind the secret bush area in the Elysian Fields during Hades' "A Moth to a Flame" quest. Uncovering this area may increase Mussel spawns throughout Mythopia.

Mussel Uses in Disney Dreamlight Valley

Unlike some other seafood, Mussels aren't used in crafting. Their culinary applications include:

• Garlic Steam Mussels
• Mussel Risotto
• Steamed Mussels

Alternatively, consume Mussels for a +150 energy boost, or sell them for 75 Gold Star Coins at Goofy's Stalls.
