Disney Dreamlight Valley's Storybook Vale expansion introduces a plethora of new ingredients, some easier to acquire than others. Mussels, a type of shellfish described as surprisingly effective water filters, present a challenge for some players. Unlike other shellfish, Mussels are only found in specific Storybook Vale biomes, and their spawn locations can be unpredictable.

Locating Mussels in Disney Dreamlight Valley

Mussels are found on the ground throughout Mythopia, specifically within these areas:

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

While some players report easily finding Mussels in these areas, others find them scarce and inconsistently spawning. Potential spawn points include near trial areas, such as the one near Hades' initial trial in the Elysian Fields.

A significant cluster of Mussels can be discovered behind the secret bush area in the Elysian Fields during Hades' "A Moth to a Flame" quest. Unlocking this area may increase Mussel spawns across Mythopia.

Utilizing Mussels in Disney Dreamlight Valley

Unlike other seafood, Mussels aren't used in crafting. Their primary use is as a cooking ingredient in these recipes:

• Garlic Steam Mussels
• Mussel Risotto
• Steamed Mussels

Alternatively, consuming a Mussel restores 150 energy, or they can be sold for 75 Gold Star Coins at Goofy's Stalls.
