Sweet & Sour Kingfish Steak Recipe in Disney Dreamlight Valley
To make Sweet & Sour Kingfish Steak in Disney Dreamlight Valley, players must gather three specific ingredients: Sugarcane, Lemon, and Kingfish. Sugarcane and Kingfish come from Dazzle Beach, and the Lemon is the fruit of a wild tree found in the Forest of Valor or Glade of Trust biomes.

First, Sugarcane can be purchased from Goofy’s Stall on Dazzle Beach for 29 Star Coins, or players can buy the crop’s seeds for 5 Star Coins. Sugarcane only takes seven minutes to grow, so those looking to save a few coins can plant Sugarcane and do other activities in the meantime. Newcomers can enter Dazzle Beach after clearing the Night Thorns from Dreamlight Castle and giving Merlin 1,000 Dreamlight to access the ocean biome. Kingfish has more specific requirements regarding obtainment, which might make it slightly more tricky to get.
As players would expect, Kingfish can be caught using the Fishing Rod at fishing nodes on Dazzle Beach. However, it does not simply appear at any fishing spot. According to YouTube content creator Quick Tips, Kingfish can only be obtained from blue nodes, referring to rings and bubbles with a blue hue. Furthermore, time of day could also be a factor, but this has yet to be confirmed to be a fact. Nevertheless, if players are still trying to catch a Kingfish from Dazzle Beach, Quick Tips suggests fans try again during the late evening or night. Finally, Lemons are ingredients acquired from trees found in the Glade of Trust and Forest of Valor. Once players have obtained all three ingredients for the Sweet & Sour Kingfish Steak, they can make the recipe at a cooking stove.
