With the Tales of Agrabah update for Disney Dreamlight Valley, there are many quality of life changes along with some of the bigger changes, like new characters.
To get the Slow Cooker quality of life addition, you’ll want to chat with Tiana. You should automatically have a quest once your game is updated to the latest version.
If the quest doesn’t automatically track, check your quest log under the menu. If you check the Help option under Settings, the version in tiny numbers at the upper right should show at least 1.15 followed by some other numbers.
| If yours says 1.14 instead, you may need to manually trigger the update. |
Talk to Tiana
When you talk to Tiana, she will provide you with a list of items you need to collect:
- 6 Iron Ingots
- 2 Tinkering Parts
- 20 Hardwood
- 2,500 Dreamlight
Additionally, you’ll find her Gumbo recipe book in your inventory as well.
Place Your Slow Cooker
Once you’ve gathered all the necessary items, you need to visit a crafting station to build the slow cooker.
Once it’s done, you can place the Slow Cooker wherever you’d like to put it. You’ll find the slow cooker in the furniture menu by selecting Tiana’s portrait.
As soon as you place it, you’ll receive a special popup screen that will show you how to use it. Cooking in the Slow Cooker will cost Dreamlight.
This is also not a fast option, so it’s better to use it for planning ahead. Perhaps set up some recipes to cook before you start a farming project, for example.
If you need food quickly, old-fashioned cooking at a cooking station is going to be your best bet, or purchasing food from Tiana’s stall.
Use Your New Slow Cooker
Once you’ve placed your Slow Cooker, the next part of the quest is to use it! If you don’t already have the Gumbo recipe unlocked, be sure to use the Gumbo recipe book in your inventory.
You only need to make 3 Gumbo dishes, which will cost 75 Dreamlight. Cooking still takes coal, so you’ll also need to have at least 3 coal available as well.
| You do not need to have the ingredients or coal in your inventory to use the Slow Cooker. |
The maximum amount you can cook in the Slow Cooker is 30 dishes. As soon as you confirm the quantity of the dish you’re cooking, the process will begin.
You are able to cancel the cooking process if you want, and you can tell when the Slow Cooker is cooking by a glowing light on the front which pulses if it’s in use. You’ll also be able to see little puffs of steam as the Slow Cooker works.
You can check on the Slow Cooker periodically and claim any finished dishes. When the dishes are completely done cooking, the Slow Cooker will emit a sound, and the glowing light will have a green aura to it instead of just the previous yellow glow.
To make the 3 Gumbo for the quest it will take between 13-15 minutes. You can also leave the meals in the Slow Cooker until you’re ready to pick them up.
Talk To tiana again
You can complete the quest by chatting with Tiana about your experience using the Slow Cooker. Congratulations! You can now cook multiple quantities of your favorite dishes.
