Cooking is a fundamental activity in Disney's Dreamlight Valley, as the delicious meals that players make can not only be used to restore energy but also as a gift for villagers or as required quest items. Many of the recipes in the game are typical food items, but some are direct references to food that appeared in Disney movies. This is the case with Mushu's Congee, a replica of the porridge that Mushu makes Mulan for breakfast before her first day of training.
