The majority of cooking ingredients in Disney Dreamlight Valley can be obtained via farming, planting and cultivating crops from seeds purchased at Goofy’s Stall in each of the valley’s biomes. The game also features numerous ingredients that are obtained exclusively through foraging. Each of the game's biomes features ingredients which grow exclusively in that specific area.

There is also a small batch of ingredients which can be obtained only by purchasing them from Remy, the beloved rat chef from Ratatouille, from a special shop located in the kitchen of his restaurant, Chez Remy. His offerings include the game’s dairy ingredient options, including Milk, Eggs, Cheese, and Butter, available to buy with Star Coins immediately after opening shop.

There are two additional ingredients he can sell which are unlocked only by completing specific quests, one of which is Peanuts. This guide dishes out all the details on how players can get their hands on Peanuts in Disney Dreamlight Valley.

Players can buy Peanuts from Remy’s Store, located in the kitchen of Chez Remy, at a cost of 200 Star Coins per bag. However, Peanuts can only be bought after being unlocked through completion of the quest “Remy's Recipe Book.”

The quest “Remy's Recipe Book” becomes available after reaching Friendship Level 4 with Remy, and requires the player to have unlocked the Dazzle Beach biome and progressed a certain length into Merlin’s quests. If the player has not yet completed the necessary quests for Merlin, it will be indicated in the quest log that additional progress is required before they can accept “Remy's Recipe Book.”
