What To Add To The Luau Soup In Stardew Valley

The Luau is the biggest event of the summer in , and contributing to the Luau potluck is your chance to earn friendship points or cause mayhem. Players can add their own ingredients to the soup to make a delicious friendship-winning meal, a foul concoction, or something in between.

The Luau takes place on the beach on the 11th of every Summer between 9 AM and 2 PM. With the right ingredients, the potluck can be a great friendship booster, raising your friendship with the people of Pelican Town, including bachelors and bachelorettes. A good general rule of thumb is thatmore profitable and higher-quality items get better responses when added to the potluck. However, there are exceptions.

The player will be unable to interact with the other homes and shops during the Luau, so there is no excuse not to go and try it out. Your main goal is to contribute to the communal soup by bringing the best ingredients you can to add to it. After you choose to add the ingredient, the governor will try it.

An enthusiastic Stardew Valley player shares their excitement at discovering an especially helpful mechanic after playing for hundreds of hours.

The potluck is judged by the governor, and according to the official Stardew Valley Wiki,your character can gain or lose friendship points depending on his reaction. The following items give the best response, which earns you 120 friendship points with everyone who attends:

Note that you cannot bring items that are cooked or inedible, so you have to focus on uncooked, edible items. Notably, Life Elixir, Magic Rock Candy, Pina Colada, and Oil of Garlic are ineligible even though they are not necessarily 'cooked.' The reactions you get are determined by the item quality, base sell price, and edibility, but none of these factors are affected by a profession bonus if the player has one for the Luau.
