Turkey Day

By
Seren Morgan-Roberts

Turkey Day coincides with Thanksgiving, which falls on the fourth Thursday of November. During this event, you’ll be able to collect some exclusive Turkey Day DIY recipes and make food with your Villager friends!

It’s time to cook a Thanksgiving Meal!

Cooking with Franklin

During Turkey Day, you’ll be tasked with helping Franklin make delicious meals near the town hall. You’ll be required to make the following dishes and in exchange you’ll be given some DIY recipes and exclusive Turkey Day items. In addition to getting the main ingredients, you’ll then be asked if you can enhance the recipe with secret ingredients. If you also grab the secret ingredients, you’ll be given more DIY recipes!

Pumpkin Pie Recipe

To cook the Pumpkin Pie, you will need:

  • 1 Orange Pumpkin
  • 1 random colored Pumpkin (white, green or yellow)

For helping with this recipe, Franklin will give you a Turkey Day Wall. If you want another Turkey Day reward, consider giving him the secret ingredients for this recipe, which are: 2 pumpkins of the 2 colors you haven’t given yet (white, green or yellow).

Grab your pumpkins that were left over from Halloween to make a delicious soup.

Clam Chowder Recipe

To cook the Clam Chowder Recipe, you will need:

  • x3 Manila Clams

For helping with this recipe, Franklin will give you the Turkey Day Rug. Then, if you also want to enhance the recipe for an extra reward, grab a Scallop!

Fish Meuniere Recipe

To cook the Fish Neuniere, you will need:

  • 1 Sea Bass
  • 1 Random Fish

For helping with this recipe, Franklin will give you a Cornucopia. Then, if you also want to enhance the recipe for an extra reward, you’ll need to fish for a Barred Knifejaw.

You can help Franklin make a wonderful meal for the islanders!

Gratin Recipe

To cook the Fish Neuniere, you will need:

  • 1 Mussel
  • 1 Random Mushroom
  • 1 Oyster

For helping with this recipe, Franklin will give you a Cornucopia. Then, if you also want to enhance the recipe for an extra reward, you’ll need to go diving for a Dungeness Crab. They’re pretty tricky to find sometimes, so maybe it’ll be worth asking your Villagers for help on this one (if you haven’t been given previous ingredients)

Turkey Day DIY Recipes

Below you’ll find the DIY recipes that can be unlocked by helping Franklin with the meal preparation, including getting him the secret ingredients. If you miss Turkey Day, you can buy these recipes the next day at Nook’s Cranny.
