Seafoam Pudding is a briny fish pudding and the strongest fishing food in the game. The recipe unlocks at Fishing level nine. Eating it raises Fishing by four levels for a short time, which makes the fishing bar much larger. That is a big help against the hardest fish, including the Legendary Fish. The ingredients take real planning, since the Flounder and the Midnight Carp bite in different seasons in the valley. As a gift, though, it is a disaster: almost every villager hates it.
The in-game description reads: This briny pudding will really get you into the maritime mindset!
Recipe
The Seafoam Pudding recipe is learned on reaching Fishing level nine.
Cooking a Flounder with a Midnight Carp and Squid Ink makes Seafoam Pudding.
The Flounder is an ocean fish. It bites at the Beach in Spring and Summer, from morning until evening. The Midnight Carp lives in the Mountain Lake and the pond in Cindersap Forest. It only bites late at night, in Fall and Winter.
In the valley, the two fish bite in different seasons. Flounder caught in Summer should be kept in a chest until the Midnight Carp season starts. Ginger Island is the exception: both fish can be caught there in any season, the Flounder in the ocean and the Midnight Carp in the island's fresh water.
Squid Ink drops from Squid Kids in the Mines and from Blue Squids in the Dangerous Mines. A Fish Pond stocked with Squid also produces it, which is the steadiest supply.
These are the ingredients one batch needs.

Effects
Seafoam Pudding restores a fair amount of energy and health. Its real effect is a Fishing buff of four levels, the largest any dish gives.
Each Fishing level makes the bar in the fishing minigame taller. The buff keeps working past level ten, so a fully trained angler gets an even bigger bar. A taller bar is much easier to keep on a darting fish. Combined with an Iridium Rod, a Cork Bobber and a high Fishing level, the pudding makes the Legendary Fish far more manageable.
The buff is short, so eat the pudding right before casting for the target fish. Only one food buff can be active at a time, so another buffed dish would replace it.
Prices
Seafoam Pudding sells for less than its three ingredients would earn raw. Cooking it to sell loses money. The pudding is a tool for difficult catches, and every bowl is best saved for that job.
Gifts
Seafoam Pudding is one of the worst gifts in the valley. Abigail, Alex, Caroline, Clint, Demetrius, the Dwarf, Elliott, Emily, Evelyn, George, Gus, Haley, Harvey, Jas, Jodi, Kent, Leah, Leo, Lewis, Linus, Marnie, Maru, Pam, Penny, Pierre, Robin, Sam, Sandy, Sebastian, Shane, Vincent and the Wizard all hate it. A hated gift costs friendship, so it should never be handed to any of them.
Only Krobus and Willy like it. Willy is the town fisherman, so a fishing pudding suits him.
Notes
Seafoam Pudding can also be bought or won. The shop at the Dance of the Moonlight Jellies sells one each year for a high price. SquidFest can include one in its top reward tier. The Traveling Cart sometimes stocks it. A pet turtle at full friendship can also bring one as a gift.
In tailoring, Seafoam Pudding in the Sewing Machine makes the Mineral Dog Jacket. It also fills the blue dye pot at Emily and Haley's house.
