About this category
Recipes in this category are still very doable at home, but they involve steps where care pays off. Homemade aioli needs oil added slowly so the emulsion holds. Chicken Kiev with herb butter requires sealing the filling so it does not leak. Cauliflower gnocchi with gorgonzola cream sauce or an eggplant lasagna with walnut bolognese mean preparing parts separately before bringing them together.
Low-carb ingredients add their own challenges. Without flour, sauces and doughs rely on cheese, egg yolks, cream or psyllium husk for structure, and those react strongly to temperature. Keep the heat moderate when a sauce contains cheese, and let doughs rest so binders like psyllium can absorb liquid. A loaf of bread like German bread, for example, depends on that resting time.
Read the recipe through before you begin and set out everything you need. Having your ingredients measured and your pans ready makes the difference between a calm evening and a rushed one. Many dishes here, such as the lamb tajine with olives and almonds, are well suited to guests, because most of the work happens before anyone sits down at the table.
