BreakfastClassic French Crêpes
A thin batter that must rest for an hour, and a pan you barely grease. Rushing the rest is why home crêpes tear.

Breakfast
BreakfastBacon and Fried Eggs
Bacon started in a cold pan, eggs finished in its fat. Two techniques that cost nothing and are the difference between a good plate and a greasy one.

BreakfastGreek Yoghurt Bowl with Nuts and Berries
Barely a recipe, but toasting the nuts and macerating half the berries turns a bowl of yoghurt into something you would actually order.
10 minServes 2Easy
BreakfastFluffy American Pancakes
Buttermilk, a lumpy batter and a pan that is cooler than you think. Three small things that between them add about a centimetre of height.
25 minServes 4Easy
BreakfastBelgian Waffles
Whipped egg whites folded in at the last moment. That is what gives the deep pockets their shatteringly crisp shell and near-hollow inside.

BreakfastSkillet Grilled Cheese Sandwich
Mayonnaise on the outside instead of butter, and a lid on the pan. One browns more evenly, the other melts the cheese before the bread burns.
15 minServes 2Easy
BreakfastCreamy Breakfast Oatmeal
Rolled oats, a pinch of salt, and constant stirring. The salt is not optional — porridge made without it tastes like wet cardboard no matter what you put on top.
15 minServes 2Easy
BreakfastAvocado Toast with Chilli and Lime
Mashed with a fork, never blended, and seasoned far more aggressively than feels right. Under-salted avocado is the reason most versions taste flat.
10 minServes 2Easy
BreakfastThick-Cut French Toast
Day-old bread, cut thick, soaked properly rather than dipped. Stale bread is not a compromise here — fresh bread turns to mush in the custard.

DessertsCremeschnitte
The Lake Bled custard slice: a thick layer of vanilla custard, a cloud of cream, and two sheets of puff pastry. It needs a long chill, and there is no shortcut.

MainsSalmon and Avocado Maki Rolls
The rice is the dish. Season it while it is hot, cool it to body temperature, and never refrigerate it — cold rice goes hard and the rolls fall apart.

SoupsMiso Ramen
The weeknight ramen. The miso paste is fried in aromatics before the stock goes in, which takes a 40-minute bowl a surprising distance towards an all-day one.
