MainsChicken Fried Steak with Cream Gravy
Beef, not chicken — it takes the name from being fried the way chicken is. Tenderised thin, double-dredged, and served under a gravy made in the same pan.

MainsRoast Turkey with Butter Under the Skin
Dry-brined for two days, roasted breast-down for the first hour, and rested for forty minutes. Dry turkey is caused by every one of those three steps being skipped.

SnacksHomemade Chicken Nuggets
Minced chicken rather than chopped, which is what gives the smooth bite of the ones from a box — except you can see everything that went in.

MainsChicken Curry with Toasted Spices
Whole spices toasted and ground, and onions cooked far past the point most recipes stop. Twenty-five minutes of onions is the difference between a curry and a stew with curry powder in it.

MainsPan-Roasted Chicken Breast with Pan Sauce
Skin-on breast, started in a cold pan and finished in the oven, with a sauce built from what sticks to the bottom. Dry chicken breast is a timing problem, not a cut problem.

SnacksBuffalo Wings with Blue Cheese Dip
Fried, then tossed in nothing more than cayenne pepper sauce and melted butter. That emulsion is the entire recipe, and it is why bottled buffalo sauce never tastes the same.

SnacksCrispy Baked Chicken Wings
Baking powder and an overnight sit in the fridge, and the skin comes out of the oven as crisp as fried. No pan of hot oil, no clearing up afterwards.

MainsSlow-Roast Lamb Shoulder with Garlic and Rosemary
Four hours at a low temperature and almost no attention. Shoulder has too much connective tissue to cook quickly, which is exactly why it rewards leaving alone.

MainsSeared Duck Breast with Cherry Sauce
The fat comes off in a cold pan over a low heat, slowly, until the skin is glass-thin and crisp. Rush this and you get chewy skin over grey meat.

SaladsCobb Salad
Everything chopped to the same size and laid out in stripes rather than tossed. The arrangement is the recipe — you dress and mix it at the table.

SaladsClassic Caesar Salad
Anchovy mashed to a paste, egg yolk whisked to an emulsion, and croutons fried in the garlic oil. No bottled dressing comes close.
