How to dust
"Dusting" in cooking is sprinkling a very fine layer of something in powder form. Icing sugar or cocoa powder on cakes for example. As this is not very easy to do evenly, here is a way to do it.
Pecan fruit rolls
These pecan nut and dried fruit rolls, wrapped in golden caramelized puff pastry, are really delicious.
Eggs Florentine
Eggs Florentine are soft-boiled eggs served on a bed of spinach, topped with Mornay sauce and baked au gratin.
Express apple tart
A fine apple tart, very quick to make.
Flambéd bananas
The trick of this recipe is to end up with bananas caramelised on the outside, still firm on the inside, coated with a tasty syrup which is not 95% butter.Sign up to receive the latest recipes (next batch due to be sent on 2026-01-25)
