How to cook red meat properly

Cooking red meat well is not as simple as it might seem. Even if you start with high quality meat, with poor cooking it can become dry and tough. Here's a way that will guarantee you a perfect result.

Pecan fruit rolls

These pecan nut and dried fruit rolls, wrapped in golden caramelized puff pastry, are really delicious.

Grandma Solange's biscuits

These biscuits are very simple to make and delicious with tea or coffee. They are easy enough for children to enjoy making them.

Beef braised in reduced red wine

In classic recipes of this kind, the meat is simply cooked in the wine as it comes. This version is different: the red wine is reduced first separately on low heat with herbs, onion and carrot, then the meat is cooked long and slow in this. This method gives the meat a richer, more intense flavour.

Almonds pyramids

If you are already familiar with coconut pyramids, you might like to try these almonds flavoured pyramids. The recipe is very straightforward, but these little cakes, with their crisp outside and moist centre, are simply delicious.
