With a short list, good cooking and balanced seasoning achieve more than a cupboard full of extras.
Check the complete displayed list
The ingredient list on each recipe is the source of truth, including oil, salt or a condiment when required. Gather everything before starting, because a short recipe leaves less room for a forgotten component.
Develop flavour through cooking
Take time to brown, roast or reduce when a step calls for it. Distinct browning, the right amount of salt and the acidity specified in the recipe can add depth without a long list of flavourings.
Substitute by function
Choose an alternative that performs the same job: a similarly textured vegetable, an equally rich liquid or a cheese that melts in a comparable way. In baking, do not remove a structural ingredient without an explicitly suggested substitution.
