All ovens have their own unique quirks, but gas ovens can be particularly tricky. Most of the time it’s business as usual, and then out of the blue, you’ll bake some muffins that won’t brown on top or a cake that bakes unevenly. Wonder why, or what you can do about it? We have a few tips to help you out.
Tips for garnishing your soup
While a simple bowl of soup is warm and tasty, Devin showed us some tricks to make your soup beautiful and eye-catching:
-
Have you ever tried frying thyme sprigs before? Crispy thyme leaves add fragrance and texture, and are visually striking by creating sharp right angles on the soup’s surface.
-
Soup garnishes often reflect the soup’s flavor, so why not try some crunchy, caramelized sprout leaves? Devin adds, once you roast the Brussels sprouts, they ‘add a very good dimension to the soup’ through their charred smokey flavor.
-
A creamy blob of Gorgonzola sour cream, strong and rich from the cheese, and tasty enough to lick from the bowl.
-
A drizzle of extra virgin olive oil full of freshness to off-set the rich cheese.
-
A sprinkling of micro herbs – if you’re feeling fancy!
