Back Pocket Recipes Five go-to recipes plus cooking techniques every grown-up should know BY ROY FINAMORE
T
here are things grown-ups (no matter what age) should know how to do in the kitchen. Some are simple dishes; others are
cooking skills and tricks that make a good dish great. When we have these recipes and skills in our back pocket, we can be sure our friends will be happy and satisfied when they come for dinner and we can start feeding ourselves a little better, too. The recipes are as easy as a quick dish of pasta or the perfect steak. Tender fish encased in a crisp crust is much easier to achieve than you might think, too. Pair it with some sliced tomatoes, and you’ve got a terrific dinner. Roast chicken with a three-ingredient pan sauce is classic “bonne femme” cooking—something every French grown-up knows how to make. And we all should master at least one showoff dish. Here it’s rosy pork tenderloin with a moist stuffing.
