How a dish is actually made

01

Vegetarian lentil burgers with sweet potato and shiitake

These vegetarian lentil burgers with sweet potato and shiitake are hearty, flavorful, and nutritious. The combination of beluga lentils and purple sweet potato creates a creamy yet compact texture, while smoked paprika, garlic, and amino acids or fish sauce provide extra depth. The finely sliced shiitake mushrooms add a savory umami touch and a delicious bite.

Cauliflower and bell pepper soup

Creamy, umami-rich cauliflower and bell pepper soup with roasted vegetables, white miso, and cashews is ideal as warming comfort food for autumnal lunches or light dinners. Roasting the cauliflower, bell pepper, and onion in the oven gives the soup a subtle smokiness, which you blend extra smooth in the soup maker to a velvety texture. Finish with roasted cashews and fresh herbs for crunch and freshness.

Have you ever eaten grilled cheese with bacon and avocado?

A really good sandwich can save the day. As soon as two slices of bread are toasted golden brown in a pan or on the grill and the cheese in between slowly melts, true comfort food is born. This version combines savory and fresh ingredients in a way that simply always works. The salty, crispy bacon meets the mild creaminess of the avocado.
