## The Allure of Chef RV's Butter Cookies

Butter cookies have been a staple in many households for generations, evoking memories of childhood and simpler times. Chef RV's take on this classic treat brings back that nostalgic taste, with a touch of modern flair. In this article, we'll explore the magic behind these cookies and share some expert tips to perfect your batch.

## Ingredients

- 112g salted butter (room temperature)
- 50g powdered sugar
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 egg yolk
- 125g all-purpose flour

Makes 8 cookies at around 42g each.

## The Art of Crafting Butter Cookies

1. Begin by ensuring all your ingredients are at room temperature. This ensures a smooth and even blend.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine butter, powdered sugar, granulated sugar, and egg yolk. Beat the mixture until it achieves a creamy consistency.
3. Gradually fold in the all-purpose flour, mixing until a soft dough forms.
4. Using an ice cream scooper, portion out the dough onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Each ball should be around 42 grams to make 8 cookies.
5. Gently flatten each dough ball to give it the desired cookie shape.
6. Bake in a preheated oven at 353° F or 180° C for 15-18 minutes. The cookies should have a light golden hue.
7. Once baked, let them cool and they're ready to be savored!

## A Twist to the Classic

Chef RV's butter cookies are versatile. Consider adding lemon zest, lime, or even orange peel for a citrusy twist. For those with a penchant for unique flavors, green tea powder or black sesame seeds can be incorporated.

## Ingredient Substitutes

- Butter: If salted butter isn't available, unsalted butter with a pinch of salt works.
- Powdered Sugar: Granulated sugar blended to a fine consistency can be used.
- All-Purpose Flour: Gluten-free flour can be an alternative for those with dietary restrictions.

## Perfect Pairings

Butter cookies, with their rich and buttery flavor, pair wonderfully with a cup of hot tea or coffee. For a more indulgent experience, consider serving them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of caramel sauce.

## Expert Tips for the Best Outcome

- Quality Matters: Given the minimal ingredients, opt for high-quality butter for a richer taste.
- Watch the Clock: Avoid overbaking to retain the fresh butter flavor.
- Decorative Touch: For an elegant finish, dip half the cookie in melted dark chocolate.

## The Magic of Mushrooms

Mushrooms are the star of this dish. Their earthy flavor and unique texture make them a favorite in many cuisines. But what kind of mushrooms should you use? While most varieties work well, including a medley can add depth to the flavor. However, the real game-changer is the dried porcini mushrooms. Often referred to as the "King of Mushrooms," porcinis offer an unmatched rich and nutty flavor.

## Ingredients

- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1 medium white onion, chopped (approx. 150 grams)
- 2 tablespoons salted butter (approx. 28 grams)
- 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (approx. 50 grams)
- 3 cups water (approx. 710 grams, including mushroom brine from the can)
- 2 cups fresh milk (approx. 480 grams)
- 1 cup heavy (or all-purpose) cream (approx. 240 grams)
- 1-2 cans mushrooms (pieces and stems, approx. 450 grams per can)

## Crafting the Perfect Soup

1. Begin by melting the butter in a casserole and sautéing the garlic and onions until translucent.
2. Add the mushrooms, ensuring they are chopped into varied sizes for an interesting texture.
3. Incorporate the flour, acting as a thickener, and cook briefly.
4. Pour in the water, milk, and cream, stirring continuously.
5. As the mixture boils, it will thicken. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
6. Once boiled, reduce the heat and let it simmer, allowing the flavors to meld.
7. Finish off with a sprinkle of fresh herbs or a dash of truffle oil for an added layer of complexity.

## Tips and Enhancements

- Texture Matters: Avoid large, floppy pieces of mushrooms. Chopping them into varied sizes offers the best mouthfeel.
- Herb Choices: While thyme is a classic choice, feel free to experiment with rosemary, tarragon, or oregano.
- Wine Selection: A dash of dry white wine can elevate the flavor. Opt for a drinking wine over a cooking variant.
- Truffle Oil: One of Chef RV's secret ingredients is Truffle Oil. Add a dash for a distinctly muhroomy taste!

## Ingredient Substitutes

Not all ingredients are easily accessible everywhere. Here are some alternatives:

- Cream: If heavy cream is unavailable, all-purpose cream or even half-and-half can be used.
- Mushrooms: If porcini mushrooms are hard to find, shiitake or cremini mushrooms can be a good substitute.
- Musroom Alternatives: If you don't like mushrooms, Chef RV suggests to use corn, aspargus, broccoli or any vegetable you like or have. Be sure to chop the vegetables and saute them as with the mushrooms.

## Serving Suggestions

This soup pairs beautifully with crusty bread, especially when toasted with garlic butter. It also complements green salads, making for a wholesome meal.

## The Symphony of Leek and Mushroom Pasta

Leek and Mushroom Pasta is a harmonious blend of earthy mushrooms, subtly sweet leeks, and a creamy sauce that wraps around each strand of pasta, ensuring every bite is a burst of flavor. The dish is a testament to the beauty of simplicity, where fresh ingredients shine and create a symphony of tastes and textures.

## Ingredients

- 200 grams of pasta
- 250 grams of pasta water (reserved from boiling the pasta)
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- 2 teaspoons of garlic, minced
- Chilli flakes, to your liking
- 300 grams of leeks, sliced
- 250 grams of button mushrooms, sliced
- 1 teaspoon of salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
- 1 teaspoon of dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon of dried thyme

## The Cooking Process: Crafting the Magic

1. Boil the pasta according to package instructions. Aim for a slightly underdone texture as we'll complete the cooking in the sauce. Before draining, remember to reserve about 250 grams of pasta water.
2. Simultaneously, grab a large pan and sauté the garlic and chili flakes in olive oil.
3. Introduce the leeks to the pan and sauté until they wilt. Next, add in the mushrooms and cook until they're soft and tender.
4. Now, it's time for the pasta and pasta water to join the party. Simmer until the sauce thickens.
5. Season with salt and pepper, and sprinkle in the dried oregano and thyme. Stir well, and voilà, your Leek and Mushroom Pasta is ready to serve!

## The Art of Choosing and Preparing Leeks

Leeks, with their mild onion-like taste, are a crucial ingredient in this dish.

When selecting leeks, opt for ones that have firm, straight stems and bright green leaves.

To prepare, slice off the dark green parts and wash the remaining section thoroughly to remove any trapped dirt.

## Substitute Ingredients: Alternatives on Hand

Don't have all the ingredients? Not to worry! Here are some handy substitutes:

- Leeks: You can replace leeks with onions or shallots.
- Button Mushrooms: Feel free to use cremini, shiitake, or portobello mushrooms.
- Fresh Herbs: Substitute dried herbs with fresh ones, bearing in mind the 3:1 fresh to dried ratio.

## Preparation and Cooking Technique

Here are some of our quick tips to get the best out of this dish:

- Be sure to clean your leeks to remove all remaining dirt or sand. Keep only the white part of the leeks, cutting off the roots and the green leaves on top. Slice the leeks lengthwise, rinse under water, then chop.
- Slice the mushrooms into bite-sized pieces. Remember that mushrooms tend to become smaller when cooked, so adjust the size of your slices accordingly.
- Cook the pasta slightly just before al-dente. We will finish it off with the vegetables and the sauce in a pan.
- Add as much garlic as you want! Add the garlic to the oil even before the oil is hot to avoid burning the garlic.
- Saute the leeks and mushrooms until soft and tender. This will release all those flavourful juices that will make the dish fabulous.
- Once the leeks and mushrooms are cooked, add the cooked pasta and the pasta water and toss over medium heat until the sauce is slightly thickened.
- Don't forget to season with salt and pepper towards the end of the cooking process to ensure the perfect balance of seasoning is achieved.

## FAQs

### What can I use instead of leeks?

Onions or shallots are excellent substitutes for leeks. They provide a similar texture and mild, sweet flavor.

### Can I use any type of pasta?

Absolutely! Feel free to use whatever pasta you have on hand. However, long pasta like spaghetti or fettuccine tends to work best with this kind of sauce.

### Is there a vegan alternative for this dish?

Definitely! You can substitute the regular pasta with a vegan variant and use a plant-based oil in place of olive oil if desired.

### Can I freeze this pasta for later use?

Yes, this dish freezes quite well. Just ensure you cool it completely before freezing. When you're ready to eat, defrost and reheat it, adding a bit of water if needed.

### How can I make my pasta more flavorful?

To intensify the flavors, sauté the garlic until it's golden, and don't shy away from the herbs! Fresh herbs can add a lot more flavor than dried ones.

## The Art of Chicken Cordon Bleu

Chicken Cordon Bleu is a classic dish that has graced many dining tables over the years. Its name, which translates to "Blue Ribbon Chicken," hints at its regal origins. Traditionally, this dish features chicken wrapped around cheese and ham, breaded, and then fried or baked. Chef RV brings his unique twist to this timeless recipe, ensuring a gastronomic experience like no other.

## Ingredients for the Perfect Cordon Bleu

### Chicken and Fillings

- 1kg chicken breast fillet
- 1 pack ham or bacon (weight varies based on pack size)
- 250g easy-melting cheese
- ½ cup (approximately 120g) sliced pickles

### Breading Station

- 1 cup (approximately 125g) all-purpose flour
- 2 whole eggs, beaten
- 2 cups (approximately 100g) panko (Japanese bread crumbs)

### Spice Mix

- 1 tbsp. fine salt
- 1 tbsp. Spanish paprika
- 1 tbsp. garlic powder
- A pinch of dried thyme or rosemary

### Bechamel Sauce

- 2 tbsps. butter (approximately 28g)
- 2 tbsps. all-purpose flour (approximately 15g)
- 2 cups fresh milk
- 1-2 tbsps. truffle salsa (for added flavor)
- Salt and pepper to taste

## Crafting the Cordon Bleu

1. Begin by preparing the chicken breast fillet. Cover it between two sheets of cling film, then using a rolling pin, flatten it to a size slightly wider than your ham slice as well as your cheese stick.
2. Season the chicken with the spice mix, ensuring it's well-coated.
3. Place a slice of ham or bacon on the chicken, followed by a slice of cheese and some pickles.
4. Roll the chicken tightly using the cling film, folding the sides inward to preven the cheese from oozing out while frying. Seal tightly and set in the fridge or in the freezer before proceeding to the next step of breading.
5. Dip the rolled chicken into the flour, then the beaten eggs, and finally coat with panko bread crumbs.
6. Shallow fry or bake the chicken until golden brown and fully cooked.
7. For the bechamel sauce, melt butter in a pan, add flour, and whisk continuously. Gradually add milk, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Once thickened, add truffle salsa, salt, and pepper.
8. Serve the Chicken Cordon Bleu with the bechamel sauce drizzled on top.

## Tips and Tricks for a Perfect Dish

- Always ensure the chicken is rolled tightly to prevent the fillings from oozing out.

- When breading the chicken, remember to keep one hand clean as Chef RV suggests, so you can use your clean hand to fry the chicken pieces.
- Chef RV suggests not to deep fry the chicken as it might open up. Therefore, Chef RV suggests to shallow fry these.

## The Magic of Meringue Cookies

Meringue cookies are a delightful treat made with just two primary ingredients - egg whites and sugar.

These cookies are not only fun to whip up on a whim but also come with the added benefits of being low in calories and gluten-free.

Their light and crunchy texture makes them a favorite among many, especially during the holidays.

The sugar content can be reduced or served with fruits and cream to make them less sweet.

They can be used as decoration for cakes, as base for a pavlova dessert, or simply as a snack by itself.

## Ingredients: Simplicity at its Best

- Egg Whites (60g): Ensure they are at room temperature for the best results. A clean bowl and whip, free from any traces of oil or grease, are essential. If in doubt, a thorough wash with soap should do the trick.
- White Sugar (120g): This ingredient, when added gradually and beaten until no granules are felt, gives the meringue its characteristic sweetness and structure.
- Food Color (Optional): For those looking to add a splash of color to their cookies.
- Vanilla Extract or other flavour essensces: be careful not to add too much or it may alter the texture of the meringue. Try to use concentrated flavours so that you don't have to add a lot.

Note: While many recipes might suggest the use of cream of tartar, it's not a necessity. As long as the egg whites are whipped correctly, achieving the perfect meringue consistency is possible without it.

## How to Make the Perfect Meringue Cookie

1. Begin by preheating the oven to 100°C or 200°F.
2. In a clean bowl, beat the egg whites until they turn frothy and you can no longer see any individual bubble.
3. Gradually add the sugar, continuing to beat on high until no sugar granules are felt.
4. Once the mixture forms stiff peaks, it's ready to be piped onto a tray lined with parchment paper.
5. Bake for approximately 1 hour or until the cookies can be easily lifted off the parchment paper.
6. Allow the cookies to cool down to achieve that desired crisp texture.

## Serving Suggestions

Meringue cookies pair beautifully with a cup of hot cocoa or tea. They can also be served alongside fruit salads or as a topping for creamy desserts like puddings and custards.

## Tips and Tricks for the Perfect Meringue

- Always ensure your utensils are clean and free from grease.
- Bringing the egg whites to room temperature can make a significant difference in the whipping process.
- If you're looking to add some sparkle to your cookies, consider dusting them with powdered sugar or clear crystal sprinkles.
- You can also fold in some nuts or dessicated coconut. Try not to add to much that it will overwhelm the mixture.

## Ingredient Substitutes

While this recipe is straightforward with minimal ingredients, if you're looking to reduce the sugar content, consider using alternatives like stevia or monk fruit sweetener. However, it's essential to note that the texture and taste might vary slightly.

## Nutritional Information

Per serving of around 10g, these cookies would contain approximately:

- Calories: 30
- Carbohydrate Content: 4g
- Cholesterol Content: 0mg
- Fat Content: 0g
- Protein Content: 1g
- Saturated Fat Content: 0g
- Sodium Content: 5mg
- Sugar Content: 4g
- Trans Fat Content: 0g
- Unsaturated Fat Content: 0g

Please note these are just estimates and should not be used for medical or dietary requirements.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### Why are my meringue cookies chewy?

If your meringue cookies turn out chewy, it might be due to excess moisture. Ensure that you bake them long enough and allow them to cool inside the oven to achieve the desired crispness.

### Can I flavor my meringue cookies?

Absolutely! While this recipe is a basic version, feel free to add vanilla extract, almond essence, or even citrus zest for a flavor twist.

### How long do meringue cookies last?

When stored in an airtight container, meringue cookies can last up to two weeks. However, ensure they are kept in a cool, dry place.
