Chef Amara’s Kitchen Secrets & Pro Tips
- Use room temperature eggs so the fats and water blend smoothly with the gluten-free starch particles.
- Toss immediately in brown butter sage sauce or rich bolognese.
1. Spoon and Level Your Flour: Never scoop flour directly from the canister with your measuring cup, which packs excess volume by up to 25%. Fluff the flour with a fork, spoon it into the cup, and level the top with a knife. 2. Season in Measured Layers: Introduce small pinches of salt at different cooking stages rather than dumping seasoning on at the end. This draws out moisture and seasons every ingredient to its core. 3. Chef's Kitchen Secret: Use room temperature eggs so the fats and water blend smoothly with the gluten-free starch particles.
