Kitchen Notes

things I actually cook, written down so I stop forgetting
weeknight lentil soup
serves 4 · 35 min

Onion, carrot, celery in oil until soft. Lentils, stock, bay leaf. Simmer 25 min. Lemon at the end, always.

the bread that actually works
makes 1 loaf · overnight

No-knead, wet dough, long cold rise. Dutch oven, lid on for 25, lid off for 15. Don't skip the resting time after baking.

roasted whatever's in the fridge
serves 2–3 · 40 min

Cut it small, oil it well, salt more than feels right, high heat, don't crowd the tray.
