There's nothing sexier than a DIY date night dinner. Yes, going to a restaurant means we don't have to spend a decade debating over what to cook, but where's the love - or fun - in that? These recipes from the husband and wife duo behind Haute Chefs LA are perfect for a pair, especially when differing tastes tend to get in the way (we know the struggle of dating with clashing diets all too well)...
As a husband and wife team, we are always collaborating on everything from who’s picking up our boys, to what’s for dinner to who’s cooking what – so, for the ‘his and hers’ en papillote recipe – it was a natural. Jeff handles the proteins and I’m all about the veggies.
We love good, healthy fats and are conscious to include them in our daily meals. This wild caught salmon is filled with the good fats we love, and cooking it by the classic French ‘en papillote’ method allows it to cook softly with the help of steam in its own juices.
When it came to the vegetables, I always go for color and whatever catches my eye at the farmers market. This time it was these little carrots we put right on top. You can switch out the vegetables in this recipe with pretty much any seasonal vegetables – there are really no rules. This method cooks the vegetables in it’s own aromatic air. As the heat expands, all of the aromatic herbs and flavors infuse everything in this little ‘papillote’ – delicately and harmoniously. [olists num=1][olists num=2]
