So, what puts the ‘gourmet’ into a gourmet dinner recipe? What makes a gourmet cook a gourmet? The freshness of ingredients is essential, as is complexity of flavor. Layering of flavors is another signature of a gourmet dish worthy of the name. Do you need a degree from a culinary school in order to produce an outstanding dish that spells gourmet? Certainly not. Some of the elements that make the difference between ordinary fare and gourmet dining are: the freshest and highest quality ingredients you can find; seasonings can make all the difference between an average plate and a gourmet winner; and a matching sauce can help create a winning plate. Do these things well and you can turn a frozen dinner into a four-star meal.
