When it's scorching hot, you crave something light, cooling and fresh that doesn't leave you feeling heavy. We go for cold soups and salads, iced lemonades and smoothies, watermelon, cucumber and citrus treats, ice pops, sorbets and no-cook dishes. We'll show you how to chill food nicely, how to scent drinks with herbs, and how to eat without standing over a hot stove. Whether you're cooling off on the terrace, watching the kids by the pool, or just don't want to cook in scorching hot weather, these recipes refresh and cool you down without any heaviness.

Creamy food glides on the tongue, fills you up and gives that pleasant richness that leaves you feeling nicely spoiled. We go for velvety soups and sauces, risottos, pasta with cream, gratin potatoes, creamy dips and luscious puddings and desserts. We'll show you how to smooth a sauce, how to thicken it without lumps, and how to reach a silky texture even without heavy cream. Whether you love a creamy soup, pasta or a silky dessert, creamy recipes show you how to nail that perfect smoothness that turns an ordinary dish into a caress.

Crispy and crunchy food delights with its very sound, and that golden crust is often the best part of the whole dish. We go for fried and baked treats, crispy chicken and schnitzels, fries and chips, breaded vegetables, crisp pastries and breadcrumb toppings. We'll show you how to achieve crunch, why fat temperature matters, and what to coat with so the result crackles nicely. Whether you're frying a schnitzel, roasting vegetables until crisp, or want crisp pastry, crispy and crunchy recipes show you how to nail that perfect crunch that turns an ordinary dish into an experience.
