Gluten-free recipes

Recipes that do without wheat, barley, rye — not by swapping in gluten-free bread, but by letting rice, corn, potatoes, and legumes do the work they have always done.

Soups

Lasagna Soup

All the flavors of a layered lasagna — rich meat ragù, herb-tomato broth, and three cheeses — cooked together in a single pot with lasagna noodles broken into pieces and simmered directly in the sauce. The noodles release starch into the broth as they cook, naturally thickening it into something between a soup and a sauce. The finishing move: a generous cold dollop of ricotta-mozzarella-Parmesan blended together, plopped into the center of each hot bowl. It melts and streaks through the red broth as you eat. No layering, no béchamel, no baking dish.

Lavangi (Azerbaijani Walnut-Stuffed Fish)

Lavangi is an Azerbaijani fish stuffed with a paste of walnuts, onion, and sour plums with narsharab. The grated onion must be squeezed dry, or the filling turns watery. The fish is stuffed, sewn shut, rubbed with narsharab, and baked until the skin is dark and glossy. It's a festive Talysh and Lankaran dish, a classic of the Novruz table.

Lebanese Falafel

Good falafel cracks under the teeth, then gives way to a moist, coarse green centre that tastes of chickpeas, parsley and warm cumin. This Lebanese-style version starts with dried chickpeas and needs no flour or egg. Eat it straight from the fryer with tahini, pickles and warm flatbread.

Lemon Marry Me Chicken

The original Marry Me Chicken gets a lemon treatment — zest and juice cut through the cream sauce and make the whole thing taste lighter than it has any right to. Sun-dried tomatoes, parmesan, garlic, a splash of white wine, fresh thyme. One skillet, one sauce, chicken thighs that stay juicy because they finish in the oven. Serve it over pasta, rice, or just with bread to drag through the sauce.

Lobster Bisque (Bisque de Homard)

Bisque de homard is the most luxurious soup in the classical French repertoire: a deeply orange, velvety-smooth cream soup built entirely on the flavor extracted from lobster shells. The technique is methodical — the shells are roasted hard in butter until they smell nutty and oceanic, the aromatics are sweated, cognac is added and often flambéed, white wine and fish stock are added, and the whole mixture simmers for 30 to 40 minutes to extract every molecule of flavor from the shells. The stock is then strained, blended, passed through a fine sieve, enriched with double cream, and mounted with cold butter to a glossy, coating consistency. A swirl of cream and a few morsels of lobster meat garnish each bowl. Nothing is wasted: the shells that look like kitchen scraps become the foundation of one of the most complex, satisfying soups in existence.

Lomo Saltado

Lomo saltado is a beef stir-fry from the chifa kitchens of Peru, where Cantonese cooking technique met Peruvian ingredients from the late nineteenth century onward. Strips of sirloin are seared in a scorching pan, then joined by red onion, ají amarillo, tomato, soy sauce and vinegar, and the whole thing is finished with fried potatoes folded in at the last second. Serving it over rice puts two starches on one plate, which is exactly the point: the potato is Andean, the rice and the wok are Chinese, and the soy-and-vinegar pan sauce belongs to neither on its own. Everything depends on pan temperature, so all cutting and measuring is done before the burner is lit.

Lyulya Kebab (Azerbaijani Lamb Skewers)

Lyulya kebab is Azerbaijani ground-lamb skewers grilled over a mangal. The meat is kneaded long with grated onion and lamb tail fat until it turns dense and tacky — with no egg or bread, that kneading is what keeps it on the skewer. It grills to a browned crust and is served with sumac, pickled onion, and lavash.
