PECAN SABLES

1 1/4 cups all purpose flour

1 cup finely chopped toasted pecans

1/4 teaspoon baking powder

1/8 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature

2/3 cup powdered sugar

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 large egg yolk

Mix flour, pecans, baking powder, and salt in medium bowl. Using electric mixer, beat butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla in large bowl until fluffy. Beat in egg yolk. Add flour mixture and stir until blended. Shape dough into ball; flatten into disk. Wrap in plastic and chill until firm enough to roll, about 15 minutes.

Preheat oven to 325°. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Roll out dough on lightly floured surface to 1/4-inch thickness. Using a 3-inch round cookie cutter, cut out cookies. Transfer cookies to prepared sheets, leaving about an inch between each other. Gather dough scraps and repeat until all dough is used.

Makes about 2 1/2 dozen.

To bake entire meal:

Adjust oven racks to positions 1,4, and 5, counting up from the bottom. Preheat oven to 450° on Pure Convection . Once oven has preheated, place beef tenderloin on rack position 1 on the left side of the oven. Place roasted red bell pepper potato gratin next to roast on the right side. Reduce heat to 350°. Set timer for 30 minutes. Once time is up, remove foil from potato gratin. Place asparagus in oven on rack position 5. Place 1 sheet of pecan sables on rack position 4. Once time is up, remove roast, potatoes, asparagus and cookies. Place second sheet of cookies in the oven and set timer for 15 minutes. Set timer for 15 minutes, remove cookies when time is up.

To serve, cut roast into 1-inch slices. Serve with roasted bell pepper potato gratin and asparagus. Allow cookies to cool for about 5 minutes on the sheet. Transfer cookies to baking rack and cool completely.

Serves 4.

Range Cooking specifications

Dacor, a renowned name in luxury kitchen appliances, has redefined the art of cooking with its innovative range of cooking products. Designed for both culinary enthusiasts and professional chefs, Dacor ranges blend advanced technology with elegant aesthetics, offering a cooking experience that is both versatile and enjoyable.

One of the standout features of Dacor ranges is their precision cooking capabilities. Many models are equipped with Dual-Stacked Burners, which allow for precise heat control from a gentle simmer to a high sear. This versatility helps home chefs create a wide range of dishes with ease. The burners are designed to deliver uniform heat distribution, ensuring that every meal is cooked to perfection.

Dacor’s commitment to innovation is evident in its use of the latest cooking technologies. For instance, the addition of the Dacor’s exclusive "True European Convection" feature in its ovens guarantees even baking results. This technology utilizes a fan in conjunction with the heating elements to circulate hot air, reducing cooking times and enhancing flavor development. This is particularly beneficial for baking, where even heat is crucial.

Another notable feature is Dacor’s sophisticated built-in Sous Vide function, allowing cooks to prepare foods at precisely controlled temperatures for hours. This method locks in flavors, nutrients, and offers an incredible level of tenderness, making it a favorite among gourmet home cooks.

The design of Dacor ranges is equally impressive. Crafted with high-quality materials, the appliances boast a sleek, modern look that integrates seamlessly with upscale kitchen designs. The intuitive controls, often equipped with touch-screen technology, provide a user-friendly experience. Whether one is a novice or an expert in the kitchen, operating a Dacor range feels natural and straightforward.

Additionally, many Dacor ranges come equipped with smart technology, allowing users to monitor and control their cooking through a smartphone app. This feature enables cooks to start preheating their ovens remotely or receive alerts when their dish is ready, adding an element of convenience to meal preparation.

Safety is also a key priority in Dacor designs. Features such as automatic shut-off, cool-to-touch surfaces, and child locks ensure that cooking becomes not only a delightful experience but a safe one too.

In sum, Dacor ranges blend luxury with functionality. Their innovative technologies, such as Dual-Stacked Burners, True European Convection, Sous Vide cooking, and smart capabilities make them a standout choice for anyone serious about cooking. Coupled with elegant design and safety features, Dacor continues to elevate the culinary experience, making each meal an opportunity for creativity and enjoyment.
