Green Curry Paste
Combined with coconut milk, it’s the base for your next Thai curry.

DIY Dried Chiles
Red chiles are the best for drying.
Red Chile Hot Sauce
Splash liberally on fried eggs, toss with grilled veg, or spread on a sub.
Fresh Fennel and Arugula With Meyer Lemon Dressing
I love crunchy fennel and peppery arugula dressed with a slightly sweet dressing made from Meyer lemons—a fresh-tasting pick-me-up. Meyer lemons are only available in the wintertime, so if you can’t find them, use regular lemon juice and replace a third of it with fresh orange juice.
Grilled Cheese Tacos
Salty, smoky grilled halloumi is the star of this tasty, satisfying vegetarian option for the grill.
There's a New Toast in Town
Move over, avocado toast. Sweet potato toast has arrived.
Everyday Yellow Dal
Think of dal as similar in use to gravy—in other words, not a side dish or its own course. It is eaten on rice or with flatbreads, or with dry curries, and vegetables; it is meant as part of a meal.
Pork Cutlets with Cantaloupe Salad
A ripe cantaloupe is one of the most intoxicating pieces of produce under the sun—use it creatively.
Frozen Peaches With Strawberries and Mint
Poached frozen peaches eat like fruit-shaped sorbet and look like a three-dimensional sunset.
Quick-Pickled Strawberries
After you finish pickling the strawberries, hang on to the brine, which can be used in place of mild vinegars.
Blueberry–Chia Seed Jam
Preserve those last summer berries with this quick and easy jam. Then slather it on toast, whisk it into a fruity salad dressing, or swirl into store-bought ice cream.
Roasted Red Peppers and Cherry Tomatoes With Ricotta
At the height of summer, this is exactly the kind of simple, flavor-packed salad we want for dinner.
Red Curry–Marinated Japanese Eggplant
Japanese eggplants are smaller, sweeter, and faster-cooking than other types. If using globe eggplants, slice them into half-inch rounds.
Mushrooms with Béarnaise Yogurt
A classic steakhouse-inspired rub and sauce turn grilled mushrooms into a decadent, meaty meal.
Grilled Brined Vegetables
As long as you don’t mess with the ratio of vinegar, sugar, and salt, you can experiment with other spices, like fennel and coriander seeds, in this brine.
Tri-Tip with Chimichurri
This zesty chimichurri—a mix of parsley, cilantro, garlic, vinegar, and oil—is the perfect way to brighten up any steak (and any Father’s Day).
