Grilled Corn and Tomato Salsa Salad
At our farmers’ market we picked up a dozen ears of corn for a weekend barbecue. With several ears left over, I repurposed the corn as the starting point for two salads. One emphasized cherry tomatoes, the other Italian parsley, both in plentiful supply at the farmers’ market.

Salt-Crusted Fingerling Potatoes
This is a delicious appetizer that can be cooked in a few minutes, adapted from a dish served by José Andrés at The Bazaar, his restaurant in Los Angeles. Over several visits, I enjoyed his extravagant treats, like the sticks of foie gras wrapped in cotton candy and the crispy cones filled with cauliflower cream and American caviar, but the dish I kept thinking about was “Salty Wrinkled Potatoes.” He flies in potatoes from Cape Verde. I pick up fingerling potatoes from our local farmers’ market and can’t tell the difference. Select the smallest fingerlings you can find.

‘Fancy’ Egg Salad
This recipe dresses up basic egg salad with parsley, capers, shallots and bacon. The writer, David Latt, cooks his eggs on a low, gentle boil for 30 minutes and finds they come out perfectly done, with the yolk flaky, but feel free to use whatever method you like, as long as the eggs are hard-boiled. (We give instructions for boiling and steaming in our guide to cooking eggs.) You can also add other spices: mustard, ground mustard seed, cumin or rosemary. The parsley can be replaced with cilantro, and the mayonnaise can be flavored.
