Presidential Birthday Cake
This is a classic butter layer cake based on a recipe from Seth Greenberg, the master cake maker and the son of the founder of William Greenberg Jr. Desserts and Cafes, in Washington. He spent two days baking a $4,000 version of this cake for President Clinton's birthday in 1996. The recipe calls for a raspberry preserve filling, but use your favorite, then slather the cake with Mr. Greenberg's buttercream icing. The best part is that the cake improves with age, just as a birthday cake should.

This is one of those dishes that illustrates how recipes can be tweaked without any noticeable effect. It called for milk; I had skim milk. It wanted butter for sautéing; I used olive oil.

Tuna Burgers
The chef Michel Richard featured these tuna burgers in his 2006 cookbook, "Happy in the Kitchen." At the time of publication, Mr. Richard's Washington, D.C., restaurant, Citronelle, was considered one of the best in the country. Basil, soy, anchovies and garlic add layers of flavor to this simple-to-assemble tuna burger.
