Earl Grey and Vanilla Poached Pears
My recipe for poached pears takes inspiration from the London fog, a beverage that consists of Earl Grey tea, vanilla syrup, and steamed milk. There’s no milk here, but there’s plenty of fragrant Earl Grey tea and a whole vanilla bean, which gives the poaching liquid a delicate floral flavor and subtle sweetness.
Lobster Mac and Cheese
This lobster mac and cheese harnesses the deep lobster flavor found in the head and shells to infuse the milk used to make the cheese sauce. As a result, a delightful undercurrent of intense lobster flavor runs throughout the dish, instead of just in random morsels. The lobster is very lightly cooked, ensuring that it doesn’t turn rubbery while it bakes in the cheese sauce. Though many lobster-studded mac and cheese recipes bake for an extended period of time, in this recipe, the cooked pasta, cream sauce and lobster are tossed together, topped with a seasoned panko mixture then briefly broiled just before serving. Perfect for company, this dish can easily be made ahead of time as part of a larger holiday spread; just ensure that the cheese sauce, pasta and lobster meat are cool before combining.

Bacon, Egg and Cheese Strata
The classic bacon, egg and cheese sandwich is turned into a crowd-pleasing breakfast strata. Chunks of sandwich rolls are soaked in a chive and egg mix, then topped with thick slabs of bacon and grated Cheddar, then baked in the oven until soft and fluffy inside and melty and crispy on top. Halfway into baking, whole eggs are nestled into the top of the strata then baked until perfectly set, for a runny yolk that, for some, is crucial to any good B.E.C. Fresh chives are sprinkled on the strata before serving, plus a splash of hot sauce, if that's your thing. The strata can be prepared and refrigerated a day in advance, then baked right before serving.

Kettle Corn
Crunchy, sweet and salty kettle corn is a nostalgic childhood reminder of fairs, farmers markets and snack shacks. A feel-good anytime snack that is hard to walk away from, homemade kettle corn can be prepared easily with a handful of ingredients. Use a large (6-quart), tall and wide pot so the kernels have plenty of room to pop and the sugar doesn’t burn. A lighter-weight pot is also helpful to minimize the workout your arms will be getting with all the shaking. A glass lid is useful to better keep an eye on the kernels as they pop. You’ll be tempted to keep popping every last kernel, but it’s best to lose a few kernels than risk scorching the kettle corn and ruining the whole batch. Err on the side of caution, and remove the pot from the heat sooner than later. Kettle corn is best served right away but will keep, covered, for up to 5 days.

Hot Honey Baked Sweet Potatoes
Goat cheese and honey are a tried-and-true dream flavor pairing, but goat-cheese whipped cream and hot honey turn simple baked sweet potatoes into a veritable party. The combination of rosemary and nuts atop these plush orange babies is reminiscent of bar nuts.
Caramelized Kimchi Baked Potatoes
In this otherwise classic baked potato, kimchi is stepping in for bacon. It’s cooked down in a hot pan with butter and sesame oil to mellow its sharp, tangy edges while concentrating its salty savoriness. A pinch of sugar, though optional, helps the kimchi caramelize. Piled high on a fluffy baked potato, the umami-rich kimchi tastes fabulous with melted extra-sharp Cheddar and cooling sour cream. With such simple ingredients, it helps to really pile them on for maximum flavor impact.
Aglio e Olio Baked Potatoes
The classic Italian combination of aglio e olio (garlic and oil) finds a melodic expression in these Parmesan-festooned baked potatoes. Underneath the fluffy mounds of cheese is garlicky mayonnaise, which, when stirred into a hot pillowy spud, brings a comforting reminder of potato salad. In this recipe, it’s the little things that make a big flavor impact: Use fresh parsley or chives, crushed red pepper that smells fruity and looks jewel-bright, black peppercorns that you’ve toasted and cracked yourself (if you have the patience) and a flavorful extra-virgin olive oil that’s bold, bright or peppery. As in the simple but impactful pasta dish aglio e olio, these baked potatoes pack the biggest punch when each piece plays its part.
