Grilled Tomato Sandwich and Cheese Soup

Few comfort meals can rival a warm, gooey grilled cheese paired with a steaming bowl of tomato soup. While countless recipes exist for this classic duo, let's explore a twist: a grilled tomato sandwich with cheese soup. With the addition of smoky, porky 'nduja (a spreadable Italian sausage), this sandwich takes on an almost pizza-like quality. If pork isn't your thing, feel free to swap in your favorite spread like pesto or romesco. The accompanying cheese soup couldn't be simpler—it's more of a technique than a recipe. Use any good melting cheese (I chose white cheddar this time). You'll wonder why you haven't tried this sooner!

Maryland Crab Soup

Maryland Crab Soup

While the exact origins of Maryland crab soup are unknown, the recipe is rooted in folk tradition, likely learned from Indigenous people, and changed over time depending on what was available and in season. You’ll find different recipes on menus in restaurants and homes throughout the Chesapeake Bay area, but you can usually assume the tomato-based soup is likely to contain corn, beans, peas and tomatoes. Seek out Maryland blue crab meat, prized for its sweetness thanks to the time the crustacean spends swimming in the brackish waters of the bay. While stock always adds a more robust flavor to soups, water will work fine as well for this hearty, vegetable-heavy recipe.

Lobster Rolls

Lobster Rolls

There are two longstanding, popular styles of lobster rolls, and they differ in two primary ways: temperature (cold versus warm) and sauce (mayonnaise versus butter). One style hails from Maine, where chilled lobster meat is tossed in a mayonnaise dressing (often with minced celery and chives), while the Connecticut version warms lobster meat in butter and serves it glistening in the butter sauce. These rolls embrace the best of both worlds and are both buttery and bright. The lobster meat is warmed in butter, quickly tossed in a light mayo dressing, then tucked into butter-toasted buns. Serve with potato chips and tangy coleslaw for a classic summer meal.

Smash Burgers

Smash Burgers

Smashburgers get their name from just that: smashing the meat onto a griddle using a metal spatula or burger press, resulting in a thin burger with seriously charred edges. Use ground beef that has a 20 percent fat content, roll the meat into balls, then chill for at least 30 minutes before cooking to keep the fat solid. The result? Juicy burgers with brown, crisp edges. Unlike a typical burger that you might throw on the grill, thinner smashburgers cook best on a griddle or cast-iron skillet. Smear some mayonnaise on the insides of the buns before toasting them; the fat leftover from the mayo should be just enough to slick up the griddle to cook the burgers, but you can use a touch of oil in between batches as needed. Top your burger how you like: Finely shredded lettuce, homemade pickles and thinly sliced red onion are enough to make this fast food staple feel fancy. A simple combination of mayo, ketchup, mustard, relish and vinegar creates the perfect sauce, but fry sauce would also hit the spot.
