Blackcurrant Sauce
This recipe is a blackcurrant sweet and sour sauce that works well with pork, game meat, venison or on top of any dessert. This is a delicious sauce.
Pound Cake
This vanilla pound cake from the poet Tracy K. Smith has a fine textured crumb and a very buttery flavor. The heavy cream makes it a bit lighter than the usual pound cake. If you use a tube pan, the crackling top stays crisp (turning it over to cool softens the crunch) and the cake is a bit easier to remove from the pan. Or, you can bake it in two loaf pans (in which case, start checking for doneness after 45 minutes). The magic thing about this cake is that it gets better by the day — ever so slightly sweeter and more settled into its flavors. It keeps well at room temperature for a few days.
Holiday potatoes
I call this holiday potatoes because it's delicious enough for special occasions as well as easy and good for making in large batches. It's one of those serendipitous recipes that sort of created itself, and as a result, doesn't require exact measurements. I also like to make a version with russets peeled and cut smaller as breakfast potatoes.

Salty Dog
The Salty Dog is a Greyhound cocktail with salt — hence the name. Craig Claiborne first brought the recipe to The Times in 1968 for a Fourth of July barbecue feature. While his version calls for adding salt to the drink, other recipes salt the rim of the glass instead; see the variation below.

Missing in Action Cocktail with Bourbon and Aperol
For this Aperol and bourbon Missing in Action cocktail, I did the best approximation I could, using Aperol instead of Campari and lemons instead of limes.
Caramelized Cauliflower
Pan-frying cauliflower brings out the natural sugars and caramelizes them, giving this side dish recipe a sweet, nutty flavor. Season with red pepper flakes.
Go-To Brussels Sprouts
The name says it all – one of my favorite ways to prepare Brussels sprouts, as it's quicker than roasting, taking just a few minutes. When I need to do advance prep, as for example when these are part of a somewhat involved meal, I brine my prepared Brusslies for a few hours (or even a few days) in a quart of cold water - or enough cold water to cover by at least an inch -- to which I've added two or three hefty pinches of salt. It preserves the color nicely without making the outer leaves mushy (a downside of blanching them). I picked the brining trick up from the 1943 "Joy of Cooking." Mrs Rombauer never lets me down. I hope you enjoy these. ;o)
Pistachio Crusted Salmon
This pistachio crusted salmon recipe includes salmon fillets, pistachios and their nutrient-rich benefits, spicy mustard, olive oil and salt and pepper.

This is a chocolate sunday sauce gone all grown up! Taking a twist on the old-timey cocktail, brandy alexander, this sunday sauce is thick, chocolatey, and sophisticated, yet so simple to make. Serve on vanilla ice cream or banana nice cream with chopped walnuts.
