Roasted Squash and Ginger Noodle Soup With Winter Vegetables

Shrimp and Brown Rice Soup
This irresistible soup is inspired by a Southeast Asian dish traditionally made with Thai jasmine rice. The recipe is adapted from one in “Hot Sour Salty Sweet,” by Naomi Duguid and Jeffrey Alford.

Stir-Fried Pork and Pineapple
This recipe, an adaptation from “The Hakka Cookbook” by Linda Lau Anusasananan, came to The Times by way of Mark Bittman in 2013. The Hakka people are sometimes thought of as the Jews of China, because they’re dispersed all over the place. But the Hakkas cannot even point to an original homeland: you can find them everywhere. “Some people call us dandelions, because we thrive in poor soil,” says Ms. Anusasananan, who was born in California. Hakka dishes like this one, chow mein and pretty much anything in bean sauce, have defined Chinese-restaurant cooking for nearly everyone. This lively stir-fry comes together in about a half-hour and is easily doubled or tripled for a crowd. To make it more family- and weeknight-friendly, substitute sliced bell peppers for the fungus and canned pineapple for the fresh, and leave out (or greatly reduce) the chile peppers.

Sautéed Broccoli With Toasted Garlic, Orange and Sesame
Broccoli was kicked around for years before anyone decided to have fun with it. For a while broccoli lay spent and lifeless, then went irritably crisp. This recipe advances at high speed with admirable results. I toasted garlic slivers in olive oil until sweet and nutty, added oyster sauce to round the edges, then a rustle of sesame seeds and a wisp of orange to pull the whole thing into focus.

Singaporean Braised Duck
The Singaporean flavors of star anise, galangal and molasses-like soy sauce are a natural with duck — they may seem unfamiliar for some, but they parallel the idea of pairing fruits or warm winter spices with the bird. Reflecting her modern sensibility, Cheryl Lu-Lien Tan took this recipe from her grandmother and tweaked it to serve the duck at a slightly pink medium rather than fully cooked. Of course, you may cook it through if you prefer.

Clams in Black-Bean Sauce
“Clams in black-bean sauce is another American mainstay: bright, piquant, boasting more loudly of its flavorings than of its clams,” Nicole Mones wrote in The New York Times Magazine in 2007. Adapted from her husband, Paul, this recipe comes together quickly. Salted black beans are paired with bright aromatics, a wine-infused broth and briny clams, possibly the best part. As Ms. Mones wrote, “Discovering the baby clams at the bottom in their little bath of broth is the dish’s final delight.”

Trini-Chinese Chicken
Chinese-style chicken is a dish you can find all over Trinidad and within the diaspora that has followed the nation’s emergence from British rule. The skin is fried into a lacquered mahogany. The meat beneath it tastes of five-spice, ginger and soy and is generally accompanied by a hum of oyster sauce mixed with the zing of the pickled Scotch-bonnet-pepper sauce that is seemingly omnipresent on the island’s tables.

Pretzel Pork and Chive Dumplings With Tahini
In Park Slope, Dale Talde engineered one of the most hunted-down bar snacks of 2012, a beer-friendly, street-cart collision known as the “pretzel dumpling.” Inside, there’s some slightly cured pork. Outside, a process of boiling, brushing, pan-searing and baking creates a skin with the crust and chew of a hot pretzel. The dipping sauce echoes what you might get at a deli, or in a bag full of Chinese takeout: strong mustard.
