Cacio e Pepe "Gelato"
I remember seeing a recipe for Grana Padano Ice Cream a few years ago on David Rocco's cooking show. It looked so delicious and easy. My version is adapted from WaPo's Parmigiano ‘Gelato’ and inspired by Sarah Jenkins’s Cacio e Pepe recipe here on the site.
Padrón Peppers with Toasted Cumin and Coriander
The Spanish Padrón peppers are eaten straight, after a brief grilling or stir-fry to give them brown blistery spots that greatly add flavor.

Kale-Romaine Caesar Salad
Caesar salad, done right, is a bowl full of contrasts: cool, watery leaves against dry, crunchy croutons; sharp lemon against rich cheese, and biting garlic against soothing egg. Most recipes focus on flavor; this one also unlocks the Caesar's secrets of temperature, texture, heat and umami. Kale and romaine make an ideal combination of greens, but all romaine or all kale is fine: just stay away from tender, wilting leaves like mesclun and Bibb lettuce. Using strong greens also means that the salad can be tossed up to two hours before serving, as long as it is kept cold. We use an easy microwave method to poach the egg, but the more traditional saucepan will work, too.

Zahav's Hummus Tehina
The secret to a great Zahav's hummus is an obscene amount of tehina, half of the recipe by weight, so it's important to use the best quality you can find.

Date + Comté bites
Date and Comté Bites are my Ace-in-the-Hole when I'm scrambling, heading to a party, and need a dish that's delicious+simple. I strongly recommend sticking to salty, nutty cheeses like gruyere or comté to balance out the rich sweetness of the dates.

Butternut, lentil and cucumber salad

Roasted wine grapes, walnuts and olives
This is a winemaker's recipe that is an interesting appetizer or even wonderful dessert -- especially when there is some red wine still left on the table. I saw a version of this in Food & Wine Magazine back in the '80s and have since modified it to improve on the outcome.

Whiskey mable almonds
Roasting nuts is one of the simplest and easiets ways to be creative about your food. If you love your snacks as much as I do, it's also a really good oppotunity to cut down on your intake of salt. The salt/sugar/spicy balance is a pretty personal thing, but here's a good starting point.

Golden Leek and Potato Soup
Most potato leek soups are smooth, creamy and decidedly on the richer side. This one doubles the ratio of leeks to potatoes, giving you something sweeter, chunkier and homier, brimming with soft pieces of potato and browned slivers of leeks. A tablespoon or two of heavy cream, drizzled into the soup just before serving, is an optional luscious touch.

Winter Citrus Salad With Belgian Endive
Late winter really is the time for the best citrus. Produce markets have piles of blood oranges, as well as navel and cara cara oranges and grapefruit, the flesh of each in different vivid brilliant colors. For this salad, use as many kinds of citrus as possible. If you can find pomelos, they add their own kind of sweet tanginess. The combined flavor of sweet and sour citrus, fruity olive oil and coarse salt is seductive.

Cod Cakes
Cod cakes are terrific with cod, but can be made with any white-fleshed fish. Poach the fillets in bay-leaf-scented water, then flake the cooled meat into a New Englandish mirepoix of sautéed onions and celery. Eggs and cracker crumbs will help bind everything together below a drift of spice. Make sure to leave some time to chill the resulting patties in the refrigerator – the cold will help them set up so they don’t fall apart in the sauté pan. A light smear of mayonnaise on the exterior of the cakes before you fry them will encourage the most glorious crust. Serve with a thatch of green salad, a bowl of chowder or a neat pile of slaw.
