Chamoy
Chamoy, a vibrant and tangy family of sauces and condiments from Mexico, is traditionally made with fruit and mild dried chiles (and sometimes mango, tamarind or hibiscus flowers as well). To make your own at home, grab those stone fruits on your counter and simmer them with dried chiles until softened, then blend with sugar, tamarind, vinegar and orange juice into something electric and tangy. Taste along the way to dial in the sweetness and tartness, so it’s exactly as jammy or restrained as you want. Just like tajín, chamoy makes a delicious accent for watermelon, jicama and cucumber spears. It’s also delicious drizzled over fruit salad, layered into mangonadas or used on the rim of micheladas. Think of chamoy as the syrup on a sundae, but much more thrilling in flavor.

Mango Pepper Relish
This savory relish extends mango’s reach beyond its season — because your memories of the fruit shouldn’t be the only thing that lingers. Here, mangoes, bell peppers and hot chile are simmered in a syrup of lime juice and sugar for a condiment that pops with citrus and heat. Pair it with off-the-grill chicken or fish, dot it on creamy cheese or dollop it on toasted bread. This relish will keep refrigerated for up to 10 days and frozen for up to 2 months.

Cucumber Kimchi
This recipe came to The Times in 2011 as an accompaniment to bulgogi sloppy Joes, as envisioned by the chef Hooni Kim of Danji, but they add a tangy flavor to whatever they’re paired with. Making it is as simple as it gets — the cucumbers are quick pickled in rice vinegar and flavored deeply with gochugaru, or Korean red-pepper flakes. Serve it with the sloppy Joes, or alone, as a bar snack, with an ice cold beer.

Blue Ribbon Cajun Seasoning
Back in 2011, in his New York Times Magazine column, Cooking With Dexter, Pete Wells asked his son about his favorite foods. “It was a tie,” Wells recounted Dexter saying, “between sushi and the fried chicken at Brooklyn Bowl.” The chicken was a specialty of Eric and Bruce Bromberg’s SoHo restaurant Blue Ribbon, and this Cajun seasoning central to it. Adapted from “Bromberg Bros. Blue Ribbon Cookbook,” by Bruce Bromberg, Eric Bromberg and Melissa Clark, this recipe is ready in no time, using ingredients straight from a well-stocked spice rack, but it changes whatever it’s sprinkled on.
