All-American Paella

Seared Green-Bean Salad

Orange Jelly
Sam Bompas and Harry Parr call what they do “contemporary food design,” among other things. Their projects include building painstakingly correct models of St. Paul’s Cathedral in London and a Madrid airport terminal out of jelly. This recipe was used as part of the pair’s first job in the United States. It was paired with Campari jelly, and the dessert they made for a 2009 dinner in New York tasted something like a Campari and soda in jelly form.

White Bean and Fennel Dip
This velvety smooth white bean dip is made from whipped toasted fennel seeds and fragrant dark green fennel fronds. Use slivers of the fennel bulb to scoop it up, and serve it with a rye- and fennel-flavored cocktail called the Golden Bowl. One large, feathery fennel should suffice for both cocktails and dip.

Oven Fries
These fries have savory, crisp, dry edges, and they’re satisfying and somewhat addictive, just like regular fries. I use a mix of regular and sweet potatoes for this. Choose waxy potatoes, like new potatoes or red potatoes, which have a lower glycemic index than starchy russets.

Sauteed Wild Mushrooms with Shallots (Cepes Bordelaise)

Steamed Spring Vegetables in Warm Leek Vinaigrette

Grilled Marinated Rabbit With Lemon and Rosemary

Spicy Carrot, Parsnip and Potato Latkes
Indian flavors add a new dimension to potato latkes. I love the Indian flavors in these irresistible latkes. The heat comes from the chiles, the spice from the nigella seeds.

Leftovers Deluxe The Tuscan Way Ribollita

Chicken Breasts With Olives and Tomatoes

Duck, Wilted Spinach And White Bean Salad

Cabbage, Carrot and Purple Kale Latkes
These latkes are nutrient-dense, packed with health promoting sulfur compounds as well as vitamins K, A, C, and manganese, tryptophan, calcium, copper, vitamin B6, iron, and potassium. In order for this mix to hold together it requires a little more egg and flour; I use a combination of cornmeal, all-purpose and buckwheat.

Tuna Ceviche or Tartare With Avocado
Here are two versions of tuna tartare, one of them a classic ceviche. Be sure not to marinate the tuna in the lime juice for too long or the meat will turn grey.

Fresh Corn Tamales with Chanterelles

Tuna with Tomatoes

Whole-Wheat Focaccia
Focaccia is a flatbread, not unlike a very thick-crusted pizza. It’s an easy dough to put together. It’s a great vehicle for all kinds of vegetables, just as pizza is. Three variations on the flour mix follow the recipe; you can use more whole-wheat flour or less than is called for in this recipe, which uses half whole-wheat and half all-purpose. When I use Community Grains whole-wheat flour, a California flour made from ancient strains of wheat that is milled in such a way that it is very fine but retains all of its nutrients, I can get away with using a lot. Coarser whole-wheat flours are best used in combination with all-purpose.

Basic Corn on the Cob

Soba Noodles With Shiitakes, Broccoli and Tofu
Soba noodles are Japanese, not Chinese, but I love using them in Chinese stir-fries. They have a wonderful nutty flavor, and buckwheat has a lot going for it nutritionally – it is a good source of manganese, copper and magnesium, and it is also high in phytonutrients. To make a quick vegetable stock, simmer the shiitake mushroom stalks in a small amount of water for about 20 minutes.

Beet and Chickpea Salad With Anchovy Dressing
This is a typical Provençal salad. In France beets are sold already cooked, either roasted in wood ovens or steamed.

Oven-Steamed Cod or Mahi Mahi in Green Tomatillo Salsa
I love tomatillo sauce with a range of fish, from salmon to shellfish to the lighter fish I am focused on this week. I used cod for my recipe tests.

Rice Pilaf With Pistachios and Almonds
This dish is inspired by a number of Persian rice pilafs, but it’s simpler, and calls for much less butter than an authentic Persian pilaf. There are sweet and tart flavors at play here, especially if you use barberries, but apricots also have a tart edge to them. Rose water makes the pilaf wonderfully fragrant.

Miso Spice
Limiting miso to soup is like limiting Parmesan to pasta. For starters, you can dry it and turn it into a condiment (which happens to be reminiscent of Parmesan). Use this to season a whole fish, croutons or bread crumbs; sprinkle the top of bread with it before baking; warm it in sesame or peanut oil for a bagna-cauda-style dip.

Hot-and-Sour Soba Salad
I find any combination of noodles and hot-and-sour dressing fairly addictive, and none more than these earthy buckwheat noodles. You can make a meal of this salad if you add a little protein in the form of tofu, shredded chicken or shrimp.
