Pasta With Zucchini and Mint
This minty Roman-style zucchini is wonderful with pasta or served on its own.

Coconut-Braised Beef

Gremolata

Last-Minute Sort-of Spanish Shrimp

Sweet Whole Wheat Focaccia with Pears and Walnuts
This slightly sweet focaccia (three tablespoons sugar in the dough and another sprinkled over the top) is quite beautiful and makes a perfect fall or winter bread. It’s great on its own, and also great with cheese. I like to pair it with blue cheese in particular. There are sweet, nutty and savory flavors at play here, with the rosemary-scented olive oil and pears, and the walnuts tucked into the bread’s dimples.

Focaccia With Sweet Onion and Caper Topping
This is much like pissaladière, the Provençal onion tart. It’s a perfect time of year to make it, with sweet spring onions in abundance in the markets.

Beet, Potato, Carrot, Pickle and Apple Salad
This recipe was brought to The Times by Joan Nathan and was featured in her cookbook "Quiches, Kugels, and Couscous: My Search for Jewish Cooking in France." It's a hearty root vegetable salad enriched with hard-boiled eggs and tossed with a lively Dijon vinaigrette.

Soba With Green Garlic, Spinach, Edamame and Crispy Tofu
Green garlic and luscious spinach are both in abundance in the markets right now. If you can’t find soba (buckwheat noodles), you can serve the stir-fry with brown rice or other grains.

Shrimp Risotto With Peas
Shrimp shells are used here to make a subtle shellfish broth for the risotto. Make sure you don’t overcook the shrimp; they will take only four to five minutes to cook, and the contrast of their succulent texture against the chewy rice will be lost if the shrimp become rubbery.

Arroz Con Pollo Risotto
Why should anyone raise an eyebrow if an American chef decides to combine the best of an Italian cooking technique with a deservedly popular Spanish recipe? Anyone who says this Spanish-Italian creation is not authentic need only go in search of the only authentic recipe for arroz con pollo, or rice with chicken. For the Spanish-Italian variation, thanks go to Larry Wolhandler, the owner of Painter's Tavern in Cornwall-on-Hudson, N.Y. He is also responsible for its unwieldy name, arroz con pollo risotto, or rice with chicken rice. But the idea is clear: the ingredients are Spanish, the method of cooking the rice Italian. The result, with a few alterations, is a handsome and quick meal that would be complemented by a salad of orange slices and red onions with a few dribbles of olive oil.

Sweet Focaccia with Figs, Plums, and Hazelnuts
This is only slightly sweet, with three tablespoons of sugar in the dough and another tablespoon of cinnamon sugar sprinkled on top. What I find irresistible about the topping is the flavor of the rosemary-scented oil against the subtle figs and sweet-tart plums, and the nutty crunch of the hazelnuts. I use a small amount of cornmeal in my sweet focaccia dough; look for fine cornmeal, which is sometimes called corn flour.

Braised Spring Carrots and Leeks With Tarragon
Serve this sweet springtime dish as a starter or side dish, or as part of a vegetarian main dish with grains.

Veracruzana Vinegar-Bathed Shrimp

Tomato, Zucchini and Avocado Salad
Whenever you make a dish with uncooked zucchini, be sure to slice or dice it finely, so that the zucchini can absorb the dressing or seasonings. I like to eat this salsa salad with rice.

Whole Wheat Focaccia with Cherry Tomatoes and Olives
Even in mid-September, you can find sweet cherry tomatoes, and they look beautiful in abundance on the top of this focaccia. I combined them with black olives for a bread that transports me to Provençe.

Roasted Apple and Pear Compote With Candied Ginger
This comforting compote should be served warm. If you do want a little indulgence, add a dollop of crème fraîche to each serving.

Whole Wheat Focaccia with Peppers and Eggplant
I first made this because I had a festival of leftovers in my refrigerator – sautéed peppers with tomato and onion, and roasted eggplant. The combination made a delicious, typically Mediterranean topping. The peppers would suffice, but it’s even better with the eggplant. You can use one type of bell pepper or a mix, and if you want some heat, add a hot one.

Focaccia With Cauliflower and Sage
I love to roast cauliflower on its own, so I decided to roast it, along with fresh sage leaves, on top of focaccia.

Pasta With Mushrooms and Gremolata
This savory pasta is just one idea for gremolata, a pungent mixture of garlic, lemon zest and parsley. It’s terrific with the sautéed mushrooms and makes a great condiment for a variety of roasted vegetables.

Seared Red Rice With Spinach, Mushrooms, Carrot and Egg
Rice bran oil has a very high smoke point, so it's a perfect oil for searing and stir-fries where that high-heat seared flavor is desired. You can make this dish with any type of rice, but I love the red rice I’ve been finding in whole-foods stores, whether from Thailand or Bhutan.

Summer Tomato Gratin
When you bake tomatoes for a very long time, as you do here, they become quite sweet.

Moroccan Cooked Carrot Salad
There are many versions of this cooked carrot salad throughout the Middle East and North Africa. This one, seasoned with lemon juice, cumin, garlic and olive oil, is always a crowd pleaser.

Bulgur and Squash Kefteh
This mixture can be formed into patties, but it is just as wonderful and a lot easier to spread in a baking dish, served by the spoonful.
