Grains and Beans
A play on Southern red beans and rice, this is a spicy, filling and highly nutritious dish. To make this meat-free, leave out the bacon, or substitute sliced mushrooms fried in olive oil for depth of flavor. But do use the hot sauce, preferably one with a vinegar bite to brighten up the dense heartiness of beans and grains.

Baked Risotto With Winter Squash
This is not a classic stirred risotto, in which broth is added little by little, requiring the cook to stir and stir. Instead, the rice is tossed with squash and cheese then baked under a layer of bread crumbs until fragrant and browned on top. Welcome as a hearty meatless main course, it may also be served alongside a roasted chicken. Use any kind of hard winter squash, such as butternut, kabocha or Hubbard. Here are more great risotto recipes.
Ligurian Risotto
This Ligurian risotto is not something you would actually come across in Liguria, that green and gorgeous coastal strip of northwest Italy. But I call it that because the components of my recipe are, give or take, the discrete parts of that Ligurian wonder-sauce, pesto.
Cannellini Bean Salad With Shaved Spring Vegetables
Like pasta, cannellini beans are a good staple to have on hand in a city kitchen pantry, and an hour of gentle simmering is usually all it takes. Obviously, they take a little advance planning. You can’t hurry a pot of beans, but you can cook them the day or even the morning before you need them. This a good habit to get into, as a small batch of freshly cooked beans is well worth the little effort it takes to get them cooked. (And by all means, use a real stovetop if you have one.) Don’t cave and go the canned-bean route — save those for emergencies or camping trips.

Grilled Skirt Steak With Garlic and Herbs
Grilling might just be the best way to cook up a skirt steak. The intense heat gives the succulent and flavorful cut a rich char that’s smoky and crisp at the edges. The trick is to get the fire hot enough and dry off any marinade before placing the meat on the grill. This will give you the deepest sear. Here, the meat is marinated in a garlicky herb paste flecked with pickled pepperoncini chiles. Other pickled peppers will work, too, so feel free to substitute pickled jalapeños if that’s what you’ve got. Or use a fresh jalapeño and a dash of pickle juice to get a similar hot and vinegary punch. Lastly, be sure not to overcook the meat. Rare to medium rare guarantees tender beef.
Grilled Bone-In Rib-Eye Steaks With Blue Cheese
The usual formula for cooking an amazing slab of steak is as simple as they come: salt plus pepper plus a short stint over a hot fire. But there are times when you want an extra shot of flavor. Some good crumbled blue cheese sprinkled on the hot steak so it melts over the top does just that, especially when you spike it with hot sauce and butter. I like to use a combination of direct and indirect heat when grilling a bone-in piece of meat; it allows a crust to form but not burn while keeping the meat juicy inside. But you know your grill best, so let your instinct guide you as to where to move the steaks and when you think they are done. And if blue cheese isn’t your thing, follow the grilling directions here but leave your meat bare except for the salt and pepper. If you start with good meat, you will never go wrong.
Pan-Seared Steak With Red Wine Sauce
You can use any cut of steak, either bone-in or boneless, to make this classic French bistro dish. Steaks cut from the tenderloin, such as filet mignon, are the most tender pieces of beef, though they lack the assertively beefy chew of sirloins and rib steaks. Adding brandy to the pan sauce not only contributes flavor; its high alcohol content and acidity help extract flavor from the pan drippings. However, if setting it on fire makes you nervous, skip that step and let the brandy simmer down for an extra few minutes to cook off most of the alcohol. Make sure to open a good bottle of red wine to use in the sauce here, preferably one that you’re happy to finish off with dinner. This recipe is part of The New Essentials of French Cooking, a guide to definitive dishes every modern cook should master.
Braai-Spiced T-Bone Steaks
Grilling meat is practically the South African national sport, crossing lines of wealth, geography and even race. Braai means grill in Afrikaans, and some say it’s the only word recognized in all of the country’s 11 official languages. There’s no reason this braai sout, a fragrant dry rub, can’t be used on steaks other than a T-bone. But the T-bone has had special status there since Archbishop Desmond Tutu, as part of a campaign to bring all South Africans together around the braai, pointed out that the shape of that steak mimics the shape of Africa itself. Serve with whole potatoes roasted in the coals, and drink beer or one of South Africa’s excellent wines.

Seared Rib Steak
A bone-in rib steak, 1 ¼ to 1 ½ inches thick, will feed two. Scaling up is easy; just buy a thicker steak. A two-inch slab serves three to four, and it requires only a few extra minutes in the oven. Then add steaks as needed, bearing in mind that each one should cook in its own skillet.
Gluten-Free Dessert Pastry
I worked with many different combinations of flours before settling on this one. I love the flavor of the oat flour, but it is so fine that when I tried using all oat flour the pastry crumbled much too easily. So I combined it with corn flour, which is finely ground cornmeal; Bob’s Red Mill produces the version I used. Millet flour will also work, but it has a chalkier flavor. The almond flour absorbs moisture and helps hold the dough together. The dough will crack if you roll it out cold, so I roll it between pieces of plastic before I chill it. Then I remove it from the refrigerator and let it soften just enough so that I can line the tart pans without it cracking.
Ashkinaze Rib-Eye
This rub comes from Alan Ashkinaze, the longtime chef de cuisine for Laurent Manrique, a celebrity chef of sorts. Steak, in Mr. Ashkinaze’s view, is crucial to the enjoyment of a grilled salad. And by steak, he means rib-eye, thick cut, on the bone. “I put a rub on it,” he said. “Cooking at home, over a charcoal fire, I want to have some spice and sugar to help make a crust.” He mixes sugar and salt, paprika and ancho-chile powder, tamps it all down with cumin, celery seeds, a little faux-Southern onion and garlic powder to create a mixture that manages not to obscure the meat’s beefiness but somehow to intensify it.
