Trout With Chive Butter
You can make this speedy dish casual and after-work-friendly or fancy enough for company. It all depends on how you garnish it. Using trout or salmon roe turns it into something quite deluxe, with the small pearls of caviar popping in your mouth. But a sprinkling of saline capers is nearly as delicious, at a fraction of the cost. No matter which you choose, the fish itself a snap to prepare. The butterflied whole trout broils up in under five minutes. After that it's smeared with a garlicky compound butter, which melts into a fragrant, savory sauce. Serve this dish with boiled new potatoes, crusty bread or rice to catch all the buttery juices.
Sake-Steamed Chicken With Ginger and Scallions
“Steamed chicken is not the kind of dish that makes my mouth water,” Melissa Clark wrote in 2011, when bringing this recipe to The Times. But she made an exception for this dish, inspired by Harris Salat, who helps run the website Japanesefoodreport.com. Here, a full chicken is steamed for about an hour and a half over a mixture of sake and water, leaving it soft and flavorful.

Smoky Outdoor Salmon
This rub, adapted from Cook's Illustrated magazine, can be applied the night before or an hour before too, and is excellent for all sorts of oily fish, like bluefish and mackerel. It becomes crisp and delicious, and outside of eating it raw on the bone, I can't think of an easier preparation.

Rainbow Trout Baked in Foil With Tomatoes, Garlic and Thyme
My friend Christine always makes salmon prepared this way when I arrive at her home in Provence after my long trip from California. It’s a great dish to make when you don’t know exactly when guests are going to arrive, as everything can be prepared in advance and the fish can be baked at the last minute. I’ve adapted Christine’s salmon recipe to rainbow trout, which are farmed in a sustainable way and less expensive than wild salmon.
Stir-Fried Soba Noodles With Long Beans, Eggs and Cherry Tomatoes
Tomatoes and noodles Asian style; the cherry tomatoes are cooked just to the point at which their skins split, allowing the fruit inside to soften just a little bit and sweeten a lot.

Red-Cooked Beef Short Ribs With Daikon
This technique, called red cooking, involves simmering meat with soy sauce, sugar and sweet aromatics like star anise and cinnamon. It happens in a wok, but instead of a quick high-heat stir-fry, it is a slow braise, more like a savory stew. Once the stew is assembled and simmering, it’s mostly a matter of waiting. Top off the liquid from time to time, but add only enough to barely cover the meat. The final step of cooking down the sauce intensifies the seasoning, accentuating the pungency of ginger and orange.
Deep-Fried Catfish
Craig Claiborne was the food editor of the New York Times for 29 years, and he opened the world of global cooking to generations of readers who knew little about even Italian or French food. But underneath it, he always had an abiding appreciation for the classic food of his childhood home in Mississippi. This simple, reliable formula for fried catfish can be applied to other relatively firm white filets. Mr. Claiborne’s love of corn oil reflects the era in which he cooked. Canola, sunflower or peanut oil will work as well.
