Soft-Shell Crabs With Curry Butter
Fans of soft-shell crab look forward to the season — late spring and early summer — with feverish anticipation. The entire delicious crab is edible and may be prepared in many ways; deep-fried, grilled or pan-cooked. Here they are sautéed in a spicy curry butter, which complements the crabs’ rich flavor. (The recipe makes more butter than is needed for this dish, but is wonderful to have on hand. Use extra for cooking vegetables or eggs.) Serve 1 large or 2 small soft-shell crabs per person.

T-Bone Steak Burger
The chef Yannick Alléno served a thick, succulent hamburger for his casual Paris restaurant, Le Dali. For those burgers, Mr. Alléno's butcher, Yves-Marie Le Bourdonnec delivered a mix of chuck and beef rib. But the butcher thought the American T-bone steak to be the ideal. The T-bone does not exist in France, but to make his point, Mr. Le Bourdonnec made his own. He combined a piece of filet, which is tender but less flavorful, with a piece of contrefilet, which is marbled and tasty, but slightly less tender.

Stir-Fried Leeks With Amaranth and Green Garlic
In April, I found piles of baby leeks, red spring onions, amaranth and green garlic at one stand at the local farmers’ market. I bought some of each on impulse, and this dish is what became of them. Amaranth is a beautiful leafy green used in the cuisines of China and Mexico. You can find it at some Asian markets and farmers’ markets.

Green Garlic Toast
Green garlic is harvested while still immature, before the bulb has a chance to fully develop the cloves we know so well. It looks a lot like a scallion, with a mild garlic flavor that’s bright and fresh tasting. You can use both the white and green tender green parts of the stalk, trimming away any yellowing or woody parts near the top. In this recipe, minced raw green garlic is mixed with butter, Parmesan and chives, then used to top toast. It’s pungent, herbal and sweet with a bite from the chile flakes. Serve these plain, or top with any number of embellishments – sliced avocado, sliced tomatoes, dollops of ricotta cheese, fillets of anchovies or sardines. They make an excellent nibble with drinks, or serve a large portion with a salad for a light lunch. If you’re not using it immediately, the green garlic butter will freeze well for up to 3 months. And the piquant butter can also be used to cook eggs, or tossed with asparagus, pasta or rice.

Whole Wheat Spaghetti With Green Garlic and Chicory
This dish is inspired by a classic oil and garlic pasta. I’ve added chicory, a bitter green that is much loved in southern Italy but underused here. It’s sold with lettuces in the supermarket, often called escarole or curly endive. Chicory contains a type of soluble fiber called inulin, which some studies suggest may have a positive effect on blood sugar levels.

Chicken With Apricot, Tamarind and Chipotle Sauce
This Passover dish from Patricia Jinich came to The Times in 2009. For Ms. Jinich, who grew up in Mexico, one of 40,000 to 50,000 Jews, European and Mexican influences ran through Passover and holiday cooking: chicken soups with matzo might feature jalapeños, while meat stews were paired with salsa. Ms. Jinich learned this recipe from Flora Cohen, a woman of Syrian background who taught her and other Jewish brides in Mexico City how to cook. Here, a combination of dried apricots and apricot preserves give this chicken a savory sweetness, while chipotles in adobo add a little heat.

Sesame-Crusted Pork Cutlets With Cabbage
Do you ever wish that the crackly outside of your fried cutlet tasted like — anything? Instead of throwing a bunch of garlic or even Cheetos into the coating, swap bread crumbs for a something that’s probably already in your pantry. By crusting your pounded-thin pork with crushed sesame seeds and shallow-frying for just a few minutes, each bite of juicy pork has a snap and crackle racing through, in addition to deep sesame flavor. To cut through the richness, take a cue from pork tonkatsu and serve these with extra-crisp wisps of cabbage and lemon. With such a minimalist ingredient list and process, you might think you need to add a thing or two, but everything you need is right here.
