Artichoke Heart Frittata
You can make this easy Italian frittata with the fresh, tiny artichokes that arrive with spring or, more quickly, with frozen artichoke hearts.
Singaporean Braised Duck
The Singaporean flavors of star anise, galangal and molasses-like soy sauce are a natural with duck — they may seem unfamiliar for some, but they parallel the idea of pairing fruits or warm winter spices with the bird. Reflecting her modern sensibility, Cheryl Lu-Lien Tan took this recipe from her grandmother and tweaked it to serve the duck at a slightly pink medium rather than fully cooked. Of course, you may cook it through if you prefer.
Chicken Tagine With Eggplant and Olives
Priorat, near the Mediterranean coast of Spain and a stone’s throw from Barcelona, produces wines with dark fruit flavors, spice, bold complexity and ample alcohol. To compete with reds like these, the food alongside must take no prisoners.It would have been simple enough to sear some rib-eyes, lamb chops or lusty sausages. But I looked across the Mediterranean to North Africa and came up with a tagine in which chicken is coated with robust spices and becomes more than mere white noise. Eggplant and olives round out the dish, and a splash of sherry vinegar brightens the sauce.If you have yet to equip your kitchen with a genuine terra-cotta tagine, you can cook the dish in a covered sauté pan or a fancy-pants tagine of enameled cast iron.
Five-Spice Shrimp And Pasta
Ice-Cold Schav
Nothing revives and refreshes in a heat wave like this ice-cold schav, made with the exceptionally tart herb sorrel. The soup is seasoned at each stage: You salt the sweating shallots, the cooking potatoes, again when you add the sorrel and finally again when all is combined, which seems like a lot of salt. But once the mixture is chilled, the flavors are masked and dulled so it will taste just right. Using the stems of herbs is a habit I've formed in general, but in the case of sorrel I wish it were an herb all on its own — that you could just buy sorrel stems. I've seen Instagrammable versions of the soup with the egg cut into pristine wedges and bright green watercress substituted for drab muddy sorrel, but I think the way to go here is without vanity: Scatter well-chopped hard-boiled egg liberally over the drab soup, and follow with the minced stems, also liberally.
Eggplant Mashed Potatoes
Sambal Goreng Telor (Hard-Cooked Eggs In Shrimp And Tomato Sauce)
Cold spinach soup
Orange-Scented Flan
Gluten-Free Apple-Almond Tart
This tart is inspired by a recipe by Jacquy Pfeiffer, from his cookbook “The Art of French Pastry.” The apples are caramelized first with sugar and spices, then spread in the pastry, topped with an almond, egg white and sugar topping, and baked.
Carlo Middione's Quick Fruit Souffle
Presidential Birthday Cake
This is a classic butter layer cake based on a recipe from Seth Greenberg, the master cake maker and the son of the founder of William Greenberg Jr. Desserts and Cafes, in Washington. He spent two days baking a $4,000 version of this cake for President Clinton's birthday in 1996. The recipe calls for a raspberry preserve filling, but use your favorite, then slather the cake with Mr. Greenberg's buttercream icing. The best part is that the cake improves with age, just as a birthday cake should.

Italian Almond Cookies
These delectable almond cookies are made with just a few ingredients. Though they’re typically Sicilian, similar versions are found all over Italy. A bit like macaroons, they are crisp on the outside, with a perfumed chewy interior. They may be baked plain, decorated with candied fruit or whole almonds, or made into thumbprint cookies, filled with a spoonful of good jam. Ideal to bake in advance, these cookies keep well for several days, ready to serve at a moment’s notice.
Nancy Macarons
These are the rustic original macarons that begot the smooth-topped, puffed up, ganache-filled, pastel food-colored sandwich confections we know.
Macarons
Filled with ground almonds and flavored with vanilla beans, these classic French macarons are soft in the center, with a crunchy meringue shell that shatters gloriously when you bite. Buttercream is the most traditional macaron filling, but you can substitute jam, chocolate ganache, dulce de leche or lemon curd. And feel free to play with the flavorings: Instead of vanilla, try a dash of rose water, some grated lemon zest or ground cinnamon. If you want to tint the macarons, add a drop or two of food coloring to the batter. These are best made a day or two in advance, and will last for up to 5 days stored airtight at room temperature.
Angostura Sour
Taillevent Pear Souffle
Brown Butter Coconut Financiers
These tender and very buttery financiers have a deep coconut flavor and a slightly chewy, almost macaroon-like texture from the addition of shredded, unsweetened coconut. When making the brown butter, be sure to let it get dark golden in color for the nuttiest flavor; you want it just shy of burnt. This is the ideal way to use up all those egg whites in your freezer.
Heavenly Necci
Cognac-Ice-Cream Sandwiches
This recipe came to The Times from Meg Ray and Caitlin Williams, the owners of Miette Cakes, a bakery in San Francisco. They reimagined a classic booze pie as ice-cream sandwiches, literally a children’s dessert for adults. They replaced the graham-cracker crust with homemade graham crackers, turned the mousse into ice cream and elevated it with a relatively abstemious dose of Cognac. On the surface, it’s a tasty trifle, but there is subtlety too, with a little cinnamon here, some salt there.
Heavenly Hots
This recipe appeared in The Times in an article by Joanna Pruess. The recipe came from Bridge Creek Restaurant in Berkeley, Calif. A few tips: Don’t cook the pancakes all the way through. You want the center to be a pocket of cream. The pancakes are so fragile that it may take a few tries to flip them. I used the thinnest, most flexible spatula I own, wedged it halfway under the pancake, letting the other half hang, then turned my wrist and gently laid it down on the other side. I recommend this over more aggressive flipping, which will tear the pancakes.
