Spinach and Onion Tart
This is a classic combination for a quiche, but it’s lighter, with a whole-wheat and olive oil crust. If you don't have the time to make the crust, store bought will work just fine.
Onion and Zucchini Frittata to Go
One of my favorite Provençal omelets is a sweet onion omelet, whose name in Provençal means “harvester’s omelet.” Workers would carry these types of omelets to the fields and eat them as a midmorning meal. I think they’re suitable for just about any meal.
1958: Eggnog
This recipe appeared in The Times in an article by Craig Claiborne. As Freeman pointed out, ''It's important to get good farm-fresh eggs, with really orange yolks and really thick cream; these are the main constituents of the drink.'' Halve the recipe for a smaller gathering.
Lentil Pâté With Cumin and Turmeric
Lentils and curry flavors go together beautifully. This pâté tends to be dry if you overcook it, so remove it from the oven when it’s just set, before the top cracks.
Forget-It Meringue Torte
Heat the oven to 425 degrees. Prepare your meringue. Place it in your oven, turn it off, and head to bed. (Make sure not to peek!) In the morning, you’ll have a pavlova. Craig Claiborne and Pierre Franey brought this clever recipe, Molly Chappellet, an owner of Chappellet Vineyards, to The Times in 1978, and Amanda Hesser rehashed it in 2006. It’s a perfect casual dessert for a dinner party, especially if the day before looks busy. Serve it with the raspberry sauce, as suggested, to cut through any sweetness.
White Bean Stew With Carrots, Fennel and Peas
A supply of dried white beans in the pantry means you can always make some sort of white bean stew without a trip to the store. White beans are welcome in any season, though this dish is perfect for spring, with its bright green peas. Use any kind of white bean: ordinary white northern or navy beans, larger cannellini or corona beans or, as pictured here, a small Italian heirloom variety called purgatory bean. This stew is versatile; it's equally delicious served hot or at room temperature, and it can be a first course, a main course or part of an antipasto. Finish with a drizzle of good, fruity extra virgin olive oil. The spicy herb topping makes a bright embellishment.
Corn Pudding With Roasted Garlic and Sage
This comforting pudding has a rich, creamy texture, but the only “cream” comes from the juice of the corn kernels, which are puréed in a blender with a small amount of milk. Toasted garlic has a rich, earthy flavor.
Pasta in Broth
Asparagus With Mustard Vinaigrette
Here is an easy, springtime recipe that takes no time at all and puts the light flavors of the season right onto your table. Cooking time is key: both the asparagus and the eggs must be watched carefully. Arrange everything on a plate beautifully, and throw open the windows to spring.
Broiled Leeks Vinaigrette
A classic French first course, cooked leeks dressed with a mustardy vinaigrette can be wonderful or dull, depending on the size of the leeks. Don’t use giant ones; choose medium to small leeks for tender results. A few minutes under the broiler adds flavor to this version, which is served warm.
Cooked Butterscotch Scotch Eggnog
Eggplant Parmesan Deconstructed
Samfaina
This Catalan dish is akin to ratatouille, the French dish that rummages around in the summer garden to combine eggplant, zucchini, bell peppers, tomatoes and onions in a pot that simmers over low heat. The vegetables soften and collapse into one another, and the flavors meld. Samfaina goes further, though: The ingredients are chopped into very small pieces, then cooked for several hours until the mixture is so thick and caramelized that it almost resembles a vegetable marmalade. It’s often used as a sauce for rabbit, chicken or salt cod, but it can also be a side dish unto itself. It is a time investment — lots of chopping to be done before hours of cooking and simmering — but your efforts will yield dinner for the rest of the week. The samfaina will taste better the next day, and it’s delicious hot or cold. Spoon it on a sautéed or grilled piece of fish, grilled sausages, poached eggs or a thick piece of toast.

Black Bean Pâté
I prefer to cook my own black beans for this pâté. With white and red beans, the difference between canned and home-cooked isn’t significant enough to matter in the pâté. It does matter with the black beans, though. This tastes like a very light version of refried beans.
Winter Tomato Quiche
You can make a tomato quiche off-season using canned tomatoes for a rich tomato sauce that you blend with the custard filling. When tomatoes are in season I use the same filling but line the tart shell with sliced tomatoes.
Lemon Grass Ice Cream
South Carolina Pecan Tartlets
The spring of 2013 saw us down in Charleston, S.C., a stunning city, rich with history both sad and ecstatic, in a region that offers a tremendous bounty of fresh ingredients and regional flavors. We had the vague idea of cooking a holiday feast to celebrate the season — one that was grand and nondenominational — that would help banish memories of winter. These little pecan tarts helped a great deal. They're ideal for dinner parties, and reward the use of fresh Southern pecans.
