Sweet Potato and Apple Hobo Pack
The hobo pack, a self-contained, foil-wrapped meal cooked in hot coals, is an easy option for outdoor cooking. Though this recipe includes a lot of fall flavors, it is great for summer cookouts, a change from the usual suspects. The key to success is to be sure the foil packet is tightly sealed so no juices leak out. Be aware that the intense heat of the coals will deeply char some of the food that’s right up against the foil, but to us that’s the best-tasting part.

Berry Jam
Jam made from peak-season berries is a far cry from anything you can buy at the grocery store. As the berries cook, the water in them evaporates, their sugars thicken and their flavors concentrate. What's left is the fruit's essence, which is why it's worth seeking out the best berries you can. This recipe works for several berry varieties, but note that some types are naturally more acidic than others, so adjust the fresh lemon or lime juice accordingly.

Spicy Mango Barbecue Sauce

Apple Gingersnap Crumble
Easier and homier than an apple pie, this gently spiced crumble feeds a crowd. If you don't want to make the bourbon cream, serve this with ice cream instead: Vanilla is classic, but ginger, green tea or salted caramel would also be terrific.

Apple Tarragon Sauce

Pigeon Peas With Mango
This dish is based on a recipe from “660 Curries,” by Raghavan Iyer. I’ve given you the option of using cayenne and sesame seeds instead of Mr. Raghavan’s garam masala, but I encourage you to make the spice mix if you can. You can find pigeon peas and curry leaves in Indian markets. Pigeon peas resemble split yellow peas in color and flavor.

Cold Cherry Soup with Mango

Gluten-Free Apple Crumble
In this unusual recipe by Alice Medrich, adapted from her gluten-free cookbook "Flavor Flours" (Artisan 2014), a combination of white rice flour and oat flour make for an apple crumble with a distinct crunch and butterscotch-like flavor. Ms. Medrich also uses an interesting technique with the apples, baking them halfway through before adding the crumble mixture, which keeps the walnuts from becoming too dark. She also doesn’t peel the apples, though you may if you’d rather. If you can’t find oat flour, you can make your own by grinding rolled oats in a food processor or blender until powdery.

Mango Lime Sorbet
This sorbet is tangy and not very sweet. I added only enough sugar and corn syrup to allow the mixture to freeze properly without developing ice crystals.

Fillet Of Sole With Greens And Mango Yogurt Sauce

Buttermilk Mango Curry

Millet With Corn, Mango and Shrimp

Strawberries in a Mango Sea
A ripe mango gives a bit when pressed, and its fragrance should be heady and sweet. To dice a mango, cut down the broad side of the fruit, slightly off center, from the stem end to the tip end. The knife should slide down against the flat side of the pit. Repeat on the other side, cutting as close to the pit as possible. Cut the flesh from the sides of the pit, following the curve of the pit. Lay each half on your cutting surface and score with the tip of your knife in a crosshatch pattern, down to — but not through — the skin. Lift the mango half, and press on the skin with your thumbs to turn it inside out. Little cubes will pop out on the other side, and you can easily cut them away from the skin. One summer I lived in Cuernavaca, Mexico, and I would gather mangoes from the ground in a park. If I had had a food processor or a blender, I would have made this every day.

Fruit Crumble With Quinoa-Oat Topping
Peaches or nectarines and blueberries make a beautiful color combination and a nice package of nutrients. The peaches contain vitamin C, vitamin A, vitamin K, beta-carotene and potassium, while the blueberries have anthocyanins, compounds that some scientists believe may have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

Sauteed Shrimp With Vodka and Mango

Tropical Oatmeal-Mango Cake

Gluten-Free Buckwheat, Poppy Seed and Blueberry Muffins
The buckwheat flour is high-fiber and makes a dark, richly-flavored muffin. Already a big fan of buckwheat flour in pancakes, I decided to try it as the main ingredient in a gluten-free muffin and love the results. It is a high-fiber flour and makes a dark, richly-flavored muffin.

Grilled Duck Breast With Miso, Ginger and Orange
Miso contributes a sweet, nutty flavor to this tasty marinade for duck, punched up with ginger and orange zest. Substitute duck legs if you wish (they’ll take a bit longer to cook), or use large chicken breasts if duck isn’t available. Here the duck breast is thinly sliced for a summery main-course salad, but keep the flavorful technique in mind for use throughout the year.

Mango Cheesecake
Now, I love cheesecake and I love mangoes, the mangoes best eaten in their natural state, and preferably in the bath. But the two together make a dessert that manages to be both comforting and elegant. The scented flesh of the fruit does more than add to the taste of the cheesecake: it transforms the texture, too. This mango cheesecake reminds me of those light French fruit-mousse tarts, with their glassy, mirrored tops. And the color! The radiant, golden yellow is instant sunshine in the kitchen, just as the taste is summer on the tongue.

Salmon on a Bed of Greens And Mango

Pavlova With Mango Puree And Berries

Apple-and-Black-Walnut-Frangipani Tart
The versatile black walnut can enhance any menu -- from the first course to dessert.

Sticky Rice With Mango
Also known as “sweet rice” or glutinous rice (despite being gluten free), sticky rice is a large white grain that, when steamed, becomes translucent, shiny and, well, sticky. In French, it’s called riz gluant or gluey, not much more attractive. There should be a better word for it, because it really is undoubtedly one of the best things to eat under the sun.

Mango Lassi Ice
I set out to make something more like a sherbet, a mango lassi ice. I calculated the amount of sweetening needed for the right texture and flavor in a blend of buttermilk and mango. As a general rule, the sugar in fruit ice should be 15 to 20 percent of the weight of the fruit. This time, I used honey instead of sugar. The result is a creamy, tangy sherbet.
