Vanilla Pudding
If you can start with truly natural dairy — definitely not ultrapasteurized and ideally bought from a farm or a farmers’ market— you are really ahead of the game. Real vanilla beans also make a palpable difference. I have stopped making vanilla pudding with vanilla extract. Although the flavor of extract is perfectly acceptable, when the dominant flavor is vanilla, you can really taste the difference if you start with a good bean.

Grilled Pork Skewers With Peanut-Basil Sauce
Peanut butter is more than just a sandwich spread, or a perfect accompaniment to chocolate. It can also substitute for tahini or be a worthy addition to certain meats. Here, it serves as the basis of a dipping sauce and marinade, a counterbalance to smoky pork skewers. A great warm-weather dinner, it's ready in minutes, on the grill pan, the grill, or even the broiler.
Danish Dough
This streamlined process for making Danish dough gives you flaky, crisp, buttery pastry with a fraction of work that the traditional method requires. The only trick to this recipe is planning for the considerable resting time. Break up the work over a few days to simplify the process. If you don’t have a food processor, cut the butter into 1/4-inch pieces and chill until firm. Fold the cold butter pieces into the flour mixture and continue with the recipe as written. If you are using this dough to make our pear and almond Danish braid, add 1 teaspoon (2 grams) coarsely ground fresh cardamom to step 1, along with the flour, sugar, yeast and salt.

Orange Cake, Ancona-Style
Orange cake is a terrific dessert to serve after the rich, meaty stews of winter: boeuf bourguignon, short ribs, lamb tagine. The method that Marcella Hazan uses here — poking holes into the cake and letting orange syrup seep in — has a similar effect to brining: what would otherwise be a dry cake becomes flavorful, fragrant, and juicy. And it’s even better than brining, because it always works, takes no time, and also makes the cake last longer.
Free-Form Apple Or Pear Tart
Dessert Galette Pastry
A galette is a free-form pie, more rustic than a tart, that is baked directly on a sheet pan or baking stone. Although they’re usually made with classic buttery pie dough or puff pastry, I’ve developed this yeasted dough recipe, which is delicate and tasty but not too rich. The yield is enough for two galettes, but has only 60 grams of butter (about four tablespoons). It’s sort of a cross between a pizza dough and pie-crust dough, wholesome because of the addition of whole-wheat flour but not heavy. Almond flour contributes a nutty flavor and delicate texture, but it’s optional. The trick is to roll it very thin, then freeze it right away so that it doesn’t continue to rise and become too bready. Make sure to dust your work surface well before you roll out the pastry, and to let the dough rest for a few minutes after each few passes with the rolling pin so that it doesn’t shrink back, as yeast doughs do. If you keep letting it rest, you won’t have trouble achieving a thin 12- to 13-inch round.

PBJ Sandwich Cookies
Cookies made with peanut butter seem to keep getting better, especially as we learn to appreciate salty desserts. The peanut-butter-and-jelly sandwich cookie recipe here was inspired by a nearly savory PBJ dessert at Momofuku Ssam Bar a couple of years ago.
Buttermilk-Glazed Pineapple-Carrot Cake
This easy pineapple-carrot cake first ran in The New York Times Magazine in the spring of 1972, and it is one of the recipes that former Times columnist Joyce Purnick clipped and saved for decades in her recipe file. This is a snacking cake, mighty sweet, which benefits from a cup of coffee or another bitter drink to cut through the sugar. It might remind you of Jamaican black cake. Pour some rum on top if you so desire.
