Norwegian Apple Cake
Though quite straightforward, this recipe for Norwegian apple cake from Nevada Berg's cookbook “North Wild Kitchen” did raise a question. A whole tablespoon of cinnamon? Really? But it was not at all excessive, giving the cake autumnal fragrance and flavor along with a nicely burnished surface. What this recipe also offers is great flexibility. Though it calls for an 8-inch springform, it also worked in a 9-inch and a 10-inch, the latter providing a little less cake in proportion to topping (though no change in cooking time). Larger pans require more fruit. And on that score, in place of apples the recipe works well with fresh figs and peaches. Small purple plums, pears, apricots and even bananas are some other options to consider.

Figs in Blankets With Port-Mustard Sauce
This clever riff on the classic pigs in blankets comes from a Champagne bar, with branches in San Francisco and New York, where they’re made with fresh figs. Using dried figs gives them year-round adaptability. The figs are plumped in port and stuffed with Stilton, though any blue cheese will be fine. The port used for soaking is reduced to a syrup, and flavors a mustard sauce. The figs in blankets are a great holiday tidbit with white, red, rosé or sparkling wine, with cocktails or punch. Serve them alongside a salad or as part of a cheese course. They’re easily prepared in advance and frozen. The puff pastry is quick to prepare in a food processor using frozen butter. The figs in blankets can also be made with purchased puff pastry; one pound is what you’ll need.
Pineapple Upside-Down Cake
I've had plenty of bad pieces of pineapple upside-down cake — usually because the dough is too heavy or dry, and sometimes the overly shrill sweetness makes you want to quit living, at least for the length of time you are eating it. But properly prepared, this guilty pleasure is most welcomely retro, and in the recipe here, the cake, while not exactly dietetic, is not life-threatening either.
Baby Pumpkins With Seafood
This recipe is adapted from Las Ramblas, a tapas restaurant in Greenwich Village, where mini-pumpkins are filled with a creamy sauce and shrimp. You may substitute mushrooms for the seafood or one acorn squash for the Jack-Be-Littles. Pair it with a glass of Puilly-Fuissé.
Bourbon Milk Punch
With a place of honor in the New Orleans drink pantheon alongside the Sazerac and the Ramos Gin Fizz, bourbon milk punch is enjoyed morning and night in the Crescent City, but most commonly at brunch. Restaurants and bars often pride themselves on their particular rendition. This one comes from the famed French 75 Bar in Arnaud’s restaurant in the French Quarter. It is easily whipped up before or after a meal, and offers near-immediate gratification.
Il Mulino's Tartuffo
At a few spots in New York, the tartuffo rises to exceptional heights. At Il Mulino in the Village, the kitchen pays attention to the last course and transcends the customarily disappointing Italian dessert tray. Here, by combining tartuffo with a superbly foamy zabaglione, which is then strewn with crushed amaretti and fresh berries, dessert would seem reason enough to go to the restaurant.

Dirty Horchata
Horchata, a sweet cinnamon drink popular throughout Latin America, is typically made by soaking white rice in water, straining through a fine-mesh sieve to eliminate solids, if desired, then sweetening the liquid with sugar and cinnamon. But the horchata at Guisados, a chain of taco restaurants in Los Angeles, is different. It's made with whole milk and is served plain, or “dirty” with a shot of cold brew concentrate — and the chain sells up to 700 a day. This is an adaptation of its caffeinated version, and it serves a crowd. (You can leave out the coffee or halve the recipe, if you like.) Enjoy it with something spicy on a hot summer’s day.

Espresso Frappe
Tarte au Sucre
More than 75 percent of the world’s maple-syrup supply is produced in Quebec. In Canada the sap doesn’t start running until early March, when the nights are still freezing but the days are bright. Locals process the syrup in a cabane à sucre, or sugar shack, and harvest brings with it celebration, often with a multicourse meal that puts the maple syrup front and center in dishes like this tarte au sucre, or maple syrup pie.

Rhubarb Fool
Burnt Oranges With Rosemary
The charred, sugary rosemary is both rough and refined, making these oranges a gratifying end to a grilled meal.
Khachapuri Adjaruli (Georgian Cheese Bread Boat)
There are many different styles of khachapuri, the signature stuffed cheese bread of Georgia, but most are made by wrapping a pile of cheese in a round of dough, then baking until the cheese is molten. The most famous khachapuri is from Adjara, a region of Georgia on the Black Sea. It’s an open-faced, boat-shaped loaf that’s often served with an egg yolk and a slice of butter to stir in at the table. Traditionally, tangy imeruli and sulguni cheeses are used, but they are difficult to find in the U.S. This recipe, which is adapted from “Georgian Khachapuri and Filled Breads” by Carla Capalbo (Pallas Athene Publishers, 2018), uses a blend of mozzarella, feta and goat cheese.
Roasted Mushroom and Halloumi Grain Bowl
Like chickpeas and tofu, halloumi cheese is a sturdy vegetarian protein that browns and crisps when roasted in the oven. Its salty, chewy character is just one of the exciting bits about this grain bowl. Other highlights include crisp mushrooms, which roast alongside the halloumi; dollops of olive-studded yogurt; and whatever bright and crunchy herbs and vegetables you like or need to use up. To easily enjoy the full range of textures in each bite, instead of simply piling each element on top of the grains, layer them as if you are building nachos. It’s a small tweak, but one that makes for an even more satisfying bowl of grains.
Rum Raisin Hot Cocoa
Sweet Lavender, Maple Syrup And Carrot Ice Milk
In 2000, R. W. Apple Jr. called Sooke Harbour House, in British Columbia, "one of Canada's half-dozen best restaurants," praising its kitchen garden and its "more than two acres of herbs, vegetables and edible flowers, many of them rarities, gradually devouring the lawns around the house, tumbling down to the sea, scaling hillsides in every direction, a living tapestry of leaf, shrub and color." It seldom snows at Sooke, which lies in hardiness Zone 8, the same as Charleston, S.C., a beneficiary of benign Pacific breezes and currents. This recipe utilizes some of the herbs that grow year-round on the property.

Pastel de Choclo (Beef and Corn Casserole)
Pastel de choclo is found in many different forms throughout South America — cake made with corn, baked corn pudding or a layered casserole. This recipe is inspired by the Chilean version, a beef-and-corn casserole, which consists of pino, a flavorful beef mixture often studded with black olives, raisins and hard-boiled eggs, topped with corn pudding. It’s reminiscent of shepherd’s pie, but with rich corn pudding in place of mashed potatoes. In this interpretation, the pudding is slightly sweet and cheesy, the way my mom Silvia used to make it. It also swaps out black olives for meatier Castelvetrano olives, and frozen corn can be used when fresh is out of season. The pudding is mixed entirely in the blender and can be baked on its own as a rich, cheesy side dish in a well-greased cast-iron pan at 350 degrees for 45 minutes.
Leek and Mushroom Cottage Pie
Traditionally, shepherd’s pie is made with minced lamb and vegetables, and topped with mashed potatoes instead of pastry. If made with beef, it is called cottage pie. So it should follow that a vegetable version could be named gardener’s pie. Filled with a saucy, savory leek and mushroom stew, it’s a pie that will please vegetarians and carnivores alike.
