Sweet Potato, Pumpkin and Apple Puree
This mixture of sweet potatoes, savory pumpkin and tart apples is a variation on my sweet potato puree with apples. For the best flavor, I suggest you make it a day ahead.

Campari Jelly
Shimmering, brightly colored gelatin is the chosen medium of Sam Bompas and Harry Parr, who have built painstakingly correct models of London’s St. Paul’s Cathedral and Millennium Bridge, and a Madrid airport terminal complete with tiny airplane out of the stuff. The Campari jelly used here was part of the duo’s first job in the United States, a dessert for a dinner in New York in 2009. This jelly was an outer layer, molded over a jelly made with orange juice, and the result was something like a Campari and soda, but in jelly form.
Wheat Berry and Tomato Salad
Whole wheat berries lend themselves to both summer and winter dishes. Much of the flavor in this salad comes from the tangy juice of chopped tomatoes, almost like a marinade for the chewy wheat. The salad is all about texture, with crunchy celery (or cucumber) and soft feta contrasting with wheat.
Morning Couscous With Oranges and Dates
This is a delicious way to enjoy couscous. You can reconstitute the couscous the night before and keep it in the refrigerator overnight. All it will need in the morning is a steam in the microwave and the addition of the oranges.
Papaya Sorbet
Spicy Rum Punch
Here is a rum punch to suggest parties near a warm ocean and sand beneath your feet. It’s an old-fashioned concoction, and you’ll need to raid your spice cabinet for this. Pour it over ice and give thanks for the warming comfort of good rum.

Buckwheat Harvest Tart
This vegetarian tart is trifle elaborate, but it's the sort of substantial dish that even meat-eaters will enjoy. It came to The Times in 2012 from the self-taught vegetarian chef and blogger, Sara Forte.
Chocolate Port Sorbet
The chef Michel Richard spends most of his waking hours running from his French-California restaurant, Citrus, in Los Angeles, to his three less-ambitious French-California restaurants in Santa Barbara, Calif., Washington and Baltimore -- all called Citronelle. He knows he should take a little time for a diet and exercise regimen, but says he's too busy conjuring up ways to make French food more accessible, more casual and more in keeping with what Americans say they want to eat. What Americans say they want to eat (light) and what they actually consume (rich) make life difficult for most chefs. After 15 years working as a pastry chef in the U.S., Mr. Richard determined that what Americans want to eat is light, but with a strong taste.
Pan-Fried Broccoli Stems
This was an experiment and now it is a keeper. Peel broccoli stems, slice them thin, and pan-fry in hot oil just until the slices are charred on the edges, then flip over and brown for just a little bit of time on the other side. If you do this just right, the medallions will have edges that are slightly crispy with that wonderful fried flavor, and tender interiors. With a little salt (or even without) they are irresistible. One stem’s worth of medallions will disappear quickly, so count on 1 per person (at least!). Although you will use a fair amount of oil for frying, it doesn’t all get absorbed by the broccoli stems.
Spinach Salad With Ten Acres Lodge Maple-Mustard Dressing
Butternut Squash and Sage Latkes
Winter squash and sage is one of my favorite flavor combinations. Make sure to squeeze as much juice out of the onion as you can before you add it to the other ingredients.
Buckwheat Crêpes
My favorite French street food, these are easy crêpes to make. If you keep them in the freezer, you can pull one out and top it with blanched spinach and a fried or poached egg for a quick and delicious meal. In France the crepe is made on a large, flat, hot griddle, and the egg is cracked right on top of it. That doesn’t work well in a home crêpe pan. It’s easier to have the crêpe already made and then top it with the fried egg.
Maple-Glazed Roast Loin Of Pork With Apple Puree
Frittata With Brown Rice, Peas and Pea Shoots
I often add leftover rice to gratins, something I learned to do in Provence. Here I decided to make a substantial frittata instead, with rice as part of the filling. Although I used brown rice, Calrose, basmati and jasmine rice also work well.
Spicy Carrot and Spinach Latkes
This dish would work as a low-carb alternative to traditional potato latkes. This blend yields 15 to 16 latkes. The addition of nigella seeds adds a nutty, addictive, flavor. As for toppings, you can use the classic sour cream or thick Greek style yogurt, or be a bit more adventurous and try a favorite chutney or raita, a mixture of yogurt and chopped cucumber with spices.
