Caldo Verde With Lobster

Portuguese Kale-and-Salt-Cod Chowder

French Salt Cod and Potato Brandade
Your feelings about salt cod may depend on where your roots are. If your memories of the dish evoke words like bland and woolly, you likely had it in the Midwest. If you grew up in a Portuguese or Caribbean community, you may have more fond recollections. This recipe, common in France, is an opportunity to give salt cod a second chance, or to try it for the first time. The cod should be rinsed and soaked overnight, but that doesn’t take much effort. For tender fish, the trick is not to overcook it. Keep the flame low, just under a simmer. Cooking the fish in a combination of milk and water, along with a few aromatics like bay leaf, thyme, clove and peppercorns, will keep the fish sweet. While the cod is warm, flake it into a bowl and roughly mash with potatoes and moisten with garlicky olive oil and cream. A bit of cooking liquid is added to lighten the mixture. Serve smooth or chunky, as you like.

Joann Coats's Codfish Balls

Halibut, Chard and Potato Casserole
This is based on a comforting Majorcan dish that is traditionally made with hake, a fish that isn’t as easy to find here as halibut or Arctic char, both of which I’ve used for the dish. Pacific halibut is the type that gets the Environmental Defense Fund’s highest rating. Make sure to cover this tightly so the fish doesn’t dry out. An hour seems like a long time to cook fish, but the fish is well insulated and won’t dry out.

Scallop Napoleon With Crisp Potatoes

Sea Scallop Sandwiches With Citrus Juices

Darina Allen's Shepherd's Pie
This is an adaptation of an irresistibly homey recipe from the Irish chef Darina Allen's cookbook “Grow Cook Nourish: A Kitchen Garden Companion in 500 Recipes.” She devised it for leftover roast duck and gravy, but here, meaty duck legs are braised especially for the dish (they may be cooked up to 2 days in advance). The topping is an earthy blend of potato and parsnip, a brilliant counterpart to the rich saucy filling. To be true to the spirit of the recipe, you should feel free to replace the duck with other combinations of cooked meats, vegetables or mushrooms. You’ll need 5 to 6 cups of filling in total.

Elvis's Fried-Potato Sandwich
It is perhaps not advisable to follow an Elvis Presley diet for more than a meal or two. But for one? Let us take care of business. Fried bacon, onions, potatoes, soft white bread sliced with mustard: this is a glorious, if greasy feast. Presley led a life in which he snacked without guilt. Although he never heard of it, he lived deeply within the Greek philosophy of eudaemonia, meaning “human flourishing.” Try it for lunch some time. (Sam Sifton)

Italian Braised Greens And Potatoes

Veal Shanks With Preserved Lemon

Peruvian Cheesy Potato Soup With Spicy Herb Sauce
Chuño, a small bright-white dried potato, adds a slightly earthy taste and chewy texture to this soup. If you cannot find chuños (they look like white pebbles), you can substitute russet potatoes, as detailed in the note here. In Peru, this soup is served with the chile-herb sauce called uchucuta, which adds sour and spicy notes to the broth.

Potato-Parsnip Gratin

Carrot, Parsnip and Potato Colcannon
In anticipation of Thanksgiving, I was playing around with colcannon, thinking it would be nice to make this year’s mashed potatoes with a twist. Colcannon is an Irish dish that traditionally pairs mashed potatoes with cabbage or kale. I decided to broaden the range of combinations, choosing different vegetables to mix with the potatoes, and used carrots and parsnips to great effect. Carrots and parsnips, whose flavors are quite similar, outweigh the potatoes in this sweet, light version. Scallions are traditional in colcannon, but I wanted something with a bit more substance, so I used leeks instead. I cooked them until soft in a little olive oil and stirred them into the purée with warm milk and butter. The resulting mashed potatoes are beautiful, delicious and healthful, too. Because parsnips can be fibrous, I recommend straining the purée or putting it through a food mill.
