Strawberry-Rhubarb Upside-Down Cake
This humble dessert would never win a beauty contest when pitted against a towering layer cake swirled with frosting, but what it lacks in looks, it makes up in flavor and simplicity of preparation. The cake itself is light yet moist and soaks up the juice released by the strawberries and rhubarb while baking. Sliced almonds add a gentle crunch. It can be a bit tricky to unmold, so don't forget to line the pan with parchment and grease it generously with butter.
Strawberry and Pistachio Galette
With a double filling of homemade strawberry compote sitting on top of a layer pistachio frangipane, this elegant galette is a perfect way to showcase ripe summer berries. It is a bit more demanding to make than many other galettes, but you can do it in stages, making the dough, the compote and the frangipane a few days ahead, then bake on the same day as you plan to serve it so the pastry stays delightfully crisp. And if you miss strawberry season, make this with raspberries, blackberries or blueberries, adjusting the sugar in the compote to match the sweetness of the fruit (taste and add more sugar for sour fruit, less sugar for sweeter fruit).

Zibdiyit Gambari (Spicy Shrimp and Tomato Stew)
This astonishingly simple stew, adapted from Yasmin Khan’s “Zaitoun: Recipes From the Palestinian Kitchen,” is bursting with the fierce, passionate flavors that are emblematic of the cooking of the Gaza Strip. You’ll mash together garlic, dill and jalapeños using a mortar and pestle and cook them in tomato sauce to add depth. Once the stew thickens, stir in the shrimp until they turn flushed and tender. To serve, drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil and dot with toasted sesame seeds and verdant flecks of parsley.
Leeks With Caraway Seeds
Ember-Roasted Slaw With Mint
Inspired by what is undoubtedly the world’s most ancient method of cooking, ember-roasted cabbage is turning up everywhere, from the charred cabbage with muhammara and hazelnuts at the new Safta restaurant in Denver to the cabbage roasted in the embers and served with yogurt, sumac and lemon zest at Charcoal Venice in Los Angeles. This one features a sweet-sour dressing of sugar, vinegar and caraway seeds, with mint leaves stirred in at the end for freshness. Savoy cabbage is an excellent cabbage for grilling: The smoke circulates freely through its crinkled leaves.
Sausages and Sauerkraut With Apple
Sausages With Apples and Onions
There are lots of kinds of wurst, or sausage: bratwurst, bockwurst, knackwurst, weisswurst (similar to the French boudin blanc). Bratwurst is popular the United States, and there are some new high-quality packaged supermarket brands now available, or look for other types from a butcher shop. But let’s face it: Nearly any kind of sausage will taste great paired with caramelized onions and apples fried in butter.

Stir-Fried Cabbage With Cumin Seeds
Cabbage is rarely a side dish on its own, but it is in this recipe. It takes on some Indian flavor with caraway seeds and the garam masala, and it maintains its crunch with the quick heat of the stir fry. It is excellent with lamb.
Coleslaw With Mango
Okra Salad With Toasted Cumin
Even avowed okra-phobes love this salad, which is seasoned with a warm and earthy Moroccan spice blend. The okra cooks for only 2 minutes in salted water, and the resulting flavor and texture are somewhat reminiscent of asparagus. The salad tastes best at room temperature.
Brined-and-Braised Pork Belly With Caraway
Spring Carrot Pickles With Caraway
You don’t have to limit yourself to the young multicolored carrots that I’m finding at the farmers’ market right now, but they are particularly beautiful, at least until the colors fade with time. Carrots and caraway make a good marriage.
Sephardic Challah With Whole Spices
Challah is tremendously popular in the United States, among Jews and non-Jews alike. But it doesn’t say anywhere in Jewish scripture that challah is a braided, sweet, eggy, deliciously squishy bread of the kind familiar to most Americans; that loaf is Ashkenazi, from Eastern European Jews. The Sephardic and Mizrahi Jews from North Africa and the Middle East, have their own distinct traditional loaves. Here, use the raisins, eggs and full amount of honey to make a richer, festive Sephardic loaf that is delicious by itself; leave them out for a lean, savory Mizrahi bread that goes beautifully with Moroccan tagines and Middle Eastern mezes, salads and dips.

Roast Loin of Pork With Caraway, Lemon and Garlic
This recipe is a wonderful addition to a celebratory feast, or a weekend winter meal. Some advice if you can't find a loin on the bone: Buy a boneless rolled pork loin and stab it in several places with a knife, then push small amounts of the spice paste into the meat. Smear the rest all over. The aroma of caraway and clove sweetly permeates the meat alongside the sweet-sharpness of the garlic and the out-and-out sharpness of the lemon. The result is robust without being heavy, and the apples roasted alongside the pork provide a juicy edge and a beautiful accompaniment.
Rye Caraway Breadsticks
Rye and caraway have always been a match made in heaven, but until now I never thought of using them in something other than Jewish rye bread and rye crisps.
