Baked Polenta With Crispy Leeks and Blue Cheese
Baking polenta in the oven means you don’t have to stand over the pot, stirring the extremely hot, bubbling mass. Here, the polenta is cooked in stock for the deepest flavor. Then it’s topped with piquant crumbles of Gorgonzola dolce and crisp fried leeks, which add sweetness and crunch. You can serve this as a warming main course along with a crisp green salad, or as a rich and flavorful side dish to simple roasted meats or fish.

Caramelized Onion and Lentil Pilaf
Back in 2003, Nigella Lawson brought to The Times a recipe for chicken and apricot masala, and with it, she paired this dish, a caramelized onion and lentil pilaf. “The sweet smokiness of scorched onion and the depth of spicing you get from cumin, coriander and cloves more than balances out the rich texture of the rice studded with lentils and mustard seeds,” she wrote. “This dish is robust and earthy ballast. I might even have it by itself for supper, with no more than a salad of diced cucumber, dressed with yogurt and dried mint, on the side.” Perhaps you should do the same.

Rice With Rabbit
Memorable dishes sometimes come out of nowhere. One recent evening in Tarragona, just south of Barcelona, I wandered past a number of cafes and tapas bars. Txantxangorri, a Basque place serving rice dishes — not paellas — was the only one that had seats. The rice with rabbit, served in a terra cotta casserole, was simple, satisfying and, unlike the Michelin-starred dishes I had elsewhere in Spain, something I could try at home. With reds from Roussillon, a region that is practically in Catalonia anyway, I had my chance.If you do not have an earthenware casserole, you can make the whole thing, from stovetop to oven, in enameled cast iron.

Coconut Barley Pilaf With Corn, Chicken and Cashews

Brown Rice Salad With Mushrooms and Endive
Triticale is a hybrid grain made from wheat and rye, which farmers and health food stores alike had high hopes for in the 1970s. It is a good source of phosphorus and a very good source of magnesium, but apparently the yields were disappointing to farmers and it never really caught on among consumers. I had sort of forgotten about it until I came across it again recently at Bob’s Red Mill. I like its chewy texture and earthy flavor, both very similar to farro or wheatberries. Any hearty, toothsome grain works well in this salad, so I’ve given you a choice.

Three Little Asparagus Soups For Spring
The most daunting aspect of serving three asparagus soups is finding 18 little bowls. But unless you're having Nathan Lane to dinner, who cares if they match? Coffee cups, old-fashioned glasses, mugs, pairs of cupped hands -- all are fine.
