Edamame in the Shell
This recipe for edamame in the shell, brought to The Times by Mark Bittman in 2012, could not be easier. It can be made either on the stovetop or the microwave. Ready in minutes, it makes a perfect snack or complement to a dinner of chicken teriyaki with rice.
Lemon-Caper Dressing
Here’s a salad dressing that falls somewhere between special-occasion Caesar and “toss lemon juice and olive oil onto lettuce.” By adding a craggy paste of capers and garlic and a pouf of shaved Parmesan to the lemon and olive oil, you get a puckery, salty mix that’s packed with umami, just like Caesar, but isn’t weighed down by mayonnaise or egg yolks. It works great on arugula, Romaine, kale or radicchio; steamed or roasted vegetables; hard-boiled eggs; and even grains. The recipe developer's mom has been feeding her this dressing since she could chew. Ali adds a bit more garlic and lemon than what you’ll find here, so adjust it until it tastes good to you.

Broccolini and Edamame Salad With Coconut
Sprouting broccoli (or broccolini) mixed with edamame and coconut is typical of the inventive combinations favored by the British chef Yotam Ottolenghi. After blanching, the vegetables are seasoned with black mustard seeds and curry leaves, which makes for an extremely aromatic and compelling dish that’s good warm or at room temperature. As for the fresh coconut, you can buy frozen freshly grated coconut at many international grocery stores. Otherwise, to use a fresh coconut, use a screwdriver to poke two or three holes, preferably in the eyes of the coconut. Drain any water, then use a hammer to bang along the equator of coconut until it splits open, and scoop out the flesh. Place flesh in a food processor fitted with a grating disc and grate. One coconut yields more flesh than you’ll need for this recipe; freeze the extra for up to three months.

Basic Poke
Poke (pronounced POH-kay), is a Hawaiian raw-fish salad made with marlin and ahi (yellowfin) or aku (skipjack) tuna. I make my own version of poke now, here where I live in Oregon, when the weather is good and hot. I drive over to my local fish market, and pick up some fresh kajiki marlin, which I cut into cubes. I buy my seaweed pickled in a bottle from an Asian food market, and I chop a small bunch with half a white onion, toss the garnish onto the cubed marlin in a stainless-steel bowl, squeeze a teaspoon or two of fresh wasabi onto it and mix in splashes of tamari sauce.
Popcorn Soup
Sautéed Kale With Garlic and Olive Oil
This recipe from 1992 was ahead of the curve on the kale trend. It gives a good basic preparation for this now ubiquitous leafy green: trim, blanch, drain, sautée (do not overcook), then serve immediately and often.

White Tepary Bean and Potato Purée
Tepary beans are very small beans native to the Southwest and Mexico. They are among the most drought-tolerant foods in the world – they would have to be, grown as they are during the extremely hot, dry summers in the Sonora desert and southern Arizona. A dietary staple of native American tribes in Arizona, they are very high in protein and have a low glycemic index. There are two varieties, brown and white. I’m using small white tepary beans here; regular small white navy beans can be substituted. The teparies have a particularly sweet, meaty flavor. The purée, which is in some ways like a white bean brandade, isn’t a main dish, it is more of a comforting, high-protein stand-in for mashed potatoes. But it is substantial.
Turkey Tamales
Tamales are a holiday staple for Mexican-American families from the Rio Grande Valley up to North Texas, and not just at Christmas. “We have a big market for Thanksgiving tamales,” said Cyndi Hall of Tamale Place of Texas, in Leander, near Austin. Although Ms. Hall said she’s seen more families buy tamales than ever before, many still keep the tradition of coming together to make them. You can cook up a turkey breast or extra legs for tamales to have with the Thanksgiving meal, or make the tamales with leftover turkey for the long weekend. They aren’t difficult, but they do take time, so the more hands you have for your assembly line, the quicker it goes. Corn husks and masa mix for tamales can be found in markets that sell Mexican ingredients; make sure you get the masa for tamales (Maseca is the most widely available brand), not the finer, drier tortilla masa harina.
