Pumpkin and Saffron Jasmine Rice Pilaf

Greek Baked Beans With Honey and Dill
These beans become creamy as they bake slowly in a sweet and sour broth flavored with honey and vinegar. You can make the dish with regular white beans, which will require soaking, or with large lima beans, which will not.

Broccoli Rabe Timbale
A timbale is a savory custard, gently baked in a water bath and unmolded before serving. You can use either broccoli rabe or baby broccoli for this one; the rabe has a stronger flavor, with a bitter edge. Bake this in individual ramekins or in a 1- or 1 1/2 -quart soufflé dish or ring mold and serve with a marinara sauce.

Costa Rican Coleslaw
Here is a version of a recipe I learned from Chris Schlesinger and John Willoughby, in their indispensable guide to beachfront cooking, ‘‘Let the Flames Begin.’’ It has been central in my summer cooking repertory for more than a decade. Opinions may vary on the idea of hearts of palm and avocado in a coleslaw, but only until this dish is eaten.

Creamed Lima Beans

Platanos Maduros (Fried Yellow Plantains)
Here, two simple ingredients yield huge, complex results. There's something about frying deep yellow plantains in oil that brings out their sweetness. The crisp outside yields to a soft, sweet center, the complement to a platter of rice and beans and garlicky pork. But, to be honest, they're so good, they might not even make it to the table.

Mashed Potatoes With Chives
This is about as simple as it gets: classically prepared mashed potatoes – just potatoes, milk, butter and salt – get a generous handful of pretty chives stirred in. Be sure to add plenty of salt, and taste as you go; good mashed potatoes rely on it.
