Turnip, Leek and Potato Soup
A simple French soup that works well regardless of which vegetable gets the emphasis. This is a simple French soup. If you want to vary the proportions of vegetables you can; it works well whether you emphasize the turnips, as I do here, the leeks or the potatoes. Turnips have a slightly bitter edge, and tarragon makes a lovely sweet garnish. Chives would also work.

Roasted Winter Squash With Miso Glaze
Winter squash, already sweet and caramelized from roasting, makes as delicious a partner for miso glaze as eggplant.

Celeriac, Potato, Leek and Apple Soup
A sweet and savory mixture that works well as a soup. I’ve always loved the combination of celeriac, potatoes and apples, which I first tasted in France as a celeriac, potato and apple purée. The sweet and savory mixture works very nicely as a soup. I like to strain this soup after I purée it to get a velvety texture.

Leek and Turnip Soup With Kale and Walnut Garnish
I recommend that you make a quick stock with the leek greens, onion and turnips trimmings while you chop the vegetables. Just throw them in a pot with a couple of quarts of water, bring to a simmer, cover partially and simmer 20 minutes. Strain through a fine strainer into a bowl. Kale, which comes from the same botanical family as turnips, makes a complementary garnish and the crunchy walnuts contrast beautifully with the smooth, sweet-tasting soup.

Puréed Tomato and Red Pepper Soup
I noticed that the most popular boxed soup at my supermarket is a tomato and red pepper soup, so I decided to come up with my own version.

Chilled Pea, Lettuce and Herb Soup
This elegant soup is sweet and heavenly. The texture is silky and the consistency thick -- but only because there are lots of peas in it. I used water rather than stock when I tested this recipe, and it worked just fine.

Andalusian Chickpea and Spinach Soup
A simple peasant soup that is often served with toasted or fried bread doused with vinegar, pine nuts, hard-boiled egg and parsley added at the end, this is a filling and comforting soup that is still suitable for a late spring/early summer meal.

Fennel, Garlic and Potato Soup
This anise-scented soup is reminiscent of the classic potato and leek soup known as vichyssoise, but it’s lighter and contains no dairy. It’s good hot or cold.

Melon Sorbet
I’ve learned a lot about making sorbets from Jacquy Pfeiffer, the founder and dean of student affairs at the French Pastry School in Chicago. He taught me to use a small amount of corn syrup – about 5 percent of the weight of the fruit – to prevent the sorbet from developing ice crystals. A very small amount of honey will also work. I asked him what the least sugar I could get away with is, and he said it depends on the fruit, but as a general rule he uses 15 to 20 percent sugar. I decided to factor the corn syrup and honey into that weight, and my sorbets were beautiful, with great texture. You can use yellow or green melon for this as long as it’s really ripe and sweet.

Watermelon Sorbet or Granita
This works only if your watermelon is juicy and sweet. If you make the granita version, you can use less sugar and omit the corn syrup because the ice crystals won’t matter.

Salsify Soup

Citrus and Persimmon Salad
Winter is the time for all kinds of colorful fruit. Citrus choices abound, from grapefruit in many hues to brilliant blood oranges. Paired with slices of persimmon and topped with sparkling red pomegranate seeds, this kind of simple fruit salad makes a refreshing adessert. It relies only upon the seasonal fruits’ own sweet juices for flavor. If you want something more, add a splash of orange liqueur or limoncello.

Three Sisters Squash
The sisters in this recipe are the Native American staples beans, corn and squash, which together offer a delicious main course for vegan diners. It comes from Maria Marlowe, a Times reader in New York, who said that she used the dish to help convince her family that eating vegan didn't have to mean sacrificing flavor.

Roasted Grapefruit
In 2010, Sam Sifton, who was then The New York Times restaurant critic, made a list of the 15 best things he ate in New York City that year. For breakfast, he chose a dish from Pulino’s in SoHo, which is now closed. This quick-cooked grapefruit is not so much a dish as a magic trick, the fruit covered with a caramel of muscovado sugar and mint that transforms it into ambrosia.

Alice Waters’s Grapefruit and Avocado Salad
This simple, refreshing salad from Alice Waters, the founder and owner of Chez Panisse, the legendary Berkeley restaurant, can be served as a first course or to revive the palate between the main course and dessert. It came to The Times in 2010 when the Well blog featured a number of recipes from “The Food Network South Beach Wine & Food Festival Cookbook: Recipes and Behind-the-Scenes Stories from America’s Hottest Chefs."
