Stir-Fried Balsamic Ginger Carrots

Stir-Fried Balsamic Ginger Carrots

The carrots need to be cut as uniformly as possible so that all the vegetables cook in the same amount of time. If the carrots are skinny (about 1/2 to 3/4 inch in diameter), simply cut them into 2-inch pieces; if they’re medium (about 1 inch in diameter), cut lengthwise in half before cutting into 2-inch pieces; if they’re large (about 1 1/2 to 2 inches in diameter), quarter lengthwise before cutting into 2-inch pieces. Blanching the carrots reduces the amount of oil necessary to stir-fry. Mince the ginger by hand; if you use a grater or microplane, the ginger will be too wet and will spatter in the oil.

Cranberry Parker House Rolls

Here's a delightful, tangy twist on the fluffy breadbasket staple; cranberry butter is brushed between two layers of dough then baked until golden. They're fun, they're unexpected, they're delicious. (Bonus: they can be made ahead and frozen up to two weeks before.)

Crisp Spiced Chickpeas

Canned chickpeas bear a closer resemblance to cooked-from-dried than any other canned bean: They’re sturdy enough to withstand additional cooking without falling apart. Even after a 20-minute sizzle in a skillet with olive oil, they stay intact, their exteriors turning crunchy while their insides become creamy. Serve these as a party snack instead of roasted nuts, and you’ll have a hit. (The New York Times)

Sautéed Endive With Balsamic Butter

Searing the endives so they retain some crispness, then topping them with balsamic butter, gives this dish, adapted from the cookbook "Eat in My Kitchen" by Meike Peters, its panache. Because it’s hard to make less balsamic butter than is called for, you wind up with enough for about a dozen endives, not just three; the endives portion of the recipe can be easily expanded to match, making this a great dish for entertaining. Or, use the leftover butter to top fish, roasted carrots and such. The butter keeps well in the refrigerator but should be used at room temperature; heating may cause it to break down.

Stir-fried Succotash With Edamame

While we’ve still got corn and peppers aplenty, make this Asian version of the American classic succotash. I love the combination of sweet and seared flavors in this dish.

Cheddar Cheese Puffs

Cheddar replaces the more traditional Gruyère, Roquefort or Parmigiano-Reggiano in this French recipe for gougères. The Cheddar performs admirably.

Peanut Brittle

Here is a recipe for the easiest candy to make: brittle. The only thing even remotely tricky about it is getting the sugar to the tint of brown you want -- not too light, and definitely not too dark, which can happen in a flash. You can use any nut you want with this, but do add some salt if you use unsalted nuts.

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.

Edamame Dip With Red Onion and Sesame Oil

This recipe came to The Times from Rachael Hutchings, a young mother and blogger who spent three years living in Japan. Ms. Hutchings was featured in an article by Julia Moskin about the young people redefining Mormon cuisine, which is often thought of as casserole heavy. This recipe combines edamame with cilantro and red onion and spices things up with sriracha.

Stir-Fried Brown Rice With Poblano Chiles and Edamame

The stir-fry guru Grace Young suggests brown rice for vegetarian stir-fries, and she’s right: the rich, nutty flavor and chewy texture make for a very satisfying meal. The trick to successful fried rice, whether you use brown or white rice, is to cook the rice a day ahead and refrigerate. Cold rice will not clump together.
