Stir-Fried Noodles With Tofu and Peppers
This simple stir-fry is a dish to throw together when you want something like fried rice but don’t have any cooked rice at hand. Begin soaking the noodles before you begin to chop the vegetables, and they’ll be ready to stir-fry when the other prep is done.

Rice Stick Salad With Shredded Vegetables
Rice stick salad is a terrific vehicle for vegetables. Play around with the ingredients here — if you have different vegetables than those called for, try them. You might shred lettuce in addition to the cabbage, add some bean sprouts, add a minced chili or some cayenne if you want a little spice.

Rice Noodles With Zucchini, Tomatoes and Fresh Mint
Zucchini remains in the farmers’ markets into the fall. Even if you can’t find fresh tomatoes, you can make this easy pasta with canned tomatoes. The days may be cooler now, but the dish will remind you of summer.

Eggs Poached in Buttery Sorrel Sauce
Here's a delightful brunch number that takes great advantage of the first sorrel of spring, with the zesty leaves folded into a sauce made of scallions and loads of butter. Add eggs and cook until just set, then scoop everything up with toast.

Pappardelle With Fresh Ricotta, Squash Blossoms and Basil Oil
Ricotta is one of the great undersung cheeses and can be used in dozens of ways. Bake it in a hot oven in an earthenware dish with a little olive oil and rosemary, then spread it on toast for an antipasto or snack. Mix it with chopped cooked spinach or chard for filling ravioli or layering into baked pasta. Or, as is done here, fold the cheese into pappardelle noodles with barely cooked zucchini and squash blossoms and serve with basil oil and grated pecorino for a sensational summer pasta.

Spicy Stir-Fried Japanese Eggplant and Cucumber
This light side dish is inspired by a more substantial pork, cucumber and garlic dish in Grace Young’s “Stir-Frying to the Sky’s Edge.” I’d never thought about stir-frying cucumber until I saw this recipe. It’s a great idea: the crunchy, watery cucumber contrasts beautifully with the soft eggplant. Make sure to slice the eggplant thinly, or it won’t cook through. This stir-fry cold is also good served cold.
