"Very nice salmon patties (my own). The list of ingredients are mostly seasonings you will have at hand. Canned salmon and tuna can be quite bland unless well seasoned. Do use a tangy mayonnaise and not low-fat!"

A few of my favorite things - duck, a little sweet, a little spicy, a little citrus. And simple - really this comes together in a snap.

I developed this recipe in honor of Saint Patrick’s Day. I replace traditional cabbage with sauteed baby bok choy, and the whole combination goes onto a breakfast sandwich. The peppery sweetness of the bok choy goes nicely with the salty corned beef.

A shrimp stock fortified with the floral and smoky notes of dark Jamaican rum does much of the heavy lifting in elevating a simple fall bisque into something memorable and unexpected. Traditional aromatics—carrots, celery, and onions—are sweated with a deseeded Habanero pepper, which adds brilliant brightness. Thyme is the only herb employed, and its deep earthy-woodsy flavor rounds out some of the assertiveness of the Habanero. The creaminess of this bisque comes from full-fat coconut milk, which gently leans into the sweetness of the butternut squash. Finished with a splash more of dark rum, the ingredients—even those used in small quantities, like the lime zest—naturally cohere and confidently connect warm, autumnal notes with bright, upbeat Caribbean-inspired flavors.

There is no shortage of spices in this recipe, yet the end result amplifies cardamom. Combined with garlic, ginger and yogurt this blend forms a thick marinade which coats, perfumes and tenderizes the chicken. I like to smear it over a whole butterflied chicken

"This is almost too easy to be called a recipe, but I had to share it anyway. I came up with it one night when I wanted a nice meal but wasn't feeling too motivated. I love Crock-Pot cooking!"

My default method for roasting chicken involves smearing an herby, garlicky butter under the skin, so it's in direct contact with the meat. Then, I simply truss and roast at high heat for the first twenty minutes, lowering the oven temperature to 350 to finish.

This delicious poke cake with Irish cream and salted caramel is made with cake mix for ease, but you can also make it from scratch.
