“Boiled Water”

This Mediterranean classic, as ancient and almost as simple as boiling, is the quintessential beginner’s or just-plain-basic soup. It’s one you’ll cook forever.

Carne Asada Tacos

Carne asada translates simply to “grilled meat” in Spanish, but when uttered with tacos you’re probably talking about skirt steak. It’s a chewy cut and must be cooked quickly and sliced across the grain to guarantee tenderness, but the evenly distributed fat makes for rich and satisfying eating.

Eric Ripert’s Merluza and Green Lentil Stew with Orange Emulsion

In May 2020, with World Central Kitchen and City Harvest, we worked together and Le Bernardin was doing 400 meals a day that were going to doctors and nurses that were staying in our neighborhood in hotels. They were here from out of state, to support the New York doctors that were either too tired, or sick by the virus. And then at one point all those doctors and nurses left, went back to their states, and we cooked for shelters. So we were cooking five days a week, 400 meals for shelters, from May to December.” – Eric Ripert

Carla Hall's Pickled Cucumber Salad

Carla Hall’s Pickled Cucumber Salad

On our road trip for this book, chef Joe Randall took us to Mrs. Wilkes Dining Room, a Savannah institution. You’re seated and served family-style, with a spread of at least twenty classic Southern dishes. The one I kept returning to looked the humblest. It was a little bowl of cucumber slices. But each slice packed a pickle-y refreshing crunch from the two-step technique of salting the cucumber before marinating it. I re-created it here and added chile and dill. This is exactly what you need in a parade of rich dishes. — Carla Hall

Nigella Lawson's Toasted Marshmallow and Rhubarb Cake

Nigella Lawson’s Toasted Marshmallow and Rhubarb Cake

This is a relatively new addition to my rhubarb repertoire, but it’s been heavily in rotation ever since I first made it. Anyone who has a birthday when the hothouse pink rhubarb is in season gets it (and I do even have alternatives for those dim days when it isn’t, and I’ll get to them later). It is splendidly celebratory, but not dauntingly difficult. – Nigella Lawson

Nigella Lawson shared this recipe when she joined us on Food with Mark Bittman.

The Bittman Burger: Baseline Recipe

The Bittman Vegan Burger

At last, an easy meatless burger that you can grill, broil, or cook in a skillet. The handful of ingredients are available from the supermarket, and all you need for the mashing is a fork. The result is an attractive and delicious patty with some pleasant heft and chew. You can also cook the mixture like ground beef for taco filling and tomatoey pasta sauces. Or shape and bake it for a meatless meatloaf.

Chicken With Citrus Sauce

Chicken With Citrus Sauce

Here’s a pan-cooked version of this delicious sweet-and-sour dish, which is prepared (often grilled) at roadside stands and restaurants on many Caribbean islands. Serve this with rice. (The rice pictured above is just long-grain white rice cooked with half coconut milk, half water; really a treat.)
