Spring

We paired peppery watercress with bright rhubarb and sweet berries in this go-to spring salad.

This easy cake batter requires no mixer and comes together in minutes. The final result is a rich, custardy cake that plays perfectly off the tart rhubarb topping.

This crowd-pleasing surf-and-turf dinner features lots of fresh spring asparagus, making it just the thing for your Memorial Day cookout.

Ribbons of asparagus and two kinds of cheese make this spring quiche wonderfully decadent.

Marinate salmon in lemon zest and fresh dill, then grill and serve with crunchy chopped cucumbers draped in a coleslaw-like dressing.

Come springtime, sugar snap peas are so tender and fresh it's almost a shame to cook them. We prefer slicing them thinly and eating them raw with a simple dressing, like this creamy, tangy buttermilk one.

These crispy little fritters taste like a three-way cross between onion tempura, blooming onion, and onion rings. If you can't find ramps, use thin scallions.

Part of what makes this salad so great is the dynamic textures; the cracker-like baked lavash croutons and the crunchy cucumbers and radishes contrast with the creamy feta and soft herbs.

Sour cream and lemon zest combine for a sprightly sauce that complements smoked salmon in this 30-minute one-pot meal.
