Onion, Raisin, and Garlic Compote

Put these out at a gathering, and we guarantee you’ll be hearing rave reviews for a long time.

Caramelized onions, melty Gruyère, and a deeply savory broth deliver the kind of comfort that doesn’t need improving.

Easy to make, impossible to stop eating.

This sauce is slightly magical. The texture cloaks pasta much like a traditional meat sauce does, and the flavors are deep and rich, but it’s actually vegan!

Salmoriglio is a Mediterranean sauce with herbs, garlic, and olive oil. In this version, kelp is used as the base of the sauce.

This side dish is flavorful enough to also serve as a main course.

Blend frozen mango, blanco tequila, and lime juice into these cooling margaritas. A Tajín rim adds a spicy-salty kick.

Serve these as you would falafel: in a pita, on top of a salad, or as a snack with a dip.
