Make Ahead
Grilled Jerk Chicken
The longer you can let this chicken rest in the marinade (up to 24 hours), the better the warm, aromatic, fiery spices will penetrate the meat.
Gluten-Free Coconut Bread
We’ve found that the best gluten-free recipes rely on a custom blend of flours and starches. To make your own sorghum flour, blitz whole sorghum to a powder with a Vitamix blender or a NutriBullet.
Crab Cakes with Snap Pea Salad
A mixture of almond meal and cornmeal replaces traditional breadcrumbs in these scallion- and mint-packed crab cakes. The raw snap pea salad is crunchy and refreshing—and it’s the perfect way to complete the meal.
Sheet-Pan Brownie Thins
These sheet-pan brownies don't require any special equipment. The batter gets spread into a thin layer yielding rich, chewy brownies that are about 1/4-inch thick.
Slow-Cooker Shredded Chicken
Freeze small portions of this versatile, flavorful chicken to make easy work of tacos, salads, and sandwiches.
Cloud Bread
Used for sandwiches, flatbreads, toast, or desserts, "Cloud Bread" is a simple, 3-ingredient recipe that offers a high-protein, low-carb, low-cal, gluten-free alternative to bread. Adding seasoning like herbs, spices, or honey helps boost flavor while keeping this "bread" health-focused.
Pound Cake With Blueberries and Lavender Syrup
We used dried lavender in this syrup because it gives the syrup a lovely pale hue. Fresh lavender won't lend the same color, but it does give the syrup a more powerful floral flavor.
Raspberry Crème Fraîche Tart with Lavender Honey
Here, lush summer raspberries are framed by a rich crust and a cool, creamy layer that underlines their tart juiciness. A drizzling of warm lavender honey draws out a luxurious floral sweetness—put out the extra honey in a crock so everyone can add as much or as little as they like.
Madeleines With Lavender Honey
These cake-like cookies are perfect with a cup of tea. Madeleine pans are available at cookware stores.
Sweet-Cream Coffee Butter
Don't just wake up to coffee and toast, wake up to coffee on toast with this caffeinated breakfast spread that's reminiscent of your favorite milky latte.
Homemade Spiced Coconut Chips
Customize this addictive crunchy snack to your heart’s content with your favorite sweetener and ground spices.
Pasta with Ramp Pesto and Guanciale
Guanciale, a type of Italian bacon, and ramps, an early-spring green onion, make this pasta unforgettable—but if you can't find them, pancetta and scallions will work too.
Easy Fruit Tart With Pecan Cookie Crust
Here, lemon curd-spiked whipped cream fills an easy press-in crust. Sprinkle berries on top for a simple finishing touch, or arrange sliced fruit in a rose-like pattern for a stunning presentation.
Kansas City Sweet and Smoky Barbecue Rub
Sweet rather than salty, flavorful rather than fiery, this seasoning mix contains mustard in the style of a Memphis rub and chili powder in the style of Texas.
Singaporean Chili Crab
This spicy, tangy, rich seafood dish may have several elements, but once they all come together it's absolute magic.
Buttermilk Beer Beignets
These airy doughnuts are served with Singaporean Chili Crab at Starry Kitchen in Los Angeles.
Bo La Lot
Grilled or sautéed, these Vietnamese ground beef–stuffed leaves make a fantastic summer hors d'oeuvre or can be served with rice noodles and grilled vegetables for dinner.
Lemon Buttermilk Ice
Serve this icy granita-like dessert with warm Rhubarb Turnovers, or all on its own as a refreshingly tart, light summer dessert.
Fudge Ripple
This has the authentic taste of that old-fashioned ripple of fudge. You can swirl it through just about any ice cream you like. Try it in old-fashioned Tin Roof Ice Cream with chocolate-covered peanuts.
