Cheese Tortellini with Purple Sage and Browned Butter

Cheese Tortellini with Purple Sage and Browned Butter by K. Garner

My family loves this dish. It's a classic and uses an herb that grows year after year in my yard--purple sage. Any culinary sage will do--the ones with the large velvety leaves. Don't use Russian sage or Pineapple Sage. Stick with the basic sages. We like short pasta with this, and often use Orecchiete or Bow Tie pasta. You've got to…

Sauteed Zucchini in Homemade Tomato Sauce

Sauteed Zucchini in Homemade Tomato Sauce by Denise Sherin

I love homemade tomato sauce, it's so much better than jarred sauce. As a summer side dish I add sauteed zucchini, it's so yummy. I recently served it as a side with baked cod and we wound up putting it right over the fish it was terrific!

Mashed Favas with Warm Tomatoes and Feta

Mashed Favas with Warm Tomatoes and Feta by Mark Bittman

Fava beans come in many forms, and you can use any of them in this recipe. If you have the time to cook a batch, dried favas (the most traditional) will give you a nuttier flavor and a deep, coffee-colored dish with complex flavors. (Buy split dried favas instead of whole, or you'll have to squeeze them out of their skins after you…

Roman-Style Spinach

Roman-Style Spinach by John Spottiswood

This is a great new way I've learned to cook spinach. I wouldn't have thought of adding sweetness to spinach, but I really like the way the currants and pine nuts contrast with the slight bitterness of fresh spinach. This is a new winner that I'll be cooking frequently in the future!

Asparagus and Shitake Mushrooms

Asparagus and Shitake Mushrooms by John Spottiswood

Quickly sauteed asparagus and shitake mushrooms with fresh ginger makes a really spectacular dish. This has a light, Asian flavor that would go well with fish or poultry as well as beef (which we served it alongside). This could easily be cooked in a wok if you have one handy, though a large saute pan will work equally well. We…

Gurkhali Aloo-Potatoes, Gurka Style.

Gurkhali Aloo-Potatoes, Gurka Style. by shalini

Newlywed and nearly dead. That was what I was when I first heard of Gurkhali Aloo. I say nearly dead because of the fact that while soup and sandwiches would suffice as dinner in my parents’ house, with the in laws, dinner meant loads of work! I loved to bake and make soups (out of a packet) and sandwiches were easy. But here,…

Asparagus in Miso-Butter Sauce

Asparagus in Miso-Butter Sauce by John Spottiswood

This dish is amazing. I could eat a pound of this with rice as my dinner...and practically did tonight. I've adapted it from a recipe in the New York Times cookbook, reducing and lightening the sauce to make it both healthier and tastier...in my opinion. I served it with a fish with curry sauce that Nancy made. We'll post that…
