Swedish Meatballs With Rich Gravy
Swedish meatballs, stars of 1960s-era cocktail parties and IKEA shopping trips, are, on the surface, pretty simple: a mix of pork and beef that’s lightly spiced and served with a rich gravy. Getting them just right, though, requires some fine-tuning and tinkering. Here’s our ultimate version, as good on a plate with buttery potatoes and […]
Moroccan-Style Turkey Meatballs
Our turkey meatballs rival those made from beef or pork, thanks to a few test kitchen tricks. We start with 93 or 85 percent lean turkey; the 99 percent lean type didn’t have enough fat to create a palatable meatball. Next, we add an egg and fresh bread crumbs (instead of a panade, which made […]
Chili Enchiladas
Inspired by Sam Sifton’s popular Enchiladas Con Carne in the New York Times, these family-style enchiladas are seriously delicious. You begin by making a quick chili con carne, or chili sauce, with lean ground beef, onions, peppers, spices, tomato sauce, and broth. The sauce is then combined with shredded Mexican cheese and rolled into soft […]
Sirloin Steak Tips with Charro Beans
A hearty supper of steak and spiced beans in under 30 minutes? We made it happen. Quick-pickled red onion and jalapeno add brightness and spice to this Tex-Mex inspired, one-skillet meal.
Bolognese-Style Pork Cutlets
Classic cotoletta alla bolognese are pan-fried breaded veal cutlets topped with salty, savory prosciutto and Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese. After frying, the crisp cutlets usually are placed in a simple pan sauce and cooked just long enough to melt the cheese. For our version, instead of veal we use pork tenderloin, which is similarly mild in […]
Linguine alle Vongole / Linguine with Clams
Linguine alle vongole is inspired by the Mediterranean lifestyle and it is my absolute favorite pasta dish in the world. The salty vongole and smooth long strands of pasta mixed with freshly chopped parsley and crushed garlic are the ultimate match.The traditional Italian vongole has very few ingredients so we are keeping it simple […]

Cioppino
Cioppino is a hearty seafood and tomato stew first invented in San Francisco by Italian fishermen. Today, Cioppino is made in many different ways across the country. In many recipes, the seafood is all just added to the pot to simmer with the stew, but in the recipe, the seafood is individually seared so […]
Zach’s Classic Pork Fried Rice
This fried rice recipe brings together several time-honored ingredients to exemplify my idea of this ultimate takeout classic.
Roast Pork Tenderloin with Apricots and Fennel
Roast pork tenderloin is the perfect ‘quick cook’ piece of meat, beautifully tender when cooked pink and served here with gin braised fennel and seared apricots.
Bucatini with Butter-Roasted Tomato Sauce
We love the way that roasting intensifies the flavor of canned tomatoes. While we’re pretty obsessed with the texture of bucatini, a strand pasta with a hole running through it, this dish is every bit as delicious with spaghetti, linguine, or even rigatoni.
Fish Curry
This fragrant tomato-and-coconut curry with pieces of flaky white fish is a staple at chef Meherwan Irani’s dinner table. At home, he likes to make double or triple batches of the coconut milk curry (see his recipe for All-Purpose Coconut Curry here) and freeze it in two-cup portions. Then, when he’s ready for dinner, all […]
Peruvian Seafood Chowder
This nourishing bowl of seafood simmered in a base of pureed corn, evaporated milk, squash, and potatoes pulls inspiration from the beloved Peruvian chupe. Right before turning off the heat, gently stir in egg yolks for a satisfying soup with big flavor.
BA’s Best Peanut Butter Cookies
What makes this peanut butter cookie recipe The Best? Well, there are a few reasons actually. We call for natural peanut butter so that you can dial the sugar and salt amounts exactly. Instead of just adding roasted peanuts from the can, we roast them a second time for even more peanutty flavor. And the […]
