Fall
Chaider
This chaider recipe is our warm, spiced-up, wintery alternative to bulletproof coffee. It’s a sweet mash-up of masala chai flavors and mulled cider, with an unexpected buttery finish to smooth it all out.
Cider-Braised Pork Shoulder With Butternut Squash
Bone-in pork shoulder is one of the least expensive, party-friendly animal proteins you can buy. This recipe will feed 10—with leftovers!
Gluten-Free Coconut Turmeric Pie
This recipe is inspired by the flavors found in the traditional Ayurvedic Indian drink haldi doodh, made with milk, turmeric, and honey. It's also gluten- and dairy-free.
Make-Ahead Broccoli and Quinoa Salad
The ideal bring-to-your-friend's-dinner-party salad.
Cheesy Brussels Sprouts Gratin
You can't go wrong with cheese, cream, and pancetta.
Sausage, Squash, and Cornbread Gratin
Sausage, squash, greens, and cornbread bread crumbs. Need we say more?
Butternut Squash Shakshuka
If you don’t have an ovenproof skillet for this shakshuka recipe, just cook everything in a medium skillet and transfer to a 2-quart baking dish before cracking the eggs.
Boozy Stovetop Pears with Yogurt
Amaretto is great if you have it, but, if not, substitute with any other brown liquor and it should work out just fine.
Leeks in Vinaigrette With Walnuts and Tarragon
Cutting the leeks into rounds is an update on the classic presentation—and makes them easier to serve to a crowd.
Easiest Caramel Apple Clafoutis
This easy, one-skillet apple dessert goes out to all the baking-phobes out there, because making something sweet shouldn't require all the bowls and measuring cups in your kitchen plus an advanced degree in chemistry. Pink Ladies and Granny Smiths are our go-to baking apples, but you can choose any kind you like as long as it has a firm texture and a good bit of acidity.
Cast-Iron Roast Chicken With Crispy Potatoes
Size matters. This isn't the time for a mammoth Oven Stuffer, nor do we want some petite poussin—a 3½–4-lb. bird has the proportions we're after. When the breasts are roasted to perfection, all that dark meat is on-the-nose-done too.
Classic Applesauce
Cooking the apples with their skins on adds a beautiful rosy blush to the finished sauce.
Radicchio with Tahini and Sesame Seeds
This tahini dressing recipe goes especially well with bitter greens but can also be paired with sweeter lettuces such as Little Gem or romaine.
Fig Caprese Salad
It's not about the number of steps or ingredients in a dish. If you shop smart, buying peak-season produce and quality protein, you don't have to do much at all (like with this easy salad recipe).
Ramen With Steak and Sesame-Ginger Dressing
This cold noodle salad can be customized however you want, but it's all about that sesame dressing.
Shepherd's Pie
We would eat pretty much anything topped with mashed potatoes.
Open-Faced Roasted Squash Sandwich
If you're not feeling sandwich-y, try with toasted or fried tortillas.
Tofu and Kimchi Stew
If gochujang hasn’t made it to your pantry yet, you can use any miso.
Quince Jam With Cardamom and Pistachios
There’s no substitute for quince, which is closely related to apples and pears. If you can’t find it fresh, look for a high-quality quince jam from a Middle Eastern market.
