These spicy and crunchy chickpeas make a crowd-pleasing snack to serve with cocktails.

Parsley, mint, and lemon zest make this herbed oil a versatile condiment for a number of dishes.

When you leave lemon peels behind on the cutting board, you're (literally) throwing away free flavor. The peel adds a mild bitterness that we love, plus a bit of texture that instantly makes a salad dressing interesting. This whole-lemon vinaigrette can take on much more than Bibb lettuce: It's substantial enough to go head to head with blistered string or flat beans, smoky grilled meats—you name it.

Toss peaches with almonds and fragrant garam masala, then top with a brown sugar crumble for an excellent entry into summer peach season.

The musky-sweet flavor of melon also takes well to red pepper flakes and cracked black pepper.

If you can't find currants (check the farmers' market first), use any other berry or a mix.

If you've got both a camp stove and a grill, you're golden: Prep the salsa over the live fire, and make perfect eggs on the propane stove.

Double the chile oil, keep it chilled, and drizzle it over flatbreads, pastas, and all of your grilled meats and vegetables all summer long.

If this were our party, we'd get all the grilling out of the way early in the day and toss this Mediterranean fantasy of a salad together in our caftans.

It takes some practice to produce a beautifully crimped pie crust, but galettes? Not so much: The more rustic they look, the better.

The usual slaw suspects get a modern upgrade thanks to a salty-cheesy walnut pesto.

Heating the sugar before beating it into the egg whites creates an extra-glossy, stable meringue.

Nectarines, all types of plums, or apricots are easy swaps for the peaches.

Don't like it hot? Remove the seeds to tone it down, or make this addictive condiment with sweet peppers alone.

These frozen treats are also super cute made with orange rinds, and work with any flavor sorbet or sherbet you fancy.

No one will know this umami-packed creamy dressing is made with tofu; they'll just think it's delicious.

Choose a mild and creamy Gorgonzola for this dip.
