About LC Editors
Over the years, Leite’s Culinaria has been incredibly fortunate to have many different editors contributing to the site, with each person bringing a different approach to home cooking and the recipes they select. As a result, our recipes are a marvelously varied bunch, comprising quick weeknight fixes we call WEEKNIGHT WINNERS that are as easy as they are enticing, more leisurely recipes that are essentially WEEKEND PROJECTS, those must-master dishes you’ll find in THE ARSENAL, and easy and impressive recipes worthy of company we refer to as HONEST ENTERTAINING. Rest assured, we first make each and every recipe that eventually ends up on this site in our own home kitchens before deciding if it’s sufficiently stunning to share with you. That’s a little about us. You’ll find more of our personalities in the recipes on the site. We’re curious to hear which recipes appeal most to you, so don’t be shy. Let us know what you like and what you’d like to see more of on our site in a comment.
Dilly Beans
Extraordinarily easy and exceptionally tasty dilly beans are within your grasp. Seriously. They’re tangy, crisp, and outrageously good.
Peach, Burrata, and Basil Salad
Peachy keen takes on new meaning with this little stunner of a starter or, if you’re like us and have a hard time restraining yourself, your entire dinner. Summer personified.
Instant Pot Blueberry Swirl Cheesecake
A pretty simple way to make cheesecake–in your Instant Pot–that turns out a creamy, thick, cheesy, and pretty hands-off dessert.
Roasted Tomato Quiche
A soulful and satiating quiche that goes perfectly with chilled wine at supper. Or with even more wine at brunch.
Tuna Salad with Yogurt, Capers, and Za’atar
A superb take on tuna salad that takes it for a Mediterranean spin. Light and tangy, it also makes a terrific tuna melt.
Devil’s Food Cake Chocolate Ice Cream
Sultry as a summer night. That’s what we thought when we experienced this seductively smooth, devilishly dark chocolate ice cream that’s almost naughtily intense.
Bacon Braised Red Potatoes
America’s Test Kitchen comes through with a different, yet utterly brilliant, way to cook potatoes. They’re tender, crisp, and full of bacon.
Seared Rib Eye Steak with Cinnamon
A grilled rib eye steak is one of life’s greatest pleasures. Succulent, gently spiced, and basted in butter, this steak is gonna blow your mind.
Grilled Radicchio Salad with Gorgonzola and Balsamic Vinaigrette
No wallflower, this outstanding salad teams sweet grilled radicchio with boldly pungent Gorgonzola and a familiar tangy balsamic vinaigrette.
