Sides & Vegetables

Earthy collides with slightly sweet in this beautiful burnished brioche and wild mushroom stuffing. (Did we mention it's easy?)

Honest grub with demolish-the-entire-panful-while-standing-at-the-counter allure. Grab some napkins.

Acidity. Saltiness. Sharpness. Herbaciousness. This North African salad is where all these elements collide to quite lovely effect.

Crispy, crunchy, tangy, and as spicy as you like, this slaw can work great as a zesty side dish or as a topping for tacos, burgers, sandwiches, and more.

You're not going to believe how ridiculously quick and easy it is to toss together this flashy hot pink pickle.

Easy to make. Good with beer. Perfect for parties. Sorta makes us think we're back in college. Beer pong, anyone?

Quite possibly the definitive clam chowder, made simple yet spectacular with clams, salt pork, potatoes, and oodles of cream. A bold claim, we realize, yet we stand behind it.

Soft. Supple. Ever so slightly smoky. And frugal thanks to grandma's trick of saving the fat from breakfast bacon. One taste and you'll understand our obsession.

Crisp on the outside, tender on the inside, and pretty damn indulgent with gooey Cheddar through and through.

This New England clam chowder recipe, put simply, is a classic. No other way to say it, no other way to make it.

It's remarkable what you can do with a can of beans. Here it's transformed into a pretty classy purée (aka poor man's hummus).

Shame we didn't have these little lovelies on our plates when we were being admonished by our parents to "eat your veggies!"

With its blend of mascarpone and Parmesan, this roux-less—and fuss-less—creamed spinach isn't what you grew up with at your grandma's table. And no one's complaining about that.

Yep. We smoked, pickled, and fried these spuds. And we've no regrets. David divulges—and indulges—all in this blog post.

Best potato salad ever. That's what folks are saying about this easy and, dare we say, elegant spud salad.

These pretty pink refrigerator pickles are almost instant in terms of gratification, undeniably complex in terms of satisfaction.

Quickles. It's what we dubbed these Middle Eastern pickles that can be made in a mere 20 minutes (!) with no fussy canning process. (Quick. Pickles. Quickles. Get it?!)

Looks like a cucumber pickle. Tastes sorta like a cucumber pickle. But let us assure you, this is not a cucumber pickle. It's even better.

Four ingredients. Ridiculously easy. Wonderfully inexpensive. And, quite frankly, the best gnocchi we've ever experienced.

These unconventional latkes are gonna rock your world. They're lovely at all times of day and on all occasions.
