Got gochujang? If not, you need to make this simple cheater's version that's a quick stand-in for when you don't have time to make the authentic Korean chile paste with a sweet heat and some serious umami.

When we say this intensely hued pasta is simply stunning, we mean not just that breathtaking to behold but that that it comes together so simply it stuns us.

If you're the sort who likes things spicy, whether first thing in the morning or at the end of a crazy day, then we've got a quick and easy scrambled eggs recipe for you.

For this embarrassingly easy roast, a tingling rub of Szechuan pepper, black pepper, and nutmeg (yes, nutmeg) coats pork butt or loin before it's roasted to tender incredibleness.

Perfectly battered. Nicely seasoned. And easy as heck. That's how we like our fried chicken wings, thank you very much. This recipe delivers all that.

If you're looking for a lively dish, this is not it. Rather, it contains hints of Tuscany here and there in a subdued fashion.

Crisp white wine, Cointreau, plenty of citrus, and sparkling water collide in this sipper that you can succumb to without regretting in the morning.

Perhaps the easiest dessert ever, this simple yet stunning Portuguese staple is made with just three ingredients. Cookies. Cream. And sweetened condensed milk.

A specialty of Portugal that's a superbly comforting and oh-so-satisfying dish of marinated pork shoulder and briny clams in a white wine and red pepper sauce.

Tastes just like what they slide in front of you at trattorias in Italy, with someone's nonna in back rolling out sheets of fresh pasta, upper arms jiggling.

Who doesn't love Jewish rye bread? The not-so-secret secret behind this recipe is the brilliant inclusion of onions and caraway seeds in the starter for a far more complex taste.

A creamy, milky, not egregiously sweet, altogether lovely argument for sticking with a classic—in this case, a Spanish classic.

No more excuses about how there's a dearth of decent bagels in your neighborhood. Nope. Not when you can make these.

Chicken gets a little tipsy after being doused with tequila but is then given a cold shower in the form of a squeeze of lime and a cooling cilantro-chile mayo sauce.

Yoohoo, you who's trying to eat more healthfully, start cramming carrots in your pieholes with this satisfying little number.

Shirttail cousins to corn bread, these savory cakes wooed and wowed us with their crisped edges, ethereally airy interior, and pantry-friendly frugality.

The infatuation with all things pork belly continues. Here it's infused with herbs and left to cook low and slow until mind-bendingly tender and flavorful.

Clams, spicy sausage, onions, tomatoes, garlic, and aromatics meld in the Portuguese equivalent of a wok (or whatever pot you happen to have handy).

Yes, you can make your own pasta. And no, you don't need a pasta maker, thanks to this recipe. All you need is flour, olive oil, and salt.

An easy, no-bake, Portuguese classic made with crushed cookies, confectioners' sugar, cocoa powder, and whatever nuts or dried fruit you happen to have around. And (hiccup) Port.
