Our very own David Leite shares the recipes behind the drama-drenched Thanksgiving stuffings he grew up with at his family's Portuguese table.

Not entirely unlike the marshmallow-topped sweet potato casserole of your childhood, this "souffle" is ever so slightly more sophisticated with its pecan streusel.

Just like mom made. That's what we're hearing from folks who grew up hoovering this classic, quick, easy, cheap Italian staple any and all times of day.

Crisp, burnished skin and moist, impossibly tender meat can be yours. (Yes, deep-fried turkey IS everything it's bragged up to be.)

Here’s a soothing dinner fix with a ridiculously high taste-to-effort ratio. And you'd never guess it's healthy. Consider it the soup equivalent of Taco Tuesday. 

Behold, your latest favorite turkey, whether on your Thanksgiving table or your Super Bowl bash or your next backyard barbecue.

Simple enough for a weeknight. Sophisticated enough for weekend entertaining. And it's definitely as good as you remember, too.

This incredibly indulgent yet not too sweet dessert is crazy rich despite being made with just pantry staples and very little work. Don't skip the game-changing dollop of bourbon-spiked whipped cream.

Barely a recipe, this weeknight salvation of sausage and broccoli rabe is more like a simple blueprint for eating in season. Amen to that.

This Southern classic is an oh so sweet and charming stack of pineapple, coconut, bananas, and pecans slathered with cream cheese frosting.

A fast, easy, and unbelievably enticing way to get your greens. (And a perfect way to use up that container of miso in the back of your fridge.)

As much of a one-pan wonder as they come. Willpower doesn’t stand a chance against this cheesy baked spaghetti casserole.

An oh-so-satisfying bowl of tender braised sweetly salty pork, soba noodles, and vegetables. Eminently slurpable.

Turn that alien-looking vegetable turns into something that’s surprising as well as satisfying.

Mushrooms in garlic and sherry sauce make a versatile and satisfying appetizer. Serve with crusty bread.

Eggplant, celery, fennel, zucchini, onion, tomatoes, olives, raisins, and pine nuts, oh my! Sicilian heaven in the form of a pleasingly tart side dish of sorts.

A jumble of tastes and textures and temperatures, this towering noodle number will jolt you to your senses in a manner that only classic Vietnamese cuisine can do.

Every once in a while, along comes a loaf of bread that's so rustic, so memorable, it ruins every other bread experience. Here's that loaf.

An intoxicatingly aromatic Portuguese classic that's a tomato-based combo of stew and soup and chowder made of fish, potatoes, and chorizo.
