Easter is a time for resurrection—and I ain’t just talking about the holiday. I mean bringing your table back to life with the vibrant flavors of spring. Whether you’re honoring tradition with an Italian-inflected leg of lamb or living the Sunday brunch life with Julia Child’s eggs Benedict, you’ve hit the motherlode.
Having hosted decades of holiday feasts, I know the pressure of getting it right. That’s why I’ve gathered my most trusted, foolproof recipes. From a show-stopping mustard-glazed ham to the pastéis de bacalhau (salt cod fritters) I couldn’t stop shoving in my mouth when I was a kid, these dishes are made to impress without stress.
I’ve got everything you need, including how to make perfect hard-boiled eggs that actually peel, a ham-buying guide, FAQs, cooking charts, and even a list of recipes for all that leftover ham you’re making. So go ahead—browse, cook, entertain, and take all the kudos. Dammit, you deserve it!
