A list of all the recipes Debra K. has tested.
Blueberry Prosecco Spritz
Want to know what we’re sipping all summer long? It’s this easy cocktail of fresh blueberries, lemon juice, simple syrup, sparkling wine, and soda.
Momofuku’s Fried Chicken
This flour-free fried bird is contrary to everything we know about fried chicken. Or think we know. That’s exactly what makes it so darn genius.
Fish in Parchment
Drama. Intrigue. Aroma. Ease. These, too, can be part of your weeknight routine with this simple, surprising tactic to cooking fish.
Fennel Baked in Cream
Fennel turns meltingly tender and oh so sweet when slowly, slowly, slowly braised in cream, cheese, and butter. One more reason to be enamored with the holidays.
Tomatoes Provençal
Is there anything as sweetly satisfying as heirloom tomatoes eaten raw over the sink? Probably not. But when you tire of that, there’s always this deeply satiating tactic.
Buttery Pull-Apart Rolls
These exceptionally airy pull-apart rolls bake up crisp on the outside, tender on the inside, and, yes, light as a feather through and through.
Harvest Kale Salad
And you thought eating healthfully and seasonally was a chore and a bore. This little vegan number proves you wrong. So very wrong.
White Peach Crostata
Not familiar with the term “crostata”? We have a hunch you’re going to like what it means, which is essentially “less fussy than pie.”
Blueberry Yogurt Pie with Granola Crust
We’ve clamored for dessert for breakfast many a time, but breakfast for dessert? With this inspired makeover, you betcha.
Corn with Curried Yogurt Sauce
Butter is nice, but we have a hunch you may find this tangy, spicy, cooling drizzle of yogurt, honey, and curry to be just as swell.
