A Scandinavian-style pickle that’s distinctly sweet, a little sour, and perfumed with dill. It doesn’t even require turning on the stove during the dog days of summer.

A list of all the recipes Gene C. has tested.
Tuscan Bean Soup
A classic Italian vegetable soup that just happens to be loaded with so-called super foods such as kale. Seems Nonna’s known what’s best all along.
Homemade Harissa
In the words of one of our recipe testers, “If this sauce is what Moroccan food is all about, then I’m all in.” Us, too.
Veal Piccata
“Everyone loved it, including the kiddos.” “Quick and easy.” “Perfect.” “As good as any restaurant piccata I’ve ever had.” That’s what folks are saying about this recipe.
Pepper and Egg Sandwich
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.
Sweet and Spicy Bacon
When this sweet and spicy bacon is missing from your life, happiness is missing from your life. And if fulfillment can be found in brown sugar and spice, don’t you owe it to yourself?
Braised Beef with Red Wine Pasta
With all due respect, your go-to recipe for beef stew falls short of this magnificent melding of beef, wine, and pasta. No contest.
Pan Seared Scallops
Perhaps the easiest and most elegant dinner conceivable. Here’s how to cook your pricey (and worth every penny) sea scallops to perfection.
Chocolate Fudge
A no-fail chocolate fudge that’s easy to make and foolproof as can be. Although that’s not the only reason why we make batch after batch after batch and they each disappear.
Easy Pot Roast, Potatoes, and Vegetables
This classic, hearty, homey dish—just like something your grandma used to make but better—is an ideal one-pot meat-and-potatoes meal. Includes oven as well as slow cooker instructions.
