We used to get our gratins and scalloped potatoes confused. But then we tried this gratin. Guess which one is now our favorite?!

A list of all the recipes Jyoti D. has tested.
Whole Roasted Onions
Plonk unpeeled onions on a baking sheet. Shove in oven. Come back later for achingly sweet, tender, mellow oniony goodness. Accept accolades. See how easy that was?
Roasted Carrots with Allspice
Sweet. Spicy. Earthy. And a touch puckery. When did anything–or anyone–at your table boast such character? Certain to compensate for your duller dinner invitees.
Crisp Peanut Butter Cookies
These uncannily crisp, seemingly shortbreadish cookies from San Francisco’s Miette are–and we mean this–unlike any you’ve ever encountered.
Grilled Vegetable and Goat Cheese Sandwiches
The quintessential summer sandwich, this stack is stuffed with grilled eggplant, bell peppers, red onions, and zucchini. Open wide.
Cinnamon Rolls
Time to change into your baggiest sweatpants—the ones with the no-longer-elastic waistband. (We can’t be the only ones who keep those around, can we?!)
Breakfast Quinoa
A quietly, healthily, nuttily pleasing alternative to your same old oats. Go on. You know you want to try it. So get your quinoa on.
Buttermilk Sandwich Bread
A fast-rising home-baked white sandwich loaf that tastes–dare we say it?–better than mom’s. Way better. And just wait ’til you toast it.
Apple Chips
Why pay an absurd amount of money for a teensy bag containing a couple shriveled slices when you can instead DIY a slew of slightly sweet and eminently easy snacks?
Ratatouille Pickles
Traditional ratatouille gets sliced, diced, deconstructed, and reimagined–pickled, too–in this fashionably brilliant approach to Indian summer surplus.
Baked Mushrooms, Broken Bread
An effortless, elegant side that takes inspiration from two enduring entertaining icons: the stuffed mushroom and Thanksgiving stuffing.
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.”
Yogurt Ice Pops with Berries ~ Paletas de Yogurt con Moras
Although these paletas are Mexican through and through, the melding of yogurt, fruit, and honey is luscious in any language.
