In Nahuatl, pozole means “make a big batch of this on the weekend and reheat during the week after soccer practice.” (Not really.)
Lila Ferrari, Recipe Tester
A list of all the recipes Lila Ferrari has tested.
White Pizza
We find this lovely, albeit subtly flavored, little number to be one of the simpler pleasures in life. We think you’ll concur.
Sidecar Cocktail
Created during Prohibition, this collision of Cognac, orange liqueur, and lemon isn’t for the faint of heart—nor for the slight of tolerance.
Spiced Maple Pecan Pie with Star Anise
Here’s a nifty little trick. Reduce maple syrup until sticky, infuse it with spice, and rely on it to impart its ridiculously intense essence to pecan pie.
Cinnamon Toast Bars
Just like cinnamon toast. Except better. Your kids will worship you. So will your inner kid.
Cheddar Biscuits
“Lovely.” “Perfectly light, fluffy, and irresistibly good.” “Easy peasy!” “Wow. Just wow.” That’s what folks are saying about these biscuits.
Potato Chip Toffee Chocolate Chip Cookies
Here’s what to bake when you don’t know exactly what you’re craving but you know it needs to be indulgent. And indecently good.
Burger Buns
Beautiful burger buns. Were ever three words joined in such harmony? There are a lot more lovely things to be said about these pillowy specimens of bread awesomeness.
Brownies for a Crowd
“So satisfying.” “Cakey and chocolatey.” “Everything a brownie should be.” That’s what folks are saying about this crowd-pleaser of a chocolate fix.
Semolina-Olive Oil Cake
A rustic Italian-inspired cake made with the ever-so-slight coarseness of semolina in contrast to the tender sweetness of grapes.
Grapefruit and Vanilla Bean Panna Cotta
A silken panna cotta that’s bittersweet in the best possible way. Sorta like an adults-only take on a creamsicle.
Barbecue Pimento Cheese
Not all pimento cheese recipes are created equal. This one, with a touch of barbecue, definitely has an unfair advantage.
Classic Dinner Rolls
Practically instant gratification with its blink-and-you’ll-miss-it rise and its straightforward mixing method. And oooooh the taste!
Roasted Asparagus with Bay Leaves and Crispy Capers
For this radically simple recipe, stalks of spring asparagus, bay leaves, and capers are tossed in olive oil and blasted in the oven. Gotta love it.
Dutch Baby
Everyone who’s made this easy and show-stopping pancake is lauding it as the airiest, most perfect puffed pancake they’ve encountered. Sorta makes you want to experience it, yeah?
Cavatelli with Turkey Sausage, Tomato, and Broccoli Rabe
A riff on the classic sausage and broccoli rabe pairing, this mixes it up with a little more healthfulness and the intriguing shape of cavatelli (though to be honest, any pasta will do).
Banana Bread Granola
“Not too sweet.” “Simple and terrific.” “Everything a granola should be.” That’s what folks are saying about this granola.
Blood Orange and Prosecco Cocktail
You’ll understand why we swooned over this effervescent and elegant elixir the second you take a sip.
One-Bowl Mocha Brownies
If you’re going to splurge on brownies, you may as well, you know, SPLURGE on brownies. But not in terms of effort or expense. Just taste. These brownies handle it splendidly.
Hungarian Cauliflower Soup ~ Karfiolleves
“Gorgeous!” “Satisfying and deceptively easy.” “A keeper.” That’s what folks are saying about this traditional Hungarian cauliflower soup.
