This traditional and incendiary Thai condiment has incited quite the following. Here’s how to save yourself a trip to your local Asian market.

A list of all the recipes Marilyn Canna has tested.
Bacon-Wrapped Chicken Wings
Sorta makes you wonder how you got this far in life without thinking to try this, eh?
Individual Peach Soufflés
Properly airy and messily delicious, these peach souffles are an elegant (yet easy) ending to any summer supper. Or heck, perhaps just have these for supper.
Chicken Fingers
No funnily named fillers. No mystery meat. Just chicken and cornflakes and little tykes clamoring for more.
Herb-Stuffed Baked Salmon
A stupendously simple yet superlatively stunning salmon recipe that requires no swimming upstream, we promise.
Pan-Seared Moroccan Salmon
These sexy salmon fillets have got “come hither” appeal in spades thanks to a citrusy lilt and a beguiling blend of spices.
Fried Brussels Sprouts with Walnuts and Capers
There’s one foolproof way that we can think of to get avowed Brussels sprouts loathers to eat them. Hint: Frying makes EVERYTHING better.
Bread and Butter Pickles
We’ve no idea where the saying “in a pickle” comes from, but we’d love to find ourselves in a jar of these subtly sweet specimens.
Pesto Genovese
A spoon-it-straight-from-the-jar-and-slather-it-on-everything sauce with the taste of tradition, the seduction of sophistication.
Southern Peach Cobbler
This Southern peach cobbler is going to bring back a lot of memories. We consider it Southern charm.
Braised Lamb Shanks in Pinot Noir
Lamb shanks are left to slowly burble in a lovely red wine until the meat is literally falling-off-the-bone tender. Our favorite winter pastime.
Squash Blossom Quesadillas
With one taste of these quesadillas, we sighed and said, “Okay, so THAT’S what you’re supposed to do with squash blossoms!”
Day After Thanksgiving Cranberry Chutney
We can’t help but think that all we want for Christmas is jar after jar of this sweet-tart cranberry condiment.
Butter Pecan Affogato
Straight from Venice by way of Charleston, this Southern belle cheats a little, usurping the role of vanilla gelato with butter pecan ice cream.
Individual Chicken Pot Pies
These pot pies are the ultimate comfort food. Any why not? Creamy chicken and vegetable filling lies in wait beneath a thyme-infused buttery crust.
Mackerel with Onions and White Wine
This way of cooking mackerel, an overlooked fish, makes for a tender, moist bite. The onions add a depth of flavor, the wine-butter sauce a bit of luxury.
