The perfect solution when you need a last-moment sweet something or crave a little something sweet but don’t want an entire pan sitting around to tempt you.

A little sweeter (and a lot more vibrant) than traditional English marmalade thanks to the notable presence and complexity of the classic Italian apéritif. Here's how to make it.

So easy to toss together. So understated yet sophisticated. So wise in capturing and preserving something during its season.

Call them fried pork dumplings, Chinese dumplings, or even potstickers. Whatever you do, don't call them difficult to make. So much easier to make than you'd ever imagine.

Sorta like shakshuka, aquacotta is an Italian soup from southern Tuscany that's essentially leftover bread, tomatoes, onions, and chiles with eggs and a little Parmesan. Living large.

Dumplings that were named for a pasta-loving priest who got a little gluttonous and strangled himself by swallowing them whole. Gotta be good, eh?

You'd never, ever guess how quick and easy it is to make this authentic Indian condiment at home. And let's not forget how delicious it is. So much so that folks are calling it "outstanding" and "magic." Enough said.

Chorizo eggs Benedict. It's essentially eggs and Hollandaise and chorizo and it tastes like a superlative Spanish homage to a breakfast classic.

Chipotle mayonnaise. We dare you to make it and not find it to be awesome on almost anything—fish tacos, burgers,…

A simple dipping sauce, sandwich spread, and all around awesome something to slather, dunk, or otherwise devour with anything and everything.
