Tea-Totaler’s Toddy

No booze required for this soothing green tea toddy. But if you do want an extra dose of warmth, we like this with smoky mezcal.

Spicy Citrus Refresher

This big batch of jalapeño-spiced orange-lime juice keeps in the fridge for a couple of days. Pour it over ice and top it with seltzer for a refreshing alcohol-free pick-me-up.

Shirley Tonic

A holiday-spiced grenadine syrup, club soda, and a twist is a grown-up Shirley Temple we can all enjoy. For the adults who want to imbibe, a splash of Scotch fits just right.

Egg Korma With Frizzled Onions

Whole jammy eggs are seared in ghee until blistered and crispy, then smothered in a gently spiced coconut sauce. 

Salty-Sweet Party Mix

Whether you prefer the buttery richness of classic party mix, or you’re on the sugarcoated puppy chow team, this recipe has you covered. 

Dashi Oats With Crunchy Veg

Instant dashi powder gives so much savory umami flavor to the oats that this porridge can easily be served for dinner. 

Brothy Clams With Soba

Every batch of clams will bring a different level of saltiness to this update on linguine with clams, so be sure to taste the broth and add water as needed in case it's too salty.

Fideos With Chicken and Kale

With a crispy, toasted top hiding saucy, tomato-y noodles, this one-skillet broken spaghetti dish is anything but one-note.

Squash With Yogurt Sauce and Frizzled Onions

For this vegetarian main, crispy-sweet red onions roast alongside the squash for a finishing dose of flavor and texture.

Chicken Biryani

This satisfying rice dish can often be an elaborate, ambitious affair, but our version simplifies the process without sacrificing any complexity of flavor.

Roadie Hoagie

The flavors in this sandwich get more delicious and concentrated as it sits, so assemble it in the morning and take it with you for the perfect lunch in the afternoon.
