Watercress Salad with Cotija Cheese and Fried Tortillas

If you can't get cotija cheese, you can substitute feta — it's stronger in flavor and a bit saltier than cotija, but it works fine. Archibald also makes a version of this salad topped with shavings of Manchego cheese.

Apple Cheddar Melts with Watercress

These sandwiches make a savory lunch or, served with a bowl of soup, a perfect Sunday supper. We prefer Madras curry powder for this recipe because its subtle, sweet flavor complements the apple and cheese particularly well.

Portobello Mushroom Salad à la Grecque

The technique for cooking vegetables in water, oil, and vinegar is called à la Grecque, or Greek style. Fennel, celery, pearl onions, and feta cheese round out the salad. Serve a full-boded Chardonnay with it

Haitian Bouyon

Somewhere between a soup and stew, this spicy chicken bouyon is a family favorite.

Spring Greens With Hot Bacon Vinaigrette

Salt. Fat. Acid. Bacon. Hot fat from bacon drippings douses vinegar-drenched spring greens for a tasty salad to end all salads.

Citrus-Glazed Pork Chops With Watercress

Quick-cooking pork chops get a leg up thanks to a speedy, sweet-and-salty pan sauce that feels a lot more dressed-up than it is.

Spring-y Panzanella With Kombucha Vinaigrette

There’s greens, peas, cheese, green garlic, torn bread, and—surprise!—a sour-sweet kombucha-spiked dressing that brings it all together.

Crunchy Greens With Fat Choy Ranch

Bright and tangy vegan ranch slathered over vibrant herbs and peppery watercress make this salad a summertime standout

Crispy Rice Bowl With Spring Vegetables

This recipe was directly inspired by the wonderland of flavors and textures that is Korean bibimbap, a bowl or pot of rice topped with an assortment of vegetables, an egg, and (sometimes) meat that's mixed up right before it's eaten.

Watercress Salad with Radishes, Apples, and Lemon

We highly recommend using more than one type of radish for this salad—it really makes a difference in both texture and presentation.

Potato Salad with Mustard Sauce and Watercress

Peewee Dutch Yellow Potatoes are the perfect tiny potato for this recipe, but if you can’t find them, just use the smallest fingerling or Yukon Gold potatoes you can buy.
