The forest has always been a place of mystery. In fairy tales, it’s where children get lost, where witches build houses made of cake, and where transformations occur in the shadow of trees. But it’s also a place of deep, loamy quiet – a world that hums with hidden life. This cake draws on that …
This, then, was the situation: it was Friday night after a long week, and having met a friend on the way home for a glass of wine, which arrived with crisps, taralli, dry roasted peanuts and enough salt that we needed another glass, it seemed a good idea to go home and cook polenta – …
I’m normally a pasta purist, but I’m making some exceptions for this one-pot lasagna. Let’s be honest—nothing sounds better after a long day than the classic, cheesy, saucy comfort food, but it’s also the last thing I want to take the time to prepare. Enter: this lazy lasagna. With some store-bought hacks, you can achieve …
For some, fall means pumpkin-flavored everything. For me, it means a big pan of beans swimming in creamy sauce with lots of toasty bread on the side. There are so many ways to make this happen, and I would know—I’ve developed over 20 bean recipes for Delish alone! This one brings together seasonal flavors into …
In my opinion, a breakfast cake is the perfect way to start your day. I turn to our lemon-blueberry breakfast cake constantly in the spring and summer, which inspired me to make this pumpkin chocolate chip variation for the fall. It’s basically a pumpkin spice muffin in cake form, but I like to think of …
French silk pie is one of my favorite holiday desserts of all time, but I’ll be the first to admit that it takes a bit of time and care that isn’t always convenient. Inspired by the showstopping pie, but with the ease and convenience of cookies, this recipe offers a unique twist on a holiday …
Our stuffed mushrooms (and crab-stuffed mushrooms) are one of our most popular holiday appetizers, so it’s only natural that I try to re-create them in as many different ways as possible. While I love getting creative with the fillings, I decided it was time to take the texture to a new level. Instead of the …
Honestly, I’m generally a little skeptical when it comes to pumpkin dinners, but then I made this creamy pumpkin tortellini soup and everything changed. The heavy cream cuts the robust, earthy pumpkin, so it’s not such a full-on, in-your-face flavor, making it one of the most comforting soups for a chilly fall day. Load up …
Parmesan rinds are the ultimate zero-waste hack – like a cheesy stock cube, they enrich stews, sauces and all sorts, and add pure deliciousness in the form of umami depth and creamy texture. Stored in the fridge or freezer, they keep almost indefinitely. This week’s recipe uses them in a thrifty, creamy corn orzo that …
Traditional game day fare is all fine and good (great, even!) for a casual hang, but when it comes to holiday dinners and parties, a little fancier fare is in order. This doesn’t mean you have to give up the flavors you love, though! Instead, just tuck them into a more elevated package, like we …
