In this effortless one-skillet meal, cod fillets are simply pan-roasted — basted in butter on the stovetop — then gently finished in a moderate oven to guarantee even cooking and tender, flaky fish.

Spicy Carrot-Ginger Soup Recipe
I’ve made this soup twice now – once almost directly as written, and once with a few modifications. I prefer the slightly modified version but both turned out great. The recipe as written is light and simple, but the very faint bite from the garlic, ginger and jalapeño makes for a distantly complex flavor profile. …

Silken Tofu With Spicy Soy Dressing Recipe
A favorite. Uncut, cut into blocks, cut into cubes, cut into strips, lightly crushed, cut into stars with a small cookie cutter, scooped into balls with a melon baller. If you want it spicier, add more chili oil, but if you want it less spicy, add less chili oil, or even no chili oil at …
