'Cracked Wheat' Bread

When I began my career as a cook, I made hearty loaves like these every week. Now that we have so many bakeries producing good breads, I don't really need to bake as often, but I've never gotten bread...

Spring Carrot Pickles With Caraway

You don't have to limit yourself to the young multicolored carrots that I'm finding at the farmers' market right now, but they are particularly beautiful, at least until the colors fade with time. Carrots...

Whole Wheat Quinoa Bread

This moist, hearty bread slices beautifully for sandwiches or toast. The dough is sticky because of the moisture from the cooked quinoa, but resist the urge to add too much flour.

Pickled Baby Turnips

I didn't know how delicious these would be until I came back from a trip 10 days after pickling some gorgeous baby red turnips. Initially they tasted sort of blah, but after 10 days they were infused with...

Short Rib Chili Nachos

These are fairly high-brow nachos, topped with a mountain of soft, spicy, chile-braised short ribs run through with rivers of molten cheese, above hillocks of guacamole; soft mounds of salsa; creamy pools...

Whole Wheat Focaccia

Focaccia is a flatbread, not unlike a very thick-crusted pizza. It's an easy dough to put together. It's a great vehicle for all kinds of vegetables, just as pizza is. Three variations on the flour mix...

Berber Skillet Bread

The Berbers use an unusual leavening method that gives a warm, earthy aroma to the loaves: a mix of semolina flour, water and garlic cloves that quickly ferments into a pungent starter. The recipe requires...

Chard Stem Pickles

It occurred to me that pickling would be a great thing to do with wide chard stalks. They're crunchy and absorbent, and the texture stands up to weeks of pickling. Red chard or a mix of rainbow chard stalks...

Walnut Fougasse or Focaccia

What's called focaccia in Italy is fougasse in Provence. Fougasse, though, is often shaped like a leaf, which is easy to do and very pretty. The nutty, toasty whole grain bread is irresistible.

Pickled Cauliflower With Hot Pepper and Cumin

When I first prepared the cauliflower, it didn't do much for me for the first few days. Then I went away for a week, and when I came back and tasted the thinly sliced pickled cauliflower, now nicely infused...
