Recipe of the week
Tested-by-us recipes from eight home kitchens — Mediterranean warmth, Moroccan soul, pastry precision and fresh daily drinks. Cook with confidence.
Featured this week
A complete meal on a single sheet pan — juicy chicken thighs roasted with colorful vegetables in a garlic-herb marinade. Minimal cleanup, maximum flavor.
From the kitchen
Churros con chocolate — crisp ridged fried dough sticks with a crackly cinnamon-sugar crust, dunked into thick, molten Spanish drinking chocolate. The Madrid breakfast classic, done properly at home.
Mushroom risotto — creamy Arborio rice stirred stock ladle by stock ladle, with porcini-soaked depth, golden sautéed cremini, Parmesan, and a final glossy mantecatura of butter. The classic Italian technique, no cream needed.
Tacos al pastor — thin slices of pork marinated in a smoky achiote-chile adobo with pineapple, roasted under a blazing broiler until the edges char, then shaved into warm tortillas with onion, cilantro, and charred pineapple. The Mexico City street classic, no trompo required.
Chicken tikka masala done properly — charred yogurt-marinated chicken chunks folded into a silky spiced tomato-cream sauce, one pot, under an hour, better than the takeaway.
A proper Greek moussaka — spiced lamb ragout under fried eggplant and a tall, blistered béchamel crown. Baked until deeply golden, sliceable in neat layers, with a no-watery-layers method.
Silky, cloud-light hummus — the real deli-counter kind: overcooked chickpeas whipped with raw garlic, lemon, and good tahini into a swirl that holds a spoon upright. The classic Middle Eastern mezze, done properly at home.
Coq au vin — the French classic: chicken braised low in red wine with bacon lardons, pearl onions, and mushrooms until the sauce turns silk-deep and glossy. Burgundy comfort, done properly at home.
Carnitas — Mexican slow-roasted pork shoulder braised with orange, garlic, and cumin until it shreds, then crisped in its own fat until the edges turn golden and shattery. The Michoacán classic, done properly at home.
The real home-style chicken teriyaki: thighs seared crisp, then lacquered in a four-ingredient soy-mirin glaze that reduces to a glossy, salty-sweet shell. Twenty-five minutes, one pan, no takeout needed.
