Roosevelt Avenue-Style Cemita Sandwiches Recipe
Roosevelt Avenue-Style Cemita Sandwiches Recipe
Cemitas are a type of Mexcian sandwich that originally hails from the State of Puebla, but they've taken on a life of their own in New York City. This recipe creates a cemita sandwich as served in the restaurants and taco trucks of New York, in particular along Roosevelt Avenue in Jackson Heights. These are gently warmed sandwiches served on a griddled sesame bun with taco-meat fillings of your choice, avocado, lettuce, tomato, chipotles, refried beans, mayo, and queso Oaxaca, a Mexican string cheese, that's hand-shredded into hairlike strands. Papalo, a floral Mexican herb, adds its own sp...

Savory Green Curry French Toast Means Brunch Will Never Be the Same
This savory French toast is inspired by my mother’s simple version made with Thai green chili and onion. It's soaked in a creamy coconut green curry for that custardy center we all recognize, but with the pungent and spicy flavors I grew up on.

Risotto al Salto (Crispy Rice Pancake) Recipe
Leftover risotto? Take a page from the Milanese kitchen by frying it in ample butter to form a beautiful golden pancake with a crispy, crunchy crust. The dish, known as risotto al salto is usually made from the saffron-scented risotto alla milanese, or sometimes from a basic risotto al parmigiano (risotto flavored simply with butter and Parmigiano-Reggiano).

How to Make Foolproof Béarnaise Sauce | The Food Lab
For my money, the very best classic steak sauce you can make at home, a sauce that will wow your guests with its flavor and elegance, and—most importantly—a sauce that can be made start to finish in under half an hour, is béarnaise. The catch (there's always a catch) is that made with the classic technique, it's very easy to mess up. Here is a foolproof technique that uses hot butter and a hand blender for perfect results every time.

This pesto sauce, through rounds and rounds of testing, has been honed to the perfect ratio, ingredients, and method. And, while a mortar and pestle requires a bit of work, the superior sauce it produces compared to a food processor can't be argued with. This is the true, best pesto, but if you're using a food processor, this ratio of ingredients will still produce a great sauce.

Spice Hunting: What's The Deal With Saffron?
Spice Hunting: What's The Deal With Saffron?
At a price of $2,000 to $10,000 a pound, saffron is far and away the most expensive food on earth, way more than truffles, caviar, and real balsamic vinegar. Its longstanding coveted status has borne a tradition of adulteration, embargo, and conspicuous consumption that can only be characterized as grotesque. So what's the deal with this stuff? Is it worth all the fuss? And what, at the end of the day, can you really do with it?

Avgolemono Soup (Greek Lemon-Egg Chicken Soup) Recipe
Avgolemono Soup (Greek Lemon-Egg Chicken Soup) Recipe
Avgolemono ("egg-lemon") is a Greek mixture of eggs and lemon, used to thicken soups and sauces while adding a punch of bright citrus flavor. In the United States, the word is practically synonymous with this tangy and creamy chicken soup in which the avgolemono is used. This recipe is easy as can be—the biggest change we made is adding the eggs and lemon juice separately, since there's no technical benefit to adding them together and you have more control over your final flavor and texture if you keep them separate.
