Sometimes I dream up recipes to fulfill a defined, single purpose. A roast recipe for a celebration, the perfect snack for a movie night, or a warming sip for an aprés ski. But sometimes a recipe wanders into my head and I don’t have a clue what to do with it. And that is the case with today’s Cinnamon Miso Delicata Galette. This flaky beauty features tender slices of delicata squash packed into a golden whole wheat pastry slathered with cinnamon miso butter. The pie is finished with a sprinkling of rosemary, coarsely chopped pecans, and pomegranate arils. It is equal parts sweet and savory, and I think it would be right at home at the beginning or the end of the meal. Sure, this tart may have a bit of an identity crisis going on but at least it’s a delicious one. So let’s dive right in!

I can’t shake the feeling that today’s Creamy Lemon Orecchiette is more of a spring dish than a fall one. Something about lemon feels spring-ish. Maybe it’s an Eastertime lemon meringue pie association. But despite this inkling, I’m sharing this dish in the middle of October because I do what I want, I guess. It does have crispy sage – that’s very fall, right? And there is a coziness to pasta that makes it fitting fall fare regardless of flavor, right? I adore lemony dishes, plates of pasta in particular, year-round. And this one is one of the best I’ve ever made. That is not an exaggeration. This dish comes together in 30 minutes, it brings a lot of textures to the table, and it’s rich without being heavy. It is, in a word, perfection. So let’s get into it!

Cabbage is one of my favorite ingredients, which I realize might be a bit surprising. I feel like cabbage gets a bad rap. People tend to love it shaved raw in salads or towering atop pork tonkatsu but it’s far from crave-able. Most people associate cooked cabbage with limp, odorous soup or as a component of the forever polarizing boiled dinner.  But a head of cabbage is always a good thing to have on hand. It has a good shelf life, a single head can be stretched across multiple meals, it’s crisp and crunchy raw, and buttery when cooked. If you’re not so sure about that last part, allow me to show you the light via this Warm Red Cabbage Salad. This dish will dispel the smelly cooked cabbage myth and replace it will a food memory you’ll want to hold on to. So let’s get started!
