Served with some crusty bread to soak up the fragrant juices, this is a meal that can solve all problems.

This dish holds a special place for me. It was one of the first dishes I made upon moving to Italy for a year, more than 10 years ago. It quickly became a staple in the tiny kitchen.
Sweet, juicy, end-of-season tomatoes are roasted with capers and vinegar, their juices are soaked up by plump butter beans and firm white fish fillets. It’s a simple, elegant, one-tray recipe.
The walnuts are there for texture, and I can’t go past the salty, savoury hit of Parmigiano Reggiano, although a feta or goat’s cheese can be equally as pleasing.
Chicken wings require no utensils and should be strictly eaten with your fingers. This is unpretentious dining at its best.
Feel free to experiment with the ingredients – just look for things with crunch.
A crudo doesn’t feel so much like a recipe, but rather a coming together of beautiful, fresh ingredients. This is what cooking in February looks like to me.
Roll this out for a party, or simply stow it away in the freezer for a slice whenever the craving strikes.
In the heat of summer, crafting the perfect pasta dish demands a trifecta: simplicity, speed, lightness.
Pasta salads have a bad name and I have a lot of prejudice against them. But this one has a lot going for it.
