Chopped Spring Salad
This dressing is also great as a dip, and most of the vegetables listed here can be left in bigger pieces and treated as crudités instead.

Green Garlic Labneh
Available in the spring, green garlic is somewhat less intense than grown-up garlic, but still very pungent and extra-juicy. The dairy fat and tang of the labneh provide cooling balance.

Buttermilk Ranch Dressing

Sea Scallops With Celery Root and Meyer Lemon Salad
Pick a small to medium celery root and peel off its hide with a sharp knife. Inside you'll find ivory-green flesh that's crisp, a bit nutty, and utterly delicious in salads. This take on a classic remoulade provides perfect contrast to the silken luxury of seared scallops.

Herbed Baked Brie
Big group? Go for the show-stopping giant baked brie recipe. Smaller party (or can’t find the large size)? Smaller wheels are perfect, and the cook time is the same.

Classic French Dressing
Tomato paste adds sweetness and will help the dressing emulsify.

Escarole with Crispy Ham and Eggs
Like all good leafy greens, the giant pile of escarole leaves will wilt down dramatically as they cook.

Endive and Fennel Gratin
The liquid will not submerge the endive at first, and that’s okay. Take the gratin out of the oven after 10 minutes and press down with a spatula to submerge the endive in cream.

Oysters Casino
This recipe, part of our Throwback Thanksgiving feature, is from our 1970 issue. Instead of green pepper, add some heat by making this with jalapeño.

Slow-Roasted Char with Fennel Salad
Slow-roasting fish is to cooking seafood what bumper lanes are to bowling: the definition of foolproof—and still pretty fun.

Gravy-Braised Turkey Legs With Cipolline Onions
You know how sometimes the turkey is dry and there’s not enough gravy? We fixed that by braising dark meat in a robust pan sauce. Ta-da!

Porchetta-Style Roast Turkey Breast
Deboning a turkey breast isn’t difficult (just like cutting the rib bones away from a chicken breast, but bigger), but most butchers will do this for you. Ask for a whole breast, skin on, bones removed when you order it at the meat counter. Click here for step-by-step photos and instructions on butterflying the breast.

Seared Mushrooms With Garlic and Thyme
Our idea of magic mushrooms is crisp, golden (legal) substances with the power to lend a bass note of flavor to grain salads, turn a piece of ricotta toast into a meal, or stand alone as a savory side.
