This crispy sesame rice bowl combines deeply golden, intentionally scorched rice with bright spring vegetables – asparagus, sugar snap peas – tossed in a soy-wasabi-plum dressing. Topped with a baked jammy egg and fresh radish, it’s a balanced, light dinner that comes together in one skillet while eggs roast alongside.
This crispy cod recipe features a thin cornstarch-coated fillet seared to a delicate crust, served in a clean, layered leek broth built with chicken stock, fish sauce, and fresh lemon. Finished with melting lemon-thyme butter, it’s a light but warming bowl ideal for early spring weeknight dinners.
Ina takes her classic pesto recipe and turns up the volume by incorporating chopped spinach, extra Parmesan cheese (because more is always better), lemon juice to maintain the vibrant colors, and mayonnaise for added creaminess. This flavorful mixture is then tossed with bow-tie and fusilli pasta, peas, and toasted pine nuts.
At the beginning of the year, I took inventory of my cupboards in an effort to finally use up the odds and ends of ingredients that had been lingering there for too long!
