My list will be short on the savory and long on the sweet, because Mom isn’t too adventurous when it comes to dinner. Nevertheless:
Discovering this wonderful dish solved two problems for me: one, I have missed cold (Japanese) soba terribly since I relocated out of NYC, and two, I grow an heirloom black cherry tomato that is incredibly delicious and extremely prolific.
- Kenji’s “No Holds Barred Lasagne Bolognese”
I was able to source local ricotta so I never made it myself, but otherwise followed the recipe exactly. A time-consuming but delicious treat.
The heat is easily adaptable here; I made a fairly mild version and passed the chili crisp at the table. A big hit.
This hardly merits being called a recipe, I guess, but I enjoyed learning and making this dish repeatedly this year for lunch.
- Peach frozen yogurt
@MunchkinRedux 's adaptation of a David Lebovitz recipe, which allowed me to finally realize a long-delayed dream of making delicious peach frozen dessert (it’s called frozen yogurt but it eats like ice cream.)
Not really soup, more like a chilled lassi, but delicious.
