Falafel
Vegan
Soaked, dried chickpeas, blended with a flurry of herbs and spices, are key to the best homemade falafel.
Negroni
Easy
Adjust the classic proportions of the gin, vermouth, and Campari in a negroni cocktail recipe for this updated version from London’s Chiltern Firehouse.
Biscuits and Sausage Gravy
Sour cream takes the place of buttermilk in these easy flaky biscuits with sausage gravy.
Daiquiri, Up-Rocks
This daiquiri recipe is served up-rocks in an elegant coupe and has nothing to do with the slushy, syrupy cocktails you’ll find at swim-up bars.
Day of the Dead Bread
Get creative with how you mold the dough; these instructions are for shaping crossbones, but you could also make several small loaves or divide the dough into thirds to make a braid.
Apple Caramels
If you don’t have any (or don’t like) hazelnuts, try this autumnal treat with coconut flakes, pecans, walnuts, or peanuts—or simply leave them out.
Curried Butternut Squash Soup
Vegan
For this butternut squash soup recipe, you need to toss the squash occasionally while it’s roasting so it doesn’t burn or stick, and to encourage as much caramelization as possible.
Hard Cider Spritz
Easy
Instead of lemon juice, you can use fresh grapefruit or orange juice; bourbon is a great sub for rye.
Double Ginger Sticky Toffee Pudding
The gooey toffee sauce is both absorbed by the cake for a glossy, polished presentation, and served on the side for extra indulgence. 
Green Posole with Cod and Cilantro
Easy
The lighter, herbier counterpart to porky posole rojo, this brothy stew was made for crisp autumn nights.
Vegan Chocolate Tart With Salted Oat Crust
Vegan
You don’t have to use a vegan chocolate to make this decadent tart—any bittersweet baking bar will be great.
Spiced Green Tahini Sauce
Quick
If you don’t have both spices, it’s okay to omit one or the other.
Seared Mushrooms With Garlic and Thyme
Quick
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. 
Spiced Pear Upside-Down Cake
Consider this nutty, spiced-sweet fruit tart the dessert equivalent to a big, comfy sweater.
Chicken Skin with Peanuts, Chiles, and Lime
This dish of shatteringly crisp chicken skins tossed with peanuts, chiles, and lime is a riff on Chinese salt-and-pepper squid.
Sazerac
Quick
This potent New Orleans nightcap is as much about the aromatic absinthe rinse as it is the Cognac and rye.
Chamomile Panna Cotta with Quince
If you want a shortcut for this quince and chamomile panna cotta recipe, purchase quince paste at a specialty shop and heat it slowly to create a syrup, then simply spoon it over the custards.
Backwoods Bourbon Punch
Quick
We’re partial to the grenadine from Jack Rudy Cocktail Co.
Chicken-Leg Confit with Potatoes and Escarole
Save the extra chicken-infused olive oil for all your roasted vegetable needs or to make this dish a second time.
Whole Wheat–Apple Crisp
Easy
Natalie Chanin is famous for her dead-simple but delicious apple crisp, which is often on the menu at the café in her Alabama Chanin store.
Mushroom and Burrata Lasagnette
Listen, this dish is indulgent and makes a bit more than two responsible adults should finish in one sitting. But for crying out loud, live a little. (And anyway, the kale keeps it virtuous.)
Roasted-Jalapeño Pimiento Cheese Toasts
Easy
Pretty much everyone in the South fights about who’s got the best pimiento cheese recipe. Make these if you want to put the debate to rest.
Kuri Squash Falafel
Vegan
Highly spiced and a touch sweet, this falafel can be made with other fall squash, such as butternut or delicata.
Oven-Roasted Kimchi Chicken
A smaller chicken (something in the two- to three-pound range) will fit in a cast-iron skillet and can go straight from oven to table.
