Gourmet Game Night

Gourmet Game Night

Cynthia Nims

"Gourmet Game Night" has the solution for an evening of game-playing with no greasy fingers : instead of relying on conventional convenience snacks and standbys, you ve got imaginative, homemade options; instead of greasy hands and game pieces, you've got mess-free, bite-sized snacks.

The Editors of Saveur

Few things can make people as happy as a great bowl of soup, believe Saveur’s editors, and the recipes in this collection are a strong argument in support. The soups and stews are as wide-ranging as you’d expect from Saveur, including the likes of Icelandic Langoustine Soup, Hyderabadi-style Dal and Senegalese Peanut & Chicken Stew.

Argentinian Empanadas, Odila’s Style

Les Dames d'Escoffier New York Cookbook: Stirring the Pot

"As soon as we moved to the United States from Buenos Aires in 1968, we discovered the Argentine neighborhood of Corona, Queens, where we were fortunate to be able to purchase all our favorite foods, including the dough rounds used to make our famous meat empanadas. Since then, I make them monthly (and also freeze them for future delight) for all our family members to enjoy! The best part of making empanadas is that you can fill them with anything you like. My daughter is now a “flegan” (a flexible vegan), so vegetarian and/or cheese ones are her current favorites. My son, who lives far away, likes them all, so I send him care packages of frozen empanadas via next-day delivery. My husband is a traditionalist who requests no changes to the original recipe. If you are adventurous and want to make your own dough, you can certainly look up the recipe, but if you are like me, you can go the “lazy” route and buy the rounds at your favorite local Latin market. I recommend La Saltena brand." Odila Galer-Noel

Newsletter: 🌿 Fresh spring foraging + cooking across Spain with Hemingway 🇪🇸

For Scottish chef Clare Coghill, spring is when the landscape around her on the Isle of Skye bursts with new life, and is the perfect time for foraging. As she puts it:

‘We call Spring ‘an t-earrach’ which literally means for plants to spring forth from the ground. And the ground is exactly where I look when I start foraging for the year.’

An t-earrach – Spring on the Isle of Skye

An t-earrach – Spring on the Isle of Skye

Chef Clare Coghill runs Café Cùil on the Isle of Skye. She is a native, born and bred on the Scottish island, where her family have run a hotel for more than 100 years. Skye is blessed with ane exceptional range of seasonal local produce, and at Café Cùil, Clare and here team make the most of this, including foraging for wild ingredients which grow locally. If you have never tried a wild gorse flapjack (or latte) you don’t know what you are missing.
