Fresh basil is among the widely used herbs in Mediterranean cooking, and almost everyone I know enjoys its aromatic, sweet, and somewhat minty flavor. It can be the one ingredient to add a pop of fresh flavor and color to your meal! I use basil all summer long in things like panzanella, tomato basil soup, and grilled pizza! We all know fresh basil is tricky to keep alive past a couple of days without the leaves wilting and turning dark on you....

Turn up the flavor with chermoula! Chermoula or charmoula, pronounced sher-moo-lah, is a popular North African condiment or sauce made of fresh herbs such as parsley and cilantro, with garlic, citrus and warm spices. Traditionally, chermoula is made using a pestle and mortar to meld the flavors while keeping the condiment thick, textured, and not too smooth. I took a shortcut and used my food processor. Just a few pulses is all you need....

Vegan means you do not consume any animal products such as meat, dairy, eggs, honey, or any other ingredient that is sourced from an animal. I am personally not vegan, but my husband is vegetarian. So we do eat a lot of naturally vegan and vegetarian dishes. I am sharing here a variety of vegan plant-based meals we make frequently. All of these recipes are made in the Instant Pot, but can also be made in a stovetop pressure cooker or in a pan....

Aioli is similar to what we know as mayo, but with a bracing amount of fresh garlic—vampires beware! Garlic has always been part of this French condiment, so calling it “garlic aioli” is kind of redundant. They are, in fact, one in the same. Commonly served as a dip with fresh or cooked vegetables, aioli is also stirred into soups and stews like Bourride, a Provencal fish stew. In the States, we often see it on restaurant menus served alongside fries or slathered on a hamburger....

One of my secret weapons during the holidays is to present my guests with beautiful, sophisticated appetizers that look difficult, but in reality take only a few minutes to assemble. This is especially true for cheese, which is always a crowd-pleaser and easy to dress up for any occasion, like my phyllo-wrapped Greek baked feta, fried halloumi, goat cheese stuffed dates, or today’s baked brie recipe. The holidays are busy, which means simple-to-prepare appetizers make my life (and soon to be yours) a lot easier!...

But that’s not all… The hallmark of this sauce, and what makes fra diavolo different from say a spaghetti sauce or another Italian tomato sauce, is that fra diavolo sauce is fiery hot, thanks to the use of red chili flakes (and sometimes fresh chilis, depending on the recipe)....

Whenever I’m in Rome, I always order a bowl of cacio e pepe at least once.

For just a few simple ingredients, Caesar Salad is an impressive culinary feat. Even as picky eaters when we were little, Caesar dressing was one the few ways my brother and I would eat green vegetables, as a dip for raw veggies (like a kid’s crudité platter!) or spread over cooked veggies like roasted broccoli. The original Caesar Salad recipe is attributed to the Italian restaurateur Caesar Cardini who created it at his restaurant in Tijuana....
