Jan 9, 2023
Japanese udon noodles, which cook in a matter of minutes, soak up all of the slightly spicy umami-rich sauce in this stir-fry. Cubes of golden tofu make the meat-free supper substantial. You can also use cubed chicken or pork. Cost: $2/serving
Instead of an icing, these pumpkin pie-spiced muffins are dressed up with a complementary maple spread. In a hurry? Omit spread and serve as is or with butter.
A fried coating of sweet potato starch gives this chicken its uniquely chewy yet crispy texture. Sweet potato starch is a specialty product in Taiwanese and Fujian cooking. It is available in fine and coarse grind; coarse is best for frying. Buy it at a Chinese or Korean grocer. No other starch produces the same texture, but if it's unavailable, you can use cornstarch.
Dried apricots and prunes not only sweeten the sauce but also break down slightly, helping to thicken it. Make the dish a day ahead to allow flavours to combine and to ease preparations.
A bright, citrusy sauce and tender veggies make this salmon and noodle salad a fresh-tasting dinner option. Marmalade or jam with minimal added sugar works best for this dish, so look for a spread sweetened with fruit juice only.?
Enjoy the taste of summer long after the season has passed. Choose ripe firm blush-red peaches for vibrant-looking syrup. The lemon juice mixture prevents the peaches from discolouring.
Dark, rich and sticky-sweet, these two-bite single-rib portions make for easy handling. Pass the moist towelettes.
