Weeknight Porchetta
Sometimes it's okay to cut corners: Here we make the classic Italian dish with bacon and skip the multiday air-drying process. It's not traditional, but it sure is delicious

Freekeh Paella with Clams and Almond Aioli
Fair to say we're pretty much obsessed with this nut-based (egg-free!) aioli. Try it with walnuts, too.

Bean and Walnut Salad with Fried Eggs
If you don’t have time to make a batch of flageolets from scratch, choose the best canned cannellini beans you can find. We're a big fan of Bioitalia beans.

Spanish Tortilla Bites with Winter Greens and Garlic
The Spanish Tortilla (or Tortilla Española) is not actually a tortilla at all--at least in the way most Americans understand the term. Instead, tortilla is a large, delicious frittata of eggs and potatoes. This fresh take on the classic Spanish dish is a great make-ahead, single-bite hors d'oeuvre for a cocktail party. The mild base ingredients are a great canvas for added layers of flavor, and, once you learn the technique, the variations are endless. It is delicious served warm, room temperature or even cold, and is a great, filling option for any gluten-free guests you might be catering to.

Endive Cups With Beet, Persimmon and Marinated Feta
This is a gorgeous, seasonal hors d'oeuvre that would be lovely on a table or as a passed appetizer. The tang of the feta compliments the sweetness of the salad and the bitterness of the endive leaf, and the jewel tones of the beet and persimmon make for a beautiful bite.

Pomegranate and Fennel Glazed Rack of Lamb
Two racks make enough for each person to have two chops. Cut between each bone individually for single chops, or cut into double-rib portions.

Braised Veal Shanks with Bacon-Parmesan Crumbs
There's marrow in those bones! Scoop out the cooked marrow and whisk it into the braising liquid, or eat it on a crust of bread with salt. You earned it.
