Brunch

Whole wheat phyllo dough makes a crispy crust for this lively potato tart with the flavors of mustard greens, lemon thyme, and goat cheese.

This traditional Greek yeast bread is flavored with bright orange zest, floral anise, and pine-like mastic.

Baking a single large-format tamal in a foil-covered pan set in a roasting pan of hot water produces a similarly tender texture to the corn husk–wrapped variety. The result is a moist, barely sweet cake with pudding vibes.

Parmesan and thyme make this Dutch baby decidedly savory—but the real beauty here is that the batter can be made up to two days in advance and kept in the fridge for an easy, romantic breakfast for two.

This frittata intentionally takes much longer than the usual version. Cooked over a low flame, the act of folding the curds over themselves again and again in the skillet creates soft layers like those found in Japanese-style omelets.

Crisping mushrooms in bacon fat infused with rosemary gives this salad satisfying texture and rich, comforting flavor, enhanced by a runny poached egg.

It’s a wrap griddled in sausage fat until the outside is crispy and warm. Need we say more?

When in doubt, frittata. This version turns greens-and-beans into a complete one-skillet supper.

Ever wish you could master restaurant-style egg toasts? Well now you can with this salty, smoky, creamy combo. Crème fraîche is the secret ingredient for a custardy scramble, and high-quality smoked fish and good bread are worth the splurge—they make all the difference here.
