Teatime Perfect PopoversTBD

These crispy, lighter-than-air popovers make an elegant afternoon treat spread with butter and homemade jam and served with your favorite Assam or Lapsang Souchong blend. It's crucial to follow the recipe, making sure that all ingredients are at room temperature. While a popover pan may seem an extravagance, the depth of the cups creates a dramatic presentation. You can use deep ironstone custard cups, but avoid using muffin tins.

Recipe notes

Hong Kong Egg Scramble

“Soft and pillowy, custardy and light—they were unlike any other scrambled eggs I had experienced before.”

Okonomiyaki Tater Tots

Crispy tots topped with savory-sweet sauce, mayonnaise, furikake, scallion, and katsuobushi.

Pan-Fried Turmeric Bread (Kubez Kimaaj)

Kubez bread, a.k.a. kimaaj, is an Arabic flatbread or pita bread. It’s a staple in the Middle East used as an accompaniment for various dishes or as a wrap.

Palets Bretons

Palets bretons are oversize cookies that feature butter, and because they’re from Brittany, they’re traditionally made with beurre salé, salted butter.

Fufu

Fufu is a dish that has been passed down through many generations and is seen as a symbol of Ghanaian identity and heritage. Making fufu traditionally is a very laborious task; this recipe mimics some of that hard work but with a few home-cook hacks that make for a far easier time.

Grape Dumplings

Native American people made these with cornmeal dumplings, simmering them with wild grapes, which were harvested at their peak sweetness.

Kimchi Gim Bugak (Fried Seaweed Chips)

Bugak is the ideal light beer snack: It’s crunchy, salty, and the fresher it’s made, the better. Thin sheets of kimchi add an extra spicy savory layer.

Kimchi Bloody Mary

The kimchi brine is the secret hero here; just a splash of it brightens the cocktail while deepening it with a little funky je ne sais quoi.
