One-Pot Sticky Chicken Wings

“A few years ago, I went to Malaysia for the first time and spent every second I could on New Lane in Penang. It’s arguably the single greatest street-food stroll in the world. Among the hundreds of stalls are a few that turn out chicken wings and chicken quarters glazed with the classic Chinese master sauce that I can’t eat enough of. Sticky and fatty, the best versions of this dish emulsify the chicken fat into the sauce as it reduces. Think of it as a schmaltz version of beurre monté! I wish I could insist that you fly to Penang to enjoy the best version of this yummy concoction, but that would be lying.” —Andrew Zimmern

Cream of Carrot Soup with Ginger and Curry

“Carrots and curry were born for each other and Michael Voltaggio’s cold carrot salad with Thai flavors is so superbly crafted that I thought about it for days after trying it. At home I don’t do anything with liquid nitrogen or as many bells and whistles as Michael does in his restaurant, nor should you. That’s the joy of dining out, to see what great chefs can do. On the home front, I love taking that inspiration and creating dishes like this one.”—Andrew Zimmern
