Apricot-Stuffed Pork Shoulder with Soy-Honey Glaze

Go to Recipe

Pork shoulder is a succulent cut that's best braised or roasted slowly, so it stays tender and juicy. The sweet-and-savory glazed pork here is terrific with or without the garlic-and-dried-apricot stuffing. The glaze includes soy sauce, honey and sesame oil.

Quinoa, Artichoke and Hearts of Palm Salad

Go to Recipe

Few crops grow at Andean altitudes of 10,000 feet. One that does is quinoa, a nutty, high-protein grain that was both a pre-Incan and Incan staple. Emmanuel Piqueras mixes this grain with artichokes, an ingredient brought to Peru by the Spanish, to create this crunchy salad tossed with a tart dressing of wine vinegar and avocado oil.

Warm Camembert with Wild Mushroom Fricassee

Go to Recipe

Daniel Boulud makes this oozy appetizer with Vacherin Mont-d'Or, a creamy cheese sold at top cheese shops. Camembert is as rich and runny as Vacherin Mont-d'Or, but much easier to find. He tops the cheese with mushrooms sautéed in walnut oil.

Crunchy Almond-Crusted Duck Breasts with Chanterelle Salad

Go to Recipe

Duck is often paired with something sweet, as in canard à l'orange. Jean-Georges Vongerichten tops it here with chopped sugar-coated almonds. The sugar burns slightly as the meat is broiled to form a bittersweet crust that pairs beautifully with the juicy richness of the duck. He serves it with a chanterelle salad dressed with a nutty vinaigrette.
