Smoked Salmon Crisps

F&W Best New Chef 1988 Thomas Keller’s salmon cornets (tuiles shaped into tiny cones and topped with crème fraîche and fresh salmon), are a famous kickoff to his luxe and whimsical meals at the French Laundry in Napa Valley. The original recipe appears in The French Laundry Cookbook (Artisan).

Fresh Ricotta and Radish Crostini

Homemade ricotta cheese is completely delicious and unbelievably easy to prepare—all it takes is milk, lemon juice and a little heat. Chef Paul Kahan spreads it on crostini, then adds a few slices of pretty red radish and a sprinkling of pepper.

Asparagus Tempura

This supercrispy tempura from chef Michael Schlow is one of his favorites. “I love anything fried, and it’s the perfect cocktail party dish since no knife or fork is necessary,” he says. Try serving the tempura with different sauces, like a high-quality soy sauce or curried mayonnaise.

Five-Spice Short Ribs with Udon Noodles

Chewy udon noodles have a mild flavor that’s wonderful with the delicate spices in this rich beef broth from Best New Chef 2003 Nobuo Fukuda. Udon is available at Asian markets and some supermarkets, but if you can’t find them, Italian egg noodles are the best alternative.

Reblochon Tarts with Bacon and Fingerling Potatoes

With a golden layer of puff pastry topped by caramelized onions, soft potatoes, bacon and tangy Reblochon cheese, Terrance Brennan’s tart is lighter than the sum of its parts, making for a satisfying dish that’s great any time of day.

Warm Camembert with Wild Mushroom Fricassee

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.
