Inoue loves to use this marinade on any cut of beef (hanger is another favorite), chicken wings, or pork ribs.

Solar salt is coarse and crunchy and keeps its shape; Asian markets stock it, but kosher salt is fine, too.

This sauce goes with pretty much any grilled meat; stir leftovers into yogurt to make a dip.

Toss together just before serving to prevent wilting.

Where a chutney and mustard sauce overlap. Choose a very ripe– even bruised–peach for easy peeling.

Smoky, sweet, crusty, and beefy, with charred bones to gnaw on: If this isn't a perfect steak, we don't know what is.

The turnips will taste great after just one week in the pickling liquid, but for that full-on saturated pink hue, let them sit for two full weeks.

Rosemary, both herbal and floral, elevates the flavor of the Concord grape, while black pepper adds spiciness.

The jammy mash-up of berries with coconut milk and cardamom makes these pops just rich enough-and irresistible.

Bar-shaped desserts abound in the Midwest. This version is particularly rich.

An overnight soak in buttermilk and a few key spices makes for the most flavorful, tender fried chicken.

Rhode Island-style calamari, which is served with hot cherry peppers, is a local favorite. Look for medium-size fresh or frozen squid (about eight to a pound) for frying.

A touch of horseradish gives this cured salmon recipe warmth and a bit of bite, while the beets give it earthy sweetness and vibrant color.
