Goat is a delicious, mild-flavored meat that is overlooked in the U.S. This recipe results in a tender, savory dish that, while unusual, is still basically good old comfort food. This would be great to serve with Israeli-style couscous; alternatively, you could add some potato chunks to the pan halfway through the cooking.

- salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion , chopped

Heat the oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season the goat shoulder with salt and pepper, and place into the pan. Brown quickly on all sides. Add the onions to the pan, and cook, stirring constantly until browned. Mix in the prunes and preserved lemon; cook and stir for a few minutes to blend the flavors.

Miso Gochujang Beef Ragu
This beef ragu has a couple of unexpected ingredients—Korean gochujang chili paste provides some heat, and Japanese blond miso adds umami—two additions that play surprisingly well in a traditionally Italian-inspired sauce.
Onigiri (Japanese Rice Balls)
This easy onigiri recipe is also fun to make! These rice balls are a staple of Japanese lunchboxes (bento). You can put almost anything in these rice balls; try substituting grilled salmon, pickled plums, beef, pork, turkey, or tuna with mayonnaise.
Manju (Japanese Sweet Bean Paste Cookies)
These baked manju are filled with koshi an, a smooth paste made of red (azuki) beans and sugar. This recipe uses canned koshi an from the Asian grocery, which saves hours of work.
