This Mediterranean-inspired salmon dish is full of fresh herby flavor thanks to a balsamic, basil, and cilantro marinade and basting sauce. Everyone I've made this for loves it!

Chef John's Quiche Lorraine
In my opinion, a proper quiche recipe results in a rich, custardy, and luxurious quiche, not some kind of dense, baked omelet. This recipe has only enough eggs and yolks to hold things together, but that means that before serving, you need to let it cool to just warm to fully enjoy the experience.

Cheese Bourekas
Bourekas are puff pastry pockets filled with cheese. They are great served as an appetizer or for breakfast with salad, olives, cheese, and plain yogurt, the traditional Israeli way. They could also be filled with leftover mashed potatoes or spinach and feta.
