Sweet, Hot Mustard Slaw
I enjoy a wide variety of coleslaws, but this recipe for sweet, hot mustard slaw may be my fave. The combo of hot and sweet has a proven track record for pleasing palates. Salting and massaging your cabbage first (aka "cassage") will help draw out water, sweetening the flavor, and yielding a flexible yet still crunchy texture, which I think is lacking in many other "chop and mix" recipes. Garnish with chives and chive blossoms.
Chef John's Waldorf Salad
A fruit salad has to be pretty darn good to actually get a name, and the venerable Waldorf salad is certainly worthy. Embellish this as you see fit, but I really like it best with just the four ingredients seen here. Things like dried cranberries can add a nice seasonal touch but, for me, the chewy fruit gets in the way of that addictive crunchy/crisp texture.
Brussels Sprouts with Bacon Dressing
This creative uncooked Brussels sprouts with bacon dressing recipe has a great contrast between the raw, crunchy vegetable and the rich, smoky bacon dressing.
The Brutus Salad
This Brutus salad with apple, romaine, herbs, Cheddar, toasted pecans, and a Dijon vinaigrette, is amazing. I think it could be the next national favorite, so watch your back, Caesar! It was inspired by a salad I had at a restaurant in Healdsburg, CA.
Chef John's Classic Macaroni Salad
This deli-style macaroni salad recipe will always be a crowd-pleaser, whether sitting next to some smoky ribs or just a humble hot dog. Just pay attention to a few key details as you make it. Top with sliced green onions if desired.
The Perfect Picnic Pasta Salad
Pasta salad is almost always the most disappointing side dish at the picnic or cookout, but this recipe shows you how to transform what is normally an afterthought to a dish that's good enough to enjoy on its own, or as the perfect complement to grilled meat. Top this with extra fresh chopped herbs if you like.
Chicken Noodle Salad
Get ready to make all sorts of friends when you bring a big bowl of this Asian chicken noodle salad to the next big cookout. The only folks you might scare away are the ones who brought regular pasta salads. There's just something delightfully addictive about this special combination of cold and spicy. This recipe is the perfect catchall for all those summer vegetables we're supposed to be eating more of, as well as any dry leftover chicken you have around.
Grilled Shrimp Louie
The dressing for this dish is made to use with crab, but I think the smoky grilled shrimp are a great summertime twist. Make the dressing ahead of time and chill it before you adjust the seasonings.
Chef John's Creamy Blue Cheese Dressing
A cheese grater and a wedge of frozen blue cheese feature in this top-secret method for creamy blue cheese dressing. The grated cheese blends in perfectly as opposed to larger chunks which just sink to the bottom.
French Onion Green Bean Casserole
A classic green bean casserole is elevated with some of my favorite flavors from French onion soup — caramelized onions and Gruyère cheese.
Grilled Hearts of Romaine
This is truly and ridiculously easy. The trick is to get the grill grates very hot. And the result? A lightly caramelized surface and a slightly smoky flavor. The insides stay cool and crisp. It's quite a contrast of tastes and textures.
Chef John's Sweet Potato Casserole
Unlike many sweet potato casseroles, this one is not too sweet. It smells so amazing, with subtly sweet potatoes accentuated with maple syrup and a pistachio topping. It's a wonderful combination of taste and textures.
