Ratatouille Pasta
If we were to round up an all-star team of summer's greatest produce, it'd look a little something like ratatouille: Eggplant and zucchini. Peppers and tomatoes. The gang's all here!

Greens Gratin With All the Cheese
Here's a fun party trick: Ask your friends to guess how many pounds of greens went into this supremely cheesy gratin. Three huge bunches of kale (and/or chard) get drowned in garlic- and rosemary-infused cream, then blanketed in cheddar cheese and panko and sent into a hot oven, where they sizzle and shrink.

Pork and Cabbage Hot Pot
Easier to make than it looks, this Japanese nabe, or hot pot, consists of concentric circles of fat-rimmed pork belly and frilly Napa cabbage, organized into some kind of savory Edible Arrangement and simmered in dashi until slack and succulent. Here's how to do it.

Turmeric-Ginger Chicken Soup
Chicken noodle soup never gets old. If you don’t have udon for this recipe, use rice noodles or regular old spaghetti. A small knob of fresh turmeric can replace the dried type.

Quick Miso Soup
No need for powdered packets here: Just pack a thermos with veggies, tofu, and miso in the morning. Come snacktime, you’re a cupful of water and a couple of minutes away from a delicious, bone-warming soup.

Spicy Pork and Mustard Green Soup
It might look like a lot when the greens are raw, but add them all anyway. They’ll quickly wilt down to a silky texture.

Spicy Kimchi Slaw
We traded the goopy sweet mayo dressing in your typical cole slaw for a whipped, airy kimchi dressing. Cabbage two ways!
