As part of an ongoing series in which I review Trader Joe's seasonal products, I gave the chain's summer offerings a try. These crispy jalapeño pieces would elevate just about any summer mealI had heard great things about Trader Joe's crispy jalapeño pieces. No frozen treat is complete without one of Trader Joe's organic sugar conesThis sugar cone paired well with Trader Joe's peach-crisp ice cream. As my experience is with most Trader Joe's salad kits, I think it also could've used a lot more dressing.

☆ Comfort Cooking Beyond Casseroles
▼ + stars: | 2024-01-25 | by ( The New York Times Cooking | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +1 min

Any conversation about comfort cooking has to include roast chicken. Colu Henry’s roast chicken with maple butter and rosemary is a little sweet, a little salty, very savory and tremendously comforting. Ali Slagle’s recipe really lets you slouch into it, too. Love Your LeftoversThe herbal-sweet, rosemary-maple flavors of the roast chicken would be really nice in Ali’s 10-minute chicken salad with fennel and charred dates. And leftover roasted peppers, greens and beans would convert quite easily into a quick minestrone.

I've been following the Mediterranean diet for years, and I've learned a lot of simple recipes. I take a minimalist approach to my diet and often only use a few ingredients in my meals. I've discovered a love for orange, avocado, and shrimp saladI wasn't initially convinced that orange, mustard, and shrimp went together. I've concocted a Mediterranean version of a make-your-own pizzaIf you have an at-home dinner date coming up, make some puff-pastry pizza together. I've only recently discovered tofu, and I've been enjoying adding it to salads and grain bowls for a protein boost.

I put a stint of endless scrolling to good use by using the app to decide the itinerary for my latest vacation. So, like TikTok users said, early morning is probably the best time for a tourist to first experience the amusement park. Amarachi Orie/CNNWith a name meaning “Yellow Beach,” this place was an aesthetic wonder, which explains why it came up on TikTok. Amarachi Orie/CNNThis beach club on the Veronica Strip was recommended by TikTok users as the place to be to enjoy the island’s nightlife.

☆ Eggplant Extravaganza
▼ + stars: | 2023-08-17 | by ( Tanya Sichynsky | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +2 min

has a bumper crop!” — AmyIf you find eggplant inedible, either because of its texture or taste, you want recipes that use up as much produce as possible while making it largely undetectable. In Kay Chun’s eggplant and bean chili, eggplant is simmered in a garlicky tomato sauce until it collapses into a chile-spiced ragù. Pairing stewed eggplant with aromatics and protein-packed legumes is a solid strategy: Kay does it again in her recipe for eggplant dal, in which cumin, coriander, garlic, ginger and fresh chile season lentils and eggplant. Bitter eggplant is often undercooked eggplant. And if you’re frustrated with the results of sautéing and baking, try steaming: In about 10 minutes, strips of eggplant are rendered silky in Hetty Lui McKinnon’s recipe for liang ban qie zi, eggplant with garlic, ginger and scallions.

☆ 5 times scientists thought they'd maybe discovered signs of extraterrestrial life but sadly didn't
▼ + stars: | 2023-02-23 | by ( Morgan Mcfall-Johnsen | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +7 min

Extraterrestrial life could exist, but mysterious objects in the sky aren't evidence of aliens. Scientists have thought they were close to discovering alien life a few times — none of it via UFOs. As the US discovered a flurry of UFOs — officially called "unidentified anomalous phenomena," or UAPs — in early February, Google searches for "extraterrestrial life" and "are aliens real" spiked. There have been incidents in the past where some researchers thought they'd come close to discovering signs of alien life — or even extraterrestrial intelligence — but none were UFOs. They dubbed the first interstellar object 'Oumuamua, which is a Hawaiian term meaning "a messenger from afar arriving first."

Bagna cauda is an Italian dipping sauce for vegetables made from anchovies, garlic, butter and olive oil. Anchovies in pastaFinally, the same strategy of dissolving the umami flavors of anchovies in a sauce comes into play when making a rich and comforting pasta. When buying anchoviesWhen choosing a tin or jar of anchovies, Roman said to make sure the anchovies are oil-packed, salt-cured anchovy fillets, not brined, pickled or whole anchovies. Though the ingredients in each container should be the same — anchovies, salt and olive oil — the fillets will vary in saltiness, taste and texture.

GOOD FUNGUS Roast the mushrooms first to concentrate their flavor and ensure that they crisp nicely on the pizza as it cooks. THE BRIGHT-GREEN SAUCE might be what you notice first about this pizza, but wild mushrooms are “what this is all about,” said chef Javier Ramirez. His third Slow Food Fast recipe is a streamlined take on a pizza that’s been on the menu at his Miami restaurant, La Natural, since it opened. Here, the finished pizza gets a good drizzle of garlicky oil and a scattering of fresh parsley. “We’re herb and vegetable forward at La Natural,” the chef said.

“I think in every country in the world, historically, some soups were seen as restorative.”That’s true no matter what you call it. These are CNN Travel’s nominations for 20 of the best soups around the world:Banga | NigeriaBanga is so popular in Nigeria that shops sell ready-mixed packets of spice. By 1930, Nguyen explained, the soup was served with slices of raw beef cooked gently in the broth. Today, beef pho remains the most beloved version in Vietnam, with options that include the original raw beef, a mix of raw and cooked beef, brisket and tendon. Slip them into a bowl of beef broth for a world-class soup that includes tender beef, pale slices of radish, chili oil and fresh herbs.
