Summery Eggplant Parmesan from Food and Wine. This has several steps, including roasting the vegetables that make the sauce (the roasting gives it great depth), and grilling the eggplant. So not a really quick recipe, but Carl thinks it is the best eggplant recipe he has had. We give this an enthusiastic 5!

Limoncello Spritz from Food and Wine. This is very simple (limoncello and sparkling wine) but perfect for a 100+ degree day. We give it a 5.

Khoresh Rivas (Savory Rhubarb and Bean Stew) from NYT Cooking. The combination of flavors in Persian food is not quite like other cuisines we have cooked, and it uses large amounts of herbs. This is pleasant, with the flavors not so much layered as combining into a single flavor. We would have preferred a little more variation from bite to bite. We give this a 3. >

Yum Goong (Thai Shrimp and Lychee Salad), from Food and Wine. Since we didn’t have fresh lychees in H-Mart, we used longans. The flavor are really good. We give this a 4.
