NY Times recipes

[Anonymous]

I was unexpectedly gifted an NYT subscription including Cooking. So...what recipes should I be excited to try first? I already know I have seen the chicken shawarma mentioned frequently here - what else?

I don’t have a specific recipe to try, but just wanted to say that the app has essentially replaced cookbooks or all other cooking websites for me. In general the recipes are solid, and so I don’t bother searching around and wondering if things will turn out.

Oh, actually, I do have a rec - search for the apple cake made in a tart pan. It is described as a sort of apple blondie, and it is absolutely delicious.

This question is asked every month or two so I would start with a search

Agree with the poster who mentioned that the recipes are solid. Comments are usually very helpful if you read through them. They sort/organize by most helpful. Also, it's where I find most of my recipes these days.

Get the app and start looking through recipes and find the recipe authors you like. Melissa Clark is a great starting point. And follow NYT Cooking on Instagram because they post lots of their most popular recipes.

We really like the honey chicken tacos and the rosemary and goat cheese polenta.

San Siftons cod cakes are a favorite in my house.

No knead bread, slow cooker lentil soup with sausage and greens, sheet pan shrimp (scampi and Greek-style), skillet vegetarian chili. You really can’t go wrong, most of their recipes are fantastic and there’s always lots of helpful comments.

Start with something you or the kids like.

Anything by Melissa Clark. And look at the comments. They will tell you if it’s worth it, or what you can do to make it better. Have fun!

Totally agree with your first part --- and I have more than a few beautiful cookbooks.

Go to "collections" and see if any strike your fancy. "What to cook when you'd rather be doing anything else"; "weeknight dinners", and "pantry..." are 3 collections that sound like might fit the bill.

In this weekend's At Home there was a sheetpan ginger chicken with bok choi which we loved.
