Charring a medley of aromatics, including onion, garlic, and chiles, and blending them with canned fire-roasted tomatoes gives the soup a deep smoky flavor. Adding crushed tortilla chips to the simmering pot helps to thicken the soup and enhances the savory corn flavor. Filling individual bowls with soup and then broiling them briefly with a layer of tortilla chips and cheese creates a great crunchy, cheesy topping. Every now and then, a Tex Mex-style ground beef taco really hits the spot.

Tart Granny Smith apples help offset the sweetness of the glaze. Making the glaze with apple cider gives the fritters an even more pomaceous flavor. My husband and I spent months soliciting food recommendations from people ahead of a trip to Memphis, Tennessee, in June of 2022.

The precise temperature control of sous-vide cooking allows you to cook perfectly silky “baked” eggs. Adding a small amount of cornstarch or rice starch ensures the egg mixture thickens to a custard-like texture once cooked. I’ve spent my fair share of money at Starbucks, especially on seasonal lattes and extravagant iced teas.

Gather the ingredients. Stir together 2 cups ultra-pasteurized heavy whipping cream and 2 tablespoons cultured buttermilk (whole milk or low fat) in a small non-reactive container, such as a glass mason jar. Cover with a lid or cheesecloth and let stand at room temperature until thickened, 24 to 36 hours. Cover and refrigerate 12 hours before serving. Crème fraîche will continue to thicken as it chills. Refrigerate in an airtight container for up 2 weeks.

Total Time: 5 hrs 10 mins It's not just any drink that can be called a New Year's punch. This one is made with tart cranberry and pomegranate juice, which works really well with the sparkling wine and lemon-lime soda. The juice's astringency and berry notes complement the wine, resulting in a sharp base that isn’t too sweet, which is good because a frozen sherbet ring brings all the sweetness. This punch is very fruity in all the right ways.
