Click here The Most Popular Recipes of AprilThey say April showers bring May flowers, but in our world, they bring an abundance of spring produce we can't wait to play with. When not dreaming of asparagus salads and ramp butter, we wrote about the best way to dispose of cooking oil (and the best way to clean a sticky pot, for that matter). We rounded up the best of the best knives from our many tests. Oh, and in case you missed it, we played a pretty good April Fool's Day prank (or two!). Stella broke the internet with her new Levain-style thick-and-gooey chocolate chip cookies. The entire office has been eating Sasha's XO sauce on just about everything. Sho introduced us to the wonders of shio (or "salt-flavored") ramen. Below are our most popular recipes of the month. If you missed the boat on them, now's your chance to make them in May! Try Them Out for Yourself! XO sauce is a jammy condiment packed with the meaty and rich flavors of cured ham, dried shrimp, dried scallops, and a whole lot more. It's like French onion soup in an easy-to-pick-up, extra-buttery package. Don't throw out the mango pits and peels! Keep them and make this easy syrup, perfect for cocktails and desserts. With gooey homemade caramel, creamy milk chocolate, and crunchy rice, these no-bake cookies are as satisfying as a candy bar, but way easier to make. Roasted pork shoulder chashu is a classic topping for ramen, and our tried-and-true reverse-sear method makes it easy to get the final temperature you want. These giant chocolate chip cookies are more than dessert; they're an emotional journey of epic proportions. Tender enough that you can eat it in a taco or burrito, but substantial enough to be served as a steak and eaten with a knife and fork. |
