Bitter, Leafy Salad This is a great bitter, peppery salad to serve alongside just about anything. It’s simple, it’s quick to make, and it’s an especially nice antidote to braised meats.
Chicken and Escarole Salad With Anchovy Croutons Think of this salad as an umami-charged version of a classic Caesar. The central difference is that the egg yolk, which is typically emulsified into a creamy dressing, is plopped directly onto the lettuces, leaving you to break it and let it mingle with the salty, garlicky, lemony dressing.
Sweet and Salty Grilled Pork With Citrus and Herbs Typically prepared as a long-cooked stew or braise, pork shoulder is remarkably (and perhaps surprisingly) fantastic when treated like a steak.
Lemony White Beans With Anchovy and Parmesan These white beans could potentially be a whole meal, but they are also great alongside another protein since they pull double duty as both starch and salad.
