    Strawberries With Balsamic Glaze, Black Pepper, and Tarragon

    How to Make Strawberries With Balsamic Glaze, Black Pepper, and Tarragon

    Balsamic vinegar and black pepper may seem like odd additions to strawberries, but your taste buds will be delighted! The acidity of balsamic glaze, which is just concentrated balsamic vinegar, brings out the sweetness of the strawberries, while the black pepper adds a touch of heat. These strawberries are great on their own, or use them to top vanilla yogurt. Or, serve on top of a bed of spinach as a side dish with dinner.

    Step-By-Step Instructions:

    1. In a large serving bowl, combine the strawberries and balsamic glaze. Grind the black pepper on top and gently mix. Garnish with sprigs of tarragon.
    2. * Balsamic glaze (sometimes called balsamic syrup) can be found where vinegars are sold. To make your own, heat 3 Tbsp. of balsamic vinegar in a saucepan. Bring to lightly boiling and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vinegar is thickened and reduced to half its volume.

    How to Make Spiced Turkey Breast With Apple Chutney


    20 min prep time


    1 hr 15 min cook time


    16servings


    3 oz. turkey, 2 Tbsp. chutney

    Print Recipe >

    Step-By-Step Instructions:

    1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Pat the turkey breast dry and place on a rack set in a shallow roasting pan. Loosen the skin by inserting your fingers, gently pushing between the skin and the meat. 
    2. In a small bowl, combine the orange juice, 2 tsp of the ginger, 1 tsp of the cinnamon, 1 tsp of the cloves, allspice, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture on the breast meat, under the skin. Insert a meat thermometer into the meaty part of the breast, making sure it doesn’t touch the breastbone. Roast the breast uncovered for about 1 hour, 15 minutes, or until the meat thermometer registers 170 degrees. Check the turkey every 15 minutes or so as it roasts to avoid any overbrowning. Cover with foil if the breast meat starts to get too brown. After 30 minutes of roasting, you may also lower the oven to 350 degrees if the turkey is cooking too quickly. 
    3. Meanwhile, prepare the chutney. In a saucepan, combine the red onion, brown sugar, rice vinegar, raisins, remaining 1/2 tsp ginger, remaining 1/4 tsp cinnamon, remaining 1/4 tsp cloves, and crushed red pepper, and bring to boiling. Cover, reduce the heat, and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and cool for 10 minutes. Fold in the apples.
    4. Remove the turkey breast to a platter and let it stand, loosely covered with foil, for about 10 minutes before serving. 
    5. To serve, slice the turkey, discard the skin, and serve with the chutney. Store the remaining 1 cup chutney, covered, in the refrigerator for up to three days.

    Roasted Winter Vegetables

    How to Make Roasted Winter Vegetables

    Roasting winter root vegetables caramelizes their natural sugars, producing a complex, toasty, and lightly sweet flavor. This recipe calls for a variety of winter vegetables, but you could use any combination, as long as you end up with about 12 cups total of bite-size pieces. This recipe can easily be cut in half if you’re not cooking for a crowd. For added acidity, you could drizzle lightly with balsamic vinegar just before serving.

    Step-By-Step Instructions:

    1. Bring a 6-quart pot of water, filled 2/3 full, to boiling. Add the salt. Add the green beans and turn off the heat. Let the green beans stand in the water for 3 to 4 minutes. Drain. Plunge the green beans into a bowl of ice water. Drain the beans; set aside.
    2. In a large skillet, heat the butter and oil over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, for 20 to 25 minutes, until very soft. Lower the heat if the onions begin to brown too quickly.
    3. Add the thyme and green beans to the onions and heat through, using tongs to gently turn the vegetables. To serve, place the onion–green bean mixture on a platter and top with the almonds and lemon zest.
