Robyn Stone’s Georgia Peach Crisp
If you are looking for a dessert that will garner umms, ahhhs, and more yums than you can imagine, this peach crisp is your ticket! Robyn Stone’s recipe calls for less butter and sugar than traditional recipes, leaving you with the heady taste of peaches instead of sugar. If peaches are not in season, you can substitute another in-season fruit such as apples, pears, blueberries, or blackberries.
Raghavan Iyer’s Hasselback Potatoes with Cardamom Butter
This accordion display of the common potato is perfumed with cardamom (a spice often incorporated in Christmas fare in Sweden) is Raghavan Iyer’s take on the classic. Crispy on the outside with a crackly pork-like skin, the creamy insides make for a delectable contrast in textures.
