We’re holding on to summer with a celebration of everything that’s abundant in the market right now. We’ve got summer salad recipe ideas for your next party. Think: watermelon and shaved vegetables. Plus, rosé sangria (two ways!), and cookbook author and teacher Domenica Marchetti preserves fruit and vegetables the real Italian way. You can too. Domenica also shares a burger recipe she tops with an onion jam you’ll want to eat by the spoonful. Also this week, we sip a dry $9 rosé from the Bordeaux region that we say begs for experimentation. Make it a spritzer, add a little blood orange liqueur to it, make it into ice cubes. The possibilities are endless.
