Here’s more great news about eating greens: Researchers have discovered that the sugar sulfoquinovose, found in leafy greens such as spinach, arugula and kale, promotes digestive health. The sugar fuels healthy gut bacteria, which crowd out the bad bacteria. Use leafy greens for the pestos in the booklet on page 128 (see numbers 12, 13, 14, 15 and 30).

HAVE SECONDS! Two breakfasts are better than none: A new study tracking almost 600 middle schoolers found that students who ate two breakfasts a day didn’t gain any more weight than students who ate one, whereas kids who skipped breakfast (or ate it irregularly) were twice as likely to be obese. Try our bagel bar on page 182 as a fun breakfast—first or second!

This pesto is made with kale!

We ORGANICS! Splurging on organic meat and milk could be good for your heart: These foods have more heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids than their nonorganic counterparts, a recent study found. This is likely because the animals tend to eat grass, which is higher in omega-3s than grain. Try going organic with meat recipes such as these:

Editor’s Letter

Themes Themes come true come true

During the past year, my daughters have been to a dance party, a jungle party, a robot party, a pajama party, an American Girl party, an ice cream party, a cupcake-making party, a chocolate-making party, a painting party and a Taylor Swift rock-star party. In that same amount of time, I have been to exactly one theme party: a Southern brunch, and it was in our office conference room.

I need more theme parties in my life. We all do, really, because as every kid knows, a party is much more fun when you can design a table and your food (and maybe even your outfit) around one idea.

My older sister threw a surprise luau for my 16th birthday and I remember it like it was yesterday: The boys were in Hawaiian shirts, the girls were wearing leis. The lawn was dotted with tiki torches. We ate pork and pineapple and drank tropical mocktails. It was a huge success but for one small glitch: Because it was a surprise party and because this was the ’80s, I was wearing zipper-covered jeans, a giant white men’s button-down, and a blue bandana in my hair, so I looked like I got lost on my way to a Madonna party. I called my parents to dig up some photos recently, but all they could find were pictures of my sister looking amazing as the host in a sarong she fashioned out of a robe.

(Note to theme-party planners: Make sure to tell everyone the dress code.)

When we were choosing the themes for this issue’s party section, I of course voted for a luau (see page 172). We also put together a Fourth of July bash, a backyard carnival and an Olympics brunch—with bagels topped in the colors of the Olympic rings, because that’s the sort of ridiculous thing you can do when you throw a theme party. We stopped short of providing dress-up ideas, but if you’re so inclined for a summer luau, you can buy these leis online for less than a dollar each. My birthday is in August, so I ordered a dozen, just in case.

You Asked...

Food Network stars answer your burning questions.

Beth McLaughlin via Instagram

Every time I make shrimp and grits, it’s a little bit different.

The one constant is Weisenberger Mill grits—they’re delicious and made here in Kentucky. I cook the grits with stock and finish them with cream.

Then I season them according to my mood. You can find one of my recipes at foodnetwork.com/ bakedgrits.

Guy, of all the burger joints you’ve been to, which is your favorite?

Nick Parks Quakertown, PA

Nick, that’s like asking, “What’s your favorite song?” It’s impossible to choose just one. A place is not just about the burger, it’s about the energy. I’d say Guy’s Burger Joint, but if I had to pick another spot, one of my faves is Hodad’s in San Diego—for a lot of reasons. We lost the owner, my buddy Mike Hardin, last year.

—Damaris Phillips

—Guy Fieri

Aarón, do you have a basic spice blend that you use to prepare steak?

Or do you prefer not to use any spices in order to bring out the full flavor of the beef?

Meg Martin Liverpool, NY

When it comes to steak, I don’t bother with spice blends.

Salt and pepper is all you need!

Michael, do you ever just crave something simple and ordinary—like a peanut butter sandwich or grilled cheese?

If so, what do you want?

Lisa Mednick San Jose, CA

I really like grilled Nutella and banana sandwiches. I can’t get enough of them!

—Michael Symon

—Aarón Sánchez

michael’s go-to sandwich: nutella and banana

Anne, what’s a quick and easy late-night snack?

Christina Hallberg Germantown, MD

Carbonara—pasta with pancetta, eggs and cheese—is a cinch. You can whip it together very quickly, and it really satisfies those latenight munchies.

Get my recipe at foodnetwork.com/ annescarbonara.

pasta salad with grilled asparagus, pimento and feta

tangy southern pulled pork sliders 1/4 cup smoked Spanish paprika 1/4 cup packed dark brown sugar 1 tablespoon garlic powder 1 tablespoon dry mustard powder 1 tablespoon onion powder

1 pound fusilli pasta Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 1 bunch medium asparagus (about 1 pound) Zest and juice of 1 lemon One 4-ounce jar sliced pimentos, drained and chopped into bite-size pieces 1 cup crumbled feta cheese (about 4 ounces) 3/4 cup chopped fresh dill

Kosher salt One 5- to 7-pound bone-in pork shoulder 1 cup apple cider vinegar 12 mini potato buns Coleslaw, for serving

Set an oven rack in the lowest position and preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.

Prepare a grill for medium-high heat.

Cook the pasta in well-salted boiling water according to the package directions for fully cooked (not al dente). Drain the pasta, rinse under cold water to stop the cooking and toss with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Set aside.

Meanwhile, snap the woody ends off the bottoms of the asparagus and toss in a bowl with 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and some pepper. Grill, turning occasionally, until charred and tender, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a Food Network CookingGreen Bamboo Cutting Board and cut into bite-size pieces.

Whisk together the lemon zest and juice, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, some pepper and the remaining 1/2 cup olive oil in a large bowl. Add the pasta, asparagus, pimentos, feta and dill, and toss to combine. Let stand 30 minutes at room temperature before serving in a serving bowl.

Yield: 6 to 8 servings Total Time: 1 hour

Combine the paprika, brown sugar, garlic powder, mustard powder, onion powder and 2 tablespoons salt in a small bowl. Evenly rub half the spice mixture over the pork in a large bowl. Set the remaining spice mixture aside.

Place the pork skin-side up in a large Food Network 5.5-qt Enameled Cast-Iron Dutch Oven or roasting pan. Roast, covered, until the meat is falling apart and easily pulls away from the bone, 4 to 5 hours. Let the pork rest, covered, for 30 minutes.

Shred the pork using 2 forks and mix with the juices in the bottom of the pot. Bring the cider vinegar to a simmer in a small pot over medium heat and add the reserved spice mixture. Simmer until the sugar is dissolved, about 1 minute, then pour over the pork. Mix well to combine. Serve the warm pulled pork on the buns with the coleslaw on a serving tray.

Yield: 8 to 10 servings Active Time: 20 minutes Total Time: 5 hours 45 minutes (includes resting time)

bourbon and peach cobbler 12 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for the baking dish Two 16-ounce bags frozen sliced peaches (about 6 cups) 2 1/4 cups plus 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour 2/3 cup plus 1/2 cup sugar 8 tablespoons bourbon 1 1/2 teaspoons fine salt 1 tablespoon baking powder 3/4 cup half-and-half 1 large egg Vanilla ice cream, for serving Fresh mint sprigs, for serving Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Butter the bottom and sides of a 9x13" baking dish.

Use the Food Network 5-pc. Magnetic Measuring Spoon Set to measure and a spoon to combine the 1 tablespoon flour, 2/3 cup sugar, 4 tablespoons bourbon, 1/2 teaspoon salt and peaches in a medium bowl. Spread the mixture evenly in the bottom of the baking dish.

The Grandma Carmen

Georgia Peach Tea

The Arnold Palmer

Mint Julep Tea

A splash of OJ + an orange wedge

A little peach nectar + a few peach slices

Equal parts sweet tea + lemonade

A touch of bourbon + a few sprigs of mint

Whisk together the remaining 2 1/4 cups flour, 1/2 cup sugar and 1 teaspoon salt with the baking powder. Melt the butter in a medium bowl in the microwave, then cool slightly. Mix in the half-and-half, egg and remaining 4 tablespoons bourbon. Stir the butter mixture into the dry mixture and whisk until smooth. Drop tablespoon-size dollops of the batter over the peaches evenly, leaving some space between.

Bake until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted into the cake part comes out clean, about 50 minutes. Serve the cobbler warm with vanilla ice cream and fresh mint sprigs in a bowl.

Yield: 6 to 8 servings Total Time: 1 hour 15 minutes

A new size!

Bigger is not necessarily better in the world of kitchen appliances: In 1919, KitchenAid’s first stand mixer came with a huge 10-quart bowl (twice the size of the one on a tilt-head model today). Now, almost 100 years later, the company is going mini with a new 3.5-quart mixer (far right).

It takes up 20 percent less counter space and is more than six pounds lighter than the 5-quart model. The best news for culinary nerds: The engine is just as powerful. $400; kitchenaid.com

SUGAR,, SUGAR These three business owners are giving cotton candy a new spin.

Yasmeen Tadia Sugaire, Dallas Yasmeen Tadia’s cotton candy business grew thanks to her 6-year-old son, Zain: She was selling mini cotton candy ”Fluffpops” at local catered events, but he wanted a big, carnival-size portion. The result: A new line of 8-inch-tall puffs called Sugaire, made from flavored organic sugar. She sells the candy at events and at makeyourlifesweeter.com.

“I love the faces kids make when they see it,” she says.

CloË Lane Bon Puf, Los Angeles At 18, Cloë Lane got a lifechanging Christmas gift: a cotton candy machine from her parents. She played around with it for a few months, adding Pop Rocks and other toppings, then after graduation started serving her creations at parties. Now 22, Cloë has expanded her line to more than a dozen flavors and sells them at big events like the Coachella music festival in California. This summer, she’s introducing packaged puffs at bonpuf.com— toppings included.

Sam O’Hare When you run a business in Orlando, you’re smart to pick a theme—it’s a city of theme parks, after all. Sam O’Hare went with a vintage airline concept when she quit her acting career and launched a cotton candy company, Sky Candy, in 2014 (skycandyorlando.com). She sells the treats from a retro bar cart at local candy stores and also caters events, with servers dressed as retro flight attendants and pilots. “We get e-mails from customers asking if we sell the costumes!”

Star Kitchen PHOTOGRAPHS BY

DAVID A. LAND

As a longtime New Yorker, Donatella Arpaia always longed for the impossible: a big home kitchen. So when the restaurateur and frequent Food Network judge bought a Connecticut weekend house with her husband, Allan, a heart surgeon, she built giant kitchens—inside and out: “Our life here is outdoors,” says Donatella.

“I’m always the one cooking, and I wanted to enjoy it.” Her first priority was to put in a pizza oven (a hit with her 4-year-old son, Alessandro) and to install professionalgrade Lynx appliances, including stovetops, sinks and an integrated trash can.

Having a complete set-up outside allows her to entertain without frequent trips in and out of the house. She has enough to worry about when the couple hosts a party, especially when Allan is in charge of the guest list. “It starts off small,” she says, “and then my husband casually invites an extra 50 people!”

Tile style Donatella picked neutral glass backsplash tiles that blend in with the surrounding stone.

She loves how easy they are to clean.

HAIR AND MAKEUP: MARET ASARO.

Donatella Arpaia’s dream kitchen is right in her backyard.

Set in stone The “Donatella” engraving was a surprise from her husband. She couldn’t figure out why Allan had asked for a slab of stone above the oven, but she found out when he revealed that he had the mason chisel her name into it.

Bar station Allan’s favorite part of the kitchen is the bar and cocktail area, which includes an ice machine and wine fridge. Donatella jokingly refers to the cardiothoracic expert as the “doctor of mixology.”

Pizza for all Donatella’s son, Alessandro, loves sitting on the granite counter and prepping pies with his mom before she puts them into her wood-burning oven. “He makes a mess and ends up covered in flour,” Donatella says.

Italian accents Donatella and Allan wanted the space to feel like a villa on Lake Como, where they like to vacation, so they incorporated a pergola and columns into the bluestone patio.

“We fell in love with the view,” she says of the Candlewood Lake landscape. “This is where we’re going to grow old together.”

There aren’t many ways to improve on a cold slice of watermelon at a summer cookout, but we think we’ve found one: Dip it in Pop Rocks.

Just spread Pop Rocks candies (we used green-apple flavor) in a shallow dish and press an edge of the watermelon in the candy.

Make Brunch THIS SUMMER,

plan a brunch that puts fresh flavor in the spotlight.

With a “make-yourown” bagel bar, you’re free to enjoy your guests, too. Follow these tips and add your own flair for a brunch that’s simply delicious.

SERVE SIMPLE AND WHOLESOME

A FEAST FOR THE EYES

Try a delicious twist on classic fare with a bagel spread that delivers more flavor with less than half the ingredients of common bagel spreads.

Serve Arla Original Cream Cheese, loved for its distinct “farm to fridge” fresh taste. Made from only four simple ingredients—cream, milk, cheese culture and salt—Arla Original Cream Cheese is a naturally delicious spread that you’ll feel good about serving.

Let guests sample a number of Arla Cream Cheese varieties—from Arla Herbs & Spices or Arla Peppercorn to Arla Blueberry. Keep sides simple but colorful. Ripe blueberries, freshly sliced strawberries, kiwi slivers, or a dash of cinnamon or brown sugar enhance the fresh flavor of Arla Cream Cheese.

For savory options, offer bowls brimming with red and yellow peppers, sliced tomatoes and red onions, chopped scallions, and crushed nuts.

Offer a wide range of bagels— from sweet cinnamon raisin to savory everything—to satisfy any palate.

And for a lighter alternative, include bagel crisps or crackers.

LEVI BROWN

This is not your grandma’s gelatin mold: Each slice of this mod version has a blue star suspended in it. To make the flag dessert, all you need is a small star cookie cutter—and lots of gelatin. The project is as easy as boiling water (seriously!), but it takes time. Make sure you start early, or better yet, make it a day or two ahead. Turn the page for the how-to.

HOW TO Make the Stars-and-Stripes Gelatin

1

2

Make the blue stars: Lightly coat a 9-by-13-inch pan with cooking spray.

Stir the blue gelatin, unflavored gelatin and 4 cups boiling water in a large bowl until dissolved. Pour into the pan.

Refrigerate until firm, at least 3 hours.

3

4

Make the first red layer: Sprinkle 1 packet unflavored gelatin over ¼ cup cold water in a bowl; let stand 1 minute. Add 1 cup boiling water and 1 box red gelatin. Stir to dissolve, pour into the square pan and refrigerate until just set, 15 minutes.

5

Meanwhile, make the white gelatin: Sprinkle the unflavored gelatin over ½ cup cold water in a bowl; let stand 1 minute. Combine the condensed milk and 1 cup boiling water in another bowl; stir in the gelatin. Stir in the remaining ½ cup boiling water. Let cool 15 minutes.

6

Remove the pan of red gelatin from the refrigerator. It should be just set but not completely firm so the layers will stick to each other. Pour 1 cup of the white gelatin onto the red layer. (Keep the remaining white gelatin at room temperature.)

84

Loosen the edges of the blue gelatin with a knife and turn out onto a cutting board.

Cut out about 36 stars using a 2-inch star cutter. Refrigerate the stars until needed.

Lightly coat a 9-inch-square, 2¼-inchdeep pan with cooking spray.

FOOD NETWORK MAGAZINE

●

JULY/AUGUST 2016

Immediately arrange the blue stars in the liquid white gelatin in 3 evenly spaced rows, pressing the stars against each other and leaving a 1-inch gap between the rows. Carefully transfer to the refrigerator and chill until the white layer is just set, about 15 minutes.

Fun Cooking

7 Meanwhile, make another red layer (repeat Step 3). Let the red gelatin cool, stirring occasionally, 15 minutes. Gently pour over the back of a spoon into the pan (this prevents damage to the layer below).

Refrigerate until just set, 15 minutes.

9

8 Add another white layer: Stir the remaining white gelatin until smooth.

Gently pour 1 cup of the white gelatin over the back of a spoon onto the red layer; refrigerate until just set, about 15 minutes.

10

Meanwhile, make the third red layer (repeat Step 3). Let the gelatin cool, stirring occasionally, 15 minutes. Gently pour over the back of a spoon onto the white layer. Refrigerate until just set, 15 minutes.

Add the last white layer: Stir the remaining white gelatin until smooth. Pour over a spoon onto the red layer; chill until just set, 15 minutes. Make the final red layer (repeat Step 3); let cool, stirring occasionally, 15 minutes, then pour over a spoon onto the white layer. Chill until completely set.

11

12

Loosen the edges of the gelatin with a knife and turn out onto a parchment-lined baking sheet; invert right-side up onto a cutting board. Trim the two opposite sides so the stars are visible.

Slice between each row of stars to create 3 rectangles (use the stars to gauge where to cut). Cut each rectangle into pieces.

• Look for grape bunches with green, pliable stems and plump berries.

• Do you see a powdery-white coating on the grapes? hat’s good! Bloom is a naturally occurring substance that protects grapes from moisture loss and decay.

• Green, red or black…which color should you choose? Try them all to experience diferent flavors and textures.

Chicken and California Grape Salad Directions (Makes 6 servings)

Storing Grapes Grapes keep for up to two weeks when stored and handled properly. Follow a few simple steps and you’ll be able to enjoy every grape on the bunch.

• Grapes should always be refrigerated to maximize shelf life.

In a small bowl, mix the yogurt, olive oil, lime juice, salt and black pepper to taste; reserve. In a medium bowl mix the chicken, onion, celery and chili; add in the dressing and gently mix in the grapes, avocado and cilantro.

Serving suggestion: Serve salad on a bed of greens, with a corn tostada, or as an arepa illing.

• Store grapes unwashed and dry; rinse just before eating or adding to a recipe.

• Like most berries, grapes tend to absorb odors. Try to avoid storing them next to things like green onions or leeks.

CALLING THE SHOTS While we were making the vodka sauce on page 104, Claudia Sidoti, our test kitchen director, and I got into a debate: We couldn’t agree on when to add the alcohol. Claudia wanted to add it early to let the flavors develop; I like to add a splash toward the end. I made the sauce this way when my daughter was young: I’d serve her first, then add the vodka for the grown-ups. We went with Claudia’s method (this time!), and most of the

TOP THIS! We retested the chicken tacos on page 94 several times to get the toppings right.

One of my favorite butcher’s cuts is tri-tip steak. It comes from the bottom sirloin and it’s fairly lean, but the tapered triangular shape is what makes it special: The narrow end cooks faster than the rest, which means you get two degrees of doneness in the same piece of meat—great for eaters with different preferences.

watermelon salad into a topping and served avocado on the side.

The fruit chunks were too big and the avocado looked boring by itself.

Whenever we test a recipe that calls for grilling, we try to make the most of the grill while it’s hot—which is how we ended up grilling plums to go with the chicken on page 101. Try grilling pineapple, peaches, mango, grapefruit or plantains as a side dish for a cookout. Just remove any pits and brush the fruit with oil so the caramelized sugar doesn’t stick to the grates.

Weekend Cooking Few people are more comfortable around fish than Katie Lee—

FOOD STYLING: CHRISTINE ALBANO; PROP STYLING: PAMELA DUNCAN SILVER.

and not just because she hosts Cooking Channel’s Beach Bites. Thirteen years ago, Katie moved to Sag Harbor, NY, and landed her first job out of college as a fishmonger. It was an unlikely choice for a journalism grad from Ohio’s Miami University, but Katie has always loved seafood, so she jumped at the chance to learn more about it. “I think the owners hired me because they thought it would be funny, that I wouldn’t last two weeks,” she says. “But I stuck around from Memorial Day through Labor Day.” The job wasn’t always easy, but Katie learned a ton about cleaning, filleting and cooking fish—and knowing when it’s fresh. These days, she puts her seafood smarts to work when she’s browsing local shops like The Lobster Place in New York City and Schmidt’s Deli & Seafood Market in Southampton, NY. “I stop by all the time, just to check out what’s come in that day,” she says. Here are a few of Katie’s favorite fish—and recipes for three great summer dinners.

KATIE’S SEAFOOD-SHOPPING TIPS • Give the fish a sniff. It should smell like the ocean—but not overly fishy.

• Fillets should glisten as if they just came out of the water.

• The bloodline (a strip of darker, blood-rich muscle that runs through the center of some species like swordfish) should be bright red, not brown.

• Whole fish should have clear eyes and their scales should be intact.

• Don’t forget the freezer section! Frozen fish can often be fresher and more affordable than what you’ll find at a grocery-store seafood counter.

GRILLED TUNA WITH ROMESCO SAUCE ACTIVE: 25 min l TOTAL: 25 min l SERVES: 4 to 6

FOR THE ROMESCO SAUCE 2 jarred roasted red peppers ½ cup almonds 1 slice bread 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar 1 tablespoon honey 1 teaspoon smoked paprika ½ cup extra-virgin olive oil Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper FOR THE FISH 1½ pounds very fresh tuna steaks (3 to 4 steaks; about 1 inch thick) 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

1. Make the romesco sauce: In a food processor, combine the red peppers, almonds, bread, vinegar, honey and smoked paprika. Pulse to combine.

With the motor running, add the olive oil and puree until combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

2. Make the fish: Preheat an outdoor grill or a grill pan to medium high. Drizzle the tuna with the olive oil and generously season with salt and pepper on both sides. Grill for about 2 minutes on each side. Remove from the grill, tent with foil and let stand for a few minutes. Thinly slice the tuna and serve with the romesco sauce.

SWORDFISH KEBABS WITH MINT PESTO 1¼ pounds swordfish steak, cut into 1-inch cubes (bloodline removed) ¼ cup sliced almonds 1 large clove garlic, smashed 1 cup packed fresh mint ¼ cup packed fresh flat-leaf parsley Grated zest of 1 lemon, plus wedges for serving 5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper Pinch of red pepper flakes (optional) 1. Put the fish cubes in a bowl. Soak eight 8-inch wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes.

2. Meanwhile, make the pesto: Put the almonds and garlic in a food processor and

pulse until finely chopped. Add the mint, parsley and lemon zest and pulse until finely ground. Transfer the mixture to a small bowl and whisk in the olive oil; loosen with 1 tablespoon water, if needed. Season the pesto with salt, pepper and the red pepper flakes, if using. Pour about one-third of the pesto over the swordfish and toss to evenly coat. Reserve the remaining pesto for serving. Refrigerate the swordfish for at least 30 minutes and up to 4 hours.

3. Preheat a grill to medium high. Skewer 3 or 4 chunks of swordfish on each skewer.

Grill, turning once, until just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Drizzle the skewers with the reserved pesto and serve with lemon wedges.

COLA BARBECUE RIBS ACTIVE: 1 hr 20 min l TOTAL: 2 hr 10 min SERVES: 8 to 10

1 20-ounce bottle cola 2 cups ketchup ⅔ cup apple cider vinegar ⅓ cup lightly packed dark brown sugar ⅓ cup dijon mustard 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce ¾ teaspoon cayenne pepper 2 tablespoons sweet paprika Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper 5 racks baby back ribs (8 to 10 pounds total), membranes removed Vegetable oil, for the grill 1. Make the barbecue sauce: Bring the cola to a boil in a medium saucepan over high heat. Cook until reduced by about half, about 5 minutes. Add the ketchup, vinegar, brown sugar, mustard, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, cayenne and 2 teaspoons paprika. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, 8 to 10 minutes.

Remove from the heat and let cool slightly.

2. Preheat a grill to medium and prepare for indirect grilling: On a charcoal grill, bank the coals to one side; on a gas grill, turn of half the burners. Combine 2 tablespoons salt, 1 tablespoon black pepper and the remaining 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon paprika in a bowl. Rub the salt mixture all over the ribs. Remove 1 cup of the barbecue sauce to a small bowl; brush over the ribs.

3. Wrap each rack of ribs separately in foil.

Put the racks, overlapping if necessary, on the cooler side of the grill (indirect heat). Cover and cook, flipping the ribs after 30 minutes, until just tender and beginning to pull away from the bones, about 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes.

4. Remove the ribs from the grill and carefully unwrap; pour any juices into the pan with the remaining barbecue sauce. Bring the sauce to a simmer over medium heat and cook until thickened, 5 to 7 minutes.

5. Increase the grill heat to medium high.

Brush the ribs with some sauce from the pan and grill over direct heat, flipping every 5 minutes, until glossy and crisp at the edges, about 20 minutes. Transfer the ribs to a large cutting board and let rest 5 minutes.

Cut the ribs between the bones and serve with the remaining barbecue sauce.

If you’re making the ribs on a charcoal grill, you’ll need 3 to 4 pounds of charcoal. Add several new briquettes to the coals every 30 minutes to maintain the heat.

1. Preheat a grill to medium. Put the peppercorns and coriander seeds in a small plastic bag and crush with a mallet or small skillet. Transfer to a bowl and add the mustard seeds, paprika and dill seeds. Rub the beef with the vegetable oil and season with kosher salt.

Rub the pepper mixture all over the beef; set aside.

2. Make the jam: Cook the bacon in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until browned and crisp, about 7 minutes. Transfer the bacon to a plate, reserving 2 tablespoons drippings in the skillet. Add the onions to the skillet, season with kosher salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened, about 5 minutes.

Add the beer, vinegar and brown sugar; bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are very soft and the liquid is absorbed, about 30 minutes. Stir in the bacon and thyme; remove from the heat and set aside.

3. Meanwhile, brush the grill grates with vegetable oil. Grill the beef, turning occasionally, until well marked, about 15 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium low, cover the grill and continue cooking, turning the beef occasionally, until a thermometer inserted into the center registers 125˚, about 15 more minutes for medium rare. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest, 10 minutes.

4. Slice the beef, sprinkle with flaky salt and serve with the bacon-onion jam.

Dream Ina Garten celebrates the Fourth with a red, white and blue semifreddo.

PHOTOGRAPH BY

There is almost no combination of flavors that I like for dessert more than raspberries and cream. Over the years, I’ve devised so many recipes using those ingredients: Mixed Berry Pavlova, Raspberry Cheesecake, Coeur à la Crème with Raspberry Sauce. But this Vanilla Semifreddo with Raspberry Sauce may be my favorite of all. The flavors are really balanced—the creamy ice-cold vanilla mousse (semifreddo means “half cold” in Italian) works perfectly with the sweet framboise-spiked raspberry sauce and the fresh berries. And it’s great for a party because I can make everything in advance and simply take the semifreddo out of the freezer when it’s time to serve dessert.

For the Fourth of July this year, I’m doing a red, white and blue twist on my traditional semifreddo. First, I’ll prepare the vanilla semifreddo in a loaf pan. (You can freeze it for up to a month!)

Then, I’ll make the quick raspberry sauce about a week in advance. When I’m ready to serve, I’ll spoon a puddle of raspberry sauce onto each plate, put a slice of semifreddo on top and I’ll top each slice with fresh blueberries. Now, that’s a dessert worth celebrating!

doubled in volume and warm to the touch.

Of the heat, beat the mixture for 1 minute.

3. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, add the reserved egg whites, the remaining ¼ cup of sugar and the cream of tartar and beat on high speed until the whites form firm but not dry peaks. Fold the egg whites into the egg mixture with a rubber spatula.

4. Without washing the mixer or whisk, pour the heavy cream, vanilla liqueur (if using) and vanilla into the bowl and beat on high speed until it forms soft peaks. Fold the whipped cream carefully but thoroughly into the egg mixture. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan, cover with plastic wrap, and freeze for at least 4 hours.

5. To unmold, dip the pan in a bowl of hot tap water for 8 to 10 seconds and turn the semifreddo upside down onto a rectangular serving plate. Peel of the plastic wrap.

(You can cover and refreeze the semifreddo for a few hours on the serving plate.) Pour several tablespoons of raspberry sauce on each dessert plate, cut 1-inch-thick slices of the semifreddo and place them in the center of the sauce. Sprinkle each serving with blueberries and serve immediately.

Form each batch into a 14-inch log, wrap in plastic wrap and freeze until firm, about 30 minutes. Slice the logs into ¼-inch-thick rounds and bake as directed; let cool. To assemble, layer the cookies with whipped cream on a platter, alternating colors.

Refrigerate up to 2 hours so the cookies soften (but don’t bleed). Sprinkle with red sanding sugar.

The Goods Red Striped Paper Straws

1½ cups yellow mustard 8 to 10 sprigs thyme 5½ pounds skin-on, bone-in chicken pieces (breasts halved crosswise) 1 small onion, halved and sliced root to tip Vegetable or peanut oil, for deep-frying 5½ cups cake flour 2 tablespoons baking powder 1 tablespoon paprika 1 tablespoon dried dill ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper 1. Whisk the mustard and 2 cups water in a large bowl or wide pot until smooth; add the thyme sprigs. Add the chicken and onion, turning to coat well. Firmly press down so the chicken is just covered in the marinade.

Cover and refrigerate 2 to 4 hours.

2. Fill two 12-inch cast-iron skillets with about 2½ inches oil each. Heat over medium heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350˚.

3. While the oil heats, make the breading: Put 3 cups flour in a large bowl. Remove ⅓ cup of the chicken marinade and add to the flour; stir until clumpy. Whisk in the remaining 2½ cups flour, the baking powder, paprika, dill, cayenne, 1 tablespoon salt and 2 teaspoons black pepper. Working with a few pieces at a time, remove the chicken and onion from the marinade, letting the excess drip of, and dredge in the flour mixture, pressing with your hands to coat. Transfer to a rack set over a rimmed baking sheet.

4. Carefully add about 5 pieces chicken to each skillet, then adjust the heat to keep the oil temperature between 300˚ and 325˚. Fry, turning the chicken occasionally, until golden and crisp on the outside and no longer pink inside, 15 to 16 minutes. (A thermometer inserted into the chicken should register 160˚ for breasts and 170˚ for legs and thighs.)

Remove with tongs and transfer to a clean rack set over a rimmed baking sheet; season with salt. Return the oil to 350˚ and fry the remaining chicken. Fry the onion 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Transfer the chicken and onion to a platter.

tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus more for the pan 10 graham cracker sheets, broken in half 1 1½-quart carton mango ice cream 1 1½-quart carton black raspberry ice cream 1 1½-quart carton strawberry ice cream ½ 1½-quart carton vanilla ice cream 1½ cups heavy cream 1 to 2 tablespoons confectioners’ sugar 1. Butter the sides of an 8-inch springform pan. Cut a 26-by-7-inch piece of parchment paper and press the parchment strip around the inside of the pan so it extends above the rim (this will hold the cake in place as you build it up). Lock the springform ring to secure the paper to the base of the pan.

2. Pulse the graham crackers in a food processor until finely ground. Add the melted butter and pulse until combined.

Press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan and freeze until firm, about 10 minutes.

3. Meanwhile, cut the carton of mango ice cream in half with a serrated knife. Return one half to the freezer and let the other half sit at room temperature, 5 minutes. Transfer to a stand mixer and beat with the paddle attachment on medium speed until smooth and spreadable but not melted. Spread the mango ice cream evenly onto the crust with a small offset spatula. Freeze until firm, 30 minutes to 1 hour.

4. Repeat Step 3 with the black raspberry ice cream (half the carton) and freeze.

(Rinse out the mixer bowl between each flavor.) When firm, repeat with strawberry ice cream. When firm, beat all of the vanilla ice cream and spread on top; freeze.

5. Repeat the layers with the remaining mango, black raspberry and strawberry ice cream, making sure each layer is firm before adding the next. Freeze the cake until completely firm, at least 1 hour.

6. Remove the springform ring and parchment. Beat the heavy cream with the confectioners’ sugar in a large bowl with a mixer until stiff peaks form. Spread on top of the cake and return to the freezer until firm, about 10 minutes.

Yellowstone appeals to all types of travelers. It’s America’s oldest national park (a plus for history buffs); it has the largest concentration of mammals in the contiguous US (great for animal lovers); and laid-back visitors can just watch Old Faithful spout every 35 to 120 minutes.

There are great bites for all outside the five entrance gates, especially in West Yellowstone, MT, and Cody, WY.

Of the Spanish classics on the menu, the chorizo al infierno is the crowd-pleaser. You get to flambé imported sausage at your table over a pig-shaped terra-cotta pot. 311 North Canyon St.; 406-646-9245

CASSIE’S SUPPER CLUB Cody, WY If you want some two-step with your T-bone, this is the place to get it: The bar meets restaurant meets dance hall has been pairing steaks with honky-tonk music since the early 1940s. Try to tackle the legendary 36-ounce bone-in porterhouse; it’s dry-aged and hand-cut.

You’ll find top-notch food south of the Grand Canyon in the towns of Tusayan and Williams, but you can also eat a memorable meal right inside the park—and even on the canyon floor.

The decor is old-school Grand Canyon glamour (murals of native tribes, 1930s-style Southwestern tableware), and the food is a modern take on Arizona classics, including pancakes with prickly pear syrup and the famed salmon tostada.

Yosemite’s most famous landmarks are towering giants, like Yosemite Falls (one of North America’s tallest waterfalls), Half Dome (an 8,800-foot granite formation) and the millennia-old sequoia trees. It’s a lot to take in—but you can fuel up for the sightseeing with great lunches and dinners near the West and East gates.

MAJESTIC YOSEMITE DINING ROOM Yosemite National Park, CA The dining room at the Majestic, long known as the Ahwahnee, is how the rich and famous (John F. Kennedy, Judy Garland, Brad Pitt) do meals in Yosemite: The Sunday brunch buffet in the log lodge is $49 a person, but that buys you carved-to-order prime rib and fresh oysters—along with a view of Half Dome.

Q: How do I get the smell of garlic off my hands after cooking?

Q: Can you caramelize onions and freeze them?

Cheryl Rorick Sullivan (@momofours) via Instagram

A: Yes—and that’s a smart idea! Caramelize a big batch (see recipe below), then freeze in ice cube trays or a plastic wrap–lined muffin tin until solid; transfer to a resealable plastic bag and freeze up to three months. Thaw in the microwave, stirring occasionally, then use on sausages, burgers, pizza or pasta.

Q: Is there a way to save a barbecue sauce that’s too sweet? Janice Phelps, Evansville, IN A: You just need to offset the sweetness: Add vinegar or lemon juice for tartness; some ancho chile powder, smoked paprika or finely chopped chipotle in adobo for smokiness; or coffee, grated dark chocolate or some IPA for bitterness. Just note that if you’re adding a liquid ingredient, you might need to cook the sauce a little to thicken it.
