Date shakes have been served at this popular pit stop since the 1920s. The recipe is simple: Fresh Medjool dates that are boiled then smashed and blended with vanilla ice cream.

The Secret Ingredient (Chamomile): Chamomile Pork Chops with Lemon
Chamomile is an easy, inexpensive, and subtly sophisticated and unexpected ingredient in the simple breading for a seared slice of pork loin. This dish, served with sunny lemon and a salad of pea shoots and herbs, is simple but different, inexpensive but special.

Meltaways were one of the first cookies I made when I began my professional baking career. They're incredibly easy and their delicate, crumbly texture makes them terribly addictive. In this version, I made them with lime zest. But if you'd prefer another flavor—like lemon, vanilla bean or even black pepper—go for it.

Hot Dog of the Week: Red Snapper
In this week's edition of Hot Dog of the Week, we get a taste of Maine's famous red snappers, which are made with natural casing beef and pork franks and a healthy dose of FD&C Red #40. Why red?

Parsley: It's More Than Just a Garnish
Parsley's got personality—namely, a clean bright flavor and a lettuce-like crunch. So how about we start treating it like what it is: an herb. It's one of few herbs you can find fresh at any time of year in most supermarkets. There are two types: flat leaf (also called Italian parsley) and curly leaf. In a pinch, either is fine, but note the differences between them.
