Roasted Artichokes (trim and drop in lemon water to prevent oxidizing, then toss in seasoned oil), Stir-Fried Asparagus with Shiitake Mushrooms (start in a hot pan and stir only occasionally for optimum char and caramelization), Broccoli with Lemon-Oregano Dressing (nuke it so it steams from the inside out), Quick Pickles (ready after 3 hours in the fridge), Braised Hearty Greens (our simple technique cuts out the parcooking step), Grilled Caesar Salad (a favorite salad meets fire, with better than you can imagine results); and, Twice-Baked Sweet Potatoes (adding an egg to the mashed flesh gives the potatoes structure and velvety smoothness).
