On my goddaughter’s first trip to visit me in Paris, she took her notebook and pen outside on the balcony and sat wrapped in a blanket drawing the Eiffel Tower and “taking some alone time.” It marked the moment that I realized her mother—my best friend since pastry school—and I had become old and perhaps uncool to the next generation, as we sat inside drinking Champagne and eating these olives while talking about things no six-year-old finds interesting. It’s a treasured memory memorialized in the drawing on a Post-it that I straight-up stole and framed . . . sorry, Peri.Reprinted with permission from À Table by Rebekah Peppler (Chronicle Books, 2021).

Warm Gingerbread Cake With Crème Anglaise Recipe on Food52In my family, we get together with a larger group in the days around Christmas. But on Christmas Day, it’s a small group. We stay in pajamas all day, and my mom and I cook special food for everyone. So when I think of the holidays, I think of two sort of distinctions of recipe: Christmas Eve recipes (go-tos that can feed a crowd), and Christmas Day recipes (extra special, comforting recipes). This is a super homey, easy recipe that would be perfect for any sort of gathering with those you love this holiday season. The deeply spiced cake boasts plenty of molasses flavor. It’s fluffy in texture, and served warm. While it’s delectable all on it’s own, my favorite way to accompany it is with a thick vanilla bean custard sauce. This is insanely delicious if you make the custard sauce fresh, so you can spoon it over the cake while it’s warm. It’s also delicious with chilled custard sauce as a hot/cold contrast with the soft cake, which is more make-ahead friendly, too! To make this even easier, serve with ice cream instead.

Red Snapper Fillets in Creole Court Bouillon From Dr. Jessica B. Harris Recipe on Food52'This is a variation on the redfish court bouillon that is traditionally served in many of the Black Creole homes of New Orleans at Christmastime. Here, though, instead of the entire baked fish, snapper fillets are poached in the Creole court bouillon, which is more like a Creole sauce than like the classic French court bouillon poaching liquid. You may wish to serve this as a main dish, or as an alternative main dish along the more traditional roasts that usually appear on the New Year table.'Excerpted with permissions from A Kwanzaa Keepsake: Celebrating the Holiday with New Traditions and Feasts by Dr. Jessica B. Harris, Simon & Schuster, 1998.
