Read More Make your dumplings more crispy with this easy trick. Max Falkowitz The owner of New York City’s oldest continuously running Chinese restaurant walks us through two staples of the famed dim sum parlor. Wilson Tang as told to Joe Sevier The owner of Xi’an Famous Foods talks us through his family traditions and what he plans to eat this year. Joe Sevier Use everyday vegetables to color-code your dumplings (or to make a rainbow for the 'gram.) Max Falkowitz The author of Chinese Soul Food tells us how she’s celebrating her favorite holiday of the year. Tiffany Hopkins Like lemony risotto and tandoori-style cauliflower. Like lemony baked salmon and strawberry shortcake roll. Like spicy carrot rigatoni and weeknight-fancy ravioli with peas. Every salad should have pita chips. We’ve got baked cheddar and leek pasta, maple-mustard sheet-pan salmon, and a strawberry shortcake roll. For Derby Day indulgence or a post-Thanksgiving lunch, this Kentucky favorite can’t be beat. This lasagna soup delivers rich, baked-pasta flavor without an oven. Made with Italian sausage and spinach, it’s a fast, weeknight-friendly take on the classic.
