• Make the crepes: In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the flour and salt. In a small bowl, whisk together the yogurt and 3/4 cup lukewarm water, then whisk the liquid into the flour in four additions, until the batter is smooth.
• Heat an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Spray with cooking spray or brush with a thin film of oil. Pour 1/4 cup of batter into the skillet and immediately tilt it to make the batter evenly cover the bottom of the skillet. Cook until bubbles appear in the center of the crepe, about 2 minutes; flip with a spatula, and cook briefly on the other side, about 30 seconds. Flip the crepe onto a plate and cover it with a clean cloth to keep it warm, and repeat with the rest of the crepe batter.
• Add the fillings: place each crepe on a plate, slather on 2 tablespoons tahini, add a drizzle of honey, a dollop of greek yogurt, and a generous sprinkle of pomegranate seeds and chopped pistachios. Roll and serve.

• Bring 3/4 cup water to a boil, then let it rest off heat for 1 minute to slightly cool. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine the tapioca starch, millet flour, rice flour, and xanthan gum. Stir in the just-boiled water to create a crumbly, moist mixture.
  
• Using your hands, work in up to 2 tablespoons cold water until a cohesive, smooth, but still somewhat wet dough forms. Put the dough into a ziplock plastic bag, squeeze out all of the air, and close.
  
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and sprinkle the parchment with sweet rice flour.
• Cut the dough into 4 equal portions. Keeping 3 portions sealed in the plastic bag to stay moist, roll 1 portion of the dough into a rope about 1 inch thick, then cut it crosswise into 8 equal pieces.
  
• Dust the cut ends with sweet rice flour to prevent sticking. Pat each piece into a small disk. Dust your work surface with sweet rice flour to prevent sticking. With a rolling pin, roll out each disk into a very thin round 4 inches in diameter, dusting the rolling pin along the way.
• Place about 2 teaspoons of filling in the center of each dough round. Fold the dough over the filling into a half-moon shape and pleat the edges together to close. If the wrapper is too dry to seal, dip a finger in water and lightly wet the edges before sealing. Place the pot stickers on the prepared baking sheet.
  
• Repeat, one at a time, with the remaining three dough portions and the filling.
• Lightly coat a large skillet (preferably nonstick) with oil and warm over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Working in batches, add the pot stickers in one layer to cover the skillet surface. Very carefully, add 1/3 cup water and cover immediately to avoid oil splatter. Lower the heat and simmer 6 to 8 minutes. When the pot stickers begin to sizzle, partially uncover the skillet. When the frying begins to sound like rain, remove the lid. Fry the bottoms until crispy and brown. Transfer to a platter, browned sides up, and cover to keep warm until all of the pot stickers are fried. Serve with your dipping sauce of choice.
  

• In a large bowl, toss the cabbage with 1/2 teaspoon salt and let rest for 15 minutes. Drain in a fine-mesh strainer, rinse with water, and drain again. Squeeze the cabbage to remove more moisture.
• In a medium bowl, stir together the cabbage, garlic, ginger, green onions, pork, and shrimp and lightly mash so the ingredients start to form a filling.
• In a small bowl, stir together 1/4 teaspoon salt, the sugar, pepper, soy sauce, sake, and sesame oil and pour over the cabbage mixture. Stir and fold the mixture until the pork is no longer in large chunks. Briskly stir to blend into a cohesive, thick mixture. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest at room temperature for 30 minutes before using to allow the flavors to develop.

GYOZA DIPPING SAUCE

• MAKES ABOUT 1/2 CUP In a small bowl, stir together 5 tablespoons gluten-free soy sauce, 2-1/2tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar, and 1/2 to 1 teaspoon chili oil. Serve with a small side of Japanese hot mustard or Colman’s mustard.

• In a small bowl, toss the zucchini with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Set aside for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a food processor, whirl the kimchi until finely chopped, pausing to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed. Transfer to a mesh strainer and firmly press with a spatula to remove additional liquid. Place the drained kimchi into a bowl.
• Drain the zucchini in a mesh strainer, rinse with water, and drain again. Transfer the zucchini to a linen or cotton (not terry cloth) kitchen towel and wring the zucchini in the towel to remove any excess moisture. Add the zucchini to the bowl with the kimchi.
• Squeeze the tofu in the same kitchen towel over the sink to remove excess moisture. Add the now-crumbled tofu to the kimchi mixture, using the dull edge of a knife or a dough scraper to remove the tofu from the towel, if needed. Add the green onions and garlic and stir to combine. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt, the pepper, sugar, and sesame oil and mix well. Taste and adjust the seasonings as desired. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest at room temperature for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to develop.

MANDU DIPPING SAUCE

• MAKES ABOUT 1/2 CUP In a small bowl, stir together 1/4 cup gluten-free soy sauce, 3 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar, 2 tablespoons water, 1 teaspoon sugar, 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil, and any of these optional additions: 2 teaspoons finely minced garlic; 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds; 1 small green onion, white and green parts, thinly sliced; and 1/2 Fresno or jalapeño chile, thinly sliced. Let the sauce rest at room temperature for 1 hour to allow the flavors to develop.

• Place the mushrooms in a small bowl, pour the warm water over them, and let sit until softened, at least 30 minutes. Transfer the mushrooms to a cutting board, reserving the soaking liquid. Discard the mushroom stems and chop the caps.
• Put the spinach in a large heatproof bowl, pour boiling water over the spinach, and let the leaves wilt for 30 seconds. Drain, rinse with cold water, drain again, then squeeze out any excess moisture with your hands.
• In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup of the reserved mushroom soaking liquid, the salt, white pepper, sugar, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Stir to dissolve the sugar. Set the sauce aside.
• In a wok or large skillet over medium heat, warm the canola oil. Add the ginger and stir-fry until aromatic, about 30 seconds. Add the mushrooms, spinach, carrot, and tofu. Stir to combine and then add the sauce. Stir-fry until a small amount of liquid remains, about 2 minutes. Stir the cornstarch mixture, then add it to the wok. When the mixture thickens, turn off the heat and add the green onions. Cool completely before use.

TANGY SOY DIPPING SAUCE

• MAKES ABOUT 1/2 CUP Stir together 1/3 cup gluten-free soy sauce, 2-1/2 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar, 1/8 teaspoon sugar, and 1 to 3 teaspoons chili oil. Taste and adjust the seasoning. Right before serving, stir in 1 tablespoon finely grated peeled fresh ginger for extra punch.

• Soak the beans overnight in cold water. Drain them and put them into a large, heavy pot. Add 1⁄2 cup olive oil, the peeled intact onion half, the celery stalk, bay leaf, and 10 cups cold water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until beans are very tender, about 2 1⁄2 hours. Season with salt to taste. Remove and discard the onion, bay leaf, and celery.
• In a heavy, 5-quart saucepan, heat the remaining 1⁄2 cup olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the minced onion, minced celery, and carrot, stirring briefly. Let the vegetables sizzle for a moment in the oil, then lower the heat to medium-low or low and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables have softened and are slightly translucent, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic, rosemary, and red pepper flakes to the pot, stir well, and let cook for a minute or so. Stir in the tomato paste, then add the beans and the bean cooking liquid to the pot. Bring to a boil over high heat, stirring occasionally, and then lower the heat and simmer for about 10 minutes.
• Remove 2 cups of beans from the pot and puree them with 1 1⁄2 cups water in a blender until smooth. Stir the pureed beans back into the pot and return to a boil. Stir the pasta into the pot and lower the heat to simmer, stirring often. Cook until the pasta is tender yet still retains a slight firmness in the center, about 20 minutes. Stir in the fennel and 1⁄2 cup cold water. Season generously, to taste, with salt and let rest 5 minutes before serving.
• Drizzle with Pequin Chile Oil or an extremely good, grassy extra-virgin olive oil, and serve.

PEQUIN CHILE OIL

• In a small saucepan, heat 1⁄2 cup of olive oil over medium-low heat until hot to the touch, about 3 to 4 minutes. Remove pot from the heat. Stir in 2 tablespoons of pequin chile flakes or other hot red pepper flakes and let them steep for at least 30 minutes. Cool the chile oil, and then transfer it to a covered container. Stir well before using to ensure chile flakes are suspended in each spoonful of oil. You can store the oil, refrigerated, for up to 1 month.

• Slice each bun in half, then slice each half into 8 triangles like a pizza. In a medium bowl, whisk the milk, orange juice, eggs, sugar, salt, and vanilla until combined.
• Pour the mixture into a large, shallow bowl and distribute the brioche slices in the mixture, occasionally gently pushing them down to soak until they are well saturated, 15 to 20 minutes.
• In a large, heavy-bottomed skillet, melt 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat. Working in batches, place the brioche slices in the bubbling butter in a single layer. Reduce the heat to low and cook until the brioche is just golden brown, 3 minutes on each side.
• Transfer to a serving platter, sprinkle with powdered sugar and maple syrup, and serve with toothpicks or a large spoon.

• Place all the ingredients in a ziplock plastic bag or covered container and let marinate for 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 400°F. Spread the green beans in one layer on a large rimmed baking sheet. Roast for 12 minutes, stirring halfway through. Serve.

Make the crust:

• In the bowl of a
stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the almond, sweet rice, and chestnut flours with the tapioca flour, sugar, and salt. Scatter the butter pieces over the top and drizzle with the vanilla. Turn the mixer to medium-low and run until the butter is completely integrated, 3 to 5 minutes. (If the dough doesn’t come together, work it with your hands.)
• Transfer the crumbs into a 9-inch
tart pan with a removable bottom
and press the dough firmly and
evenly into the pan, starting with the sides and then moving to the bottom. Prick the bottom of the crust all over with the tines of a fork and freeze until firm, 15 to 30 minutes.
• Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350oF. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and place the tart pan on it.

Make the tart:

• Cut the flesh off each apple core in large chunks, cutting close to the core (alternatively, halve and core the apples). Cut each chunk into slices as thin as possible, about 1⁄8-inch thick, keeping the slices stacked together and discarding the rounded edges. Fan the slices out lengthwise slightly and place them, cut-side facing the center of the tart, around the outside of the shell, tucking the last apple under the first to make a continuous loop. Repeat with a second layer just inside the first, reversing the fan if you like, and continue until you’ve filled the tart, tucking in as many of the extra pieces as you can; the apples will reduce a lot as they cook. Sprinkle all over with the sugar and dot with the butter.
• Bake the tart until the tips of the apples are bronzed and the fruit is bubbling furiously, 65 to 75 minutes. There’s a fine line between cooking the apples all the way and burning the crust. Watch and remove the tart early if the crust becomes too dark. Let the tart cool for 1 hour, then drizzle all over with the caramel sauce and serve warm or at room temperature.

• Pour the cream into a small saucepan with a lid, scrape the seeds from the vanilla bean into the pan, then add
the vanilla bean pod and heat over medium heat until steamy, swirling the pan occasionally. Remove from the heat, cover, and let steep.
• Pour 1⁄4 cup water into a heavy- bottomed saucepan. Add the corn syrup, then carefully pour the sugar into the center of the pan. If any sugar crystals stick to the sides of the pan, brush them down into the water with moistened fingers. Cover and cook, without stirring, over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved, about 3 minutes. Uncover and continue to gently boil, without stirring, until the mixture turns a deep amber, gently tilting the pan to encourage even caramelization. This will take only a few minutes; watch the pan carefully toward the end and reduce the heat to low if needed.
• When the mixture turns a dark
amber, remove the pan from the
heat, immediately swirl in the butter, then gently and slowly whisk in the cream mixture. Return the pan to low heat and whisk gently to dissolve
any hardened caramel. Strain into a heatproof bowl and let stand, stirring occasionally, until cooled. Stir in
1⁄2 teaspoon flaky salt, crushing any extra-large bits between your fingers, and season to taste with more salt.

• Preheat the oven to 375°F. Spray a 9-by-9-inch baking pan with nonstick spray. Press in a piece of aluminum foil that fits up to the rim, then press in a piece of parchment paper of the same size.
• In a large bowl, stir together the oats, flour, tapioca starch, sugar, walnuts, salt, baking soda, and cinnamon until well combined. Add the shortening and combine, using your hands, until the mixture is homogeneous and holds together when pressed.
• Firmly and evenly press 3⁄4 of the mixture into the prepared pan. Spread the raspberry jam evenly onto the dough, leaving a 1⁄2-inch border on all sides of the pan (to aid in unmolding). Top with the frozen fruit. Sprinkle the remaining crumble mixture over the fruit, leaving some fruit peeking through.
• Bake for 35 minutes, rotate the pan, and bake for another 10 to 15 minutes, until evenly golden brown and well set. Chill completely before cutting and serving.

• Place the chickpeas in a bowl, cover with 3 inches of water, then soak overnight. Drain just before using.
• In a food processor, combine the garlic, onion, Italian parsley, smoked paprika, cumin, coriander, and salt. Add the drained chickpeas, then pulse, stopping and scraping down the sides occasionally, until the mixture becomes a coarse meal that sticks together when squeezed into a ball. Scoop out about 3 tablespoons of the dough and shape it into a ball, then slightly flatten the ball. Repeat with all the dough.
• Line a plate with paper towels. In a heavy small or medium skillet over medium heat, heat 1 inch of vegetable oil to 350ºF to 375ºF. (You can tell if the oil is ready by dipping a wooden spoon into it; if the oil steadily bubbles around the spoon, you’re good to go. If the oil vigorously bubbles, it’s too hot.) Working in batches, carefully place the balls into the oil and fry until the falafel are golden brown and crispy, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Drain on the prepared plate.
• For the pear relish: Place all the ingredients in a bowl and toss to combine.
• Serve the falafel with the relish on the side.

• Blend the spinach and coconut water together until smooth. Add the turmeric, apple, banana, mango, pineapple, and lemon juice. Blend on high speed until completely smooth, about 1 minute.
