Mille Feuille Nabe
If you’ve been scrolling through your “For You” page lately, chances are you’ve come across the beautifully layered Mille Feuille Nabe. This viral Japanese hot pot dish is more than just eye candy—it’s an incredibly easy, comforting, and healthy weeknight dinner that comes together in less than 30 minutes. Pro-tip: If you have a hot plate, set the nabe on it to keep a steady simmer going throughout dinner.

While I may not have grown up with a nonna stirring sauce on the stove, I believe there’s something deeply communal and comforting about this kind of meal.

Cilantro Chicken Meatball Bahn Mis
Pork bone and daikon soup is one of the simplest yet most fulfilling Chinese soups in my repertoire. It’s a dish rooted in tradition, where comfort meets nourishment. The recipe begins by simmering pork rib bones in a hearty, flavorful bone broth until they become fall-apart tender. Then, the ribs are joined by chunks of daikon and carrots, creating a harmonious blend of savory and subtly sweet flavors.

Pot Au Feu
Pot-au-feu, the quintessential French dish of gently boiled meats and vegetables, has long been a symbol of rustic elegance. But in my kitchen, tradition always leaves room for a little twist. Enter: corned beef.
