Open Slideshow

Second to frozen desserts, like ice cream and popsicles, s’mores (in any and all forms!) are a summertime staple. Graham crackers, chocolate, marshmallows — no matter how you arrange those three simple ingredients, this dessert is a treat.

Whether you go for the standard toasted marshmallow and wedge of chocolate sandwiched between two graham crackers, prefer a more creative filling, or transform this sweet treat into something baked or frozen, you’re on track for a delicious summer.

It’s easy to love zucchini and summer squash when they first appear on farmers market tables in vibrant stacks of green and yellow — trickier once we move deeper into the summer and zucchini seems to be stalking us at every turn. This summer, let’s establish some new favorites early on and keep the party going as long as we possibly can.

Here’s your guide to choosing, cooking, and loving zucchini and summer squash, from first blossom to the final garden harvest.

Mention the beautiful, hazy, pale green leaves of garden sage, and I immediately envision scenes in my grandmother’s kitchen at Thanksgiving. Sage’s pronounced pine-like aroma capitalizes on our most memory-evoking sense: smell. All I want at that moment is savory sage stuffing or sage-studded breakfast sausage to suddenly appear in my kitchen. I’d even settle for a sour cherry and sage bourbon smash.

The best part about growing sage is that you only need one of these incredibly easy-to-grow plants in your garden to enjoy its flavor throughout the year.

Labneh is a type of Middle Eastern “cheese” made from strained yogurt. Thick and creamy with a mild, tangy flavor, labneh is typically served as a spread or dip. Although labneh can be found in many grocery stores, it’s also really easy to make at home. And if you make it with organic, full-fat cultured yogurt, it’s chock-full of good saturated fat and beneficial probiotics.

Even so, you might be thinking, “Dairy? Really?” If that’s the case, then this recipe might not be for you. It’s true that some people don’t tolerate dairy well. But it’s also true that for others, a little bit of dairy can be part of a healthy, well-rounded diet. As noted in this definitive guide, dairy resides in Primal limbo. If you do indulge, then homemade labneh can be a delicious savory treat.

Making labneh is simple: Wrap full-fat yogurt in cheesecloth and let the moisture drain out for 12 to 24 hours, depending on how thick you want it. Then, pour really good extra virgin olive oil on top and if you like, throw in some herbs and/or spices. Mint, basil, parsley, and chives are good; so are za’atar, black pepper and cumin.

Serve labneh with Primal crackers (Primal Cravings has a great recipe for Everything Crackers) or as a dip for raw vegetables. Spoon it over cooked lamb, roasted vegetables, chili and stew, or any spicy dish that needs a cool, creamy topping.

Servings: 1 ½ cups labneh

Time in the Kitchen: 10 minutes, plus 24 hours to strain the yogurt

Ingredients:

• 32 ounces/3 cups (907 g) organic full-fat plain yogurt
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (3.7 ml)
• ¼ cup really good extra virgin olive oil (60 ml)
• 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh herbs (30 ml)

Instructions:

Set a strainer over a bowl. Drape a few layers of cheesecloth over the strainer.

Pour the yogurt into the cheesecloth. Bring the ends of the cheesecloth up around the yogurt into a bundle and tie with a string or rubber band. Keep the bundle in the strainer or hang the bundle over a bowl so the moisture drips out. Refrigerate at least 12 hours and up to 24 hours while the yogurt is strained.

Use a rubber spatula to scrape the thick labneh from the cheesecloth into a bowl. Stir in salt, olive oil and herbs.

It’s early summer and the roses in my yard are in riotous, glorious bloom — almost surreal in their scent and color. The other day the lusty, deep-pink ones were at their absolute peak; when I touched them the petals just fell away. So I brought a few handfuls into the house and left them to dry on my kitchen table, spread out on a plate. No fussy prep here, just a scattering of petals and the gentle summertime air. And time.
