1. Spaghetti all’Assassina
Like a one-pot spaghetti recipe, this dish adds the uncooked pasta into the pan with a thin tomato sauce and then lets it scorch. The end result it like the crispy corner of lasagna — a little charred, but also the best piece.
2. Charcuterie Nachos
Topping potato chips with brie cheese, cured meats and dried fruits is something we need in our lives. A drizzle of hot honey and a little arugula brings it all together. Serve with a chilled glass of Chardonnay.
3. Lavashak and Pomegranate Seeds
Lavashak is an Iranian fruit leather made with tart fruits
like plums, apricots and sour cherries. In the TikTok Shop, you can buy rolls soaked
in a pomegranate molasses, which makes it taste very sweet. TikTok snackers are then
dipping the juicy rolls into bowls of pomegranate arils for crunch. Noisily slurping
each bite seems to be part of the experience.
4. Angel Hair Chocolate
Like a sequel to Dubai chocolate bars, this version is
stuffed with dragon’s beard candy, a flossy, crunchy candy you make by
stretching a gob of soft candy over a tray of cornstarch. When you’ve stretched
the candy into fine threads, stuff into the center of a chocolate bar mold,
surrounded by melty chocolate, creating a textured center. You can add whatever
colors and flavors you choose, and the more vibrant, the better.
5. Chia Seed Jam
We’re all for adding to our favorite dishes to boost
nutrition in a dish. Jam can be improved with high fiber and protein-rich chia
seeds. Blend together frozen fruit with a little honey and chia, and you’ll have
a healthy spread that is great on toast, baked goods or on top of yogurt and oatmeal.
6. Onion Ring Chips
Parmesan cheese and thinly sliced onions, baked on a sheet, make a lighter
dupe for onion rings and taste even better when dipped in ranch dressing.
7. Reese’s Slab
The best Reese's seasonal peanut butter cup is the Easter egg shape, but this slab version is pretty incredible, too — so thick, so much peanut butter and chocolate that you're going to love it.
8. Fruity Rice Paper Pillows
Rice paper, when sandwiched together and sealed, makes crunchy little puffed crackers in the oven. Bust a little hole on top and fill with your choice of fillings, like the fruit and Nutella used here. Crunch!
9. Korean Marinated Eggs
These soy sauce-marinated soft-boiled eggs are so addictive, they've acquired the unsavory nickname of "drug eggs." They're just really tasty eggs, though, nothing illicit, especially when served over warm steamed rice.
10. Dubai Chocolate Strawberries
Also a spinoff of Dubai chocolate bars is this cup version, combining melted chocolate, strawberries, pistachio cream and butter-browned kataifi — a solid improvement to a wildly popular trend.
11. Meghan's One Pot Pasta
Meghan Markle/Sussex's one pot pasta recipe is trending right now because of her Netflix show, "With Love, Meghan." Now you can make it too, adding everything but the aesthetic kitchen sink.
