Recipe information

1 1/2 cups sugar

1 1/2 cups water

In a saucepan, stir together 1 1/2 cups sugar and 1 1/2 cups water over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Let cool, then strain, cover, and chill.

We’ve got baked cheddar and leek pasta, maple-mustard sheet-pan salmon, and a strawberry shortcake roll.

The golden, crunchy corners are worth fighting over.

Keep this easy frittata recipe on hand for quick breakfasts, impressive brunches, and fridge clean-out meals.

Turn humble onions into this thrifty yet luxe pasta dinner.

Like spicy carrot rigatoni and weeknight-fancy ravioli with peas.

A veg-forward main or gets-along-with-everyone side.

Thinly sliced and cooked hot and fast, pork tenderloin is the juicy, cook-quicking weeknight champion of this vegetable-heavy stir-fry.

Not stuffed shells. But not not stuffed shells either.
