Quince Jam With Cardamom and Pistachios
There’s no substitute for quince, which is closely related to apples and pears. If you can’t find it fresh, look for a high-quality quince jam from a Middle Eastern market.

Butterballs
Feel free to sub in an equal amount of another liquor, such as bourbon, for this cookies recipe, or omit completely if you’re serving these to kiddos.

Pignoli Cookies
There is just no getting around the fact that almond paste is indispensable for these meringue-like cookies; it transforms their flavor and helps them brown evenly. Some brands sell in a tube; others will be in a can in the baking aisle. Using the tube is ideal since the canned might be looser, but either works for this recipe.

Hermit Slices
To ensure these don’t break, use a couple of layers of parchment paper or foil in the baking dish and make sure they’re completely cooled before removing them.

Garlicky Yogurt Dip with Herb Jam and Toasted Almonds
Golden raisins would also work nicely in this yogurt dip recipe instead of the dried apricots. You want a little sweet to play against the bite of the garlic and the brightness of the herbs.

Spicy Wet Walnuts with Chile, Orange, and Star Anise
This dead-simple walnuts recipe is sweet and savory, which means you can take it in either direction. It’s an amazing sundae topping and would transform an ordinary bowl of oatmeal into a thing of greatness, but you could also serve it on a cheese board or as a condiment for roast pork chops. Choices!

Caramel Corn Popcorn Balls
These cute, packable treats need to be formed when the caramel is still warm and malleable. For this popcorn balls recipe, after coating them with caramel, wait just long enough for them to be cool enough to handle.

Miso Caramel Apple
The caramel in this recipe is chewy, so it will stick to the apple but won’t turn into a hard shell when cooled.

Winter Panzanella With Stuffing Croutons
Stuffing salad still counts as salad, right? In this recipe, it does.

Butternut Squash Agnolotti
Agnolotti is one of our favorite pasta shapes because the little pockets catch the sauce; try a variation with a simple ricotta filling and marinara sauce instead. Here are step-by-step instructions on how to make agnolotti.

Shaved Kohlrabi with Mint, Tahini, and Pistachios
Kohlrabi "bulbs" fall somewhere between the size of golf balls and softballs. The smaller they are, the sweeter they are, which is desirable for this recipe since you're serving them raw.
