Everyday Dinners & Global Home Cooking

Hundreds of recipes by Elena Rosewood – weeknight dinners, comfort food and dishes for sharing.

Profile:

Elena Rosewood's recipes start from the dinner table: a pan of garlicky shrimp quesadillas, a lemon-ginger chicken soup, crispy baked vegetables with herbs, or a peach and blueberry cobbler for a family gathering. Most of the collection sits in Quick & Easy Weeknight, with a solid share of dishes in Global Comfort Food and plenty of recipes meant for sharing at gatherings.

The range is wide on purpose. Alongside weeknight mains you will find homemade breads such as pan-fried pita and pretzel buns, jams and sauces, simple desserts, and vegetarian plates, plus the occasional make-ahead dish for busy weeks. Dishes from Germany, Latin America, the Mediterranean and Asia sit next to classic home cooking, usually adapted to ingredients found in an ordinary grocery store.

What ties it together is practicality: short ingredient lists, clear steps, realistic timings and, where it helps, suggestions for swapping ingredients. Browse the latest recipes below to find a dinner for tonight or a dish to bring to the table next weekend.
