This sherry-Cynar Negroni riff was created by bartender Dan Greenbaum at The Beagle in New York City.

To create the fluffiest, most pillowy Buss Up Shut, Ramin Ganeshram took a deep dive into the version she’d included in her cookbook, Sweet Hands. Here, she shares a few tips for making great roti.

Holidays tend to involve some effervescent fun, and we are celebrating while sticking to our sugar-free ways throughout the season. We created this Spiced Pear and Bourbon cocktail that will be perfect for any holiday, celebration, or chilly Tuesday evening. The spiced pear syrup is the star of the show and starts with a high-quality pear juice simmered with ginger, cinnamon, and a hint of cloves.  As a sweetener for the syrup we like to use Swerve because it measures just like sugar, so it’s easy to use in any recipe. In this cocktail, we went for Brown Swerve to really help add a rich caramel flavor that marries perfectly with the pear and warm fall spices. The final cocktail only has six carbs per serving but is still bursting with flavor! We hope you like it! It’s Peary good.

When the weather turns crisp and cool, I crave a house that smells like autumnal, warm spices. This sesame oat apple crisp fits the bill perfectly. The topping is studded with sesame seeds and rolled oats, giving this crisp a delicious nutty aroma and perfectly chewy texture. It's filled with the season’s best apples and tossed with Swerve (my go-to alternative sweeteners when I want to add flavor without the carbs and calories), warm spices, and lemon juice, creating a marriage of salty and sweet, nutty and delicious.

Sweet red or green grapes also have just the right amount of acidity. Sweet fennel and honey, Calabrian chile paste, and red wine vinegar make this a balanced meal.

This scalloped potatoes recipe is a classic from Gourmet, simply made with softened onions, an easy roux, and thinly sliced potatoes.
