September offers seasonal abundance—it’s just as common to see markets furnished with the final harvests of late-summer produce as it is to see pumpkin spice galore in cafés and bakeries. The most popular recipes of the month reflected this hodgepodge.
For a recipe that screams “summer’s not over!” make this grilled salad with creamy miso dressing. It comes from renowned cookbook author Samin Nosrat and is brimming with corn, shishito peppers, and cherry tomatoes. To keep making the most of your grill, try Nosrat’s Joojeh Kebab, where chicken thighs are marinated in yogurt, saffron, and a hit of citrus before being splayed on the barbecue.
Looking to welcome autumn with open arms? Make this sky-high fall salad. Boats of bitter radicchio are layered with funky blue cheese, hazelnuts, and creamy butternut squash.
