This September, readers loved gentle and nourishing foods. Take, for example, this low-FODMAP-friendly chicken and radish stir-fry from editorial operations manager Kate Kassin. What makes it easy on a sensitive stomach? No onions or garlic. But just because the alliums aren’t in attendance does not mean there’s a lack of flavor. Malty black vinegar, salty soy sauce, and peppery ginger all add plenty of oomph.
Also popular: this warming Pork Rib Soup With Figs, which cookbook author Clarissa Wei first tried in a postpartum hotel. She uses dried Turkish figs, which add delicate sweetness and body to the broth, next to the supple, bite-size ribs.
If you’d prefer fish, try this One-Pan Salmon With Burst Tomatoes. Dumping a medley of butter, soy, sesame oil, and tomatoes into a pan creates a savory and soothing poaching liquid to cook the fish until flaky.
And of course, it wouldn’t feel like autumn without pumpkin. To be precise, this cloud-like Pumpkin Chiffon Pie. Where will you start? Read on to explore the most popular recipes this month.
