Steak Montreal
This recipe—affectionately dubbed Steak Montreal—lands somewhere between Montreal smoked meat, steak frites, and steak au poivre. What ties it all together is my homemade version of the iconic Montreal steak seasoning, the brainchild of Schwartz’s Deli and the flavor backbone of the city’s bizarro pastrami. Order their towering smoked meat sandwich and you’ll get what I mean. Montreal steak seasoning is a staple in spice aisles everywhere, but most versions miss the mark on the coarse texture...

After trying a wildflower honey cake at a bakery, Tess Gigone couldn’t get it out of her head—so she recreated it for an episode of It’s Fine. Turns out, it was a Russian honey cake (also called Medovik), an eight-layer dessert made with thin, toasty cake layers, burnt honey, and a light whipped cream icing.

The Obituary
Have no fear of absinthe! Although the so-called “Green Fairy” is famed for causing hallucinations, it truly is nothing but a high-proof spirit with a bold, herbal-anise flavor. Rumors of its mythic effects date back to 19th-century propaganda, mostly the work of French winemakers who were mad that everyone started drinking absinthe instead of wine. Regardless, this absinthe martini with an intimidating name is a great way to use up a bottle.
