Summer Pudding
This simple English dessert is best when using the ripest and sweetest berries on the bush.
Lemon Meringue Pie
The addition of fresh raspberries makes for a sweet surprise in this otherwise standard lemon meringue pie.
Dill Mousseline Sauce
This updated version of a blender hollandaise sauce makes a tasty accompaniment for vegetables or poached fish.
Crab–Potato Salad
There is no shortage of crab in Alaska in July and August. We even found it tucked amid layers of sliced potatoes in this sweet but rich summer classic.
Poached Salmon
Serve this lovely salmon with our briny Egg–Caper Sauce or Dill Mousseline Sauce for an elegant, flavorful meal.
Rhubarb–Ginger Jam
Rhubarb isn’t just for pies—add some spicy-sweet ginger, and you’ve got the makings of a lovely jam.
Cedar-Smoked Salmon
You don’t need a smoker to lend a slightly spicy, faintly sweetish hint of the outdoors to fresh salmon—this oven method works nicely.
Halibut Salad
A former chef at the Glacier Bay Country Inn in Gustavus, Alaska, created this salad to use up leftover halibut, but it can be made with salmon as well.
Egg–Caper Sauce
This briny, creamy but chunky sauce is the perfect contrast to the richness of poached salmon.
Wild Berry Jam
Wild berries make the best jams, of course, but if you can’t get them, good store-bought berries will do.
Vietnamese Spring Rolls
Making spring rolls is like making pancakes: you have to get a feel for it, and until you do, you have to be willing to give up your unsuccessful efforts to the kitchen gods.
Daiquiri
American miners discovered this cocktail at a bar in the town of Daiquirí, Cuba, around the turn of the 20th century.
Planter’s Punch
This fruity cocktail is ideal for summer parties, or simply re-creating the feel of a summery day.
Mai Tai
Despite its exotic name—Tahitian for “out of this world”—and flavor, the Mai Tai was invented in California.
Valencian Pasta
Short, thin noodles called fideos (fideus in Valencian) replace rice in this seafood variation on paella, invented in the seaside town of Gandia, south of Valencia.
