La Paz Batchoy
A regional soup packed with egg noodles and pig parts, La Paz batchoy was born in the La Paz district of Iloilo city, in the province where chef Dale Talde's mother was born. Talde's version streamlines the traditional recipe, keeps the liver and intestines optional, and applies just enough shrimp paste to keep things funky.

Breezier weather calls for hearty stews, sweet potatoes, and the last grilled veggie send-off. Sure, we may be saying goodbye to outdoor, open-fire grilling season, but we’re ushering equally great red-and-orange foliage, crisp sweater weather, and of course, fall produce.

Say hello to carrots, sweet potatoes, pumpkin, and squash in September. We love using them as the stars of simple salads, or in supporting roles for pastas and stews. As the temperature steadily drops, we welcome noodle soups and steamy savory pies to stay warm.

From Moroccan carrot salad to Chinese steamed buns and Filipino noodle soup, here are the perfect-for-fall recipes we can’t wait to make in September.

This substantial summer salad is a tribute to the “everything tastes better grilled” philosophy of cooking, one with which I am currently obsessed. Here, watermelons get even sweeter from the flames, shrimp gets crisp and plump, and avocado turns deliciously smoky. Get the recipe for Grilled Watermelon, Avocado, and Shrimp Salad »
