  1. Melissa Clark's slow-cooked green beans
    2. We adore green beans that have been slow-cooked; we have a similar Greek-style recipe here. We can hardly wait to try Melissa's version! It doesn't hurt that grilled sausages are also involved.

  2. Chapati on the grill
    3. This was a close runner-up for our favorite. Mark Bittman shows how to cook the classic Indian chapati bread on a grill.

  3. Good coffee roasting in Brooklyn
    4. Stumptown Coffee Roasters is coming to New York! Good news for all who love fresh-roasted beans.

  4. Succotash!
    5. Fresh lima beans are in season.

  5. George Washington...distiller?
    6. The Founding Father's distillery has been reconstructed and reopened.
