Mains

The main course is the thing the rest of the meal circles around. These are the recipes Lucinda has cooked, tested, and served to her own family over four decades. Easy weeknight dinners, slow Sunday braises, roast chickens, pasta nights, pork chops, fish, chicken thighs in every configuration, the occasional show-off dish for a dinner party. Recipes built for how home cooks actually cook: real pans, real weeknights, real people to feed.
