This hearty white bean soup is made with creamy cannellini beans and flavored with garlic and thyme. It's one of my family's favorite soups. Serve with grated Parmesan cheese.

In this mushroom ramen, dried shiitake mushrooms season instant ramen broth while they hydrate, and you can toss that seasoning packet. Add a few more ingredients to give body to the broth, and then top with whatever you like best—kimchi, chopped green onions, chili crisp, soft or hard boiled eggs—for even more flavor. Quail eggs are a great size for this, but chicken eggs work, too.

This Viking stew, made with meat, berries, mushrooms, plenty of fresh herbs, and root vegetables typically available to the Vikings, is a seemingly primitive dish with a remarkably sophisticated flavor. It works with any meat, so if you cannot hunt for wild boar, do not be dismayed—you can still make it!

This coconut lime fish soup is a rich, flavorful soup of tender white cod in a creamy coconut milk and tomato base, brightened with tangy fresh lime.
