It\u2019s the sidekick to that roast chicken or those takeout pizzas. Why not let it take center stage?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the weather cools and we find ourselves tucking into richer, heavier fare, turning to salad is a surprising move that I guarantee can be no less satisfying. I don\u2019t mean a cold, crisp bowl of lettuce. Instead, look to warm salads that take advantage of seasonal vegetables such as mushrooms, winter squash, cauliflower, and cabbage, and even fruit such as dates and apples. My newest cookbook, <em>Salad Seasons<\/em>, celebrates salads in unconventional, yet easy-to-execute ways. Serve up these cozy autumnal salads family-style, and you\u2019ll have a whole new kind of dinner party to indulge in this season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/recipes\/the-best-stuffed-mushrooms-french-onion-style\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"811\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/French-Onion-Stuffed-Mushrooms-811x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-46519\" srcset=\"https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/French-Onion-Stuffed-Mushrooms-811x1024.png 811w, https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/French-Onion-Stuffed-Mushrooms-238x300.png 238w, https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/French-Onion-Stuffed-Mushrooms-768x969.png 768w, https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/French-Onion-Stuffed-Mushrooms-1217x1536.png 1217w, https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/French-Onion-Stuffed-Mushrooms.png 1267w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 811px) 100vw, 811px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-french-onion-stuffed-mushrooms-with-bitter-greens\"><a href=\"https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/recipes\/the-best-stuffed-mushrooms-french-onion-style\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">French Onion\u2013Stuffed Mushrooms with Bitter Greens<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I ate a lot of stuffed portobello mushrooms during my days as a vegetarian. I was in college and single\u2014portobellos were cheap and perfectly portioned for one. The caps are endlessly versatile. Stuff them with cheese, beans, saut\u00e9ed greens, cooked grains, roasted vegetables, or even mashed squash or potatoes. Of all the iterations I\u2019ve worked my way through, though, these French onion soup\u2013inspired stuffed mushrooms win first prize. An abundance of jammy caramelized onions is loaded into the portobello caps before they\u2019re topped with nutty Gruy\u00e8re cheese and baked. The results are so umami-packed, they beg to be served atop a simple, vinaigrette- dressed salad for balance. A smattering of toasted breadcrumbs mimics the crispy bits of the cozy, classic soup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/recipes\/easy-one-pan-dinner-smashed-potato-and-spicy-chorizo-salad\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"748\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Smashed-Potato-and-Chorizo-748x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-46516\" srcset=\"https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Smashed-Potato-and-Chorizo-748x1024.png 748w, https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Smashed-Potato-and-Chorizo-219x300.png 219w, https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Smashed-Potato-and-Chorizo-768x1052.png 768w, https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Smashed-Potato-and-Chorizo-1121x1536.png 1121w, https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Smashed-Potato-and-Chorizo.png 1168w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 748px) 100vw, 748px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-smashed-potato-and-chorizo-sheet-pan-salad\"><a href=\"https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/recipes\/easy-one-pan-dinner-smashed-potato-and-spicy-chorizo-salad\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Smashed Potato and Chorizo Sheet Pan Salad<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This unconventional salad isn\u2019t shy. Smashed baby potatoes soak up the spicy juices from Mexican chorizo as they roast together harmoniously on a sheet pan. The two become a dinner salad once they\u2019re tossed with shredded lettuce and scallions, drizzled with a puckering lime vinaigrette, and finished with plenty of salty cheese crumbles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Queso fresco is a semisoft Mexican cheese that\u2019s similar to feta in milky-tangy flavor and crumbly texture. It can be found in rounds in the cheese section of most grocery stores; if you can\u2019t find it, a mild feta can be substituted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/recipes\/luxurious-poached-dates-with-caramel-creme-fraiche\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"881\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Earl-Grey-Poached-Dates-881x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-46518\" srcset=\"https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Earl-Grey-Poached-Dates-881x1024.png 881w, https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Earl-Grey-Poached-Dates-258x300.png 258w, https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Earl-Grey-Poached-Dates-768x893.png 768w, https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Earl-Grey-Poached-Dates-1322x1536.png 1322w, https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Earl-Grey-Poached-Dates.png 1377w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 881px) 100vw, 881px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-earl-grey-poached-dates-over-caramel-creme-fraiche\"><a href=\"https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/recipes\/luxurious-poached-dates-with-caramel-creme-fraiche\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Earl Grey\u2013Poached Dates over Caramel Cr\u00e8me Fra\u00eeche<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dates are so deeply sweet and candy-like, they\u2019re practically dessert all on their own. My husband, however, would never buy into this truth. So, I duped him by bringing caramel cream and cookies to the party\u2014the latter almost always does the trick. This is a luxurious way to end a meal on a cold winter night. But don\u2019t be too fooled: The soft, chewy dates are the star here, though piling them onto a little creamy decadence absolutely doesn\u2019t hurt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/recipes\/baked-cheese-is-the-star-of-this-winter-salad\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"748\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Seared-Slaw-with-Honey-748x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-46517\" srcset=\"https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Seared-Slaw-with-Honey-748x1024.png 748w, https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Seared-Slaw-with-Honey-219x300.png 219w, https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Seared-Slaw-with-Honey-768x1052.png 768w, https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Seared-Slaw-with-Honey-1121x1536.png 1121w, https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Seared-Slaw-with-Honey.png 1168w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 748px) 100vw, 748px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-seared-slaw-with-honey-and-sun-dried-tomato-baked-cheese\"><a href=\"https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/recipes\/baked-cheese-is-the-star-of-this-winter-salad\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Seared Slaw with Honey and Sun-Dried Tomato Baked Cheese<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s your permission to eat a whole wheel of cheese for dinner. Baked bloomy-rind cheeses such as Brie and Camembert are a retro appetizer that never really went out of style, especially around the holidays. But why reserve all that gooey luxury for festivities when you can turn it into a cozy winter meal? The key is to bring a little balance to the situation. Here, it\u2019s a warm red cabbage slaw. In keeping with the retro vibes, the cheese is piled with sun-dried tomatoes that are tossed with honey, balsamic, and herbs before it\u2019s baked. Serve the melty wheel in the center of a platter surrounded by the slaw, and let everyone scoop up generous portions of both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While a standard wheel of Brie will do just fine, I do think this salad deserves special treatment, given that it\u2019s a bit indulgent. Harbison is a bloomy-rind cheese from Jasper Hill Farm in Vermont that I am mildly obsessed with. It\u2019s shamelessly creamy, a bit stinky (in a good way), and both sweet and vegetal, making it much more complex than your average grocery store wheel. Look for it at your local specialty cheese shop, Whole Foods, or on the Jasper Hill website, and treat yourself to a mixed box of cheeses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/recipes\/make-an-acorn-squash-wedge-salad-this-winter\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"960\" src=\"https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Acorn-Squash-Wedge-Salad-1024x960.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-46515\" srcset=\"https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Acorn-Squash-Wedge-Salad-1024x960.png 1024w, https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Acorn-Squash-Wedge-Salad-300x281.png 300w, https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Acorn-Squash-Wedge-Salad-768x720.png 768w, https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Acorn-Squash-Wedge-Salad-1536x1441.png 1536w, https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Acorn-Squash-Wedge-Salad.png 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-acorn-squash-wedge-salad\"><a href=\"https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/recipes\/make-an-acorn-squash-wedge-salad-this-winter\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Acorn Squash Wedge Salad<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When we think of cooking winter squash, our minds often go straight to incorporating sweet ingredients like brown sugar or cinnamon. Here, crispy crumbled salami chips, nutty aged Gouda, and earthy fried sage prove squash can play just as well with salty, savory flavors. Though, to be sure, a little honey is snuck in for balance. This is a hearty salad that will keep your taste buds on their toes. Oh, and a friendly reminder that you can absolutely eat the squash skin! It gets nice and tender in the oven but holds on to a bit of its chew, which lends texture to every mouthful.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PHOTOGRAPHED BY KRISTIN TEIG Salad is all too often an afterthought at the dinner table.
