Hello, fellow cooks! I’m Benjamin Kemper, SAVEUR’s new senior recipes editor. I’m thrilled to be kicking off a fresh weekly column called One Pot Bangers. We’ll tackle easy meal-in-one recipes you’ll want to make over and over—and that require a single pot, skillet, or baking sheet. From pastas to stir-fries to sheet-pan dinners, my internationally inflected recipes are short on fuss and long on flavor. Time-crunched and cleanup-averse? You’ve come to the right place.
I have a feeling you’ll love the first installment, a lemony one-pot pasta bursting with marinated zucchini, Parmigiano, and fresh herbs. It was inspired by the best thing I ate in Rome last month, which I’ll reveal in my upcoming column. (A little cheap suspense never hurt anyone.) So pull up a chair, pour yourself a glass of something, and let’s cook together. –Benjamin Kemper, Senior Recipes Editor |
