Vivian Howard

For the holidays, Vivian Howard always receives a few jars of ‘Apple Pie’ cocktail as gifts.

For the holidays, Vivian Howard always makes her mom’s salt-and-butter-roasted pecans.

These biscuits are more sturdy than flaky, which means they won’t crumble on the way to your mouth.

Some smart tweaks to this classic dessert include roasting the bananas to deepen their flavor, making sesame wafers, and serving the pudding warm.

The bright roe adds a salty pop to these hors d’oeuvres.

This is a great roast to knock out in the morning.

If you come across turnips with good-looking greens still attached, use in place of the kale.

Using pecans as a nut butter in the dressing and salt-roasted on top lends an earthy note to this bright spring salad.

A fragrant and bright spring cocktail that's just as delicious without the alcohol.

Radishes and butter, ham and mustard. Two classic combos in one delicious appetizer.
