Ribs are a great centerpiece to a festive summer gathering. I’ve been making grilled ribs for years, and my method has changed over time, for good reason. Amazing ribs are a challenge. But if you follow this technique, you will wow your guests and be relaxed at your own gathering!

Spring in Michigan comes the arrival of earthy, umami-packed mushrooms and delicate, crisp asparagus. This lovely seasonal “lasagna” is made with fresh ravioli rather than the traditional pasta sheets and requires no boiling water and very little prep!

We all need at least one “go-to”, fan-favorite recipe in our culinary toolbox, and mine is a simple celery seed dressing that is the perfect blend of sweet, tart, and savory.
