Homemade chocolate fudge may be one of life's most nostalgic foods. For me, it brings to mind the "individually-wrapped in cellophane" fudge squares that a classmate's mom some times brought to my elementary school classroom to share with all of us for a Halloween or Christmas party. The flavor was about as appetizing as the sentence describing it. And, it was rock hard.

Here's another recipe for fudge that's very easy to make. You can double it, or quadruple it, for more servings. 4 tablespoons cocoa or cacao powder (I like 2 tablespoons of each)

Any short or long noodles in your pantry can be dressed up with a light vinaigrette or a rich and creamy sauce to become a pasta salad. In this recipe, we use fregola, a small, round pasta that originates from Sardinia. Pretty much any vegetable, raw or briefly blanched, can be brought in to add flavor and texture, and you can incorporate a protein of your choice for a heartier dish. Here, a bright and herbaceous chermoula, a North African condiment traditionally made with herbs, lemon juice, and warm spices like cumin and coriander, doubles as a marinade for shrimp and a dressing for vegetables in this summery dish.
