Open in Pepper →Dinner That Tastes Like April
Spring cooking is about lightening up after months of stews and roasts — bright citrus, tender asparagus, seared fish, and quick garlic shrimp all fit the season perfectly.
Cooks on Pepper reach for this collection when the days get longer and heavy winter dinners feel wrong — every recipe leans on fresh herbs, lemon, and vegetables that are actually in season.
Every dinner here comes together in 45 minutes or less, keeping the kitchen cool and the plate looking like April instead of January.
Quick Tips
- 1
Lemon zest at the end
Add lemon zest right before serving — the oils fade fast, so save it for the finish.
- 2
Snap the asparagus
Bend a stalk until it breaks naturally; that's where the tough end starts.
- 3
Fresh herbs, not dried
Spring produce deserves fresh parsley, dill, mint, or basil — swap in whatever the market has that week.
- 4
Don't overcook the fish
Salmon and shrimp both go from perfect to dry in a minute — pull them a shade under and let carryover cook them through.
