After you finish pickling the strawberries, hang on to the brine, which can be used in place of mild vinegars.
Blueberry–Chia Seed Jam
Preserve those last summer berries with this quick and easy jam. Then slather it on toast, whisk it into a fruity salad dressing, or swirl into store-bought ice cream.
Red Curry–Marinated Japanese Eggplant
Japanese eggplants are smaller, sweeter, and faster-cooking than other types. If using globe eggplants, slice them into half-inch rounds.

This is a simple recipe that tends to impress. These elegant roulades are surprisingly easy to make and will get you a standing ovation at the dinner table. Take a bow, as you're giving everyone a nice dose of brain protection thanks to the vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin K, fiber, and phytonutrients found in the watercress and collards. If you can't locate fresh figs, swap in two thinly sliced ripe pears, and feel free to swap out the collards for kale.
