This Year, Create a S.A.L.T.-inspired Festive Feast

For us, the inspiration to cook new dishes often comes from our travels. This year, we reached out to chefs in some of our favorite European ports of call for recipes that are distinctly flavored by their own culinary traditions. Here, we offer some genuinely delicious holiday options.

Sicily: Buccellati Christmas Cookies

Sicily is known for its colorful, sometimes cloyingly sweet cornucopia of pastries, cakes and other treats. Buccellati, fig and nut-filled Christmas cookies, is a particular favorite of holiday bakers.
