Recipes for the Super Bowl, Valentine’s Day, and more.

Mussels with Fennel Cream
Thomas J. Story

January always feels like a long month, so when February comes around it’s much welcomed. And what better way to celebrate the start of a new month than trying out some new dishes?

We’re still in the middle of winter, so cozy comfort foods are still in season, like Savoy Cabbage Soup with Tiny Meatballs, Stracciatella Soup with Macaroni, Parmigiano Brodo, and Asparagus, and Eggplant Stroganoff.

With the Super Bowl early in the month, if you’re looking for recipes to feed your crew, we’ve got you covered. Smoky Beef-and-Bacon Chili Nachos are always a crowd-pleaser. You’ve got to have wings for the Big Game, so try our Grilled Chicken Wings with Tamarind Chipotle Barbecue Sauce or Lemon-Drop Chicken Wings. And don’t forget the dips, like Spring Onion Dip or Chile Con Queso.

There’s also Valentine’s Day this month. Sure, you can make a reservation at a nice restaurant, but planning a date night at home has so many pros. You won’t have to spend a fortune on an overpriced meal that might not be very good, you won’t have to deal with the crowds that night, and you can decide exactly what you want to eat and drink. We’ve got some ideas for your Valentine’s Day (or even Galentine’s Day) menu—think Bison with Hazelnut Spätzle and Charred Carrots, Yellow Curry Prawns, Parmesan Polenta with a Quick Ragù, and Molten Chocolate Mousse Cups for dessert.

February may be the shortest month of the year, but it’s also an action-packed one with a lot of fun opportunities in the kitchen. See the recipes we recommend making this month below.
