Lay fruit slices on a platter in alternating rows and sprinkle with pomegranate seeds. Top with zest and add mint, if desired. Serve immediately.

1. Preheat oven to 350ºF. Slice off top of each dinner roll and gently remove some bread until there is a hole large enough to accommodate an egg. Arrange rolls on a rimmed baking sheet. Reserve tops.

2. Crack an egg into each roll, then top with some herbs and a bit of cream. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with Parmesan.

3. Bake until eggs are set and bread is toasted, 20 to 25 minutes. After eggs have cooked for 20 minutes, place bread tops on baking sheet and bake until golden brown. Let sit 5 minutes. Place tops on rolls and serve warm.

1. Make soup: Melt butter in a pot over medium heat. Add onion and celery and cook, stirring, until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and sauté 1 minute, then add Worcestershire sauce and sauté 1 minute longer.

2. Open tomato cans and cut tomatoes (still in cans) with kitchen shears into large chunks. Add tomatoes and juice to pot, along with salt and pepper. Increase heat to high and bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and stir in horseradish. Let soup cool 10 minutes, then puree in blender in batches and pour through a strainer into a large pan. Keep warm.

3. Make topping: Using an electric mixer on medium-high speed, beat cream with horseradish until it forms stiff peaks. Divide soup among 8 cups and top with a dollop of horseradish cream. Garnish with chopped chives, if desired.

1. Make dressing: In a medium bowl (or jar with a screw-top lid) combine shallot, mustard, vinegar, sugar and a pinch each of salt and pepper; mix (or shake) to combine. Slowly whisk in olive oil until dressing is emulsified (or add all at once and shake to combine).

2. Make salad: Place greens, endives and herbs in a large bowl and drizzle with about half of dressing. Using your hands, gently toss. Taste and, if desired, add remaining dressing and season with additional salt and pepper.

1. Make salmon: Place fillets in a large pan in a single layer and add enough water to cover by 1 inch. Add onion, celery, carrot, peppercorns, salt, bay leaf and lemon juice. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat until water is barely simmering. Simmer until salmon fillets are cooked through and beginning to flake, about 10 minutes. Gently remove salmon from water and transfer to a wire rack set over a baking sheet and let cool to room temperature.

2. Make sauce: In a medium bowl, combine sour cream, mustard, lemon juice, dill, parsley, zest, salt and pepper and mix well to combine.

3. Arrange salmon on a platter surrounded by lemon wedges and sprigs of parsley and dill. Serve with mustard-herb sauce on side.

Divide pomegranate juice among 8 champagne flutes. Top off each glass with champagne. Garnish with a few pomegranate seeds, if desired.

1. Preheat oven to 350ºF. Grease a 12-cup Bundt pan. Make streusel: In a bowl, combine walnuts, both sugars, cinnamon and salt; set aside.

2. Make cake: In a bowl, whisk together both flours, baking powder and salt. Using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat both sugars and butter until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in eggs one at a time, mixing after each addition, then beat in egg yolk. Beat in half of flour mixture, until just combined. Stir in sour cream and vanilla, then fold in remaining flour mixture. Do not overmix. Batter will be thick.

3. Spread two-thirds of batter evenly in Bundt pan. Sprinkle streusel over, then top with remaining batter, gently spreading batter until streusel is entirely covered. Bake until a tester inserted in center of cake comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cake cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes, then turn out of pan onto wire rack to cool.

4. Make glaze: Sift confectioners' sugar into a small bowl, add milk and vanilla and mix with a fork until smooth. Drizzle glaze over top of cake, allowing some to drip down sides.
