Today's recipes represent some of the world's most respected cuisines. Lucinda begins with pastitsio, a hearty Greek casserole of cinnamon-flavored ground lamb, baked pasta and a creamy Parmesan sauce. Today's "Have You Tried?" ingredient is chipotle in adobo. Emma uses this everyday Latin-American staple in meatballs in chipotle sauce. In today's "Cooking for One," Sarah prepares a fast-cooking Moroccan chicken, sweetened with honey, warmed by ginger and flecked with fresh tomatoes and served on a bed of fluffy couscous. The flavors of Asia abound when Margot makes a Chinese classic - pork chops with bok choy. Allie fills the cookie jar with Mexican wedding cakes: buttery pecan and cinnamon cookies rolled in powdery confectioners' sugar.
