Newfoundland cod au gratin

Cod au gratin is a Newfoundland and Labrador staple, made in St. John's kitchens and outport homes for Sunday dinner, church suppers and Christmas time, when cod has been the island's lifeline for centuries. Pieces of fresh cod are layered in a buttery dish, covered in a creamy white sauce and blanketed with sharp cheddar and buttery breadcrumbs, then baked until bubbling and golden. The usual mistake is pre-cooking the cod: it overcooks into dry crumbs in the oven. Lay it in raw; it is done when it is opaque all the way through and flakes easily under a fork. Serve with mashed potatoes, peas or a green salad. Chef's tip: warm the milk before whisking it into the roux; the sauce comes together smooth in seconds, with no lumps.

Wisconsin beer cheese soup

Beer cheese soup is a Wisconsin tavern and Packers game-day classic, made with the state's sharp cheddar and a local lager and served with soft pretzels or popcorn on top. It is thick, silky and tangy, with a little mustard and smoked paprika. It contains beer; most of the alcohol cooks off but not all, so for an alcohol-free version use alcohol-free lager or extra stock with 1 tsp cider vinegar. Aged cheddar is often made with animal rennet, so use a vegetarian cheddar. Chef's tip: add the cheese off the heat, a handful at a time, or it turns grainy.

Macaroni pieBaked macaroni and cheese

Macaroni pie is a must on the Trinidadian Sunday lunch table, beside callaloo, rice, stew and salad. It isn't a saucy macaroni cheese but a firm bake: macaroni mixed with sharp cheddar, evaporated milk, eggs, mustard and a little onion and pepper, baked until golden and set enough to cut into neat squares. Kids love it, and it's just as good cold the next day. Chef's tip: let the pie rest for 20 minutes after it comes out of the oven. It firms up as it cools slightly, so you get clean, proper slices instead of a soft heap.
