This Might Just Be the Springiest Salmon
Tejal here, filling in for Melissa!
I was so sick last week that I had to hide away completely, living on miso soup and rice. It's such a relief to scramble back up into the world and find that it is really and truly spring in Los Angeles. In my garden, the nasturtiums and lemon verbena are coming up, and the wisteria and borage are blooming.
The peas are fat and sweet, the radishes are small and peppery and I found a big, beautiful piece of trout in the freezer. It's clearly time to make this roasted fish with radishes and peas from Kay Chun. I love the simplicity of this recipe: Get a slab of salmon or trout in the oven while the peas and radishes lather in miso, mustard and butter, which cooks the vegetables just a little and makes a quick pan sauce at the same time.

You could swap in other quick-cooking vegetables like zucchini, artichokes or whatever greens you have on hand and serve it with super creamy mashed potatoes, but I have to admit that it's also perfect with a side of miso soup and rice.
What other delights will this week hold? A one-pot whole roasted chicken and rice from Naz Deravian presents an old-fashioned but nonetheless genius technique. The rice and chicken cook together in a saffron-scented broth, the chicken making the broth more complex as it cooks down in the oven, that broth flavoring the rice more deeply.
If you need a break from rice — I don't, but I get it! — Hetty McKinnon's recipe for creamy vegan tofu noodles involves two fast and essential sauces you should have in your repertoire. The first totally transforms a block of firm tofu; all you need is a blender or mini food processor to do the puréeing for you. The second is a quick dressing made with vinegar, soy sauce, scallions and ginger. Chewy wheat noodles, dressed first with the creamy tofu sauce and then drizzled with the vinegary sauce, are absolutely delicious and unexpectedly hearty.
I haven't totally recovered so I'm not in the mood for a major project just yet, but I do want to bake with my toddler, who's so ready to mix and pour. I was thinking that Claudia Roden's wonderfully simple yogurt cake, made with thick Greek yogurt, would be perfect. We'll have it with a pile of fresh fruit tossed with lemon zest, juice and a spoonful of sugar — something sweet we can slowly carve away for a few days.

Chanel Launches Recycling Business and France Targets Fast Fashion in This Week's Top Fashion News
Chanelhas launched a new business called Nevold, which focuses on creating recycled materials from textile waste like fabric scraps and unsold items. This initiative, led by Sophie Brocart, aims to address resource scarcity, as climate change impacts luxury textiles like cashmere and silk — and the fashion industry's broader waste problem, extending beyond fast fashion to luxury conglomerates holding billions in unsold inventory. Nevold will operate as a business-to-business platform and encompasses three key entities: L'Atelier des Matières (Chanel's textile recycling company), Filatures du Parc (a wool spinning mill specializing in recycled yarns), and Authentic Material (a leather recycling firm). Chanel's goal is for Nevold to be a transformative force, fostering a more circular economy by developing new materials from waste, not just for Chanel's own use, but for other companies as well. France's Senate recently approved a revised bill to regulate fast fashion, aiming to curb its environmental damage. This legislation could ban advertising for ultra-cheap online retailers like Shein and Temu, which are criticized for promoting excessive consumption of disposable clothing. The updated bill, passed almost unanimously, imposes stricter penalties on fast fashion companies that don't meet environmental standards, including potential fees per item. While European brands likeZaraface lighter restrictions, the move reflects a broader European push for waste management reform in the textile industry. However, the true test will be whether these measures can alter consumer behavior and demand for inexpensive, trendy attire Louis Vuittonhas forged a multi-year partnership withReal Madrid, becoming the official formal and travel wear supplier for their football and basketball teams. This unprecedented collaboration unites two global powerhouses, emphasizing shared values of excellence, legacy, and innovation. Designed by Pharrell, the exclusive wardrobe includes bespoke suits, ready-to-wear, and accessories for official appearances and travel. A custom travel line features iconic Louis Vuitton luggage adorned with Real Madrid's white-and-gold accents and 'RM' initials, created exclusively for the teams. This alliance extends Louis Vuitton's growing influence in elite sports, aiming to inspire by dressing the world's most decorated club in unparalleled style. Luxury labelCasablancahas launched its first physical store in Paris, located on Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré. The 5,000-square-foot boutique, spanning three levels, features a colorful design inspired by a deconstructed tennis court and draws on diverse influences from North African heritage to Japanese and Greek aesthetics. The vibrant space includes Carrara marble mosaic floors, an illuminated ceiling, and velvet finishes. Its lower level boasts plush green carpeting and modern transparent product displays. This opening marks a significant step for the 2018-born brand, which plans to expand with a Beverly Hills store in August, followed by locations in New York, Miami, London, Milan, and Dubai. For the first time,Zegnapresented its SS26 collection outside Milan, choosing Dubai for a more relaxed and vibrant runway show. Accompanied by James Blake's performance, the collection opened with lightweight, pre-wrinkled fabrics in desert hues, styled for a vacation mood with popped collars and sandals. The collection then transitioned to a 'verdant oasis' of greens, featuring tailored pieces in linens, wools, and silks with utility pockets and unique collars. The show concluded with a 'saturated sunset' palette of pinks, corals, and deep reds, showcasing Zegna's more expressive and youthful side, catering to Gen Z's preferences. Dubai was chosen as a key market, reflecting the region's growing luxury clientele and Zegna's significant sales in the EMEA region. Rowing Blazersand Tracksmith have re-teamed for a second limited-edition capsule collection inspired by running and rowing. The new line features tops, bottoms, and accessories that blend both brands' aesthetics. Key items include color-blocked rugby shirts with Tracksmith's hare motif, and racing singlets featuring Rowing Blazers' croquet stripe. The collection also offers cotton crewneck sweaters, canvas duffel bags with dual branding, and a reimagined version of Tracksmith's Eliot Runner shoe, incorporating Rowing Blazers' signature stripe and materials inspired by New England landscapes.

How Patrick Schwarzenegger spends his 5 to 9 — from getting 10,000 steps to eating Japanese sweet potatoes
Like his "White Lotus" character Saxon Ratliff, Patrick Schwarzenegger is a lover of smoothies determined to match his parents' stratospheric success. While his arrogant and shallow character rubbed many viewers the wrong way, Schwarzenegger, however, is nothing but charming as we chat on the phone while he gets his steps in around LA. "I walk and talk," he explains. I've discovered there are parts of Schwarzenegger's routine that Saxon would be positively allergic to, such as heading to the beach with his fiancée in the morning to say prayers and share a moment of gratitude. For the latest installment of Business Insider's "5-9" series, which Schwarzenegger took part in to promote Venmo's new debit card, the 31-year-old actor shared how else he spends the hours of the day when he's not working. What time do you usually get up, and what's your morning routine? I've gone to a new state or country every week since "The White Lotus" came out, so it's been a whirlwind of not having a routine and waking up at the most random times. This is my first full week in LA since the start of the year, and it's been great. I got up today at 6.15 a.m. — I never set an alarm clock, but I always wake up around 6 a.m. My fiancée and I went on a walk for our coffee and then down to the beach to say our gratitude and prayers. Usually, I'd work out after, but I didn't today as my fiancée had to go to the airport. So we made some breakfast, I had a sauna, and then went to the office. What do you have for breakfast? This morning, I had egg bites and Greek yogurt with berries, which is what I have on most days: eggs, Greek yogurt, fruit, or oatmeal. I try to get 40 to 50 grams of protein and some sort of carbs and fat. Do you eat before or after working out, or both? Afterward, if I'm working out really early in the morning, but sometimes I'll have something light before, like some fruit and nuts or peanut butter and banana. Much has been made of your character's love of smoothies on "The White Lotus." Are you a fan? Oh yes, I am. I used to drink smoothies all the time. Now I don't drink them as much, but I do love them. This conversation is actually making me want to go get a smoothie. If I'm gearing up for a role or a project and I need to gain weight, then I will bring in the smoothies because they help me get a lot of calories quickly. So I do love a peanut butter banana smoothie. The best combo. Tell me more about your approach to working out. I work out in the mornings when I can and try to get my 10,000 steps in too. Are you walking now? I am. I walk and talk. I try to do five days of lifting a week, and some sort of cardio. I stay pretty active. Do you follow a particular workout split? I usually do a push day, pull day, and leg day, or a more cardio-focused full-body day. Sometimes I do typical weight training, other days more high-intensity interval style. What are your recovery essentials? Food, sleep, and hydration are the main things. I love the sauna, the jacuzzi, and massages, but they're less important. When you're not working, how do you relax and have fun? Working out is fun for me. It is part of my daily life and what I like to do, and I feel better. And the same with my eating. I also like going on walks, hanging with my friends and family, hiking, biking, and watching movies and TV shows. I love cooking and baking and finding new coffee shops, and I use my new Venmo debit card for all of it. What do you like to have for dinner, and who cooks? I would get in trouble if I said I always cook dinner. Abby cooks most of the time. I cook breakfast pretty much every morning, although she made the egg bites today. We go out frequently, but try to cook as much as possible when we're in town because we're not often here. What's your favorite thing to cook? We cook sweet potatoes every night. We love Japanese sweet potatoes. We also make a lot of eggs and pancakes. Abby makes a really good chicken salad. She makes a bunch of good stuff for me. Lucky you. I know, seriously. So what's your ideal evening when you're at home? Well, last night Abby and I went and did a workout together. We did this hot Pilates class, and then we picked up some food, made dinner, had a little dessert, went on a walk afterward for the sunset, then watched a movie. If it's a date night, we go out, get some cocktails, and have fun. Do you have a favorite cocktail? I've been on a martini kick in recent years. Nice. Do you have a nighttime routine? No, I don't really. I kind of just get in bed, and I'm usually pretty tired from the day. I try not to watch TV in the bedroom, and I fall asleep pretty easily at around 10 p.m. I try to get eight hours. I suppose when you're so active, you get into bed and you're exhausted. Yeah, exactly … I'm always out in the sun and walking around, and I sleep better. Read the original article on Business Insider
