","[Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Vermentino, Gavi]" 38269,"Coconut Macaroon Tart Sweet Shortcrust Pastry, recipe follows 3 eggs 8 ounces caster sugar (superfine) 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 5 ounces desiccated coconut (unsweetened shredded or ground coconut) 1 stick plus 1 tablespoon butter, melted Icing sugar (confectioners'), for dusting 7 ounces all-purpose flour, sifted 1 tablespoon icing sugar (confectioners') 7 tablespoons chilled butter, cubed 1/2 to 1 medium egg, beaten Instructions: This decorative tart goes well with ice cream and makes a good dinner party dessert. The coconut is naturally oily, which helps to preserve the tart for a few days. Make the Sweet Shortcrust Pastry, recipe follows, leaving to chill for 30 minutes before using.
Remove the paper and beans, brush with a little leftover beaten egg and return to the oven for 2 minutes. If there are any little holes or cracks in the pastry, just patch it up with any leftover raw pastry before you return it to the oven. Remove from the oven and set aside in the tin while you make the filling. The pastry can be baked a day in advance and kept covered until you need it.
For the filling: whisk the eggs, caster sugar and cinnamon together in a bowl. Add the desiccated coconut and the melted butter, and mix well. Pour the filling into the cooked pastry crust, and bake in the oven until it is golden brown and just set in the center, about 40 to 45 minutes. Cook's Note: Sometimes I turn the oven down to 325 degrees F, after about 30 minutes, if it has already turned a good golden brown and I don't want it any darker.
Remove the tart from the oven, and let stand in the pan for about 10 minutes before carefully removing and allowing to cool on a wire rack. Dust the tart with icing sugar to serve. Place the flour, sugar, and butter in a food processor and whiz or pulse briefly. Add half the beaten egg and continue to whiz. You might add a little more egg, but not too much as the mixture should be just moist enough to come together.
If making by hand, rub the butter into the flour until it resembles coarse bread crumbs. Then, using your hands, add just enough egg to bring the dough together. With your hands, flatten out the ball of dough, until it is about 3/4-inch thick, and then wrap in plastic wrap or place in a plastic bag, and leave in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or, if you are pushed for time, in the freezer for 10 to 15 minutes.

Puree in the food processor until smooth and set aside to cool completely.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Generously spray the back side of a baking sheet with cooking spray and set aside.
Put the chilled dough between 2 pieces of parchment. Roll out the dough into an 11-by-13-inch rectangle and 1/8-inch-thick (see Cook's Note). Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes. Remove the top piece of the parchment, to free it from the dough, then place it back on top. Turn the dough over and remove the top piece of parchment. Spread the fig mixture evenly over the dough.
Roll the dough into a log using the parchment as a guide (the dough is very soft and the parchment will make it easier to roll). Transfer the log to the prepared baking sheet, brush with the egg wash and coat with the sanding sugar. Cut 20 slits across the log, about 1/2-inch apart. Each slit should go about three-quarters of the way through the log so that it is still completely intact. Bend about a quarter of the log by turning some of the newly cut \tabs\ out so that the pinwheels of filling are facing up. Continue turning the \tabs\ out and bending the log until you have a ring. Butt the ends up against each other.

1 teaspoon mustard powder
3 pounds bone-in, English-cut short ribs
Braised Red Cabbage, recipe follows Cranberry 'Liquid Gold' Honey Mustard Sauce, recipe follows 4 slices thick bacon, cut into 1/2-inch pieces 1 red onion, thinly sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 head red cabbage, cored and sliced
1 apple, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2 cups chicken broth
1/2 cup apple juice
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 1/2 cups yellow mustard 1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup cranberry juice
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste or vanilla extract
Instructions: In a small bowl, combine the pepper, coriander, smoked paprika, salt, brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder and mustard powder. Rub the short ribs with the pastrami rub and let sit in the refrigerator, uncovered, at least 2 hours or up to overnight. The longer you can let them absorb the rub, the better the flavor will be. Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F. Place the ribs on a wire rack set in a baking sheet. Roast until the internal temperature reaches 200 to 203 degrees F and the ribs are fork-tender, about 4 hours. Serve with Braised Red Cabbage and Cranberry Mustard Sauce. In a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat, cook the bacon until crisp, about 5 minutes. Add the onions and season with about 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are translucent, 7 to 8 minutes. Add the cabbage, apple, broth, apple juice, vinegar and granulated sugar. Season with 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Cover and cook until tender, about 45 minutes. Combine the mustard, honey, vinegar, cranberry juice, pepper and vanilla in a small pot and bring to a simmer, whisking constantly. Lightly simmer until the mustard sauce thickens, 6 to 8 minutes.

" 38292,"Lemony Baked Alaska with Strawberries 2 to 3 pints lemon sorbet 6 tablespoons unsalted butter 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup sour cream
2/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 large egg
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup strawberries, hulled and quartered 1/4 cup sugar
4 large egg whites, at room temperature 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup London dry gin (or 151-proof rum)
Instructions: For the sorbet: Mash the sorbet in a 7- to 8-inch-diameter bowl, then form it into a dome inside the bowl. (You may use between 2 and 3 pints depending on the size of your bowl.) Smooth the top and cover with plastic. Freeze for 8 hours or up to overnight. For the cake: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Use 1 tablespoon butter to grease a 9-inch round cake pan. Melt the remaining 5 tablespoons butter in a small pot over medium heat, then let cool. Sift together the flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda in a medium bowl. Combine the sour cream, sugar, milk, vanilla and egg in another bowl. Whisk until smooth. Add the flour mixture to the sugar mixture in small batches, whisking as you go to avoid the formation of lumps. Stir in the melted butter and whisk until smooth. Add the chocolate chips and stir to blend. Transfer the batter to the greased baking pan, then gently tap the sides of the pan so it is evenly distributed. Place the pan in the center of the oven and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly, then use a knife to scrape around the sides of the cake pan and invert the cake from the pan onto a cooling rack, to cool completely. For the fruit: Stir together the strawberries and sugar in a medium bowl. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. For the meringue: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Whip the egg whites in a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment on medium speed until they gain volume, 2 to 3 minutes. Beat in the cream of tartar and the sugar, then whip until stiff peaks form and the whites are firm and glossy, 1 to 2 minutes more. Transfer the whites to a disposable pastry bag (or sealable plastic bag) fitted with a star tip. Assemble the dessert: When ready to serve, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Transfer the cake layer to a large, round, ovenproof serving platter. (You are building a dessert on top of this cake, so the platter should be larger than the cake.) Remove the sorbet from the freezer and run a paring knife around the edges. Fill a large bowl with warm water and gently lower the sorbet bowl into the warm water to loosen the sorbet. (Be careful not to let any water get into the sorbet bowl.) Invert the sorbet bowl onto the cake so the flat part of the sorbet lays on the cake and creates a sorbet dome. Working quickly, squeeze out the meringue in little spurts to cover the whole surface of the sorbet and cake with little egg white spikes. Have fun with it. Bake until the meringue hardens and browns slightly, 3 to 4 minutes. Spoon the fruit around the meringue, then pour the gin around the edges of the platter and carefully light the fruit liquid so it burns a ring around the dessert as you serve it. (Use extreme caution when igniting alcohol.)

Make the topping: Melt the colored candy melts in the microwave as directed. Assemble the cakesicles in batches: Add a little (about 1 tablespoon) melted candy melts to each pop mold (see box below). Brush the candy around the mold to cover completely. Slide a pop stick into each mold and chill until the candy hardens, about 10 minutes. Add a second coating of melted candy melts if needed.
Form 3 to 4 tablespoons of the crumbled cake mixture into a ball, then press into one of the molds, adding more cake mixture as needed to fill. Repeat to fill all the molds, then spread a layer of melted candy melts on top to seal it all in. Refrigerate until set, 15 to 20 minutes. Carefully remove each cakesicle from the mold and repeat with the remaining cake mixture and colored candy melts (remelt them if needed).
Melt the white candy melts in the microwave, then drizzle on the cakesicles. Decorate with sprinkles.

" 38322,"Pie Dough 1 1/2 sticks cold butter, cut into pea size pieces, plus extra for pie plate 1 cup all-purpose flour, plus extra for rolling Pinch kosher salt 3 to 4 tablespoons ice water Instructions: In the bowl of a food processor combine the butter, flour and salt. Pulse, pulse, pulse until the mixture looks like finely grated cheese. Add half of the ice water and pulse again. The mixture should start to come together to form a rough ball; if it still seems dry add the remaining water and pulse until it has formed a rough ball. Remove the mixture from the food processor to a clean work surface and form it into a disk. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. This can be done a few days in advance. When using the dough, remove it from the refrigerator 20 to 30 minutes before using to allow it to soften up a bit. Dust the dough and a work surface with flour. Using a rolling pin, roll the dough out evenly in all directions. In between rolls it is a good idea to rotate the dough a quarter of a turn and dust it lightly with flour if it feels tacky. This will prevent the dough from sticking to the work surface and help it to roll out evenly. Roll the dough into a circle about 1/8-inch thick. Lay the dough in a lightly greased 9-inch pie plate. There should be about a 1/2-inch of dough hanging over the sides of the pie plate. If there is more than that, trim it with a sharp pair of kitchen shears. Fold the dough underneath itself around the rim of the pie plate and pinch or crimp into desired shape. Fill the dough with desired filling and bake according to the recipe you are using or dock (poke holes all over the dough with a fork) and blind bake. To blind bake: Line the dough with foil and fill with pie weights, raw rice, or dried beans. Bake in a preheated 425 degrees F oven for 10 to 12 minutes, remove the foil and beans and bake for 2 to 3 minutes more. Remove the pie shell from the oven and cool.

" 38363,"Croissant French Toast with Soft Caramel Apples 3 large eggs 1/4 cup milk 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract Pinch ground cinnamon 1/2 cup sugar 3 tablespoons unsalted butter 6 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and cut in 1/2-inch-thick wedges 1/2 cup pure maple syrup 4 large croissants, halved lengthwise Confectioners' sugar, for dusting Ground cinnamon, for dusting Instructions: Make the batter for the French toast by whisking together the eggs, milk, vanilla, and cinnamon until evenly blended. Cover and refrigerate. Pay close attention while you make the caramel apples - put the sugar in a large dry skillet and place it over medium-low heat. Stir constantly with a wooden spoon until the sugar melts and begins to caramelize, about 5 minutes. Be careful; the sugar is really hot at this point. Still stirring, add the butter, which will foam a little. Once the sugar and butter become a caramel sauce, fold in the apple wedges. Now, because the apples are cooler than the sugar, the sugar may start to seize and harden, but don't freak out -- keep stirring, once the apples warm up the caramel will smooth out again. When the caramel sauce starts to form around the apples, pour in the maple syrup. Give it a stir and simmer for about 10 minutes until the apples are fork tender. Pull them off the heat and keep warm until you are ready to serve. For the French toast itself, warm the butter in a large non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. You probably will only be able to fit a couple of croissants in the pan at once, so prepare these in batches. Take a croissant half and quickly dredge it in the batter. The key word here is quickly; the croissants are very soft and will disintegrate if soaked in the batter. Lay the croissants in the pan, cut-side down, and cook for 4 to 5 minutes. Carefully flip them over with a spatula and brown the other side. The presentation is like a caramel apple sandwich - take the bottom half of the croissant and put it on a plate, spoon some of the caramel apples on top of that, and cover with the top 1/2 of the croissant. Dust with confectioners' sugar and cinnamon and serve. ","[Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling]

Place the finely chopped chocolate in a medium-size mixing bowl. Make a ganache by pouring the hot cream over the chocolate and letting it sit for 30 seconds to melt the chocolate, then slowly whisking until smooth and homogenous. Pour it on a clean baking sheet to allow it to cool. As it cools, it begins to set and thicken. Raspberry syrup: Place the sugar and water in a non-reactive 1-quart heavy-bottomed saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. The sugar should completely dissolve. Add the raspberries and allow it to return to a boil. As it boils, whisk thoroughly to break the raspberries and allow them to release their juices. This will cause the syrup to turn red. Remove from the heat. Prepare an ice bath and strain the syrup through a fine-mesh sieve into a medium-size bowl placed over the ice bath. Discard the seeds and any pulp. When the syrup is cool, add the framboise liqueur. (If added when hot, the alcohol will evaporate.) Store the syrup in a squeeze bottle or a bowl covered with plastic wrap until ready to use. To bake the Fontaines, place them on a baking sheet and bake until the phyllo wrapping begins to brown, 7 to 10 minutes. While these are baking, you can decorate the plate. You will need 6 phyllo triangles for each serving. Place 3 triangles in a circle in the center of each plate with the tips toward the edge. Place the whipped cream in a pastry bag fitted with a 1/4-inch star tip. Pipe a dollop (or rosette) of whipped cream between each triangle and top each dollop with a raspberry. Remove the Fontaines from the oven. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and center each on a plate, on top of the triangles. Stand 3 triangles on end to form a tower over the centered Fontaine. The raspberries will help support the triangles. Serve immediately. Jacques? tip: Always store phyllo dough well wrapped in the refrigerator to keep it from drying. If it dries, you will have to throw it away. If the phyllo is frozen, you will not be able to separate the layers. Let it thaw, covered, at room temperature. It comes rolled up and you will want to lay it flat. If you have any slight tears in a layer, you can still use it by ?gluing? it together with butter. If you tear a layer beyond repair, just throw it away. Prepare the cake: Use a 2-inch fluted round cutter to cut 12 small circles from the pound cake. The slices should be about 1/4 to 1/2-inch thick. Keep the cuts as close together as possible to avoid waste. Line the circles up in rows on a parchment paper-covered baking sheet and soak evenly with the raspberry syrup. To assemble the Fontaines: When the ganache has cooled to the consistency of toothpaste, scrape it into a pastry bag fitted with a 1/2-inch plain tip and top each cake circle with a layer of ganache. (I use a pastry bag because it is a clean, easy way to add the layer of ganache.) Place 6 raspberries on top of the ganache layer and press gently to anchor them in the chocolate. Place the baking sheet in the freezer for about 15 minutes to allow the ganache to harden slightly. Lay 1 sheet of the phyllo on your work surface. Keep the remaining phyllo dough covered with a clean kitchen cloth to keep it from drying. Use a pastry brush to brush melted butter over the entire surface of the phyllo sheet. It will be easier if you start by brushing one line of butter lengthwise down the center and then fill in by brushing top to bottom from the center toward each edge. Be sure to brush all the way to the edges, where the phyllo is the driest. Place the powdered sugar in a fine-mesh sieve and liberally sprinkle the buttered phyllo sheet with it. Cover with a second sheet of phyllo and repeat with the butter and powdered sugar. Use a sharp paring knife to cut the doubled phyllo sheets in half from top to bottom and from left to right. Place one raspberry ganache cake in the center of each section of phyllo. Fold each side of the phyllo over the cake from left to right and tuck under the edges. Lightly brush the top with melted butter and place on a parchment paper-covered baking sheet. Repeat these steps using four more phyllo sheets, until all of the cakes are wrapped. (At this stage, the Fontaines can be stored in the refrigerator for a few hours or in the freezer for up to 2 weeks if well wrapped in plastic wrap; to thaw, place in the refrigerator for one hour before baking.) To make the phyllo garnish (you should have the garnish ready before you bake the Fontaines): Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lay 1 of the remaining sheets of phyllo dough on a parchment paper-covered baking sheet. Use a pastry brush to spread about 2 tablespoons of the melted butter over the entire surface of the phyllo sheet, making sure to brush all the way to the edges. Using a fine-mesh sieve, liberally sprinkle the powdered sugar over the buttered phyllo. Cover with the remaining phyllo sheet and repeat with the butter and sugar. Use a sharp paring knife to cut the doubled phyllo in half lengthwise. Make diagonal cuts from the top to the bottom of each half to create thin elongated triangles (1 1/2 inches at the base and 4 inches tall). Bake until evenly golden brown, about 5 minutes. Stay at the oven and watch these carefully, because they burn very quickly after they brown. Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack. (Leave the oven on.) Use a small offset spatula or knife to loosen the triangles from the parchment paper once they have cooled. Be gentle, they are extremely fragile. To bake the Fontaines, place them on a baking sheet and bake until the phyllo wrapping begins to brown, 7 to 10 minutes. While these are baking, you can decorate the plate. You will need 6 phyllo triangles for each serving. Place 3 triangles in a circle in the center of each plate with the tips toward the edge. Place the whipped cream in a pastry bag fitted with a 1/4-inch star tip. Pipe a dollop (or rosette) of whipped cream between each triangle and top each dollop with a raspberry. Remove the Fontaines from the oven. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and center each on a plate, on top of the triangles. Stand 3 triangles on end to form a tower over the centered Fontaine. The raspberries will help support the triangles. Serve immediately. In French, fontaine means fountain. When I created these, I imagined the chocolate oozing when the dessert was cut like water rushes out of a fountain. The combination of raspberries and chocolate is a popular one, the bittersweet chocolate balancing the strong flavor of the raspberries. This dessert is filled with contrasts: warm/cold, acid/sweet, crunchy/smooth. The delicate crisp phyllo dough triangles create an architectural quality, giving the dessert an elegant height. It will be easiest if you make the ganache a few hours in advance and let it cool. If you put it in the refrigerator to cool, it will become too hard. Jacques? tip: Always store phyllo dough well wrapped in the refrigerator to keep it from drying. If it dries, you will have to throw it away. If the phyllo is frozen, you will not be able to separate the layers. Let it thaw, covered, at room temperature. It comes rolled up and you will want to lay it flat.

Use a sharp paring knife to slice the rope into 1-inch long slices. Use your palms to roll the slice into an oval shape. Dip your fingers into cornstarch and pinch 1 end of the oval to mold the tail of the dove's body. Pinch the other end to make the head and beak. Use the back of the paring knife to score and fan the tail section. Push the tail up toward the body to give the sculpture a little more flair. To make the wings: Place a small piece of marzipan into a zip-lock plastic bag. Use a rolling pin to roll the marzipan into a 3-inch diameter circle that is about 1/8-inch thick. Remove the rolled marzipan from the plastic bag and place on the work surface. Use the paring knife to cut oval shapes that are pointed on each end. Cut 2 pieces for each bird. Adhere the wings to the body. The finished bird is about 1 to 1 1/2-inches long. Jacques' tip: The marzipan can be colored by adding a few drops of food color. Work the color into the marzipan by folding it into itself. Make the gelatin: Place the water and sugar in a saucepan. Use a rolling pin to bruise the lemon grass. Place the lemon grass in the water. Add the gelatin. Bring to a boil. Strain the mixture. Let the gelatin cool but not harden. Place the gelatin into an automatic funnel. It is easier to use a funnel than cup with pour spout because you can control the flow of the gelatin as you add it to the mold. Pour about 1/4-inch thick layer of gelatin into bottom of the mold. Let harden. Place the marzipan doves on top of the gelatin layer. Use the automatic funnel to add more gelatin to the mold. Fill so the gelatin covers the backs of the birds but does not cover them completely. Place the gelatin in the refrigerator and let it set. When firm, remove from the refrigerator, fill the mold completely, and return to the refrigerator. Unmold the gelatin. Use a chef's knife dipped in hot water to cut the gelatin into squares. Place the gelatin square on top of the Lemon Rice shortbread cookie. Serve immediately. Place the butter, cake flour and rice flour in a medium-size mixing bowl. The rice flour will make the cookie crisper and more crumbly because it does not contain any gluten. Use an electric mixer set on medium speed to beat the mixture just until combined. Add the salt, lemon zest and sugar, mix just to combine, add the eggs, mix until dough hold together. Remove the dough from the bowl and pat into a disk. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before using. This will give any gluten that may have developed a chance to relax. If you use the dough immediately after making it, it may be tough and elastic. The dough will keep, well wrapped in plastic wrap in the refrigerator for 1 week or in the freezer for 1 month. Thaw the dough in the refrigerator until ready to use. If you want to store the dough already rolled into a tart pan, wrap it in plastic wrap. Marzipan Dove Wagashi: When you are ready to use the dough, remove it from the refrigerator and give it 4 or 5 quick raps with a rolling pin. This softens the cold butter. Use a 2-inch plain cutter to cut the dough into cookies. Place on a parchment paper lined baking sheet and bake in a preheated 375 degree F oven until lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Allow the cookies to cool.

" 38447,"Pizza Wreath 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 2 cloves garlic, minced 1/2 small yellow onion, finely diced One 14.5-ounce can whole peeled tomatoes, crushed well 1 1/2 cups loosely packed fresh basil leaves Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper 1/2 pound sweet Italian sausage, casings removed
Two 1-pound balls refrigerated pizza dough, at room temperature All-purpose flour, for dusting 1/2 cup sliced pepperoni, roughly chopped 1 cup (about 4 ounces) shredded mozzarella
1 large egg, beaten Pinch of crushed red cl flakes
Instructions: Set a pizza stone or an inverted baking sheet on a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Invert another baking sheet and line it with parchment paper; set aside. Add 1 tablespoon of the oil, then the garlic and onion to a small saucepan over medium heat and cook until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Add the crushed tomatoes, 1/2 cup basil leaves, 1 teaspoon salt and few grinds of black pepper and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer the sauce, uncovered, until the flavors are concentrated and the sauce has thickened, about 25 minutes.
While the sauce cooks, add the remaining tablespoon oil to a small saute pan over medium heat. Add the sausage and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned in spots and completlety cooked through, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat to cool. Roll out and stretch the dough into two 12-inch rounds on a lightly floured surface. Use a 3-inch round biscuit or cookie cutter and punch a hole in the center of each round to make rings. (Set aside the holes.)
Put one of the rings onto the parchment-lined baking sheet. Spoon all but 1 tablespoon of the sauce on one dough ring in an even layer.Sprinkle over the sausage, pepperoni and all but 1 tablespoon of the mozzarella, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edges. Gently place the other dough ring directly on top, and pinch the edges to seal in the filling. Use a paring knife, cut 1- to 1 1/2-inch-wide strips into the wreath all around, like rays of the sun. (Be careful not to cut all the way through to the center; the wreath should stay intact and hold its shape once it is baked. You should have about 24 strips total.) Gently turn each strip twice to create a twist, then press the edges down on the parchment. Repeat this motion until all of the strips have been twisted. To make a bow, roll out and stretch the two dough cut-out holes into 6-inch long rectangles. Top one with the remaining tomato sauce and mozzarella. Place the other dough rectangle directly on top and press to seal the edges. Twist the dough with both hands in opposite directions for one full turn to form a bow that will hold its shape. Press the edges down to seal and set the bow on the prepared baking sheet next to the wreath. In a small bowl, whisk the egg with a few drops of water. Use a pastry brush to brush the bow and wreath with the egg wash, and sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Place the baking sheet with the wreath on top of the preheated stone and bake until the bow is cooked through and golden brown, about 20 minutes. Remove the bow and continue to bake the wreath until golden brown, firm to the touch and cooked through, about 25 minutes more. Chop the remaining cup fresh basil. Position the bow on the bottom of the wreath, sprinkle basil all over the wreath and top with a pinch of crushed red cl flakes.

Place the sausage links in a skillet and begin to brown slowly, over low heat, partially covered with a lid. They should cook in about 20 minutes. Put 6 quarts of water in a pot to cook the pasta. Bring the water to a boil and add 2 tablespoon of salt. Add the pasta and cook according to package directions. When the pasta is nearly cooked add the rabe to the sausage along with the red pepper flakes. Toss the rabe and sausage together and cover the pan again. Drain the pasta, reserving 1 cup of the cooking water, and put the pasta back into the pot along with the olive oil Set it over low heat and cook for a moment before pouring the pasta into a serving bowl. Top with the sausage and rabe and plenty of grated cheese and ground black pepper. The reserved water may be used to moisten the dish if necessary. Trim the meat of all gristle but remember to not trim too much fat as the mixture should be approximately 80 percent lean to 20 percent fat. Cut the meat into chunks and pass through a meat grinder using the largest die. Pass the meat through again, this time using the medium die. Pass the sausage meat through one more time on this medium die. In a large bowl mix the ground meat with the water, salt, pepper, fennel seed, cheese and parsley. Wash the casing well under cold running water and allow water to run through the casing so that any holes may be detected. Fit the grinder with the sausage stuffing attachment and place the casing over the stuffing tube by feeding it on and bunching it up on the tube.. Place the meat in the hopper on top and begin to push the sausage meat down into the hopper so that it begins to feed into the casing. As the meat feeds into the casing, allow the casing to slide into your open hand. Catch the stuffed sausage as it comes out of the machine. Go at a slow and steady pace so that the sausage is fully, evenly, stuffed and without air pockets. To make individual links, twist the sausage every few inches as it is stuffed and let the finished ring of sausage lay on the work space as you finish the process. Continue until the meat is finished. Keep refrigerated and use with in one week or freeze for later use. Yield: approximately 5 pounds finished sausage c.

1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
Vegetable oil, for the pan
Instructions: Add the milk, eggs, flour, sugar, vanilla and salt to a blender. Puree on high speed until completely smooth and slightly thickened and creamy, about 1 minute. Add the melted butter and puree until incorporated, 30 seconds more. Let the batter rest in the blender carafe for at least 1 hour at room temperature or refrigerate up to 24 hours. The longer you allow the batter to rest and hydrate, the lighter and softer the texture of the crepes will be; overnight is ideal. Before cooking, re-blend the batter at high speed for 30 seconds. This will reincorporate the ingredients, a vital step in getting an even golden color on the crepes. Wipe 1/2 teaspoon of oil on a large crepe pan or a 10-inch nonstick skillet with a paper towel. You don't want to see any drops of oil in the pan, just coat with the thinnest layer. Heat the pan over medium heat until hot.
Ladle 1/4 cup batter into the pan. Working quickly off the heat, swirl and shake the pan to evenly coat the bottom with the batter. Return to the heat and cook the crepe, reducing the heat if it's browning too quickly, until the edges are light golden, about 2 minutes. Slide a spatula underneath to loosen the crepe and carefully flip it over. Cook on the other side until a few brown spots appear, 15 to 30 seconds. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with the remaining batter, wiping pan with oil each time. Stack the crepes on the plate as you go (you should have about 15 total). Let the crepes cool for 10 minutes before serving or filling.
For fillings, we suggest Nutella and bananas or peanut butter and jelly for sweet crepes. Ham and cheese makes a great filling for savory crepes.

Instructions: For the cupcakes and frosting: Add the butter to a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment and beat on medium speed for 2 minutes. Add half of the confectioners' sugar and beat on low until incorporated. Beat in the remaining confectioners' sugar until incorporated. Increase the speed to medium high and add the milk, vanilla and salt; beat until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Transfer half of the frosting to a medium bowl. Divide the remaining frosting among 6 small bowls. Add 3 drops of the pink food coloring to one small bowl of frosting and mix until combined. Repeat with each of the remaining 5 colors--blue, red, yellow, green and turquoise--and small bowls of frosting.
Transfer each color of frosting (including the plain frosting) to its own disposable piping bag and snip off the tip. Have ready 6 additional empty disposable piping bags.
To make a two-toned swirl, fit one of the empty piping bags with a large round tip. You'll be neatly filling half of the bag with vanilla frosting and half of it with one of the colored frostings. First, pipe a thick stripe of vanilla frosting directly onto the inside wall of the empty piping bag, starting the stripe inside the tip and pulling it up several inches. Second, pipe a thick stripe of colored frosting starting inside the tip and pulling it up several inches on the opposite wall of the piping bag. Twist the top of the two-toned bag until the colors just join, then pipe it onto 2 of the cupcakes using a spiral motion. Remove the large round tip, wash and dry it thoroughly and fit it into the next empty piping bag. Repeat with the remaining vanilla frosting and colored frosting, washing and drying the piping tip thoroughly between colors and piping each two-toned color frosting onto 2 cupcakes.
For the Aurora cupcakes: Top the pink and white frosted cupcakes with gold sanding sugar. Arrange 1 pink and 1 white flowers on top of each.
For the Elsa cupcakes: Evenly top the blue and white frosted cupcakes with the snowflake sprinkles and rock candy.
For the Ariel cupcakes: Arrange 2 purple shells on the center of each red and white frosted cupcake to create Ariel's bikini top. Arrange a handful of green pearls along the bottom of each cupcake to hint at the top of her tail.
For the Belle cupcakes: Place a rose in the center of each yellow and white frosted cupcake and arrange the white pearls around it.
For the Tiana cupcakes: Top each green and white frosted cupcake with a gold crown sprinkle and 2 eyeballs below it.
For the Jasmine cupcakes: On the center of each turquoise and white frosted cupcake, arrange a gold triangle, blue jewel and second gold triangle in a line.

Lightly brush an 11-by-17-inch rimmed baking sheet with vegetable oil and line with parchment paper. Brush the parchment with oil and dust with flour, tapping out the excess. Whisk the flour, 3/4 cup granulated sugar, the malted milk powder, cocoa powder, baking soda, cinnamon, allspice and nutmeg in a medium bowl; set aside. Beat the egg whites in a large bowl with a mixer on medium speed until foamy, 1 to 2 minutes. Increase the mixer speed to medium high and gradually add the remaining 2 tablespoons granulated sugar; continue beating until stiff shiny peaks form. Set aside. Beat the vegetable oil, egg yolks and milk in a separate bowl with the mixer on medium speed (no need to clean the beaters). Reduce the speed to low and beat in the flour mixture until just combined. Fold one-third of the beaten egg whites into the batter, then fold in the rest until incorporated. Pour the batter onto the prepared baking sheet and spread evenly with a rubber spatula. Bake until the cake pulls away from the sides of the pan and springs back when lightly pressed, 12 to 14 minutes. Dust the cake with the confectioners' sugar and spread a large clean kitchen towel (not terry cloth) on top. Invert a cooling rack onto the towel, then invert the cake onto the rack; peel off the parchment. Roll up the cake and towel together, starting from a long side to form a 17-inch-long roll. (You'll remove the towel later.) Set aside on the rack to cool completely. Make the frosting: Combine the granulated sugar and 3/4 cup water in a small saucepan and bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve. Cook over medium heat, without stirring, until a candy thermometer registers 240 degrees F, 20 to 30 minutes. (Brush any sugar crystals off the side of the pan with a wet pastry brush.) When the sugar has almost reached 240 degrees F, beat the egg and egg yolks in a stand mixer with the whisk attachment on high speed until thick and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Reduce the speed to low and slowly pour in the sugar syrup between the whisk and the side of the bowl. Increase the speed to high and beat until the bowl is cool to the touch. Remove the whisk and fit the mixer with the paddle attachment. With the mixer on medium-high speed, gradually add the butter and beat until thick and glossy. Combine the malted milk powder, vanilla and 1 teaspoon water in a small bowl; beat into the frosting along with the nutmeg. Unroll the cooled cake and spread with 1 1/2 cups of the frosting.

1 head garlic, halved crosswise
3 sprigs mixed fresh herbs (thyme, rosemary and sage)
1/4 cup olive oil
Instructions: Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Sprinkle generously with at least 4 teaspoons salt all over the outside of the bird and inside the cavity. Let the chicken sit at room temperature for 1 hour to allow the salt to penetrate. Or you can refrigerate it, uncovered, up to 1 day ahead. Set a wire rack inside a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet. Position a rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F.
Toss the lemon wedges, garlic and herbs with 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl. Stuff the lemons, garlic and herbs in the cavity of the chicken. Tie the legs together with kitchen twine and tuck the wing tips underneath the back. Transfer the chicken to the prepared baking sheet. If you refrigerated the chicken, let it sit at room temperature 30 minutes to 1 hour before roasting.
Just before roasting, brush the oil over the entire outside of the chicken (but don't worry about the bottom), making sure to get into all the nooks and crannies so they evenly brown. Roast the chicken, rotating the baking sheet after 35 minutes, until the skin is golden brown and crispy and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast registers 155 degrees F, 70 to 80 minutes (the temperature will climb to 165 degrees as the chicken rests).
Let the chicken rest on the baking sheet for 20 minutes (do not tent with foil or the chicken will overcook and the skin will get soggy).
Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and discard the lemons, garlic and herbs. Carve into serving pieces.

I didn't have may own baking oven so had to use the ones on our very busy hot line. It was a trick just to keep the guys (cooks) from changing the temperatures on my ovens because they always last them to 500. And then to get them to move so I could kneel in front of the ovens to juggle the cakes around...forget it. So I'd have to yell out \ROTATE!\ and get everyone away from the oven while I kneeled in front of them to do the rotation ballet of hot shimmying cheesecakes with dry towels (a hot commodity in kitchens). My knees on my chef's pans were always dirty and that was why. ","[Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling]

Mix well and let stand in a warm place about 15 minutes for the yeast to activate. In a small saucepan, warm 1/4 cup of the olive oil with the rosemary and lemon zest. Add the grapes and raisins, mix well then add 1/2 to the yeast mixture. Mix another 1 cup flour into the yeast mixture with the dough hook attachment. Knead until smooth. With machine running, add the salt and remaining 3 cups flour, 1 cup at a time, kneading until smooth after each addition. Knead another 6 minutes after the addition of the last cup of flour. The dough should remain rather wet to ensure a soft and light bread. Shape the dough into a ball on a floured board and put it in an oiled bowl. Cover with a damp towel and allow to rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk about 45 minutes. Punch dough down and lightly sprinkle work surface with flour. Turn out dough and knead lightly. At this point, dough may be wrapped and frozen. To bake, preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Oil an 11 by 17-inch baking sheet. Press dough down into a flat disk with the heel of your hand. Using your fingertips, nudge the dough into a rectangle. The dough can be rolled but the pressure will produce heavier bread. Transfer the dough to the baking sheet and brush with the remaining olive oil. Let rise again until doubled, 30 to 40 minutes. Make indentations all over the dough by pressing with your fingertips being careful not to puncture all the way through the dough. Bake 15 minutes then remove from the oven and brush with the egg. Sprinkle with the remaining grape mixture then the remaining sugar. Finish with some coarse salt. Return to the oven and continue to bake until golden brown on top and crisp on the bottom, about 10 minutes. Let cool in the pan before cutting.

Remove, place in a bowl, run cold water over it, and allow to stand for several minutes. Remove, dry with paper towels, and cut 2 tablespoons of fat into 1/8-inch dice. Reserve. Place the shrimp in the bowl of a electric mixer. Start the mixer and add, mixing thoroughly after each ingredient, the salt, sugar, egg white, tapioca flour, oyster sauce, sesame oil, and white pepper. Add the pork fat, water chestnuts, scallion, and bamboo shoots. Combine evenly and thoroughly. Remove the mixture, place in a shallow dish, cover, and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight. To make the dough, in the bowl of an electric mixer, place the wheat starch, tapioca flour and salt. Start the mixer and add the boiling water. (If an electric mixer is unavailable, mix by hand in the same order, pouring water with 1 hand, mixing with a wooden spoon with the other.) Add the lard and mix thoroughly. If the dough is too dry, add 1 teaspoon boiling water. Continue to mix until a ball of dough is formed. Remove from the bowl, knead a few times, and divide into 4 equal pieces. Place each piece in a plastic bag to retain moisture. To prepare the dumplings, before working the dough, oil the work surface. Soak a paper towel in melted pork fat or peanut oil and repeatedly run a clever blade across it so that the blade stays oiled. Roll each piece of dough into a cylinder 8 inches long and 1-inch in diameter. Cut into 1/2-inch pieces. Work with one and keep the others covered with plastic. Roll each into a small ball and press down with your palm to flatten it. Press flatter with the broad side of the oiled cleaver to create a round skin 2 1/2 inches in diameter. To form the dumplings, place 1 1/2 teaspoons of the filling in the center of each round and fold in half, forming a crescent or half moon.

1 1/2 sticks (12 tablespoons) very cold unsalted butter, cut into 1-inch cubes 1/4 cup very cold or frozen vegetable shortening, cut into 1-inch cubes
6 to 8 tablespoons ice cold water
Instructions: Combine the apples, strawberries, sugar, lemon juice and cornstarch in a large bowl and gently toss together until combined. Set aside. Line a large work surface with parchment paper and lightly flour the paper. Roll out one ball of Pie Dough into a 12-inch circle. Gently roll the dough up around your rolling pin and transfer it to a 9-inch pie plate. Unroll the pastry over the plate. (Alternatively, fold the pastry in half and then again in quarters, transfer to the pie plate and unfold.) Gently fit the pastry into the plate and up the sides. Tuck the edges under the side of the pie plate and trim.
Transfer the apple/strawberry mixture to the lined pie plate and evenly distribute. Place the filled pie plate in the fridge while you complete the next step.
For the woven basket: Roll out a ball of dough to a 14-by-10-inch rectangle. Use a ruler and a sharp knife to cut fifteen 14-by-1/2-inch-long strips of dough. Braid three of the pastry strips together. Your finished braid will be approximately 10 inches long. Repeat this process with the other strips until you have five braids.
Remove the pie from the fridge. Use your ruler to measure 3 1/2 inches up from the bottom of the pie plate and mark the edge of the pie. Dampen around the edges of the bottom half of the pie with water to ensure that the pastry will adhere. Gently transfer one braid to the pie to cover your mark. Add the other four braids one at a time, moving down the pie and slightly overlapping the rows, until all five braids are in place. Use your knife to trim any excess braid to 1 inch beyond the edge of the pie. Tuck the excess pastry under the rim of the pie plate.
For the basket handle: Using leftover dough from your braid rollout, roll out four pieces of dough to approximately 12 inches in length and 1/2 inch in diameter. Twist two pieces of the dough together to make a rope. Repeat this process for the other two pieces of dough. Dampen the edge of the top half of the pie with water and attach one rope to each side of the pie. The ropes should meet at the top center of the pie. Curl the bottom of each rope decoratively around the basket edge.
To create the Easter eggs: Roll out another ball of dough to a 14-by-10-inch rectangle. Cut five egg shapes with a 3-inch egg cutter. To color the dough, use either gel or liquid food coloring mixed with a small amount of water. Apply with a small paint brush (available in craft stores). Paint each egg a different color (pastel or jewel tones work best). To add sparkle to your eggs, after painting and while the dough is still slightly damp, sprinkle each egg with a coordinating colored sanding sugar. Set aside to dry.
To create the Easter bunnies and bow: Cut three bunny heads with a 3-inch bunny head cutter from the same batch of dough. Use a 3/4-inch round cutter to cut six circles. Use a 1-inch diamond cutter to cut six diamonds. Use a ruler and sharp knife to cut one strip of pastry, 16 inches by 1/2 inch. Cut an inverted v-shape into both ends of the strip. Cut another strip of pastry, 1 inch by 1/2 inch.
Using small pieces of dough, roll nine balls of dough for the eyes and noses. Use pink food coloring to paint the six diamonds, three of the small round balls and the two strips of pastry. Use black food coloring to paint the remaining six small round balls. To assemble the bunny: Dampen the back of the diamond shapes with water and place them in the center of the bunny ears. Dampen the circles and place two circles along the cheek line of each bunny's face. Dampen the space above the cheeks of each bunny and place the eyes and nose. Use your knife to score three lines on each cheek to create the whiskers.
To assemble the bow: Lay the longer strip of pastry in front of you horizontally. Mark the center of the pastry with a knife. Fold the left side of the strip in and down over the center. Fold in the right side so it criss-crosses over the left side. Pinch the pastry at the spot where the two pieces overlap in the center. Dampen the small strip of pastry and lay it over the area that you have pinched. Press gently to adhere.
To create the flowers: Use 1/2-inch and 1-inch flower cookie cutters to cut flower shapes for the front and handle of the basket. Paint the flowers in colors of your choice.
To assemble: Dampen the backs of the flowers and gently adhere them to the basket handle and front. Dampen the back of the bow and gentle adhere it to the front of the basket.
Position a rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place the Easter eggs and bunnies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake for approximately 10 minutes, or until the faces of the bunnies are slightly browned. Allow them to cool. Raise the oven temperature to 425 degrees F.
Bake the pie for 12 minutes. Then, reduce the temperature to 350 degrees F and bake until the pie is golden and the filling bubbles thickly, another 60 to 70 minutes. Let cool for at least 2 hours.
Use a spoon to gently depress the filling under the top edge of the basket. Slide the eggs partially under the top edge of the basket and arrange. Place the bunnies decoratively above the eggs.

1/4 cup gravy, chilled, plus warmed gravy, for serving 3/4 cup grated sharp Cheddar (about 3 ounces) 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan (about 1 ounce) 1 1/2 cups stuffing Cranberry sauce, for serving Instructions: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place a cooling rack on a rimmed baking sheet. Top with a 12-by-10-inch piece of parchment. Arrange the bacon slices horizontally on the parchment so they are overlapping to form a large rectangle the size of the paper. Bake until the bacon starts to shrink and render fat, about 20 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly. Increase the oven temperature to 450 degrees F.
Meanwhile, bring a small saucepan of salted water to boil. Drop the green beans in the water and cook for 2 minutes, then remove to a strainer and run a little cold water over the beans to cool. To assemble the roulade, spread the potatoes on the bacon blanket in a 6-by-10-inch rectangle, leaving a border of uncovered bacon on all sides. With the back of a spoon, make 2 long troughs lengthwise down the center of the potatoes, leaving space between and around the troughs. Spoon the gravy into the troughs (keeping the gravy chilled prevents it from running all over the potatoes). Sprinkle the gravy and potatoes with the Cheddar. Arrange the green beans 2 to 3 across in a thin line on top of the Cheddar, in between the gravy troughs. Sprinkle the Parmesan over the green beans and potatoes.
Form the stuffing into a 10-inch log; you can use your hands to shape it or spoon the stuffing onto a piece of parchment and tightly roll it into a log. Place the stuffing log down the center of the bacon rectangle. Working from one of the long sides of the bacon rectangle, grab the parchment and pull it up and over the stuffing. Use the parchment to help you roll it into a roulade, making sure it ends up seam-side down. Bake the roulade until the bacon is cooked and crispy, about 30 minutes.

Freshly ground black pepper 3 cups milk 2 cups chicken broth, homemade or low-sodium canned 2 teaspoons kosher salt 1 cup instant polenta 1/2 cup mascarpone cheese 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan Freshly ground black pepper Instructions: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Heat a large Dutch oven (preferably oval) or soup pot with a lid, over high heat. Add half the olive oil and heat. Pat the lamb shanks dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and pepper. Add 2 of the lamb shanks to the hot oil and brown on all sides, about 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer shanks to a plate. Repeat with the remaining olive oil and shanks. Add the garlic, celery, carrots and onions and to the pot, and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, about 8 minutes.
Meanwhile, use a vegetable peeler to strip the zest (just the orange skin, not the white pith underneath) from the orange in large pieces. Halve and juice the orange and set aside.
Add the red wine to the vegetables and stir with a wooden spoon, scraping up any browned bits that cling to the pot. Stir in the orange zest, currants, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil and cook until the wine is syrupy, about 5 minutes.
Cut a square of cheesecloth and place the parsley stems, thyme, bay leaves, cloves, cinnamon, juniper berries, peppercorns and star anise in the center. Tie into a bundle with kitchen twine. Add the spice bundle, chicken broth, orange juice and the shanks, along with any collected juices, to the pot, bring the mixture to a boil, cover, and transfer to the oven. Cook about 1 1/2 to 2 hours, turning the shanks occasionally, until the meat is just falling off the bone.
Transfer the shanks to a plate. Scoop the vegetables from the liquid using a slotted spoon and set aside. Boil the cooking liquid over high heat until thickened, about 15 minutes. Add the lemon juice, and season the sauce with salt and pepper, to taste. Return the shanks to the sauce and warm over medium heat, turning to coat evenly.
To serve, mound some of the polenta in the centers of 4 heated dinner plates. Top with a shank, and spoon some sauce and vegetables over and around the meat. Spoon a bit of Blood Orange Relish over each shank and serve immediately. Cut both ends from the oranges. Stand them on a flat end and cut away all of the peel and white pith. Quarter them top to bottom. Lay the wedges on their sides and slice them thinly crosswise. Slice the fennel crosswise into very thin slices.
Gently toss the oranges, fennel, apple, parsley, fennel seeds and vinegar together in a small bowl. Season with the salt and pepper. (This can be made a day ahead and refrigerated until ready to serve.) Bring the milk, chicken broth and salt to a boil in a large saucepan. Whisk in the polenta in a slow stream and cook, whisking constantly, until the polenta thickens, 3 to 5 minutes. When large bubbles begin to surface, remove from heat and stir in the cheeses and pepper. Taste and season with additional salt, if necessary.
