6 large eggs Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
6 frozen parathas (see Cook's Note)
3/4 cup peeled garlic 3/4 cup peeled, roughly chopped ginger
2 tablespoons avocado oil
2 tablespoons white balsamic vinegar
Instructions: Place the rack as close to broiler element as possible and preheat a pizza oven or standard oven to 475 degrees F. For the chicken: Stir together the ginger-garlic paste, paprika, garam masala, turmeric, dried fenugreek leaves, lime juice, 1 teaspoon kosher salt and a few grinds of black pepper in a large bowl. Add the chicken and, using your hands (I use a glove!), massage well into the chicken. Drizzle with enough oil to gently coat the chicken and massage again. Make sure the chicken is evenly coated with the marinade. At this point, you could refrigerate the chicken overnight to marinate. If you don't have time for that, let it sit for 20 minutes at room temperature. Place the chicken in a 14-inch cast-iron pan and slide into the oven under the broiler, if using a regular oven. Cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the chicken reads 155 degrees F, about 15 minutes. Turn the broiler on and cook until the top of the chicken is gently charred, about 5 minutes. Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes in the pan, then slice thinly. Set aside in a bowl, pour the pan juice over it and keep warm. For the salad: Add the fennel, fennel fronds, onions, lime juice and a hefty pinch of salt and toss to combine. Set aside to marinate for 10 to 15 minutes. Add the cilantro and a sprinkle of chaat masala if desired. Taste for seasoning and set aside. For the eggs: Set a medium nonstick pan over medium heat. Beat the eggs well, with a good pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside. Pull the paratha right out of the freezer and flop onto the pan. Cook on one side until gently browned, then flip and cook on the other side to the same level. Remove from the pan. Now pour about an egg's worth of egg mixture into the pan and immediately place the cooked paratha on top, twirling the paratha so the egg coats the surface. Cook until the egg is cooked through. Remove from the pan. To assemble, place a small handful of chicken down the middle of the egg-coated paratha. Perch some salad on top and sprinkle with another pinch of chaat masala if desired. Roll and serve immediately. Combine the garlic, ginger, oil and vinegar in a food processor bowl and process until smooth. Store in fridge for up to 2 weeks.

Line a baking sheet with the circles. Blow up 8 small balloons. Bring a few inches of water to a simmer in a medium saucepan. Place the chocolate in a heat-safe bowl over the simmering water and stir until the chocolate is melted. Remove the bowl from the heat and let the chocolate cool slightly. Dip a balloon into the chocolate so it covers the bottom and reaches 1 1/2 to 2 inches up the sides. Immediately place the balloon chocolate-side down onto one of the parchment circles. Repeat with the remaining balloons and chocolate. Let cool completely to set up, at least 1 hour. Pop the balloons with a pin and gently peel away any balloon pieces that adhere to the chocolate. Fill the chocolate bowls with the Coconut Easter Grass and decorate with Easter egg candies. Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place a mesh rack on top, if available. Put the coconut in a shallow bowl. While tossing with a large spoon, add the green and yellow food coloring drop by drop until the desired color is reached. A little more green than yellow makes a pretty grass color. Add a few tablespoons water to moisten the mixture and help disperse the color evenly. If the color is too dark, add additional water, as needed, to dilute to the desired color. Drain the coconut in a sieve or strainer. Spread the coconut in an even layer on the rack, or directly on the lined baking sheet. Place in the oven until dry, 10 to 15 minutes. The coconut grass can be kept in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. Note: Food coloring can be messy and stain your skin. To prevent this, wear latex gloves. You can also tint the coconut in a large resealable plastic bag, shaking it to color the coconut evenly. ","[Merlot, Pinotage, Tempranillo, Garnacha]

In a food processor, combine the sage, rosemary, the 5 garlic cloves, fennel seeds, olive oil, and salt and pepper and blend until a paste forms. (You can also mash these ingredients together with a mortar and pestle.)
Using a sharp knife, butterfly the pork butt, so it opens up like a book. (You can also have your butcher do this for you.) Rub the inside cut of the meat with the paste. Using kitchen twine, tie the butterflied pork back together to make a compact shape.
Place the halved garlic heads and potatoes, cut-sides down, on the bottom of a roasting pan to create a bed for the pork butt so it doesn't sit directly on the surface of the pan. Place the pork fat-side up on the bed of garlic and potatoes, drizzle lightly with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Place the pan in the oven and bake for 5 hours, or until the skin is browned and the meat is extremely tender; pour the wine over the pork after the first 30 minutes of roasting and baste the meat with the collected pan juices every 40 minutes.
Remove from the oven and let rest for 20 minutes. Remove the twine before cutting the pork into 12-inch-thick slices.
IMPORTANTE! After slow-roasting the pork, the garlic should be soft. Spread it on bread for an appetizer. Serve with Oven-Roasted Potatoes. The potatoes make for a nice cook's treat-snack on them while you're waiting for the pork to rest. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. On a baking sheet, place the potatoes, carrots, garlic, rosemary, and sage. Drizzle with the olive oil, season with salt and pepper to taste, and toss to coat. Roast for 50 to 60 minutes, tossing halfway through, until the potatoes are crisp and golden. Remove from the oven and serve. IMPORTANTE! To parboil and pan-roast these potatoes: In a pot, combine the whole potatoes with water to cover. Bring to a boil and cook for 15 minutes. Remove the potatoes from the pot and set them aside to cool. Cut the potatoes into 3/4-inch chunks and add to a large nonstick skillet with the carrots, garlic, rosemary, and sage. Dress with olive oil, salt, and pepper, and heat on high until the potatoes are crisp and golden, occasionally moving the potatoes by shaking the pan handle. Avoid stirring with a spoon or spatula, so that you don't break the skin, and the potatoes can achieve a nice sear.

" 39447,"Grilled Focaccia with Mozzarella Di Bufala, Sweet Italian Sausage, and Fresh Tomatoes 2 packages active dry yeast 2 teaspoon sugar 2 cups warm (100 degrees F to 110 degrees F) water 2 tablespoons kosher salt 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 6 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting 4 pounds sweet Italian sausage, links 2 pints red cherry tomatoes 2 pints yellow cherry tomatoes 3 garlic cloves, minced 1 bunch fresh basil 4 (8-ounce) balls of fresh mozzarella di bufala, drained Extra-virgin olive oil Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper 1 large bag fresh salad mix 1 chunk Parmigiano-Reggiano, (equal to 1 1/2 cups grated) Instructions: Begin by making the dough so it has time to rest and rise. In the bowl of a standing electric mixer fitted with a dough hook, or in a mixing bowl, combine the yeast, sugar and warm water and stir gently to dissolve. Let the mixture stand until the yeast comes alive and starts to foam, 5 to 10 minutes. If you're using a mixer, turn the mixer on low, add the salt and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add the flour, a little at a time, mixing at the lowest speed until the flour has been incorporated. When the dough starts to come together, increase the speed to medium and let it go until the dough gathers into a ball. This should take about 5 minutes. Stop the machine periodically to scrape the dough off the hook. Get a feel for the dough as you're making it by squeezing a small amount together between your thumb and fingers. If it's crumbly, add more water, if it's sticky, add more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and fold it over itself a few times, kneading until it's smooth and elastic. Form the dough into a round and put it into a lightly oiled bowl, turning it over to coat the dough entirely with the oil. Cover with plastic wrap or a damp towel and let it rise in a warm spot (i.e., over a gas pilot light) until doubled in size, about 1 hour. Preheat an outdoor gas or charcoal barbecue and get it very hot. Brush the grates with oil to keep the sausages from sticking. Grill the sausages until cooked through, turning with tongs. Set aside. Keep the grill hot to make the pizza. Roll or pat the dough into a rustic, oblong shape, about 1/4-inch thick - do this directly on a lightly floured pizza paddle for ease. Brush the crust with a thin layer of olive oil, and lay oil side down onto the hot grill. Once the dough looks set, in about 2 minutes, turn the crust over. Now prepare the topping. Cut up the tomatoes and add to a large mixing bowl. Add the garlic and basil. Crumble in the sausage. Rip the mozzarella into pieces with your hands and add that too along with some extra-virgin olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, add the salad mix and toss to combine. Once the crust is set and cooked, transfer it to a platter. Scoop up the salad mix in your hands and spread it evenly over the top. Sprinkle with a good dusting of Parmigiano-Reggiano and finish with a drizzle of olive oil.

In a small mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, Strawberry Jam and lemon zest. Fold in the blueberries. Place the mixture into a re-sealable bag. When you are ready to stuff the bread you will snip off a corner of the bag and pipe the filling in.

1/2 bunch cilantro, leaves chopped Instructions: Preheat a grill. Place the tomatillos, poblanos and serrano chiles on a baking sheet, then drizzle with 3 tablespoons of the oil and sprinkle some salt and pepper over the top. Place the tomatillos, poblanos and serranos directly over open flames on the grill and cook until the skins are charred and black all over, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer the poblanos and serranos to a large bowl, then cover the bowl with plastic wrap and steam for 2 to 3 minutes. In the meantime, place the tomatillos in a food processor and set aside. Scrape away the charred skins from the poblanos and serranos. Remove the stems and seeds, and roughly chop. Add to the food processor and puree until smooth, about 2 minutes. Set the verde sauce aside for later use. Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Trim the pork ribs of any excess fat and cube the chicken thighs into large bite-size, about 1 1/2-inch cubes. Sprinkle the pork and chicken with 2 tablespoons salt, the cumin and 1 teaspoon pepper. Place a paella pan or large saute pan over medium-high heat, add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and the chorizo and cook to crisp up and render the fat. Remove the chorizo to a baking sheet and add the pork ribs and chicken thighs to the paella pan. Cook until the pork and chicken turn golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Turn the meat over and cook until browned, 5 to 7 minutes, then transfer to the baking sheet with the chorizo. Add the onions and red bell peppers to the pan and saute until the onions are translucent, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the rice and garlic, and mix well until the rice is coated with oil. Cook until the rice smells nutty, 5 to 6 minutes. Add half of the broth and half of the verde sauce, and stir well to combine. Spread the rice evenly around the pan and return the chicken, pork and chorizo to the pan. Cook until the broth is absorbed, about 10 minutes, then add the remaining 3 cups broth. Once bubbling, cover with foil and transfer to the oven; cook until the rice is al dente, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove the foil, dollop the remaining verde sauce over the top and sprinkle with the lime zest and chopped cilantro to serve.

Coat four 8-inch round cake pans with cooking spray and dust with flour, tapping out the excess. (If you don't have 4 pans, make 1 box of cake mix at a time and use half of the food coloring in each batch.) Prepare the cake batter according to the package directions. Divide the batter among 3 bowls. Add the green food coloring to one, the pink to the next and the yellow to the last. Create a tie-dye pattern by randomly adding a quarter-cup scoop of different color batters to the pans, dividing the batters among the 4 prepared pans. Use a toothpick to swirl the colors. Tap to release air bubbles and bake, rotating the pans from top to bottom halfway through baking, until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean, 25 to 28 minutes. Let cool on a rack for 10 minutes, then remove from the pans and cool completely.
    For the buttercream: Beat the butter and salt in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and light, about 1 minute.

Wash your squash then carefully cut it in 1/2. Scoop out the seeds then pick through them and put some of the nicest ones in a small pan with a lug of olive oil. Get rid of the others and any stringy flesh. Fry the seeds until golden, then remove from the heat and keep to one side.
    Cut your squash halves into thin wedges and arrange in a roasting tray. In a pestle and mortar, bash up the fennel, coriander seeds, dried cl, oregano with 1 teaspoon salt and a pinch of pepper until fine. Tip these spices all over the squash then sprinkle over the cinnamon. Crumble the chestnuts directly into the tray, then drizzle with just enough olive oil to coat everything. Toss everything together with your hands then pop in the hot oven to cook for 40 to 45 minutes until beautiful, golden, and soft when you pinch it.
    Take the squash out of the oven and sprinkle over a pinch of salt from a height. Carefully tip the golden seeds into the tray, leaving the oil behind in the pan. Put your rosemary leaves on a board with a good pinch of salt and pepper and finely chop them. Roll your beef around on the board until it is well coated in the rosemary. Return your pan of oil to a high heat, and once it is screaming hot, add the beef. Sear it for about 1 minute to 1 minute 30 seconds so it browns, then turn it over and do the same on the other side.
    Meanwhile, make your dressing. Add the mustard, extra-virgin olive oil and lemon juice to a bowl and mix well. Have a taste and check the seasoning then put aside.
    Use a really sharp knife to slice the beef up as thinly as you can without hacking it up or ruining it! Go thicker to do it nicely if you need to. Carefully, push the flat blade of a knife over each slice of beef, flattening it so it spreads out more. Arrange the slices on a large platter and sprinkle over a pinch of salt (the seasoning won't have flavoured the centre of the beef).

6 large egg whites 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar Pinch of salt 1 cup granulated sugar Instructions: For the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 12-inch tart pan with removable bottom with some oil. Pulse the butter, sugar, salt and cookies in a food processor until combined. Firmly press the crumb mixture into the prepared tart pan (the mixture will come only halfway up the sides). Bake until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Let cool completely. For the filling: In a heavy saucepan, whisk together the sugar, cornstarch and salt. Add the milk and 1 cup water and continue to whisk until the cornstarch is dissolved. Cook over medium-high heat, whisking, until the mixture comes to a boil, 3 to 5 minutes; it will start to thicken to a custard-like texture. In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolks. Gradually mix the yolks into the thickened cornstarch mixture in the saucepan. Continue to whisk until combined, then remove from the heat. Whisk in the butter and lemon zest and juice. Let cool slightly, then whisk in the tequila. Cover the filling with plastic wrap and set aside. For the meringue: With an electric mixer in a large bowl, beat the egg whites with the cream of tartar and a pinch of salt until soft peaks form, 2 to 3 minutes. On slow speed, gradually add the sugar and continue to beat until stiff peaks form, another 1 to 2 minutes. Pour the filling into the tart pan and spread over the crust. Pipe dollops of the meringue with peaks all atop the filling in circles. Bake until the meringue peaks turn light brown, about 15 minutes. Let cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes. Chill the tart until completely set, about 1 hour.

4 1/2 cups confectioners\u2019 sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
White chocolate skulls, for decorating, optional
Instructions: For the Meringue Bones: Preheat the oven to 175 degrees F. Line 3 baking sheets with parchment paper. Fit a large pastry bag with a medium piping tip. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment or in a large bowl with a hand mixer, combine the egg whites, cream of tartar and salt. Whisk the whites on medium-high until they start to turn white. Very slowly add in the sugar. Whip the egg whites on high for another 4 to 5 minutes until glossy and stiff peaks form. Transfer to the prepared pastry bag. Pipe the meringue on the lined sheet trays into bone shapes varying in size from 3- to 5-inches-long. You should get about 40 to 50 bones. Place in the oven and bake for 3 to 4 hours or until completely dried and cooked through. You can break one in half to determine if they are dry all the way through and done. Remove from the oven and let cool. Store in an airtight container until ready to use. For the Cakes: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 6-inch and 10-inch cake pan with nonstick cooking spray. Prepare one box cake mix according to package instructions. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pans, filling them about halfway up the sides. Bake until a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean, 20 to 28 minutes. Let cool in pan for 20 minutes then remove and let cool on cooling rack. Repeat the process with the remaining boxes of cake batter so you have three 6-inch cakes and three 10-inch cakes. For Raspberry Blood Sauce: In a medium saucepan combine the raspberries, corn syrup and salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce heat to medium-low and let simmer for 6 to 8 minutes. Strain the cooked raspberries through a fine mesh strainer, making sure to press the raspberry pulp to extract as much of the raspberry liquid as possible. Discard the seeds. Let the sauce cool. Once cooled, the raspberry sauce should have the consistency of pancake batter. Whisk in the chocolate syrup to give it a slight darker color to make it resemble blood. Transfer to a resealable container and keep in the refrigerator until ready to use. For Cream Cheese Buttercream Frosting: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment or in a large bowl with a hand mixer, beat the cream cheese on medium until smooth and fluffy. Add the butter and continue to beat until light and fluffy, another 2 minutes. Add the sugar, one cup at a time. Add vanilla and salt and mix for another 15 seconds. The frosting is easiest to work with at room temperature. If you are not using it right away, transfer it to a reusable container and store in the refrigerator. When ready to use, let it sit on the counter for about an hour and then mix it up again in the stand mixer at medium-high speed until light and fluffy. To Decorate: Using a long serrated knife, slice the domed top off of each cake layer. Place one of the 6-inch cakes onto a 6-inch cardboard cake round. Using an offset spatula, spread some frosting on top of the cake and place the second 6-inch cake on top. Using a 3- to 3 12-inch round straight-sided drinking glass or round cutter cut out a circle from the center of the 2 stacked cakes and remove the inner cut layers. Crumb coat the cake by frosting it with a thin layer of frosting on all sides and inside the cut out well in the center. Use a little extra frosting inside the well to make sure it is completely coated and sealed. This is where you will add the raspberry blood sauce so it needs to be \watertight\u201d. Place the cake in the freezer for about 15 minutes to allow the frosting to harden. Place a 10-inch cake on a 10-inch cardboard cake round. Spread some frosting on top and place the second 10-inch cake on top and spread the top with frosting. Place the third cake, cut side down, on top of the second cake to form three layers. Crumb coat the cake by frosting it with a thin layer of frosting on all sides. Place the cake in the freezer for 15 minute to allow the frosting to harden. Spread some frosting on the cut side (where the dome was removed) of the third 6-inch cake layer. Remove the cakes from the freezer. Smooth out any imperfection in the frosting with your hands. Pour about 1 cup of the raspberry sauce into the well in the center of the layered 6-inch cake to fill it just to the top. Invert the third 6-inch cake layer on top, cut side down to enclose and seal the well. Frost the top layer with a crumb coat and place back in the freezer for 15 minutes to harden. Frost the 10-inch cake so it is completely coated and smooth. Remove the 6-inch cake from the freezer and frost it so it is completely coated and smooth. Carefully place the 6-inch cake on top of the 10-inch cake so that it is centered in the middle to form 2 tiers. Arrange the meringue bones upright around the outside of each tier of the cake. Decorate the top of the cake with more of the bones and any other edible Halloween decorations like white chocolate skulls. Slice the top tier and remove the slice to allow the bloody raspberry sauce core to pour down onto the bottom tier of the cake. Slice the rest of the cake and enjoy!

For charcoal grills, bank one chimney starter-full of lit and ashed-over charcoal briquettes to one side of the grill. Set up a drip pan on the other side to avoid flare-ups. (Be sure to consult the grill manufacturer's guide for best results.) Grill the pineapple over direct heat until golden on both sides, about 5 minutes per side. Let cool 5 minutes, then place on the cut side of one of the cheese halves. Place the other piece of cheese on top with the cut side touching the pineapple. Lay the prosciutto slices out on a work surface so they overlap in the middle and look like the spokes of a wheel. Put the cheese and pineapple round in the middle of the prosciutto and bring up one slice at a time to cover. The cheese and pineapple should be fully wrapped in prosciutto.
Grill over direct heat until starting to turn golden and crisp, about 3 minutes. Flip with a spatula and cook until golden and crisp on the other side, about 3 minutes. Move to indirect heat and cover the grill. Cook until hot throughout and gooey, 5 to 8 minutes more depending on your grill. Serve immediately with crackers and bread.

","[Rioja, Tempranillo, Garnacha]" 39533,"Caramel Souffle 2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) unsalted butter, melted 1/4 cup sugar 1 cup Creamy Caramel Sauce, recipe follows, at room temperature 3 large egg yolks, at room temperature 9 large egg whites, at room temperature Pinch of cream of tartar (less than 1/8 teaspoon) 1/3 cup sugar 1/4 cup water 1 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar 2 tablespoons light corn syrup 1/2 cup heavy cream, warmed to 100 degrees F 1/4 cup creme fraiche 1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice Pinch salt (less than 1/8 teaspoon) Instructions: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Adjust the rack to the lower third of the oven. Brush the inside of 8 (8-ounce) ramekins or 1 large souffle dish with melted butter and then lightly but completely dust the inside with sugar. Whisk together the caramel sauce and egg yolks in a medium bowl. This mixture is the souffle base. Using a standing mixer fitted with a whisk attachment or a hand mixer, whip the egg whites for about 30 seconds or until soft foam appears. Add the cream of tartar and continue to whip the whites for 2 minutes. Add the sugar and beat until the egg whites reach the medium-stiff peak stage. Using a rubber spatula, fold 1/3 of the egg whites into the caramel mixture to lighten the base. Fold in the remaining whites carefully so that the mixture is not deflated. The most efficient way to fold is to rotate the bowl and spatula simultaneously in opposite directions, one clockwise and the other counterclockwise. Spoon the souffle into the dish or dishes, filling them to the rim. Flatten the top with a metal spatula. Gently run a paring knife around the inner wall of the ramekin. This created a small wall of air between the souffle and the ramekin, which helps the souffle rise up straight. Place the souffles on a baking sheet. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes for individual souffles or 30 to 40 minutes for a large souffle. When finished, the souffles should be tall, golden brown, dry on the edges and a little creamy in the center. Serve immediately. Caramel sauce is perhaps the most versatile incarnation of caramel. Besides being both a hot and cold sauce, it makes a great filling for tarts and other pastries. It is also a major ingredient in some of my other recipes, such as truffles that I make with Caramel Ganache and Caramel Souffle. I always keep a variety of caramel blends refrigerated in my bakeshop. They last for weeks and are ready at a moment's notice to fulfill the inevitable special request. When I make creamy and clear caramels that have liquid added to them, I take the caramel to a high temperature, because I want a more, intense flavor that won't be diluted when the caramel is stretched. For example, you'll be heating the sugar to 375 degrees F in this recipe and you'll want to watch it carefully so it doesn't burn. Adding any liquid to hot caramel will cause it to bubble up like an eruption of molten lava. Using a pot that is at least twice the volume of the ingredients will prevent boil-over. Heating the liquid first reduces the volatility of this reaction but does not eliminate it, so be prepared. Oven mitts and a long-handled whisk are helpful, and don't stick your head or arms directly over the pot. It is important to remember that the steam rising out of a pot of hot caramel is as hot as the caramel inside, and nothing is as painful as a steam burn. Creme fraiche adds the perfect balance to this sauce, taming the sweetness with a touch of acidity. If you can't find it, and don't have time to make it, sour cream is a good substitute. I also balance the flavor of this sauce with a second addition of sugar and a little lemon juice at the very end. This adds another subtle dimension of flavor. Heat a saucepan of water and place a whisk in it. Wash and dry your hands thoroughly. Combine the water, 1 cup of sugar, and the corn syrup in a medium saucepan. Stir them together with very clean fingers, making sure no lumps of dry sugar remain. Brush down the insides of the pan with a little water, using your hand to feel for any stray granules of sugar. Cover the saucepan and place it over medium heat for 4 minutes. After 4 minutes, remove the lid, increase the heat to high, and bring to a boil. Do not stir from this point on. Keep an eye on the pan. It will be very bubbly. When stray sugar crystals appear on the side of the pan, brush them down with a wet pastry brush. As the sugar cooks, the bubbles will get larger. Insert a candy thermometer, and when the temperature reaches 300 degrees F, lower the heat to medium, which will slow the cooking. Continue to cook the sugar until it reaches 350 degrees F. It will be dark brown. Remove the pot from the heat and let it sit for 1 minute, or until the bubbles subside. Add the cream to the caramel. It will bubble up vigorously, so be careful. Vigorously whisk in the remaining 1 tablespoon sugar, creme fraiche, lemon juice, and salt. This sauce is now ready to be served warm or cooled to room temperature. It will keep stored airtight in the refrigerator for up to 1 month. When cold, it has the consistency of peanut butter.

Spray with nonstick baking spray and set aside. Cream the granulated sugar, butter, brown sugar and oil in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes.
Meanwhile, sift together the flour, cinnamon, cardamom, baking powder, ginger, nutmeg, salt and cloves in a medium bowl; set aside.
Beat the eggs into the butter mixture one at a time, beating and scraping down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula after each addition. Continue to beat until the batter turns pale yellow, about 5 minutes. Add the vanilla bean paste and mix to combine. Turn the mixer to low speed and alternate adding the flour mixture and buttermilk, starting and ending with the flour mixture and mixing each addition until just barely combined (be careful not to overmix).
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared cake pans (about 2 1/2 cups per pan); tap each pan on the counter to ensure the batter is spread out evenly. Bake, rotating the pans midway through, until the centers of the cakes spring back when gently pressed or a toothpick inserted in the centers comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool 15 minutes, then release the sides of the cakes by running a butter knife around the edges of each pan. Allow the cakes to cool completely before removing them from the pans. For the buttercream: Put the egg whites in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment. Beat on low speed until foamy, then turn to high and whip until it holds stiff peaks.
Combine the granulated sugar and 1 cup water in a small saucepan over medium heat. Attach a candy thermometer to the side of the pan and bring to a soft-ball stage, about 235 degrees F, without stirring, 8 to 10 minutes.
With the mixer on high speed, pour the sugar syrup in a stream along the side of the bowl into the egg whites. Beat until the bowl is just barely warm to the touch and the egg whites are shiny and form stiff peaks, 10 to 15 minutes. Add the butter one piece at a time, beating after each addition, until all the butter has been added. Turn the mixer to medium-high speed and beat until the buttercream is shiny and holds a peak when spooned upwards with a spatula, about 2 minutes. Turn to medium speed and beat in the espresso, cocoa, cinnamon and salt until just combined.
To assemble: Place a cake layer on a cake turntable and trim off the domed top using a serrated knife so the cake is level. Remove the cake layer and repeat with the remaining 2 cake layers. Spread a dollop of buttercream on an 8-inch cake board and place one of the layers on top, cut-side down. Place the cake board on the turntable. Scoop 1 1/2 cups buttercream on top of the cake layer. Use an offset spatula to spread the buttercream evenly across the top of the cake. Place the next cake layer on top, cut-side up. Top the second layer with 1 1/2 cups buttercream and spread evenly across the top of the layer. Top with the third cake layer, cut-side down. Spread 1 1/2 cups buttercream evenly over the top of the cake, allowing the buttercream to hang over the edge.
Use an offset spatula to smooth out the buttercream on the sides of the cake. If there is not enough on the cake, take small scoops of the buttercream using your offset spatula and spread a thin layer of buttercream around the sides of the cake. (The cake should show through this layer.) Use the offset spatula to finish the top edge of the cake by holding the spatula parallel with the top of the cake and pulling towards the center in short strokes. Repeat all the way around the edge of the cake, so no rough edges remain. The sides of the cake should be lightly coated in buttercream, while the top should have a thicker layer, about 1/4 inch thick. Chill the cake until firm to the touch, about 1 hour. Dip the metal offset spatula into a tall glass filled with hot water. Use the warmed spatula to smooth the top of the cake again by holding the spatula parallel with the cake and pulling towards the center in short strokes. Divide the remaining buttercream between one piping bag fitted with a large round tip and one piping bag fitted with a large star tip. Working in a crescent-moon shape around the top of the cake, pipe kisses of buttercream in varying sizes, alternating between the round tip and the star tip.
For the decorations: Decorate the top of the cake with the star anise, cinnamon sticks and chocolate-covered espresso beans.

" 39600,"Bodacious Burger 1/2 cup ketchup 1/2 cup mayonnaise 1/4 teaspoon hot sauce
1 pound macaroni 2 cups whole milk
1 tablespoon butter
1 cup grated fontina
1 cup grated Cheddar jack
8 ounces processed cheese, such as Velveeta, diced
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 large onion 1 cup buttermilk
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt
Plenty of freshly ground black pepper
Canola oil, for frying
1 1/4 pounds ground beef 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
A few dashes hot sauce, such as Tabasco 1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon butter 1 kaiser bun, sliced in half 2 butter lettuce leaves
2 crisp-cooked bacon slices
2 slices American cheese
2 slices tomato
1/4 cup baby spinach leaves
5 bread and butter pickle slices
Instructions: For the doctored fry sauce: Combine the ketchup, mayonnaise and hot sauce in a small bowl. Set aside. For the quick and easy mac and three cheeses: Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add the macaroni and cook according to the package directions. Heat the milk and butter in a large saucepan over medium heat until hot. Add the fontina, Cheddar jack and processed cheese and cook, stirring, until melted. Stir in the pepper and salt. Drain the macaroni and stir it into the cheese sauce. Keep warm. For the onion strings: Begin by peeling the onions and slicing them very thinly; use a mandoline slicer if you can. Separate the onion slices, put them in a shallow baking dish and pour the buttermilk over the top. Press the onions down so they're submerged as much as possible and let them soak on the counter for at least an hour. If necessary, stir them around a bit halfway through the soaking process. In a bowl, combine the flour, cayenne, kosher salt, seasoned salt and black pepper and set aside. Pour 1 to 2 quarts canola oil in a pot or Dutch oven. Heat to 360 degrees F, or until a pinch of flour sizzles when sprinkled over the pot. Using tongs, remove a handful of onions from the buttermilk and immediately dunk into the flour mixture. Coat the onions in the flour mixture, then tap them on the inside of the bowl to shake off the excess. Plunge the onions in the hot oil. With a spoon, fiddle with them a bit just to break them up and watch them! They'll be ready to remove from the oil in no time flat. When they're golden brown (this should take just a minute or two), remove them from the oil and place on a paper towel-lined plate. Repeat with the remaining onion slices and serve immediately. For the burger: To a bowl, add the ground beef, salt, pepper and hot sauce and mix to combine. Shape into two 10-ounce burger patties. Melt the butter in a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat and cook the burgers for 5 minutes per side for medium rare. For the burger bun: Melt the butter in a skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Put the bun halves in the skillet cut-side down and lightly toast, about 2 minutes. To build the burger, layer on top of the bottom bun: the butter lettuce leaves, some mac and cheese, 1 burger patty, the bacon, the American cheese slices, 1 tomato slice, the other burger patty, some onion strings, a spoon of the doctored fry sauce, spinach leaves, the other tomato slice, the pickles and the top bun.

Refrigerate 8 hours or overnight. Preheat a grill to medium low (350 degrees F on gas or 335 degrees F on charcoal). Put the foil-wrapped ribs meat-side down on the grates. Grill, carefully flipping the ribs every 30 minutes, until the meat is tender but not falling apart and the tip of a paring knife inserted into the ribs meets slight resistance, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.

Shape each piece into an oval wide enough to fit the width of your pasta roller. Lightly flour your work surface and set the pasta roller to its widest setting. Lightly flour one piece of dough, pass it through the roller and then lightly dust the rolled dough with flour, brushing off the excess with your hands. Pass the dough through the widest setting again. Lower the setting by 1 notch and continue to pass the dough through until you've reached the desired thickness. The thinner the better in my opinion.
For the filling: Combine the ricotta, pesto and egg in a medium bowl.
Form the ravioli with 1 tablespoon of filling in each. You can make them with a tray mold, stamp or by hand, with many options for shapes and sizes.
Place the ravioli on a baking sheet lined with a kitchen towel or parchment paper that has been dusted with flour to prevent them from sticking. Dust the raviolis on top with flour as well. Continue the process with the remaining dough sheets and filling. They can all be frozen at this point\u202f
Bring a pot of water to a boil and salt liberally. Drop in the ravioli and cook for 4 to 5 minutes.
For the sauce: Meanwhile, heat a large pan over medium heat, add the butter and cook until melted and golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the peas if using and 1/2 cup of the pasta water and bring to a simmer. Transfer the ravioli to the pan and shake the pan to coat them in the sauce. Remove from the heat and add the Parmesan.

Add the butter and continue pulsing until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Add the water by drizzling about 1 tablespoon at a time, pulsing after each drizzle. Stop once the dough begins to come together. Transfer the dough to a board and use the heel of your hand or a pastry scraper to press it together. Pat into a disk approximately 6 inches in diameter, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours. On a lightly floured board, roll out the dough to a 13 to 14-inch circle, flouring the dough and board as necessary to keep it from sticking. Roll up the dough around the rolling pin and unroll it into the tart pan. Gently lift the edges to ease the dough into the corners of the pan, then push the dough down gently to be certain the dough around the sides is 1/4 inch thick. Use a paring knife to cut excess dough from the rim of the pan. If necessary, pat a bit of the dough trimmings into any thin spots. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour. Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat the oven to 375degreesF. Place the tart pan on a baking sheet. Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork, line with aluminum foil or parchment paper, and fill with pie weights or dry beans. Bake for 15 minutes. Remove the parchment and weights, and continue to bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the crust is golden. Sprinkle the chopped chocolate evenly over the bottom of the crust and bake for an additional minute, just to melt the chocolate. Remove from the oven and use the back of a spoon or a small offset spatula to spread the chocolate in an even layer. Let cool on a rack while you prepare the filling. Raise the oven temperature to 400degreesF. To make the filling: In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar and water and stir over medium-low heat until the sugar dissolves. Increase the heat to medium-high and cook, without stirring, swirling the pan so the caramel colors evenly. If sugar crystals form on the sides of the pan, brush with a wet pastry brush. Test the color of the caramel by drizzling a few drops onto a white plate. When the color is medium to dark amber, remove from the heat. Slowly and carefully - it will bubble up - add the cream. Return the caramel to medium heat and cook for 3 minutes to thicken slightly, reducing the heat to medium-low if the caramel bubbles too much. Remove from the heat and cool for 15 minutes. Place the tart shell on a baking sheet. In a medium bowl, whisk together the vanilla, egg, and yolk. Slowly whisk into the caramel. Stir in the melted butter, followed by the nuts and nibs, if using. Pour the filling into the prepared tart shell. The filling will come to the top of the shell. (If the crust has shrunk during baking, it may not hold all the filling.) Bake the tart for 15 minutes. Lower the oven temperature to 375degreesF and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the filling is set. Let cool on a rack for about 10 minutes. While still warm, move the tart in the pan to loosen the edges where the caramel has stuck, but keep it in the pan. Let cool completely before removing the tart ring. Serve each wedge of tart with a dollop of the cocoa whipped cream. Cocoa Whipped Cream: Place the cream in a chilled metal bowl or mixer bowl. With a whisk, or the whisk attachment, whip the cream until slightly frothy. Combine the sugar with the cocoa powder. Sprinkle into the cream and continue to whip until soft peaks form.

2 rulers or paint stirring sticks
2 medium rubber bands
1 large (9 1/2-inch) paper coffee filter
1 small (7 3/4-inch) coffee filter
110 grams (1 1/2 cups) coarse-ground coffee 125 grams (1/2 cup) filtered water, at 200 degrees F (see Chef\u2019s Note)
900 grams (about 7 cups) ice cubes, plus more for serving (optional)
Instructions: I\u2019m just going to say this once: BE CAREFUL. We\u2019re hacking soda bottles with a box cutter here so take precautions, go slowly, and always cut away from anything that can bleed. There, I said it. Also (and I hope obviously), don\u2019t let kids attempt this. Set the blade of the utility knife so that it\u2019s sticking about a quarter of an inch out of its handle and cut the bottom 3 inches off both soda bottles. Discard the bottoms. Remove the bottle lids. Cut an asterisk-shaped hole in the first lid. (Try doing this with the cap upright rather than upside down. AND BE CAREFUL.) Use the thumbtack to poke a tiny hole right in the middle of the second cap. Screw both caps back onto the bottles. Wad up the cheesecloth and stuff it into the neck of the bottle with the asterisk-shaped hole. Place the bottle with the asterisk-shaped hole on top of the pitcher with the cap facing down and secure with the rulers and rubber bands. Place the coffee grounds into the large paper filter and set inside the bottle. Set this entire apparatus on top of a digital scale. Zero the scale, then slowly pour the water in a spiral over the grounds to bloom the coffee. This step should take about 30 seconds. Top with the small coffee filter, which will act as a diffuser. Nestle the bottle with the tiny hole, cap-down, onto the bottle holding the coffee. Zero the scale again and weigh the ice into the top bottle. Set your tower out of direct sunlight until all of the ice has melted and passed through the coffee, 10 to 12 hours. If you\u2019re keeping an eye on the coffee-brewing process, you should see one drop of water moving through the coffee about every 7 seconds. Once the coffee is done brewing, remove the rig from the pitcher and discard or compost the coffee grounds. Serve immediately over additional ice, if desired, or transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 1 week.

Lightly butter 2 baking sheets.
Place the butter and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer equipped with the paddle attachment-the one that looks like the peace sign-and beat until creamy and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the egg yolks and almond extract and beat for another minute or so, scraping down the sides of the bowl occasionally.
In another large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and chopped almonds.
Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter-sugar mixture. When combined, the dough should be soft and homogeneous. Wrap the dough in plastic and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, until firm.
When you're ready to bake, take the dough out of the fridge and roll it into 3/4-inch balls. Place the balls about 1 inch apart on a prepared baking sheet. Using the tip of your thumb, make a hole as deep as you can in each doughball without actually poking through the bottom. Roll your thumb around a little bit to widen the hole-this is your thumbprint!
Bake the cookies for 16 to 18 minutes or until they begin to turn golden around the edges. Remove from the oven and cool. While the cookies are cooling, repoke each one with your thumb to create a really nice spot for the caramel. Repeat with the remaining dough.
For the caramel: In a medium saute pan, combine the sugar, lemon juice, corn syrup, and 1/4 cup water. Bring the pan to medium-high heat. Be careful not to swish the pan around as that can cause the sugar to recrystallize. As the mixture boils, the water will evaporate and the sugar will begin to turn brown, or \caramelize.\ This is the point when you DO NOT want to take your eyes off it! Things can take a turn for the worse here and there will be no recovery. As the sugar begins to turn gold and move toward golden brown, remove it from the heat and add the heavy cream. As you do this it will bubble up like crazy. Be sure to use a pan large enough to accommodate the bubbling-this stuff is molten and can cause a very severe burn. Whisk the cream until things settle down and the bubbles subside, then add the butter 2 pats at a time, making sure each addition is thoroughly incorporated before adding more.
Let the caramel cool slightly, then spoon it into the hole of each cookie and let cool. You'll most likely have leftover caramel sauce, so save it for something yummy-like pouring over vanilla ice cream!

Beat the butter in the bowl of an electric mixer at medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes. Add the brown sugar and molasses. Mix until combined. Beat in the egg and vanilla. Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and mix until a thick dough forms. If the dough is sticky, mix in the remaining flour a little at a time until the dough can easily be handled without it sticking to your fingers. You may not have to use all of the flour. Gather the dough into a ball; divide in half. Roll each dough piece flat to 1/4-inch thickness between parchment paper sheets. Transfer the dough inside the sheets to the refrigerator to chill for 30 minutes. Position a rack in the center of the oven; preheat to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Print the Haunted Gingerbread House Walls and Roof Template (link below) and cut the shapes out with scissors. When the dough is well chilled, remove it from the refrigerator and peel back the top sheets of parchment. Lay the templates on the dough and cut around them using a flat-edged knife (do not discard the templates). Transfer the dough shapes to the prepared baking sheets. Leftover dough can be re-rolled and cut into cookies, or you can shape it into a baton and store it in your freezer for up to 1 month. Bake the shapes for 15 minutes, or until lightly golden around the edges. While the cookies are still warm, lay the templates on top of the baked cookies and re-cut them using a knife. This will help the shapes fit together perfectly when you are assembling the house. Assemble the house: Place the white candy wafers in a heatproof bowl and cook at 100 percent power in the microwave at 30-second intervals. Stir well after each interval until the candy is smooth (this should take about 1 minute total cook time). Transfer the candy to a disposable piping bag with a small hole in the end snipped (you may also use a zip-top bag with the corner snipped). Use cans from your pantry to help prop the house pieces up as you work. Glue the sides, front and back of the house together using the white melted candy. Let stand until dry, about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare the landscape: Spread half of the chocolate frosting over a 14-inch cake board or serving platter. Sprinkle the surface with the cookie crumbs and press them down slightly with flattened palms. Save leftover cookie crumbs and frosting for later use. When the candy holding the gingerbread walls together is dry, gently lift the assembled house and place it in the center of the prepared board. Pipe white melted candy along the top edges of the house and attach the roof; hold the pieces steady with your hands until they hold on their own, about 2 minutes. Pipe extra candy around the roof edges and walls to fill in any visible gaps. Place the corn cereal in a bowl or zip-top bag and add the cocoa powder. Mix together until the cereal pieces are well coated with cocoa. Pipe a line of candy on the bottom edge of a roof piece and place cereal pieces end-to-end in a single layer to make roof tiles. Pipe another line of candy just above the first row of cereal and add another row, slightly overlapping the first. It's okay to use broken cereal pieces, as this will add to the character of the haunted house. Cover the entire rooftop with cereal. Pipe candy on the front and back top edges of the house and line with cereal squares. Allow the house to stand at room temperature until the candy is set, about 15 minutes. Make the windows and door: Print the Haunted Gingerbread House Windows Template (link below). Place the template on a flat work surface and cover it with a large sheet of parchment or waxed paper. Melt the black candy wafers in a heatproof bowl and cook at 100 percent power in the microwave at 30-second intervals. Stir well after each interval until the candy is smooth (this should take about 1 minute total cook time). Transfer the candy to a disposable piping bag with the tip snipped. Pipe the candy over the black boxes (windows and doors) on the template. Use a toothpick to push the candy into small corners and to fill in gaps. Make as many windows as you wish for your haunted house by moving the template under a new sheet of parchment paper. Place candy buttons in each of the smaller windows before the candy is set. Use a food color marker to draw on eyeballs. Allow the candy to stand until set, about 15 minutes at room temperature or 5 minutes in the refrigerator. Peel the candy boxes with eyes off of the parchment and use a little melted candy to attach them to the top front of the house. Position each window tilted inward slightly. Attach the larger candy rectangle below the 2 windows to create the door. Use the white melted candy (reheat if necessary) to pipe dots on the top and bottom edges of the door. Use a toothpick to pull the melted candy into points to create fangs. Make the monster arms: Melt green candy wafers as previously directed with the white and black candy wafers. Transfer the candy to a disposable piping bag with the tip snipped. Lay a sheet of parchment on a work surface. Pipe a 4-inch L shape on the parchment paper with the green candy. Use a toothpick to smooth the candy into an arm shape. Use the toothpick end to pull the bottom of the L shape into fingers. Pour green sanding sugar over the top portion of the arm, leaving the hand uncovered. Place a chocolate sprinkle on each finger to create long claws. Allow the shapes to set until firm. When the candy is firm, peel it off of the parchment and shake the excess sugar off of the arm. Repeat this process with a backwards L shape so that you have 2 monster arms. Attach a candy window with melted candy to each side of the house and hold until set, about 2 minutes. Attach an arm to each window and hold until set. Further decorate the sides and back of the house with more windows.
Create boards for the windows: Knead 2 chocolate chews together and roll flat with a rolling pin (if the chews are too firm to flatten, heat them in the microwave for 5 seconds). Cut small board shapes (about 1/4 inch by 1 inch) from the candy using a knife. Use the end of a toothpick to striate the pieces. Use the pointed end of the toothpick to poke 2 small holes in each end, creating nail holes on the boards. Attach the pieces over the windows using melted candy. Make candy pumpkins: Carefully poke holes in the gumballs using a metal skewer or knife, and thread them onto the pointed ends of toothpicks. Melt the orange candy wafers as previously directed. Dip the gumballs into the candy and place them on parchment paper. Remove the toothpick. Use leftover chocolate chews to fashion small pumpkin stems. Place them standing upright on top of the pumpkins. Allow to stand until set, about 15 minutes. Make scary trees: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Use the black melted candy (reheat as needed) to pipe 3 well-spaced lines on the cookie sheets. Place a rolled wafer cookie on top of each line. Use the black candy to completely cover the wafers. Draw tree branches with the candy coming off of both sides and the top ends of the wafers. Cover with black sanding sugar. Let stand until firm, about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, make the pretzel ladder: Break 2 of the pretzel sticks in half. Place 2 whole pretzel sticks parallel to each other. Attach the broken pretzel rungs to the whole pretzel sticks using melted candy. Let stand until set. When firm, lean the ladder against the house, preferably leading up to a window with eyeballs peering out. When the trees are firm, lift them from the parchment and shake away excess sugar. Place each snack cake on the cake board upside-down and press a candy tree in its center. Cover the snack cakes with leftover cookie crumbs, if desired. Make tombstones: Place leftover chocolate frosting in a piping bag. Break the chocolate bars at their perforations. Pipe a small dot of frosting onto the crumb-covered cake board and press an upright turned chocolate piece into the frosting. Repeat with remaining chocolate pieces to create a graveyard. Finishing touches: Use melted white candy to pipe spider webs onto the house. Use the food color marker to draw cracks on the house, and spiders near their webs. Place the pumpkin decorations on the landscape and around the house as desired. ","[Pinot Noir, Beaujolais, Sangiovese, Grenache]

2 teaspoons instant espresso
Confectioners' sugar, for dusting
2 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips 1 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
Instructions: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line the piecrust shell with parchment paper, and fill it with pie weights, dried beans, or uncooked rice. Bake for 15 minutes. Remove the pie weights and parchment paper. Return the pie crust to the oven, and bake until lightly browned, about 5 minutes more. Remove to a wire rack, and cool for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, let the prepared ganache stand at room temperature 30 minutes. Sprinkle the brownie cubes on the bottom of the pie crust; top with the caramel sauce, drizzling it evenly. Beat the ganache, heavy cream, and espresso with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until fluffy. Using a spatula, spread the ganache mixture evenly over the top of the pie. Chill the pie, uncovered, for 2 hours. Dust with the confectioners' sugar just before serving. Put the chocolate chips in a heatproof mixing bowl. Stir together the cream, corn syrup, vanilla, and salt in a small saucepan; bring to a boil over medium-high. Pour the hot cream mixture over the chocolate chips, making sure all the chips are submerged. (Do not stir or touch the chocolate mixture.) Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and let it stand for 5 minutes. Using a spatula and starting from the bottom of the bowl, gently move the mixture from side to side to begin combining the chocolate with the cream mixture. Gradually and slowly stir from the middle until smooth and blended, 2 to 3 minutes.

In the bowl of a standing electric mixer fitted with a dough hook, or in a mixing bowl, combine the yeast, sugar and warm water and stir gently to dissolve. Let the mixture stand until the yeast comes alive and starts to foam, 5 to 10 minutes. If you're using a mixer, turn the mixer on low, add the salt and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add the flour, a little at a time, mixing at the lowest speed until the flour has been incorporated. When the dough starts to come together, increase the speed to medium and let it go until the dough gathers into a ball. This should take about 5 minutes. Stop the machine periodically to scrape the dough off the hook. Get a feel for the dough as you're making it by squeezing a small amount together between your thumb and fingers. If it's crumbly, add more water, if it's sticky, add more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and fold it over itself a few times, kneading until it's smooth and elastic. Form the dough into a round and put it into a lightly oiled bowl, turning it over to coat the dough entirely with the oil. Cover with plastic wrap or a damp towel and let it rise in a warm spot (i.e., over a gas pilot light) until doubled in size, about 1 hour. Preheat an outdoor gas or charcoal barbecue and get it very hot. Brush the grates with oil to keep the sausages from sticking. Grill the sausages until cooked through, turning with tongs. Set aside. Keep the grill hot to make the pizza. Roll or pat the dough into a rustic, oblong shape, about 1/4-inch thick - do this directly on a lightly floured pizza paddle for ease. Brush the crust with a thin layer of olive oil, and lay oil side down onto the hot grill. Once the dough looks set, in about 2 minutes, turn the crust over. Now prepare the topping. Cut up the tomatoes and add to a large mixing bowl. Add the garlic and basil. Crumble in the sausage. Rip the mozzarella into pieces with your hands and add that too along with some extra-virgin olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, add the salad mix and toss to combine. Once the crust is set and cooked, transfer it to a platter. Scoop up the salad mix in your hands and spread it evenly over the top. Sprinkle with a good dusting of Parmigiano-Reggiano and finish with a drizzle of olive oil.

Reserve. Coat a large, wide pot with olive oil and bring to a high heat. Sprinkle the boar generously with salt and add to the hot pan. Cook the boar until it is VERY brown on all sides. Remove the boar from the pan and reserve. Ditch the excess oil in the pan. Add a few drops of new oil and add the pureed veggies to the pan. Season them with salt, and brown them until crud forms on the bottom of the pan. Scrape the crud off the bottom of the pan (don't let the crud burn- it adds A LOT of flavor). Return the browned boar to the pan and add the tomato paste and cocoa powder. Stir to combine and cook the tomato paste for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring frequently. Toss in the chopped juniper berries. Add the wine and stir to combine. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and let the wine reduce by half. Add water to the pan so it covers the boar by about 1-inch. Toss in the bay leaves and thyme bundle. Taste the liquid and season with salt if needed (it will). Bring the liquid to a boil, reduce to a simmer and let cook for 3 hours, adding water as the liquid level reduces. Taste frequently and re-season as needed. During the last 30 minutes of cooking time, let the cooking liquid reduce and the sauce get thick. Also during the last 30 minutes of cooking, bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat to cook the pappardelle. Pasta water should ALWAYS be well salted. Salty as the ocean! TASTE IT! If your pasta water is under seasoned, it doesn't matter how good your sauce is, your complete dish will always taste under seasoned. When the water is at a rolling boil add the pappardelle and cook until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of the pasta cooking water. While the pasta is cooking, remove 1/2 of the ragu from the pot and reserve. Drain the pasta and add to the pot with the remaining ragu. Stir or toss the pasta to coat with the sauce. Add some of the reserved sauce if needed to make it about an even ratio between pasta and sauce. Add the reserved pasta cooking water and cook the pasta and sauce together over a medium heat until the water has reduced. Turn off the heat and give a generous drizzle of the big fat finishing olive oil. Toss or stir vigorously. Divide the pasta and sauce into serving bowls or one big pasta bowl. Top with grated Parmigiano. Serve immediately. Wine Pairing Suggestion: Chianti Place the flour on a clean, dry work surface. Make a hole (this is also called a well) in the center of the flour pile that is about 8 inches wide (bigger is definitely better here). Crack all of the eggs and the yolk into the hole and add the olive oil, salt and 1 to 2 tablespoons water. Using a fork, beat the eggs together with the olive oil, water (or more if needed) and salt. Using the fork, begin to incorporate the flour into the egg mixture, be careful not to break the sides of the well or the egg mixture will run all over your board and you will have a big mess! Also, don't worry about the lumps. When enough flour has incorporated into the egg mixture that it will not run all over the place when the sides of the well are broken, begin to use your hands to really get everything well combined. If the mixture is tight and dry, wet your hands and begin kneading with wet hands. When the mixture has really come together to a homogeneous mixture, THEN you can start kneading. When kneading it is VERY important to put your body weight into it, get on top of the dough to really stretch it and not to tear the dough. Using the heels of your palms, roll the dough to create a very smooooooth, supple dough. When done, the dough should look VERY smooth and feel almost velvety. Kneading will usually take from 8 to 10 minutes for an experienced kneader and 10 to 15 for an inexperienced kneader. Put your body weight into it, you need to knead! This is where the perfect, toothsome texture of your pasta is formed. Get in there and have fun! When the pasta has been kneaded to the perfect consistency, wrap it in plastic and let rest for at least 1 hour. If using immediately, do not refrigerate. To roll the pasta: Cut off 1/3 of the pasta dough, reserve the rest and keep it covered. Squash the pasta with the heels of your hands to facilitate it going through the pasta roller. Dust with flour. Put the pasta through the roller set on number one. Roll the dough through 2 times, dusting it with flour if it feels sticky or tacky. Fold the pasta into thirds and put it through the machine on number one again. Change the setting on the pasta roller to number two and run the pasta through. Continue to roll the pasta through the machine, changing the setting each time to a larger number (this will make the opening on the pasta machine smaller). When you get to the desired thin-ness (I recommend number six), cut the pasta into 10-inch lengths. Flour the dough generously and stack them in a pile. Cover the stack with plastic or a clean tea towel and proceed rolling the rest of the pasta. When the pasta is all rolled, take 3 sheets of pasta and fold both ends of the pasta over each other until they meet in the middle. Using a sharp knife, cut the pasta rolls into 1-inch widths. Unroll the pasta \ribbons\ and dust with semolina and reserve on sheet trays.

Return a list of the wine types only. recipe: Baked Ziti with Meat Sauce 1 pound ziti pasta 1 pound ground beef 1 onion, chopped 2 garlic cloves, minced" 39840,"Lemon-Blueberry Sunshine Tart 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour 8 tablespoons (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 large egg
1/3 cup granulated sugar 1/3 cup lemon juice (from about 2 lemons)
2 large eggs
1 large egg yolk
2 teaspoons whole milk
6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
3 ounces (1/2 pint) blueberries 1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons blueberry preserves
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
2 teaspoons lemon juice
Instructions: For the shortbread crust: Position an oven rack in the bottom third of the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Combine the flour, butter, confectioners' sugar and salt in a food processor. Pulse until the mixture resembles coarse meal with some pea-sized pieces. Add the egg and pulse until the dough comes together, about 1 minute. Remove 1/3 cup of the dough and set aside. Press the remaining dough into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch tart pan. Prick the dough all over with a fork.
To form the star, start by folding a 40-inch-long-by-2 1/2-inch-wide piece of foil into an accordion (there should be about 24 folds, each 1 1/2-inches long); this will become the support for forming your star inside the tart pan. Let the foil open like an accordion and place it in the tart pan in a circle; connect and overlap the end points so that you have an 11-point star.
Roll the reserved 1/3 cup dough into a 27-inch-long rope. Use a rolling pin to flatten the rope into a 34-inch-long-by-1-inch wide strip (if the dough sticks to the surface, use a small offset spatula and quickly run it underneath the strip to loosen it). Carefully transfer the strip to the tart pan and form it around the inside of the foil to create the star shape with the dough (if the dough breaks, just use your fingers and the support wall to form it back together). Once formed, press the bottom of the star shape to adhere firmly to the bottom crust (it will feel like playdough and can easily be molded).
Bake until the crust is set and turns a light golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool slightly, about 30 minutes. Carefully remove the foil and discard.
Meanwhile, for the lemon curd: Whisk the sugar, lemon juice, eggs, yolk and milk in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat until combined. Add the butter a few pieces at a time and whisk continuously until the mixture is thick and coats the back of a spoon, 8 to 10 minutes. Strain the curd through a sieve if any lumps form. Pour the curd into the center star of the tart.
For the blueberry filling: Mix the blueberries, preserves, sugar, flour, lemon zest and lemon juice in a medium bowl until well combined and the berries look glossy. Spoon the mixture around the perimeter of the star where there is no curd.
Bake until the curd is set, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool slightly, about 30 minutes. Refrigerate to cool completely, 4 hours and up to overnight. Serve cold.

Using a bowl scraper or your fingers, mix in the butter until the mixture resembles a coarse meal (using your fingers will yield a more cake-like texture). Make a well in the center, pour in the milk and stir until just combined. Turn the dough out onto a floured work surface and knead 5 or 6 times. Roll into a 10-by-14-by-1/4-inch rectangle. Mix together the mascarpone, cinnamon and the remaining 3 tablespoons sugar in a small bowl until well combined. Gently spread the mixture onto the rolled-out biscuit dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Sprinkle with the raisins and then roll the dough into a long cylinder. Transfer to a baking sheet and freeze for 20 minutes. Set the dough cylinder on a floured work surface and slice into 8 equal pieces. Place cut-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet, spaced 1 1/2-inches apart. Use the palm of your hand to gently press the biscuits into 1-inch-thick disks. Bake until the tops start to brown, 20 to 25 minutes. For the caramel: Whisk the cream and the instant tea together in a small bowl until the tea has dissolved (or add to a Mason jar and shake). Without stirring, heat the sugar in a dry pan over medium heat until liquefied and starting to brown, 6 to 10 minutes. (When the edges begin to brown and the sugar is liquid, go ahead and stir to ensure even browning.) Continue cooking until copper colored, 1 to 4 minutes. Immediately turn off the heat and VERY CAREFULLY stir the cream-tea mixture into the hot sugar. Add the vanilla and stir until smooth. (If lumps form, turn the heat back on to low and stir until dissolved.) Set aside to cool a bit. Drizzle the biscuits with the caramel and eat as soon as cool enough not to burn the roof of your mouth.

25 grams (1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon) neutral oil, such as sunflower, peanut, or canola, plus 5 to 7 cups for frying
15 grams (about 1 1/2 tablespoons) instant yeast
12 grams (about 1 1/2 tablespoons) kosher salt
7 grams (about 1 1/2 teaspoons) sugar
Instructions: Peel the potatoes and cut into 1-inch cubes. Measure out 580 grams (1 1/4 pounds) of the peeled and cubed pieces and transfer to a medium saucepan. (Save any remaining pieces for another use.) Cover with 1 inch of water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until potatoes are soft, 10 to 12 minutes. While the potatoes are boiling, deposit the flour, milk, 1 tablespoon of the oil, yeast, salt, and sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Drain the potatoes very well, then return them to the saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring and breaking up large pieces, until the potatoes are dry and crumbly, about 3 minutes. Transfer the potatoes to the stand mixer bowl and mix on low speed until the dough begins to come together, about 30 seconds. Swap out the paddle for the dough hook and knead on medium speed until somewhat smooth, about 4 minutes. Inspect the dough. If it\u2019s very sticky, tearing, and smearing around the bottom of the bowl, add 1 tablespoon of flour and mix on low speed until the dough no longer sticks to the bowl. Keep checking the dough; you may have to add up to 4 tablespoons of flour depending on the moisture level of the potatoes. Return to medium speed and continue kneading until the dough is smooth, another 3 minutes. Transfer to a lightly floured counter and knead by hand for a final minute. If the dough sticks heavily to your hands, work in a bit more flour. The dough should be soft, but not overly tacky. Shape the dough into a ball and move to a tall 2- to 4-quart container or 8-cup liquid measuring cup. Add about 1 teaspoon of oil and rotate the dough in the oil to coat it evenly. Press down to flatten the top of the dough, then mark the dough height on the outside of the bowl with tape or a rubber band. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and leave to rise at room temperature until the dough has doubled in size, 20 to 40 minutes. Once risen, punch down the dough to work out any large gas bubbles. Transfer to a lightly floured counter and divide into eight 175- to 180-gram pieces. Form each into a smooth ball, then transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Cover with a towel and rest for 10 minutes. When 5 minutes remain, heat 1 inch of the oil in a wide Dutch oven over medium-high heat to 350 degrees F and line a baking sheet with a wire rack. (See Cook\u2019s Note.) One at a time, flatten each dough ball into a circle, then stretch or roll it into an 8- to 10-inch disc. Cut three slits across the center of the disc to help prevent large bubbles from forming during cooking. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet and top with a second sheet of parchment. Repeat with the remaining dough balls. When the oil is ready, fry the discs, one at a time, until puffed and golden brown, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes per side. (Although a spider or slotted spoon can be used for flipping, I manage much better with wooden chopsticks.) Transfer the golden-brown beauties to the wire rack as they come out of the oil to drain. Keep an eye on the oil temperature and adjust the heat as needed to maintain 350 degrees F. Continue to stretch out the remaining dough discs while frying. Consume the breads warm, if possible.

Salt and freshly ground black pepper 1 tablespoon oil 1/4 cup white wine or vegetable stock Caramelized Shallots, recipe follows, for serving Crispy Oyster Mushrooms, recipe follows, for serving Risotto or rice, optional, for serving 6 whole cloves garlic One 7-ounce can chipotles in adobo 1/2 tablespoon whole cumin seeds, toasted and ground in spice grinder 1/2 tablespoon whole cumin seeds, toasted and ground in spice grinder
1/2 tablespoon smoked Spanish paprika 1/2 tablespoon dried mint 1/2 tablespoon dried oregano 1/2 tablespoon salt 1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil 1 tablespoon butter Pinch salt 6 shallots, peeled and finely diced 1 tablespoon butter Pinch salt 2 clusters oyster mushrooms, gently torn apart and each mushroom halved 2 clusters oyster mushrooms, gently torn apart and each mushroom halved
8 fresh basil leaves, torn Instructions: For the huckleberry sauce: Put the huckleberries, vinegar, sparkling wine, Harissa, sugar, salt and mint in a large saucepot over high heat. Bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer. Let simmer for 30 minutes over low heat to dissolve the sugar, evaporate the alcohol and let the flavors mingle. Next, pour the contents through a sieve to drain. Repeat a few times and use a paper towel or coffee filter to make the final \ready for reduction\ sauce very smooth and silky.
When ready to serve, pour about 1 cup sauce into a saute pan over medium-high heat and let reduce or bubble until your desired color and thickness, about 5 minutes. It should be dark crimson in color and coat the back of the spoon. Taste for salt and spice; add more Harissa if you'd like to turn up the heat. Keep warm until ready to plate fish.
For the halibut: Halibut is very delicate and will turn into sawdust if overcooked. It only takes a few minutes to cook and is very flaky and juicy when cooked accurately. The longer you let the halibut sit after cooking, the dryer it will become. Have your plates ready for when you start cooking the halibut.
Pat the halibut dry and then sprinkle the fillets with salt and pepper. Add the oil to large saute pan over medium-high heat (use anything other than nonstick for a nice golden sear). When the oil is just about to start smoking, lay the fillets gently in the pan as it drops in, falling away from your body, and immediately give the pan a shake. If the pan is hot enough, the fish will not stick. Let the fish cook until brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Gently flip the fillets over and deglaze with the white wine. Cover and let cook 3 more minutes.
To serve, ladle the huckleberry sauce on the plate first, and then put the fish on the sauce; don't cover up all of the sauce as it shines like a jewel. Place a dollop of Caramelized Shallots on top of the fish. Serve Crispy Oyster Mushrooms alongside; lay the mushrooms on the plate, like a bouquet of flowers with the round part of the mushroom facing up. Place a few of the fresh huckleberries on the plate to garnish. Serve with risotto or rice if desired.
Add the garlic to a food processor and pulse until chopped. Add the chipotle peppers, cumin, paprika, mint, oregano and salt. Puree until smooth. Slowly add the olive oil to emulsify. Yield: about 1 1/2 cup. In a small saute pan over low heat, melt the butter and add the salt. Add the shallots and cook until soft and brown, about 20 minutes. Make sure to achieve the brown color, which is the caramelization of the shallots and gives the great flavor. Save on the back burner on low until the fish is finished. Yield: about 1/2 cup. In a small saute pan over medium-low heat, melt the butter and add the salt. Add the mushrooms, reduce the heat to low and cook until the mushrooms turn brown and crispy, 7 to 8 minutes. You can do this at the beginning of your dinner and keep them crispy over low heat. Before plating, add the basil leaves and toss a few times. Doing this just before you plate will help keep the basil leaves bright green. Yield: about 1 cup.

(If you have any trimmings of meat, you would add them at this time). Deglaze the pan with the wine, and add the beef stock and the thyme and rosemary. Allow this mixture to reduce. It could take 20 to 30 minutes (sometimes longer) at a rolling boil, uncovered. You want the liquid to evaporate to about 1/3 of what you started with (in order to intensify the flavor). Once you have reduced the liquid to the required volume, remove from the heat, strain through a chinois (a conical strainer) or some cheesecloth (so you can remove all the vegetables and herbs), return the sauce to the pan and stir in the butter to finish the sauce.
For the potatoes: Boil the potatoes with the bay leaves until the potatoes are tender. While the potatoes are cooking, saute lobster meat in oil and butter until it is no longer translucent, and set aside. Drain the potatoes well and discard the bay leaves, then mash the potatoes. Using a beater, add in 1 stick of butter and salt and white pepper. Fold the lobster meat into the potatoes and set aside in a warm place.; Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Season beef with salt and pepper. In a heavy bottomed, oven-safe saute pan, add just enough oil to cover the bottom of the pan and heat on medium high heat on the stovetop. When the saute pan is hot, cook each side of the filets for approximately 2 to 3 minutes, leaving undisturbed for the first 2 minutes or so. Turn the filets and continue the searing process on the other side of the filets for another 2 to 3 minutes. Place the pan of steaks into the preheated oven. Allow the filets to cook a further 6 to 8 minutes in the oven (depending on the thickness of the steaks and the heat of your oven). While the steaks are in the oven finish the potatoes by crumbling the Boursin cheese into the lobster mashed potatoes which you have been keeping warm and gently stirring it in to allow cheese to melt. Remove the pan of steaks from oven and allow them to rest. (Remember to use an oven mitt; the handle of the pan will be hot!) If necessary, briefly re-heat the Merlot sauce, then remove the pot from the heat and whisk in the whole stick of butter. Plate a portion of mashed potatoes in the center of serving plate. Top with the filet mignon, spoon the Merlot sauce over and around and garnish with chopped chives.

1/4 cup thinly sliced red onions
1/2 cup fresh mozzarella, cut or torn into 1/2-inch cubes
Italian seasoning, to taste
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons water, at room temperature 1/4 teaspoon active dry yeast
1 cup 00 flour
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon olive oil
One 28-ounce can San Marzano tomatoes 1 teaspoon salt
2 large fresh basil leaves
Instructions: Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F. On a floured surface, press out Pizza Dough balls. After dough is pressed out flat, begin stretching by hand to desired size and thickness. Place on baking sheet or preheated pizza stone. Spread San Marzano Crushed Tomato Sauce on the dough, leaving 1/2 inch all the way around free from sauce. Put basil on first (making sure to lay other ingredients over it so basil does not burn in the oven), then prosciutto, onions and cheese. Sprinkle with Italian seasoning. Bake for at least 10 minutes, or until pizza dough edges look browned and mozzarella has some browned spots. (Best results will be achieved by using a pizza stone that is placed in the oven at least 15 minutes before placing dough on it. Pizza can then be built directly on the pizza stone.) In a small cup, combine 2 tablespoons of the water and the yeast and stir until the yeast is dissolved. Set aside for about 10 minutes. In a mixer with a dough hook, combine the flour and yeast mixture and mix until incorporated. Add the salt and the remaining water. Mix until dough feels and looks smooth. You may have to add a bit more flour or water to achieve this consistency; do this in very small increments, like 1 teaspoon of either flour or water at a time. Let each incorporate and check for desired consistency. When the dough is smooth, and the bowl is free from dry flour, add the oil. Mix until well incorporated.

While the dough bakes, spread the walnuts out on another baking sheet, and bake until toasted, about 8 minutes. Let cool, then finely chop. Meanwhile, beat 3 cups of the heavy cream, the pumpkin pie puree and 3 tablespoons of the confectioners' sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until stiff peaks form, about 5 minutes. Put 1 of the baked dough rounds on a cutting board, and center a 9-inch round cake pan on top of it. Use the cake pan as your guide to trim the dough with a knife into a 9-inch circle.

Make sure you show this beauty off at the table before you carve it. Garnish your serving platter with fresh herb sprigs and citrus wedges.; Position a rack in the lower third of the oven; preheat to 475degreesF. Remove giblets and neck from turkey cavities and reserve for making gravy. Place the turkey, breast-side up, on a rack in a large roasting pan; pat dry with paper towels. Mix minced herbs, oil, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Rub the herb mixture all over the turkey, under the skin and onto the breast meat. Place aromatics and 10 of the herb sprigs in the cavity. Tuck the wing tips under the turkey. Tie the legs together with kitchen string. Add 3 cups water and the remaining 10 herb sprigs to the pan. Roast the turkey until the skin is golden brown, 45 minutes. Remove the turkey from the oven. If using a remote digital thermometer, insert it into the deepest part of the thigh, close to the joint. Cover the breast with a double layer of foil, cutting as necessary to conform to the breast. Reduce oven temperature to 350degrees and continue roasting for 11/4 to 13/4 hours more. If the pan dries out, tilt the turkey to let juices run out of the cavity into the pan and add 1 cup water. The turkey is done when the thermometer (or an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh without touching bone) registers 165degreesF. Transfer the turkey to a serving platter and cover with foil. Let the turkey rest for 20 minutes. Remove string and carve.
