• quince
• apple cider
• sugar
• lemon
• orange zest
• heavy cream
• vanilla sugar

Instructions

1. 1 Combine quinces, hard cider, and white sugar in a pressure cooker. Close cooker securely and place pressure regulator over vent according to manufacturer's instructions. Heat until steam escapes in a steady flow and makes a whistling sound, about 10 minutes. Adjust temperature until regulator is gently rocking; cook until quinces are soft, 15 to 20 minutes. Let pressure release naturally according to manufacturer's instructions, 5 to 10 minutes. Unlock lid and remove.
2. 2 Transfer cooked quinces and liquid to a serving bowl; stir in lemon juice, orange flower water, and orange zest.
3. 3 Beat heavy cream in a separate chilled glass or metal bowl using an electric mixer until frothy; gradually add vanilla sugar, continuing to beat until soft peaks form. Fold in crème fraîche. Top quince compote servings with whipped cream-crème fraîche.

• pistachio
• cinnamon
• butter
• phyllo dough
• sugar
• water
• honey
• clove
• vanilla extract

Instructions

1. 1 Place walnuts, pistachios, and cinnamon in bowl of a food processor. Pulse on and off until mixture is chopped but not too fine.
2. 2 Brush bottom of 9-inch round baking pan with melted butter. Place one round of phyllo dough in the pan; add a second round of dough. Drip about 1 tablespoon of melted butter over the top. Add 2 more sheets and drizzle with butter. Add 2 more sheets and drip with butter creating 6 layers for the bottom. (While you work keep the phyllo sheets covered with a damp, nearly dry, cotton towel to keep dough from drying out.)
3. 3 Sprinkle with 1/3 of the nut mixture. Top with a sheet of phyllo and drip with melted butter; repeat with 1 more sheet of filo. Add another 1/3 of the nut mixture.
4. 4 Place another sheet of phyllo on the nuts; drip with butter. Top with another sheet and drip with butter. Add the remaining nut mixture.
5. 5 Top with 2 sheets of phyllo; drip with butter. Add 2 more sheets; drip with butter. Top with the last 2 sheets and drizzle generously with the remaining butter. Cover pan with plastic and refrigerate until completely chilled, about 1 hour.
6. 6 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Ingredients

• ✓ orange flower water
• tahini
• farina cereal
• white sugar
• baking powder
• yogurt
• butter
• almond
• white sugar
• water
• lemon juice
• butter

Instructions

1. 1 Line a 9x13-inch glass baking dish with aluminum foil and generously butter the foil. Spread the tahini evenly over the bottom of the prepared pan in a thin layer.
2. 2 Mix together farina cereal with 1 1/2 cup of sugar and baking powder in a bowl. Mix in the yogurt and 1 tablespoon of softened butter gently with your hands until the dough is smooth. Spread dough out into the prepared baking dish. Pat the surface smooth. Cover the dish with foil, and allow to stand at room temperature for 2 hours. With a sharp knife, cut the dough into 16 squares; push an almond half gently into the top of each square.
3. 3 Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
4. 4 Bake in the preheated oven until the dessert is set and the top is lightly golden brown, about 30 minutes.
5. 5 While the dessert is baking, make the syrup. Place 2 cups of sugar into a saucepan with the water, and bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly to dissolve sugar. Stir in the lemon juice, and boil the syrup for 5 minutes; stir in butter and orange flower water until combined. Pour the hot syrup over the dessert as soon as it comes out of the oven. Let cool for 1 to 2 hours to let the syrup absorb before serving.

Ingredients

• ✓ orange flower water
• ✓ orange flower water
• ✓ orange flower water
• pine nut
• cornstarch
• lemon
• vanilla powder
• baking powder
• egg
• sugar
• almond
• salt
• lemon juice
• egg
• vegetable oil
• all-purpose flour
• lemon juice
• water
• sugar

Instructions

1. 1 Prepare the almonds the day before. Bring 6 cups of water to a boil. Remove from heat, and add the almonds. Let the almonds soak in water for about 5 minutes, then drain and peel. Spread the almonds on baking sheets, and bake at 200 degrees F(95 degrees C) until completely dry and toasted. This takes several hours, and needs to be prepared ahead. Be careful not to burn the nuts, as this will give a bitter taste to the filling.
2. 2 Combine 1 cup sugar and 1 cup water in a saucepan, and bring to a boil. Add 1 teaspoon lemon juice, reduce heat to low, and let it simmer until syrupy, about 30 to 40 minutes. Stir in orange blossom water, and remove from heat. Set sugar syrup aside.
3. 3 Combine flour and salt in a large mixing bowl. Make a hole in the center, and pour oil, egg, 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon orange blossom water into the center. Mix with fingers until the dough resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually sprinkle with warm water while mixing until the dough becomes soft and pliable. Divide into 4 equal portions. Cover dough with a wet cloth, and set aside.
4. 4 In a food processor, finely grind the almonds. Measure 3 cups of the finely ground almonds into a mixing bowl, and stir together with 1 cup sugar, baking powder, vanilla powder, lemon zest, and 2 tablespoons orange flower water. Mix in three eggs one at a time, stirring constantly; mix until you get a sticky, paste-like mixture.
5. 5 Sprinkle cornstarch on the rolling surface to prevent sticking. Roll each portion of dough very thinly, 1 to 2 millimeters (1/16 inch). Cut the rolled dough into circles of about 10 centimeters (4 inches) in diameter each. Lightly wipe the surface of each circle with cornstarch, and fit into a tart mold, cornstarch side down to prevent sticking. Gently press the dough onto the sides and bottom of the mold, and trim extra dough from around the rim. Fill three quarters of each mold with the almond filling.
6. 6 Bake on the top shelf at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the surface of the tart is golden and the dough is firm. Remove the tarts from the molds as soon as they come out of the oven. Dip each tart in the sugar syrup while still hot. Stick a pine nut into the middle of each tart for decoration. Place on a wire rack to drain.

2. 2 Meanwhile, place raisins in a small saucepan; cover with boiling water. Cook over low heat until raisins plump, about 10 minutes. Drain. Set aside.
3. 3 Combine flour and ⅓ cup superfine sugar in the bowl of a food processor; add butter and pulse until mixture looks like cornmeal. Pulse in 1 egg yolk; pulse in ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until dough holds together when squeezed. Wrap dough in plastic wrap; refrigerate at least 2 hours.
4. 4 Combine cooked rice, milk, orange zest, and 1 tablespoon white sugar in a medium saucepan over low heat, stirring frequently, until filling is thick and creamy. Remove from heat.
5. 5 Whisk remaining 3 egg yolks and ⅓ cup white sugar together in a large bowl; gradually add hot rice mixture, 1 cup at a time, whisking constantly. Stir in raisins, ricotta cheese, orange flower water, vanilla, and cinnamon. Cool filling to room temperature.
6. 6 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
7. 7 Roll ¾ dough into an 11-inch circle; place into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch springform pan. Cover dough lightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate. Roll out remaining ¼ dough into a 10-inch circle. Cut into lattice strips. Set aside.
8. 8 Beat 4 egg whites in a glass, metal, or ceramic bowl until stiff peaks form. Fold ⅓ whites into rice filling to lighten, then quickly fold in remaining ⅔ whites until no streaks remain.
9. 9 Pour filling into dough-lined pan. Start with the longest lattice dough strips and lay the first 2 in an X in the center of the pie. Alternate horizontal and vertical strips, weaving them in an over-and-under pattern. Use the shortest strips for the edges of the lattice. Seal lattice strips to bottom of pastry edges.
10. 10 Bake in the preheated oven until pastry is golden brown, about 1 hour. Cool about 4 hours. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
