Instructions

  1. 1 Flatten dough into a rough rectangle on a generously floured work surface. Flour top of dough and roll out to a thickness of 1/4 to 1/2 inch.
  2. 2 Leaving about one inch of the long edge uncovered, arrange salami slices in a single row without overlapping them. Create a second single-layer row, leaving a wider uncovered edge on the other side. Spread tomato sauce over salami. Generously cover with grated cheese, parsley, and oregano. Brush the dough edges with water.
  3. 3 Begin rolling from the long edge closest to the salami. Roll fairly tightly without pressing or stretching the dough too much to allow it room to rise, pinching in the ends as you go. Carefully transfer the roll, seam-side down, to a rimmed baking sheet lined with a silicon mat. Cover with a dry towel and allow to rise until doubled in volume, 60 to 90 minutes.
  4. 4 Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  5. 5 Lightly brush top and sides of loaf with olive oil. Cut 1-inch deep slits diagonally across the top of the loaf, about 2 inches apart. Dust with grated cheese.
  6. 6 Bake on the center rack of the preheated oven until nicely browned and cooked through, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely before slicing, about 30 minutes.

  2. 2 Place flour, salt, sugar, and grated cheese in a mixing bowl. Stir together until well mixed. Add rosemary; drizzle with olive oil and add water. Mix with a fork until mixture comes together in a fairly sticky dough and pulls away from the sides of the bowl, 3 to 5 minutes.
  3. 3 Transfer dough onto floured surface and add flour as you knead the dough. Knead until it no longer sticks to work surface, 4 to 5 minutes. Divide dough in half.
  4. 4 Dust work surface with flour. Roll out dough to 1/8-inch thickness or less. Brush or mist surface of dough very lightly with water. Sprinkle with coarse sea salt. Prick the entire surface of dough with the tines of a fork to prevent crackers from puffing too much when baking.
  5. 5 Cut each rolled out half into about 30 pieces with a pizza wheel. You can cut them out in squares, rectangles, or triangles--your choice. Transfer onto prepared baking sheet with a bench scraper or your floured fingers (dough will be very sticky).
  6. 6 Bake in preheated oven until perfectly browned and crunchy, 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the thickness.

  3. 3 Place pan over medium-high heat. Cheese will slowly start to melt. When cheese starts to bubble and turn golden brown, about 4 minutes, pour eggs evenly over cheese. Reduce heat to low. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and cayenne. Cover and let eggs cook on low until they are set, checking after the first 30 seconds. For 2 eggs, this should take about 1 minute, total cooking time.
  4. 4 Remove pan from heat. Carefully use a spatula to fold parmalet in half. Transfer to a serving plate.

  1. 1 Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Generously grease a 12-cup standard muffin pan with 2 teaspoons oil.
  2. 2 Roll dough on a lightly floured surface to a thickness of 1/8 inch. Pick it up from the edges to make sure it's not stuck to the surface, then cut out twelve 4-inch circles. Reroll the dough to cut all 12 circles if necessary.
  3. 3 Place each circle into a prepared muffin cup, making sure it's centered. Press and push dough up the sides of the cups, getting close to, but not all the way up to the top. When all circles have been placed in the muffin pan, go around one more time to push and press on each one.
  4. 4 Put 1 tablespoon provolone cheese into each cup, followed by 1 tablespoon cooked sausage and 2 teaspoons cooked peppers.
  5. 5 Lightly press on the fillings to compress, then top with 1 rounded tablespoon mozzarella cheese and 2 tablespoons pizza sauce, pushing the sauce down gently into the fillings; it's okay that the fillings will be slightly higher than the pan. Sprinkle Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese generously over top.
  6. 6 Bake in the upper center of the preheated oven until the tops are beautifully browned, 30 to 35 minutes.
  7. 7 Remove from the oven and cool in the pan for 10 to 15 minutes. Go around the edge of each muffin with a knife, then use a fork or small spatula to remove from the pan.
  8. 8 Let cool on a rack for a few minutes, then garnish with parsley and serve.

Instructions

  1. 1 Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Generously grease a casserole dish with 1 tablespoon butter.
  2. 2 Bring a generously salted pot of water to a rolling boil over high heat.
  3. 3 Remove stems from beans by trimming with a knife or snapping them off with your fingers. Cut beans in half.
  4. 4 Add beans to the boiling water, stir, and cook until just barely tender, 5 to 6 minutes, testing often to make sure you don't overcook them.
  5. 5 Remove beans with a strainer and immediately place in a bowl of cold water to stop the cooking process.
  6. 6 Once beans have cooled to the touch, use your hands to drain and transfer them into the prepared casserole. It's okay if they're still a bit wet.
  7. 7 Season beans with pepper, salt, and Dijon mustard; mix until beans are well coated. Pour in cream, scatter Comté cheese over top, and sprinkle with Parmigiano-Reggiano.
  8. 8 Combine melted butter and bread crumbs in a small bowl. Stir until well combined and mixture resembles wet sand. Spoon and sprinkle bread crumbs over the casserole, then dust with cayenne.
  9. 9 Bake in the center of the preheated oven until browned and bubbly, 15 to 20 minutes.
  10. 10 Let cool for 10 minutes before serving.

Instructions

  1. 1 Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Set a wire rack on a rimmed baking sheet.
  2. 2 Rinse and scrub potatoes, then prick with a fork. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Set on the prepared rack.
  3. 3 Bake potatoes in the preheated oven until the internal temperature is 205 to 212 degrees F (96 to 100 degrees C), about 50 minutes.
  4. 4 While potatoes are baking, remove meat from rotisserie chicken; discard skin and bones. Pull or cut meat into chunks and keep warm.
  5. 5 Prepare Alfredo sauce: Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat until sizzling. Add garlic in a single layer; cook until soft and fragrant but not brown, about 1 minute. Reduce heat and pour in half-and-half and cream; whisk to incorporate. Add Parmesan cheese and pepper and continue to whisk, until cheese is melted.
  6. 6 Place vegetables in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high power until warm, about 3 minutes. Chop vegetables into bite-sized pieces if desired, and mix with chicken.
  7. 7 When potatoes are finished baking, remove from the oven. Cut a slit into each potato with a fork or a knife, leaving 1/2 inch uncut on edge. Use both hands to press each potato in towards the center so it opens up. This will help let you stuff the potato.
  8. 8 Top potatoes with chicken mixture and drizzle with Alfredo sauce.
