Cook until the top of the crepe is no longer wet and the bottom has turned light brown. Run a spatula around the edge of the skillet to loosen; flip the crepe, and cook until the other side has turned light brown. Stack the crepes in a clean kitchen towel, placing waxed paper between each.

Instructions

  1. 1 Combine bread flour, yeast, salt, and water for dough in a bowl. Stir with a wooden spoon and mix until a very wet, soft, and sticky dough forms. Cover and leave at room temperature for at least 12 hours.
  2. 2 When ready to make the bialys, heat olive oil for filling in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion and salt and cook, stirring occasionally until onion softens, sweetens, and turns golden brown, about 10 minutes. Turn off the heat and add bread crumbs, 2 teaspoons poppy seeds, green onion, and cayenne pepper. Stir to combine and cool down until needed.
  3. 3 Uncover dough; it should be bubbly. Scrape it away from the sides of the bowl with a spatula and transfer onto a floured work surface. Dust a little flour over top and gently press dough with your hands to flatten. Divide it into 8 equal portions and roll each into a ball, using a bit of flour as needed. Stretch each ball gently and tuck dough under the bottom; place on a baking sheet lined with generously floured parchment paper or a silicone liner (such as Silpat®). Dust the tops with flour and carefully cover with a dish towel; let proof until just about doubled in size, 45 to 60 minutes.
  4. 4 Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).
  5. 5 Flour your fingers and pick up one dough ball. Press and pull on the center to form it into a ring shape; the center of the dough will be thin and the edges will be thicker. Make sure the centers are very thin but be careful not to tear them open. Repeat with remaining balls.
  6. 6 Fill the center of each with no more than a rounded teaspoon of onion-poppy seed filling, then gently press the filling up the sides toward the outer rings. (You will have extra filling.) Spray bialys with some cold water and sprinkle poppy seeds over top.
  7. 7 Bake in the center of the preheated oven until puffed and nicely browned, about 12 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and cool for about 20 minutes before serving.

Place the plastic wrap back over the steak and pound a few times with the meat mallet. Repeat to season the other side with salt, pepper, and remaining bread crumbs.
  2. 2 Set a pan over high heat. Add 2 tablespoons melted clarified butter and wait until it starts to smoke. Quickly and carefully add steak to the pan and cook for 1 minute. Flip steak and reduce heat to medium-high; cook until you see a little bit of pink juice pool on top of the steak, about 1 more minute. Flip again, turn off the heat, and transfer steak to a warm plate.
  3. 3 Let the pan cool for 30 to 60 seconds, then add 1 teaspoon melted clarified butter. Turn heat to medium and add egg. Break the egg white so it's all the same thickness and the yolk is in the center. Add a pinch of salt and cook until egg white is cooked through with brown and crispy edges. Place the egg on top of the steak.
  4. 4 Add room temperature butter and hot sauce to the warm pan. Swirl the pan until the butter has melted and emulsified into the hot sauce. Stir in water if sauce is too thick or starts to separate.

Instructions

  1. 1 Place each chicken breast on a cutting board between 2 pieces of parchment paper. Being careful not to pound all the way through, use a mallet or a foil-wrapped brick to flatten each breast to a thickness of 1/4 inch.
  2. 2 Cut ham and Swiss cheese slices in half so you have 4 pieces of each. Stack 1 piece ham and 1 piece of cheese in the middle of each flattened chicken breast. Roll up like a jelly roll, tucking the ham and cheese inside the breast as you roll. Secure the ends and sides with toothpicks so the cheese won't run out. Transfer to the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes, or up to 4 hours.
  3. 3 Preheat an air fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), if recommended by the manufacturer.
  4. 4 Combine flour, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Place beaten egg in second bowl. Place bread crumbs in a third bowl.
  5. 5 Dip each chicken bundle in flour mixture, then in egg, and finally in bread crumbs to coat. If you notice any spots that are just coated in flour, lightly pat with beaten egg and bread crumbs. Gently pat each bundle with melted butter and place in the air fryer basket.
  6. 6 Air-fry until crust is nicely browned and chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

  5. 5 Spread cheese sauce evenly over cauliflower. Dust with bread crumbs and Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese. Drizzle olive oil on top and sprinkle with a pinch of cayenne pepper.
  6. 6 Bake in the preheated oven until browned and bubbling, about 30 minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh chives.

Instructions

  1. 1 Cut bottom shell of lobster tails using kitchen shears along each side where it meets the top shell; do not remove the shell at this point.
  2. 2 Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Place lobster tails cut side down in the butter. Cook, covered, about 3 minutes. Turn lobster tails over (they are curved so will lean to 1 side); cover and cook 1 minute. Lean them to the other side; cover and cook 1 minute more.
  3. 3 Remove from heat. Transfer lobster tails to a bowl. Remove any shell pieces from the skillet.
  4. 4 Place 1 tablespoon butter in the skillet over medium heat; add shallots and pinch of salt. Cook and stir until pan starts to deglaze and shallots soften, 3 to 4 minutes. Add mushrooms; cook stir until golden brown, 5 to 6 minutes. Add flour; stir until mushrooms are coated and cook for 2 minutes. Pour in cognac; use a kitchen torch to flame cognac to burn off alcohol. This will take just a few seconds. Add milk; cook and stir until pan is completely deglazed and milk begins to thicken and turn bubbly, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in creme fraiche. Let cool.
  5. 5 Remove lobster meat from the shell, leaving top shell intact. Remove any bits of bottom shell from the meat.
  6. 6 Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a baking pan with crinkled up foil. Make 4 channel-like indentations in the foil to hold and stabilize the lobster tails as they bake.
  7. 7 Slice lobster meat down the middle and check for and remove any dark veins. Chop into 1/2-inch pieces. Transfer meat to a mixing bowl. Add cooled sauce, tarragon, pinch of salt, and cayenne pepper. Stir gently until well blended.
  8. 8 Divide mixture among the lobster tail shells; place in prepared foil-lined pan. Sprinkle each lobster tail with about 1/2 teaspoon bread crumbs and 1/2 teaspoon grated cheese. Drizzle melted butter on the stuffed shells.
  9. 9 Bake in preheated oven until nicely browned and heated through, about 10 minutes. If you like, you can turn on the broiler and broil 1 minute until tops are golden and crispy.

Instructions

  1. 1 Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Spread flour out in a thin, even layer on a baking sheet.
  2. 2 Roast flour in the preheated oven until medium brown in color, 10 to 15 minutes; stir often and watch carefully to avoid burning. Remove flour from the baking sheet immediately once the desired color has been reached; set aside in a shallow bowl to cool.
  3. 3 Melt butter in a large, heavy pot over medium heat. Add onion and cook and stir until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Transfer onion to a large mixing bowl. In a small bowl, mix the cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves; stir spice mix into onion. Place ground pork, parsley, egg, and bread crumbs in the bowl, and mix to combine thoroughly. Form meat mixture into 1-inch meatballs; roll each meatball in the roasted flour. Reserve unused flour.
  4. 4 Pour chicken broth into the pot and bring to a boil over medium heat. Carefully add the meatballs, stirring to keep them from sticking to the bottom. Add the bay leaf. Simmer meatballs 20 minutes. Add potatoes and simmer until potatoes are tender and the broth has reduced, about 20 minutes longer. Transfer meatballs to a bowl with a slotted spoon.
  5. 5 Remove and discard bay leaf. Mix remaining roasted flour and cold water together in a cup. Gradually whisk flour mixture into the simmering broth to thicken. Bring stew to a full boil. Cook, stirring constantly, until gravy thickens, about 5 minutes.
  6. 6 Season with salt and black pepper. Return meatballs to stew and serve.
