Ingredients

• ✓ black pepper
• water
• egg
• pepperoni
• salami
• ham
• turkey sausage
• egg
• kosher salt
• pecorino romano cheese
• mozzarella cheese
• ricotta cheese
• water
• egg
• olive oil
• butter
• salt
• all-purpose flour

Instructions

1. 1 To make the crust: Combine flour, salt, butter, and olive oil in a large bowl. Blend butter into flour with a pastry cutter or your fingertips until it resembles coarse crumbs. Make a well in the center of flour mixture; pour egg into the well, and mix with a fork until egg is mixed in, about 1 minute. Add cold water and mix briefly with a fork. Switch to mixing with your hands and press mixture into a ball. If it seems dry, sprinkle in some more water, 1 teaspoon at a time, until dough comes together.
2. 2 Transfer dough to a work surface and press into a disk. Wrap in plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator to rest for at least 1 hour.
3. 3 Make the filling while the dough is resting: Combine drained ricotta cheese, mozzarella cheese, Pecorino Romano cheese, salt, black pepper, beaten eggs, cooked Italian sausage, smoked ham, salami, and pepperoni in a large bowl. Mix thoroughly until extremely well combined; don't worry about overmixing. Cover and place in the refrigerator until ready to use.
4. 4 Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Rub a 9-inch springform pan with olive oil and dust with flour.
5. 5 Place dough on a lightly floured surface. Cut off 1/3 of the dough and set aside for the top crust. Roll out the remaining dough for the bottom crust, using only as much flour as needed, into a 15-inch circle, about 1/8 inch thick. Roll the dough onto the rolling pin and transfer to the prepared pan. Tuck the dough into the bottom and up the sides of the pan, being careful not to stretch it. Remove any excess dough, dampen it with water, and use it to fill in where needed.
6. 6 Transfer filling into the pan, press firmly into the edges to ensure there are no air pockets, and smooth out the top.
7. 7 Roll remaining dough into a circle that's slightly wider than the pan. Roll dough onto the rolling pin and transfer to the pan. Position the top crust properly and press to seal it with the side edges.
8. 8 Mix egg and water for egg wash together in a small bowl.
9. 9 Brush egg wash on top of dough to moisten entire surface. Trim off excess dough if desired. Fold the side dough down from the pan edges onto the top crust and crimp edges with your fingertips until fully sealed. Brush once more with egg wash.
10. 10 Place in the center of the preheated oven, and immediately reduce the heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Bake until top crust is a beautiful golden brown, about 1 hour 15 minutes.
11. 11 Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes. Carefully remove the ring and let cool another 15 minutes before slicing into wedges.

Instructions

1. 1 Melt the margarine in a large saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir the apples and pears in the melted margarine for about 5 minutes. Add the vegetable broth, sage, pepper, and bay leaf to the pan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low. Place a cover on the saucepan and allow the mixture to simmer until hot and the apples and pears are tender, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool for 5 minutes.
2. 2 Pour about 1/3 of the soup into a blender, filling the pitcher no more than halfway full. Hold the lid of the blender in place with a towel and carefully start the blender, using a few quick pulses to get the soup moving before leaving it on to puree. Puree in batches until smooth; pour into a clean pot. Alternately, you can use a stick blender and puree the soup right in the saucepan. Return the pureed soup to the saucepan and warm over medium heat until completely reheated. Garnish with parsley to serve.

Ingredients

• ✓ black pepper
• dark chocolate chip
• ginger
• cinnamon
• salt
• cayenne pepper
• heavy cream
• dark chocolate chip
• gingersnap cookie

Instructions

1. 1 Add chocolate chips to a heat-proof mixing bowl; add ginger, cinnamon, black pepper, salt, and cayenne. Heat cream over medium heat until it just starts to simmer. Immediately remove from heat and pour hot cream over chocolate. Shake bowl slightly to fully cover the chocolate; let sit for 2 minutes. Slowly whisk until well combined and a thick, glossy ganache forms.
2. 2 Cover ganache with plastic wrap and let cool to room temperature or until firm enough to scoop, about 15 minutes. Form about 2 teaspoons of the ganache into balls using a small sorbet scoop, or roll by hand. Place balls onto a baking sheet lined with silicone or parchment paper. Refrigerate until cold and firm, about 15 minutes, then re-roll as needed to smoothen.
3. 3 Place a heat-proof bowl over a pot of hot water on the lowest heat settling. Add most of the chocolate chips, reserving about 1/3 cup, to the bowl and let melt, about 5 minutes. In the meantime, break gingersnap in half and place on a plate next to a microplane. Stir the reserved chocolate chips into the melted chocolate until they disappear. Remove from heat.
4. 4 Dip truffles into the melted chocolate by hand or by holding each truffle with a fork and spooning the chocolate on top. Place truffles on the baking sheet and swirl the tops with your finger. Grate the gingersnap on top. Let truffles rest on the baking sheet until the coating dries and hardens completely, trimming away excess chocolate from the bases using the back of a knife if desired.

Instructions

1. 1 Heat apple juice in the microwave in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals until very warm, but not boiling. Add chai tea bags, cover, and let steep for 10 minutes. Discard tea bags.
2. 2 Meanwhile, peel, seed, and chop apples; toss them in a bowl with lemon juice to prevent browning.
3. 3 Combine cinnamon, ginger, cloves, cardamom, and black pepper in a small bowl.
4. 4 Combine apples, apple juice-chai tea mixture, cinnamon-spice mixture, brown sugar, butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt in a large pot. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until apples soften, about 30 minutes.
5. 5 Transfer 1/4 cup of apple liquid from the pot to a small bowl. Add cornstarch and whisk until completely dissolved. Stir mixture back into the pot. Continue cooking over medium heat, stirring often, until mixture thickens, about 5 minutes. Pour filling into a bowl and set aside to cool, about 1 hour.
6. 6 Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
7. 7 Pour filling into one pie crust. Press remaining pie crust over apple filling; flute the edges to seal or use a fork dipped in egg to press them down. Brush remaining egg on top, then cut several slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape. Cover edges of pie with aluminum foil to avoid burning.
8. 8 Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Gently remove foil and continue to bake until golden and bubbly, about 15 minutes more. Allow to cool until pie is warm, but not hot, before serving.
