Ingredients

• ✓ lemon zest
• pork belly
• pork loin
• garlic
• olive oil
• fennel seed
• coriander
• sage
• rosemary
• oregano
• cayenne pepper
• salt

Instructions

1. 1 Score the skin of the pork belly in a diamond pattern; avoid cutting all the way through to the meat.
2. 2 Combine garlic, olive oil, lemon zest, fennel seeds, coriander, sage, rosemary leaves, oregano, and cayenne pepper in a blender; pulse into a paste.
3. 3 Rub pork belly and pork loin with salt. Flip pork belly so the skin is facing down. Place the loin in the center and wrap the belly around it. Cut off any overlapping ends of the belly and any overhanging portions of the loin; you want a nice, neat package.
4. 4 Unwrap the belly from the loin. Rub all sides of the loin with the paste; don't skimp-use all of it. Re-roll the belly around the loin. Pat the skin dry with a paper towel and use kitchen twine to tie it off in 2-inch segments. (This will make it hold its appealing cylinder shape as it cooks.)
5. 5 Place roast on a wire rack on top of a rimmed pan or pot. Place in the refrigerator, uncovered, until the skin is air-dried, about 48 hours.
6. 6 When ready to cook, remove roast from the refrigerator. Transfer to a roasting pan and let sit for 1 hour.
7. 7 Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).
8. 8 Place the roast in the lower half of the preheated oven and cook for 30 minutes. Reduce heat to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C) and cook until meat is tender and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center reads 145 degrees F (63 degrees C), about 2 1/2 more hours.
9. 9 Remove from the oven and tent with foil; let sit for 30 minutes. Remove twine and cut into 1-inch slices. Serve immediately.

• red thai chile pepper
• garlic
• clam
• white wine
• spaghetti
• flat-leaf parsley
• black pepper

Instructions

1. 1 Bring water to a boil in a stockpot; add salt. Reduce heat to a simmer.
2. 2 Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add oil, followed by chile pepper and garlic. Cook and stir gently until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Remove garlic and chile pepper; discard. Add clams to the fragrant oil.
3. 3 Pour wine over the clams and cover immediately. Let simmer until clams have opened, about 7 minutes. Remove clams using a slotted spoon to a large bowl. Cover to avoid losing their steam. Discard any unopened clams.
4. 4 Pour four ladles of salted water into the skillet with the juice of the clams. Bring to a boil over high heat. Add spaghetti; move around with a pasta fork to keep from sticking together. Cook, adding a ladle or two of salted water as needed to keep spaghetti barely covered, until pasta is tender yet firm to the bite, 8 to 10 minutes. Add clams and sprinkle in lemon zest. Give the skillet a hefty toss to gently mix the clams in the thickened sauce.
5. 5 Divide into four pasta bowls. Cover with parsley and serve immediately with empty plates on the side for the shells while eating.

Ingredients

• ✓ lemon zest
• herb
• cherry tomato
• heavy cream
• white wine
• clam juice
• lobster meat
• black pepper
• lemon juice
• tarragon
• basil
• chive
• shallot
• garlic
• butter
• mascarpone cheese
• kosher salt
• egg
• all-purpose flour

Instructions

1. 1 Place flour in a large bowl and create a well in the center. Add eggs and 1/4 teaspoon salt to well; beat using a fork to break up egg mixture. Slowly begin to incorporate flour into egg mixture, stirring from the center and gradually working outwards until shaggy pieces of dough begin to form. Use your hands to bring shaggy dough pieces together to form a shaggy ball. Transfer shaggy ball and any remaining flour in bowl to a clean work surface. Knead, pressing any loose flour into dough, until dough is smooth and elastic, 10 to 12 minutes.
2. 2 Wrap dough tightly in plastic wrap; let rest at room temperature at least 1 hour or up to 2 hours, or in a refrigerator up to 1 day. (If refrigerating, let come to room temperature before rolling.)
3. 3 Place mascarpone in a small bowl; set aside. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and shallot; cook, stirring often, until softened, about 2 minutes. Stir shallot mixture into mascarpone in bowl along with herbs, lemon zest and juice, pepper, and remaining salt until combined. Gently stir in lobster. Chill, covered, for 15 minutes.
4. 4 While lobster filling chills, unwrap dough, and divide evenly into 2 portions. Place 1 dough portion on a clean work surface; wrap remaining dough portion in plastic wrap. Shape dough into a rectangle; press dough to flatten using heel of hand. Starting with the widest setting, pass dough through pasta machine 2 times. Fold the outer tapered ends of pasta sheet in toward the center like an envelope, so that the width of the pasta sheet is similar to the width of the pasta roller. Pass pasta sheet through widest setting 1 more time. Continue rolling pasta through machine, reducing roller width 1 notch at a time, until sheet is about 1/16-inch thick and you can see the outline of your hand through the sheet. Cut sheet in half crosswise to make them easier to work with. Cover 1 sheet loosely with plastic wrap. Lightly dust work surface with flour and place remaining dough sheet on surface.
5. 5 Leaving a 1-inch edge from the short sides of the dough sheet, place 1-tablespoon mounds of lobster filling 2 inches apart along center of sheet (about 4 to 6 mounds per sheet). Lightly brush dough around lobster filling with water. Loosely lift long edge of dough sheet and fold over filling, lining up edges. Press on dough around each mound to seal and press out air pockets. Using a fluted pastry wheel or pizza cutter, trim the unfolded edge of the ravioli. Cut pasta between mounds to form individual ravioli. Place ravioli on a baking sheet lined with a clean kitchen towel. Cover with a second clean kitchen towel. Repeat process with remaining pasta sheet, dough, and filling.
6. 6 Cut remaining 4 tablespoons butter into 4 pieces. Bring clam juice and wine to a simmer in a large skillet over high heat. Simmer, undisturbed, until reduced to about 1/3 cup, about 7 minutes. Gradually stir in remaining 4 tablespoons butter, one piece at a time, waiting until butter is nearly melted before adding the next piece. Stir in heavy cream. Cook over high heat, stirring often, until sauce is thick enough to lightly coat back of a spoon, about 2 minutes. Stir in tomatoes. Remove from heat and cover to keep warm.
7. 7 Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Working in 2 batches if needed, boil ravioli until tender, 4 to 6 minutes. Drain. Divide ravioli among 4 plates. Drizzle cream sauce evenly over ravioli. Garnish with herbs.

2. 2 Whisk in chicken broth, white wine, and lemon juice and bring to a boil. Remove saucepan from heat and whisk in capers, parsley, lemon zest, salt, and pepper. Cover to keep warm until ready to use and gently whisk before serving.
3. 3 Prepare chicken: Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) according to manufacturer's instructions for 10 minutes. Lightly coat the air fryer basket with nonstick spray.
4. 4 Cut each chicken breast in half crosswise. Line a large cutting board with plastic wrap and place chicken breast halves on the cutting board; cover chicken breasts with plastic wrap. Pound each chicken breast half until 1/2-inch thick.
5. 5 Place flour in a medium bowl. Whisk together egg and lemon juice in a second medium bowl. Stir together bread crumbs and cheeses in a third medium bowl. Sprinkle chicken breast halves evenly with pepper and salt.
6. 6 Working in batches, dredge a piece of chicken in flour until well coated. Transfer to the egg mixture and gently toss to coat, then place in the bread crumb mixture and toss again to coat. Transfer to a sheet pan. Repeat process until all chicken has been breaded.
7. 7 Place 2 pieces of breaded chicken in the prepared fryer basket. Spray the top side with nonstick spray, and cook until golden brown, crispy, and a thermometer inserted into thickest portion registers 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), 8 to 10 minutes. Halfway through cook time, flip chicken pieces and spray the top again. Transfer to a platter and repeat to cook remaining chicken.
8. 8 Drizzle with lemon-caper sauce and serve immediately.

• lobster ravioli
• black pepper
• salt
• heavy cream
• tomato
• white wine
• black pepper
• salt
• garlic
• shallot
• butter
• water
• parsley
• black peppercorn
• thyme
• oregano
• basil
• lemon
• celery
• onion
• shrimp

Instructions

1. 1 Peel and devein shrimp, reserving shells and heads. Chop shrimp into bite-sized pieces.
2. 2 To make shrimp stock, combine shrimp shells and heads, onion, and celery in a large pot. Squeeze lemon juice into the pot, then add lemon halves as well. Add dried basil, oregano, thyme, peppercorns, parsley, and water. Cover the pot and bring it to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for 1 hour, skimming away any foam or impurities that have risen to the surface. Strain shrimp stock and set aside.
3. 3 Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook shrimp pieces until pink and almost cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove and set aside. Add shallots to the pan; cook and stir until shallots have softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes.
4. 4 Stir in garlic, lemon zest, salt, and ground pepper. Cook for thirty seconds, then add white wine. Bring to a boil and cook until white wine is reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Add shrimp stock to the pan, bring it to a boil, and simmer until sauce is reduced by half, about 15 minutes.
5. 5 Meanwhile, fill a large pot with heavily salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once water is boiling, stir in ravioli, and return to a boil. Cook uncovered, occasionally stirring, until ravioli float to the top and filling is hot, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain well, reserving a little pasta-cooking water to thin sauce, if necessary.
6. 6 Stir diced tomatoes and cream into shrimp sauce and heat through. Return shrimp to the pan, taste sauce, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Fold ravioli into sauce.
7. 7 Place four ravioli onto each of the four warmed pasta bowls or plates and top with sauce. Garnish pasta with chopped parsley and lemon zest.

Ingredients

• ✓ lemon zest
• ramp
• olive oil
• black peppercorn
• salt
• apple cider vinegar
• honey

Instructions

1. 1 Clean and trim ramps. Place the ramps in a 12-inch skillet. Add 3 tablespoons of the olive oil and toss with tongs to fully coat. Heat the skillet over medium-high heat and cook the ramps until the stems and leaves are gently wilted, 3 to 4 minutes. Sprinkle with the lemon zest and toss to combine. Remove from heat.
2. 2 Meanwhile, inspect two 8-ounce jars for cracks and rings for rust, discarding any defective ones. Immerse in simmering water until ramps are ready. Wash new, unused lids and rings in warm soapy water.
3. 3 Using the tongs, transfer to the two sterile glass jars with sealable lids. Tuck the leaves and stems into the jars with a table knife or spoon. Divide the remaining olive oil between the jars, followed by peppercorns and salt. Set aside.
4. 4 Place vinegar and honey in a small saucepan. Whisk well. Simmer over medium heat for 7 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat. Pour over the ramps to cover. Let cool to room temperature. Seal and place in the refrigerator for up to 2 months.
