• sage
• nutmeg

Instructions

1. 1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. 2 Fill a large saucepan with water. Add potatoes and 1 teaspoon salt; bring to a boil. Continue to boil until potatoes are very soft, about 15 minutes. Drain and run through a food mill or a ricer for a nice, smooth consistency. Place potatoes in a bowl and refrigerate until they are cool, 15 to 20 minutes; this will help keep them fluffy.
3. 3 Dust 2 sheet pans with flour and set aside.
4. 4 Mix cooled potatoes and 1 1/2 cups flour together on a clean work surface. Knead until dough is soft and smooth, 4 to 5 minutes, adding only enough flour so dough comes together and is not tacky.
5. 5 Cut dough into 4 equal parts. Roll 1/4 of the dough into a 3/4-inch log. Cut the log into 3/4-inch pieces. Roll the pieces over a gnocchi board or the back of a fork to create ridges and place onto a floured sheet pan in a single layer. Repeat with the rest of the dough. Let rolled gnocchi dry for 1 hour before cooking.
6. 6 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
7. 7 Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook gnocchi in the boiling water until they float to the top, 2 to 4 minutes. Drain and set aside.
8. 8 Melt butter for cheese sauce in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Add chicken stock and continue to whisk until it thickens, about 3 minutes. Add Fontina cheese and Parmesan cheese; stir using a spoon until melted. Stir in sage and nutmeg. Stir in cooked gnocchi and transfer to a casserole or baking dish.
9. 9 Bake in the preheated oven until top is golden brown and bubbly, 15 to 20 minutes.

Instructions

1. 1 Place a baking sheet on the lowest rack of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
2. 2 Press pastry into a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate. Cover with two layers of aluminum foil, then add pie weights or dried beans.
3. 3 Slice heirloom and Roma tomatoes into 1/2-inch-thick rounds. Remove seeds with your fingers and discard. Transfer six heirloom slices to a paper towel-lined plate; cover with more paper towels and set aside for decorating the pie. Arrange remaining heirloom slices and all Roma slices on a wire rack.
4. 4 Place pie crust onto the baking sheet in the preheated oven. Place the wire rack with tomatoes onto a higher rack. Reduce the oven temperature to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Bake until the bottom of the pie crust has lost its translucent raw look and the edges have just started to color, 12 to 15 minutes.
5. 5 Leaving tomatoes in the oven, remove pie crust and carefully lift out the foil and weights. Cover the edges with foil to prevent them from burning. Poke bottom of crust several times with a fork to keep it from puffing up. Return pie crust to the baking sheet and bake until light golden brown on the bottom, about 8 more minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool.
6. 6 Continue baking tomatoes until wilted, 15 to 20 more minutes (for a total of 40 minutes). Remove from the oven and let cool for about 15 minutes; keep the oven on.

Add leek; cook until bacon is crisp and leek is soft and brown, about 5 minutes. Transfer mixture to a paper towel-lined plate and let cool, about 5 minutes.
8. 8 Combine Cheddar, Fontina, mayonnaise, basil, egg, Dijon, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Add bacon-leek mixture and mix until well combined.
