Instructions

1. 1 Preheat a heavy cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Pat steak dry with paper towels on both sides. Season generously with salt on both sides.

Ingredients

• ✓ salt
• durum wheat semolina flour
• water

Instructions

1. 1 Mix semolina flour and salt in a large bowl or on a marble work surface. Make a well in the center.
2. 2 Pour water into the well a little at a time, mixing it with flour. Add as much water as needed to make a sticky but compact dough.
3. 3 Knead dough with your hands by flattening the ball, stretching it, and folding top toward center. Turn 45 degrees and repeat until dough is elastic and smooth, but not too soft, about 10 minutes.
4. 4 Shape dough into a ball. Place in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let rest at room temperature for about 30 minutes before using. If you are using cavatelli within a few hours or the following day, wrap in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator.
5. 5 Work with one portion of dough at a time, keeping remaining dough covered to keep it from drying out. Dust a work surface with semolina flour; roll out dough to make a rope, about 1/3 inch thick.
6. 6 Cut off little 1/3-inch-thick pieces. Press and gently drag a small piece of dough toward you with your index and middle finger. The two sides will curl inwards, leaving hollow spaces.
7. 7 Proceed the same way with rest of dough. Transfer cavatelli to a floured surface and sprinkle with more semolina flour. Do not overlap cavatelli or they will stick together. Let dry for about 30 minutes before cooking.

Instructions

1. 1 Mix together semolina flour and salt in a large bowl or on a marble work surface. Form a well in the center. Pour water into the well a little at a time, mixing it in with flour mixture. Add as much water as needed to make a sticky but compact dough.
2. 2 Knead dough with your hands by flattening, stretching, and folding the top towards the center. Turn 45 degrees and repeat until dough is elastic and smooth but not too soft, about 10 minutes.
3. 3 Shape dough into a ball. Place in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let rest at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
4. 4 Dust a work surface with semolina flour. Roll out a portion of dough to make a rope, about 1/3-inch thick; keep remaining dough covered to prevent drying out. Cut rope into 1/3-inch-thick pieces.
5. 5 Working with one dough piece at a time, carefully hold one side with your index finger. Use a knife with a rounded tip in your other hand to gently drag dough towards you. Lift the knife at the end to get a thicker edge and thinner center. Press disk of dough gently against your thumb to curve inward. Repeat with remaining dough.
6. 6 Transfer orecchiette onto a floured surface in a single layer; sprinkle with more semolina flour. Let dry before cooking, about 30 minutes.

6. 6 Keep passing though the machine until you reach an even rectangular sheet of smooth, not sticky, consistency.
7. 7 Pass the dough through the middle setting of your machine and then through the second-to-last to make a long and thin sheet. Trim the sheet into an even rectangle and rub with more flour.
8. 8 Trim off the short edge of the rectangle with a decorative ravioli wheel cutter. Trim the rectangle into strips, about 3/4 inch wide, with a flat ravioli wheel cutter. Section the strips into 1 1/3-inch large pieces with the decorative cutter.
9. 9 Push the sides of each piece towards the centre to form a bow tie and secure with a little dab of water.
10. 10 Proceed the same way with the rest of the dough. Transfer the farfalle to a floured surface and sprinkle with more semolina flour. Do not overlap or they will stick. Let dry for about 30 minutes before cooking.

Ingredients

• ✓ salt
• beef short rib

Instructions

1. 1 Heat water in a sous vide water bath to 133 degrees F (56 degrees C).
2. 2 Trim any areas of fat left on short ribs; coat thoroughly with garlic and salt. Place ribs into a large, resealable plastic bag. (Use two bags if necessary to leave plenty of room between ribs.) Seal, on low pressure if using a vacuum sealer, removing as much air as possible.
3. 3 Submerge the bag fully into the water bath and cook, rotating every 12 to 18 hours, for 60 hours. Increase the heat to 144.5 degrees F (62.5 degrees C) and cook an additional 12 hours.
4. 4 Remove ribs from the water bath; let rest in the bag on a cooling rack placed over a baking sheet until cool enough to handle.
5. 5 Remove ribs from the bag and drain. Place ribs onto a work surface, turn so bones are facing up, and slice meat between the bones to separate. Cut membrane running along the length of each rib; slide the bone loose from the meat. Trim any excess fat and cut into serving portions. Pat ribs dry with paper towels; return to the cooling rack.
6. 6 Heat a skillet until smoking hot. Add ribs and brown quickly, 30 to 60 seconds per side.

Instructions

1. 1 Wrap tofu in a clean towel and place onto a plate. Set another plate on top, and place a 3- to 5-pound weight on top. Press tofu for about 20 minutes; drain and discard the accumulated liquid.

3. 3 Heat oil in a wok or large skillet. To test if the oil is ready, dip a chopstick or wooden spoon in it; if bubbles rise, it is ready. If the oil smokes, it is too hot.
4. 4 Gently place 5 to 8 pieces of tofu at a time in hot oil using metal tongs. Be very careful as oil may splatter; use a splatter guard if possible. Fry tofu until golden, 3 to 4 minutes.
5. 5 Drain tofu on a plate lined with several paper towels. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
