Instructions

  1. 1 Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  2. 2 Place parsnips and carrots in a mixing bowl; sprinkle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Spread vegetables evenly onto a baking sheet.
  3. 3 Roast in the preheated oven until vegetables are tender and parsnips are golden brown, about 30 minutes.
  4. 4 Heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir onion and celery in hot oil until softened and onion is beginning to turn golden brown, about 5 minutes.
  5. 5 Reduce heat to low; stir in butter, brown sugar, garlic, and roasted parsnips and carrots. Continue to cook and stir until vegetables are very soft and beginning to brown, about 5 to 10 minutes.
  6. 6 Season with ginger, cardamom, allspice, nutmeg, and cayenne pepper; stir for 1 minute. Pour in chicken stock; bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, partially cover, and simmer gently for 5 to 10 minutes.
  7. 7 Working in batches, pour soup into a blender, filling the pitcher no more than halfway full. Hold down the lid of the blender with a folded kitchen towel and carefully start the blender, using a few quick pulses to get soup moving before leaving it on to purée.
  8. 8 Pour blended soup into a clean pot. Stir in milk and cream. Return to a simmer over medium-low heat. Season with salt and pepper to serve.

Instructions

  1. 1 Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  2. 2 Fold two pieces of parchment paper in half; cut a half-circle starting at each crease. You should have two heart-shaped pieces of parchment when unfolded. Coat both sides of each parchment heart with olive oil.
  3. 3 Place potatoes in a saucepan and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain.
  4. 4 While potatoes simmering, bring a pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add asparagus, and cook uncovered until slightly tender, about 5 minutes. Drain in a colander, then immediately immerse in ice water for several minutes until cold to stop the cooking process. Once the asparagus is cold, drain well, and set aside.
  5. 5 Place 1 salmon fillet, half the asparagus, and half the potatoes in the middle of one side of one prepared parchment paper heart. Sprinkle with salt and pepper; drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil. Fold other half of paper heart over; seal parchment edge by making overlapping folds around the edge. At the end, fold the last crease in the opposite direction of the rest to ensure it seals. Repeat with the second piece of prepared parchment and remaining ingredients. Place pouches on a baking sheet.
  6. 6 Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to sit for 5 minutes before cutting parchment open. The salmon is done when it flakes easily with a fork.

Instructions

  1. 1 Gather all your ingredients.
  2. 2 Grease a large bowl with olive oil.
  3. 3 Combine all-purpose flour, spelt flour, yeast, and kosher salt in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook. Add water and knead until dough is smooth, elastic, wet, and sticky, about 5 minutes. Transfer dough to the prepared bowl. Cover and let rise on the counter for 30 minutes.
  4. 4 Uncover the dough. Wet one hand and grab one side of the dough in the bowl. Pull it up slightly and fold it in towards the center. Repeat this folding technique 6 or 7 more times, turning the bowl slightly in between each fold. Cover and let rest for 30 minutes.
  5. 5 Repeat Step 3 (above) two more times. Dough will have rested for a total of 2 hours.
  6. 6 Bake the Fougasse
  7. 7 Repeat folding technique once more. Cover and place in the refrigerator for 12 to 24 hours.
  8. 8 When ready to bake, line a sheet pan with a silicone liner; sprinkle some flour on the liner.
  9. 9 Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface and pat or press it into an oval shape, flouring lightly as necessary. Cut the oval in half lengthwise into two equal portions.
  10. 10 Shape fougasse: On one piece of dough, fold one end in over the center third, then fold the other end in over top. Dough should resemble a triangle. Transfer dough to the prepared pan. Repeat with the second piece of dough.
  11. 11 Cover both triangles with an oiled piece of plastic wrap and let sit until dough warms up, 30 minutes to 1 hour.
  12. 12 Line two baking sheets with parchment paper; generously sprinkle cornmeal on the parchment. Remove plastic from the dough.
  13. 13 Transfer one piece of dough to a lightly floured surface. Sprinkle some flour over top and use a rolling pin and your hands to stretch the triangle until it's ½- to ¾-inch thick. Sprinkle rosemary over top and press it into the dough. Transfer dough to one of the parchment-lined baking sheets.
  14. 14 Use a pizza wheel to cut through the dough in a vertical line up the center of the triangle; do not cut through the top and bottom edges. Pull dough apart to spread open the cut.
  15. 15 Make two more cuts at the top, one on each side from the center going out toward the edge, making sure you don't cut through the edges. Pull dough gently to spread it out. Make four more cuts, two in the middle, and two at the bottom, and pull dough apart. Make two more small cuts at the bottom. You will have one long cut in the center and 4 going down each side, so the fougasse will resemble a leaf. Cover with oiled plastic wrap and let proof for 30 to 60 minutes.
  16. 16 Repeat Steps 6 to 8 (above) to shape and proof the remaining dough.
  17. 17 Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Remove plastic wrap from one fougasse. Brush olive oil over the entire surface and sprinkle with sea salt.
  18. 18 Bake in the center of the preheated oven until beautifully browned, about 20 minutes.
  19. 19 Transfer to a rack to cool. Repeat Steps 11 and 12 (above) to bake remaining fougasse.
  20. 20 Serve and enjoy.
