Instructions

  1. 1 Remove and discard the root ends from each head of frisee lettuce. Chop leaves into 1-inch pieces and transfer to a large salad spinner. Fill with cold water, swish well to remove any dirt and sand, then drain and spin until completely dry. Keep in the refrigerator until ready to use.
  2. 2 Whisk shallots, Dijon, salt, pepper, and sherry vinegar together in a large bowl until well combined. Add oil slowly, a little at a time, and continue whisking until dressing is thick and emulsified; set aside.
  3. 3 Place bacon in a cold pan over medium heat; cook until crisp, 8 to 10 minutes.
  4. 4 While the bacon is cooking, fill a pot with water. Add a pinch of salt and a dash of white vinegar and bring to a simmer.
  5. 5 Place 1/4 of the chilled frisee in a mixing bowl. Add 1/4 of the cooked bacon (don't add too much bacon grease, but it's okay to have a little) along with a generous helping of the vinaigrette. Toss with tongs until frisee is thoroughly coated. Transfer to a salad plate or shallow bowl. Repeat to prep the remaining three salads.
  6. 6 Drop eggs, one at a time, into the simmering water and let cook, without touching, for 20 to 30 seconds. Nudge them gently with a spoon to make sure they're not stuck on the bottom and continue to cook until whites are set and yolks are runny, 2 to 3 minutes more. Lift each poached egg carefully with a slotted spoon, drain well, and place carefully on a salad, flipping so the yolk is facing down.
  7. 7 Sprinkle with cayenne, sea salt, and chives and serve.

Instructions

  1. 1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper.
  2. 2 Put butter, white sugar, brown sugar, vanilla, baking soda, and salt in a bowl. Cream together with a mixer until butter clings to sides of bowl and is uniform in color, about 2 minutes. Mix in eggs 1 at a time, waiting until first is incorporated before adding second. Add 2 cups flour; mix on low speed until incorporated. (Dough will be very soft.)
  3. 3 Divide dough roughly in half and transfer one half to a separate bowl. Mix remaining 1/2 cup flour into one half, then stir in semisweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed. Mix cocoa powder into other half, then stir in white chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  4. 4 Roll a tablespoon of each dough into a ball and tap lightly on counter to create a flat bottom (see assembly shots at left). Press flat sides together to form a larger ball, then flatten into a half-dark, half-light disk. Cut disk in half with a knife, cutting perpendicular to dough seam. Flip one half over and then firmly press halves back together. You should have a disk with 4 alternating quarters. Repeat with remaining dough. Transfer to baking sheet, spacing about 2 inches apart. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt.
  5. 5 Bake until cookie edges start to turn golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool on sheet 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Instructions

  1. 1 To make the dough, combine warm water, 1/2 cup of flour, and yeast to a mixing bowl. Use a whisk to mix everything into a smooth batter. Cover bowl with a towel and let sit for 30 minutes.
  2. 2 Add olive oil, salt, and remaining flour to the bowl, and stir with a spoon or fork until the mixture comes together to form a shaggy ball of dough.
  3. 3 Transfer everything to a work surface and knead until the dough just starts to become elastic, about 2 minutes.
  4. 4 Place dough in a lightly oiled zip-top bag. Press out most of the air, seal, and place in the refrigerator for 8 hours, or overnight.
  5. 5 The next day, take the bag of dough out of the fridge, and leave out at room temperature until it roughly doubles in size, about 45 minutes.
  6. 6 Meanwhile, preheat a charcoal grill until coals are white and ashy. Quarter your peeled and cored pineapple and trim out the tough, fibrous core in the center.
  7. 7 Grill pineapple round-side down over hot coals until heated through, and fairly well charred, about 3 minutes; flip and continue to grill on the cored side until charred, 2 to 3 minutes. Reserve until needed.
  8. 8 Once dough has doubled, remove from bag and divide into 4 portions. Form each portion into a ball and use a rolling pin to roll dough into an oval, or circle about an 1/8-inch thick.
  9. 9 Place dough over hot coals, and grill until dough is cooked through, and about half the surface area is slightly charred, about 2 minutes per side.
  10. 10 Remove from grill and top each warm flatbread with a drizzle of olive oil. Top with prosciutto, thin slices of grilled pineapple, tarragon leaves, and freshly ground black pepper. Finish with another small drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of flaky sea salt.
