Crust


  1. In the bowl of a food processor, combine the powdered sugar, almond flour, and ½ teaspoon of salt, and process on low speed, until it becomes fine. Sift the almond flour mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl.
  2. In a separate large bowl, beat the egg whites and the remaining ½ teaspoon of salt with an electric hand mixer until soft peaks form. Gradually add the granulated sugar until fully incorporated. Continue to beat until stiff peaks form (you should be able to turn the bowl upside down without anything falling out).
  3. Add the vanilla and beat until incorporated. Add the food coloring and beat until just combined.
  4. Add about ⅓ of the sifted almond flour mixture at a time to the beaten egg whites and use a spatula to gently fold until combined. After the last addition of almond flour, continue to fold slowly until the batter falls into ribbons and you can make a figure 8 while holding the spatula up.
  5. Transfer the macaron batter into a piping bag fitted with a round tip.
  6. Place 4 dots of the batter in each corner of a rimmed baking sheet, and place a piece of parchment paper over it, using the batter to help adhere the parchment to the baking sheet.
  7. Pipe the macarons onto the parchment paper in 3-cm circles, spacing at least 2-cm apart.
  8. Tap the baking sheet on a flat surface 5 times to release any air bubbles.
  9. Let the macarons sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to 1 hour, until dry to the touch.
  10. Preheat the oven to 300˚F 
  11. Bake the macarons for 17 minutes, until the feet are well-risen and the macarons don’t stick to the parchment paper.
  12. Transfer the macarons to a wire rack to cool completely before filling.


Filling
 


  1. Make the buttercream: In a large bowl, add the butter and beat with a mixer for 1 minute until light and fluffy. Sift in the powdered sugar and beat until fully incorporated. Add the vanilla and beat to combine. Add the cream, 1 tablespoon at a time, and beat to combine, until desired consistency is reached.
  2. Transfer the buttercream to a piping bag fitted with a round tip.
  3. Add a dollop of buttercream to one macaron shell. Top it with another macaron shell to create a sandwich. Repeat with remaining macaron shells and buttercream.
  4. Place in an airtight container for 24 hours to “bloom”.
  5. Enjoy!

Ingredients


  • 1 cup chickpeas* (uncooked / dry)
  • 3 cloves garlic (crushed + skins removed)
  • 1/3 cup tahini
  • 2 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 3/4 tsp sea salt
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil 
  • 1 Dash garlic powder 
  • 1/4 cup fresh herbs 


FOR SERVING optional


  • Pita chips
  • Cucumber
  • Red bell pepper

Instructions

  1. Add (uncooked) chickpeas to a large pot and cover with 2 inches of water. Bring to a boil over high heat and boil for 1 minute. Then cover, remove from heat, and let sit for 1 hour. This is a quick method. Alternatively, soak overnight or at least 6 hours in cool water.
  2. Drain and rinse chickpeas and add back to the pot. Cover with 2 inches water and add kombu (optional) for improved digestibility and baking soda (optional) for creamier texture (a reader tip!).
  3. Bring to a boil. Then reduce to a simmer and cook uncovered for 45 minutes to 1 hour or until tender (but not mushy). Remove kombu and discard. Drain. NOTE: You can optionally remove the skins from the beans at this point for creamier texture, but we don't have the patience for that.
  4. Add cooked chickpeas to a food processor or high-speed blender (a blender will get creamier texture!) along with garlic, tahini, lemon juice, sea salt, and olive oil (or water). Blend until creamy and smooth, scraping down sides as needed.
  5. At this point, you can add garlic powder and herbs (optional). Blend and taste. Adjust flavor as needed, adding more salt for saltiness, lemon juice for acidity, garlic for “zing,” tahini for nuttiness, or fresh herbs for color and herbal flavor.
  6. If the hummus is quite thick, add water (or additional oil) to thin until a creamy dip has formed. Enjoy as is with vegetables, pita, or crackers. Leftovers will keep stored in the refrigerator up to 1 week (not freezer friendly — best when fresh).

    step 3: add onion and garlic into the pan with the bacon and place on medium heat for 5-7 minutes. then add tomatoes and oregano into the pan, and season the whole thing with salt and pepper. lower the heat for like 10 minutes.
    step 4: get a large saucepan of lightly salted water to a boil. add the pasta to boiling water, and leave for average pasta boiling time. then drain the water and put into a bowl. then scoop all the stuff on the bacon pan and put it also in that bowl while grating some cheese on this abomination. imagine the cleanup after you're done cooking. yikes.

  • Pizza Ingredients
  • Extra virgin olive oil
  • Cornmeal (to help slide the pizza onto the pizza stone)
  • Tomato sauce (smooth, or puréed)
  • Firm mozzarella cheese, grated
  • Fresh soft mozzarella cheese, separated into small clumps
  • Fontina cheese, grated
  • Parmesan cheese, grated
  • Feta cheese, crumbled
  • Mushrooms, very thinly sliced if raw, otherwise first sautéed
  • Bell peppers, stems and seeds removed, very thinly sliced
  • Italian pepperoncini, thinly sliced
  • Italian sausage, cooked ahead and crumbled
  • Sliced black olives
  • Chopped fresh basil
  • Baby arugula, tossed in a little olive oil, added as pizza comes out of the oven
  • Pesto
  • Pepperoni, thinly sliced
  • Onions, thinly sliced raw or caramelized
  • Ham, thinly sliced                            Proof the yeast
    Place the warm water in the large bowl of a heavy duty stand mixer. Sprinkle the yeast over the warm water and let it sit for 5 minutes until the yeast is dissolved.

    After 5 minutes stir if the yeast hasn't dissolved completely. The yeast should begin to foam or bloom, indicating that the yeast is still active and alive.
    Make and knead the pizza dough
    Add the flour, salt, sugar, and olive oil, and using the mixing paddle attachment, mix on low speed for a minute. Then replace the mixing paddle with the dough hook attachment.

    Knead the pizza dough on low to medium speed using the dough hook about 7-10 minutes.

    If you don't have a mixer, you can mix the ingredients together and knead them by hand.

    The dough should be a little sticky, or tacky to the touch. If it's too wet, sprinkle in a little more flour.
    Let the dough rise
    Spread a thin layer of olive oil over the inside of a large bowl. Place the pizza dough in the bowl and turn it around so that it gets coated with the oil.

    At this point you can choose how long you want the dough to ferment and rise. A slow fermentation (24 hours in the fridge) will result in more complex flavors in the dough. A quick fermentation (1 1/2 hours in a warm place) will allow the dough to rise sufficiently to work with.

    Cover the dough with plastic wrap.

    For a quick rise, place the dough in a warm place (75°F to 85°F) for 1 1/2 hours.

    For a medium rise, place the dough in a regular room temperature place (your kitchen counter will do fine) for 8 hours. For a longer rise, chill the dough in the refrigerator for 24 hours (no more than 48 hours).

    The longer the rise (to a point) the better the flavor the crust will have.

    1. Preheat pizza stone (or pizza pan or baking sheet)
    2. Place a pizza stone on a rack in the lower third of your oven. Preheat the oven to 475°F (245°C) for at least 30 minutes, preferably an hour. If you don't have a pizza stone, you can use a pizza pan or a thick baking sheet; you need something that will not warp at high temperatures.

    3. Divide the dough into two balls
    4. Remove the plastic cover from the dough. Dust your hands with flour and push the dough down so it deflates a bit. Divide the dough in half.

    5. Form two round balls of dough. Place each in its own bowl, cover with plastic and let sit for 15 minutes (or up to 2 hours).Prep toppings
    6. Prepare your desired toppings. Note that you are not going to want to load up each pizza with a lot of toppings as the crust will end up not crisp that way.

    7. About a third a cup each of tomato sauce and cheese would be sufficient for one pizza. One to two mushrooms thinly sliced will cover a pizza.

    8. Flatten dough ball, and stretch out into a round
    9. Working one ball of dough at a time, take one ball of dough and flatten it with your hands on a lightly floured work surface.

    10. Starting at the center and working outwards, use your fingertips to press the dough to 1/2-inch thick. Turn and stretch the dough until it will not stretch further.

    11. Let the dough relax 5 minutes and then continue to stretch it until it reaches the desired diameter - 10 to 12 inches.

    12. Treat the dough gently!

    13. You can also hold up the edges of the dough with your fingers, letting the dough hang and stretch, while working around the edges of the dough.

    14. If a hole appears in your dough, place the dough on a floured surface and push the dough back together to seal the hole.

    15. Use your palm to flatten the edge of the dough where it is thicker. Pinch the edges if you want to form a lip.
      Brush dough top with olive oil
    16. Use your fingertips to press down and make dents along the surface of the dough to prevent bubbling. Brush the top of the dough with olive oil (to prevent it from getting soggy from the toppings). Let rest another 10-15 minutes.

    17. Repeat with the second ball of dough.

    18. Sprinkle pizza peel with corn meal, put flattened dough on top
    19. Lightly sprinkle your pizza peel (or flat baking sheet) with cornmeal. (The corn meal will act as little ball bearings to help move the pizza from the pizza peel into the oven.)

    20. Transfer one prepared flattened dough to the pizza peel.

    21. If the dough has lost its shape in the transfer, lightly shape it to the desired dimensions.
      Spread with tomato sauce and sprinkle with toppings
      Spoon on the tomato sauce, sprinkle with cheese, and place your desired toppings on the pizza. Be careful not to overload the pizza with too many toppings, or your pizza will be soggy.


      Sprinkle cornmeal on pizza stone, slide pizza onto pizza stone in oven
      Sprinkle some cornmeal on the baking stone in the oven (watch your hands, the oven is hot!). Gently shake the peel to see if the dough will easily slide, if not, gently lift up the edges of the pizza and add a bit more cornmeal.

      Slide the pizza off of the peel and onto the baking stone in the oven.
      Bake pizza
      Bake pizza in the 475°F (245°C) oven, one at a time, until the crust is browned and the cheese is golden, about 10-15 minutes. If you want, toward the end of the cooking time you can sprinkle on a little more cheese.
