Rigatoni Pie alla Vodka

Rigatoni Pie alla Vodka
Rigatoni stands at attention in this savory baked pie. The tender upright tubes of pasta are filled and topped with a creamy tomato-vodka sauce, turning a classic Italian dish into a vertical centerpiece.
Author:
Cuisine: American
Recipe type: Breakfast
Ingredients
  • ¼ cup plus 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 large shallot, finely chopped
  • ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • One 28-ounce can whole peeled tomatoes, with their juices
  • One 15-ounce can whole peeled tomatoes, with their juices
  • 1 cup vodka
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup loosely packed fresh basil leaves, plus more for serving
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 pound rigatoni
  • 1 pound part-skim mozzarella, grated
  • ⅔ cup grated Parmesan
Instructions
  1. Special equipment: a 9-inch springform pan
  2. Heat ¼ cup of the oil with the shallot in a large saucepan over medium-low heat. Once it begins to sizzle, cook the shallot, stirring occasionally, until is soft and just beginning to brown, about 6 minutes. Stir in the red pepper flakes, then add the tomatoes with their juices, vodka and ½ cup water. Increase the heat to high and bring the sauce to a boil, crushing the tomatoes with the back of a wooden spoon. Lower the heat to maintain a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until reduced and thickened, about 15 minutes. Stir in the cream, bring back to a simmer and cook for 1 minute. Remove the pan from the heat, stir in the basil and season with salt and pepper. Let the sauce cool for 10 minutes, then puree in a blender until smooth.
  3. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a 9-inch springform pan with 1 tablespoon oil.
  4. Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta until slightly less than al dente, about 8 minutes. Drain, spread in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet and toss with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil.
  5. Stand the rigatoni on their ends in the prepared springform pan until it is completely filled (you might have leftover pasta). Put the pan on a foil-lined baking sheet to catch any drips. Pour the sauce over the pasta, spreading it with the back of a spoon (you might have leftover sauce). Sprinkle with the mozzarella and Parmesan.
  6. Cover the pan with foil, doming it slightly to avoid touching the cheese. Bake for 30 minutes. Uncover the pan and continue cooking until the top is golden brown and bubbly, about 30 minutes more. Let the pasta cool for 10 minutes, then carefully remove the sides of the pan, sprinkle with basil, cut into wedges and serve.

Cuisine: American
Recipe type: Main dish
Ingredients
  • 5 lb boneless ribeye roast, trimmed
  • 1 salt, to taste
  • 1 black pepper, to taste
  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 7 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon paprika
  • ¼ cup chives, chopped
  • ¼ cup rosemary, chopped
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 3 lb bacon
  • ¼ cup flour
  • 2 cups beef broth
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 250°F (120°C).
  2. Let the ribeye roast come to room temperature. Season with salt and freshly cracked pepper on all sides.
  3. Place the roast in the oven for 3 hours, or until the temperature reaches at least 125°F (52°C) for an eventual medium-rare cooked prime rib. Let ribeye cool to room temperature.
  4. Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C).
  5. Mix together the butter, garlic, paprika, chives, rosemary, brown sugar, salt, and pepper in a bowl until evenly combined.
  6. Rub the butter mixture all over the ribeye roast and set aside.
  7. On a large piece of parchment paper or plastic wrap, weave together slices of bacon until you have a bacon lattice twice as long and twice as wide as the roast.
  8. Place the bacon lattice over the roast and tuck any excess bacon around the prime rib.
  9. Place the bacon-wrapped roast on a greased, wire rack lined sheet tray. then place on a roasting tray with a rack.
  10. Bake the roast for an additional 30 minutes, or until the bacon lattice is crispy. The center of the meat should not heat up too much so it is very important you cook it to the desired doneness when the roast was in the oven the first time.
  11. Remove the roast from the pan and pour the pan drippings into a saucepan over medium heat.
  12. Add the flour, whisking until there are no lumps and the mixture starts to simmer.
  13. Add the beef broth and stir until the gravy comes to a boil.
  14. Remove from heat and strain the sauce into a gravy dish.
  15. Carve the prime rib into ¾-inch slices, then serve with any sides you like and the homemade gravy!
  16. Enjoy!

Laminated Pasta Dough

Laminated Pasta Dough
Give your pasta an additional kick of color and flavor by "laminating" herbs like parsley and sage into the pasta.
Author:
Cuisine: American
Recipe type: Breakfast
Ingredients
Butternut squash ravioli with brown butter sauce
  • 1 cup butternut squash purée
  • 2 tablespoons mascarpone
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter
  • Parmesan cheese, shaved
Laminated Pasta Dough
  • 3 large eggs, beaten
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 large bunch sage, leaves picked
  • 1 large bunch flat leaf parsley, leaves picked
  • Semolina flour, for dusting
Instructions
Butternut squash ravioli with brown butter sauce
  1. In a large bowl, add the butternut squash purée, mascarpone, salt, pepper, nutmeg and Parmesan and mix until combined. Set aside until ready to use.
  2. Fill a deep pot with heavily salted water and bring to a boil.
  3. Place 1 tablespoon of filling onto half of a rolled out pasta sheet. Repeat with 2 more tablespoonfuls. Fold the other half of the pasta sheet over to cover the filling. Lightly press down around each mound of the filling to seal the ravioli. Using a pastry cutter or knife, cut around each mound of filling to make 1½-inch squares. Crimp the edges to seal.
  4. In a small saucepan over medium heat, warm the butter until melted, stirring constantly. Continue cooking the butter, until all of the milk solids turn golden and the butter has a nutty fragrance.
  5. Gently drop the ravioli into the boiling water and cook for 3 to 5 minutes. Using a spider or slotted spoon, transfer the ravioli to a serving dish.
  6. Drizzle the brown butter over the ravioli, garnish with shaved Parmesan and serve immediately. Enjoy!
Laminated Pasta Dough
  1. In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine eggs, flour, oil and salt with your hands until a shaggy dough forms. Knead with dough hook until dough is smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. Cover dough with plastic wrap and let rest in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Divide the dough into 4 equal portions. Attach the pasta roller attachment to the stand mixer and place it on setting 1.
  3. Lightly dust one portion of the dough with flour, then form it into a rectangle. Pass the pasta through the rollers on setting 1 and repeat the rolling and flouring process so that the pasta passes through setting 1 a total of 4 times.
  4. Change the rollers to setting 2, lightly flour the pasta, then pass it through the rollers. Change the rollers to setting 3, lightly flour the pasta and then pass it through the rollers. Continue with the flouring and rolling until the pasta is passed through setting 6. Repeat the rolling and flouring process with the remaining pieces of dough, placing the rolled out sheets of pasta on the floured baking sheet.
  5. Once you've rolled out all of the dough, lay one sheet of pasta flat on your work surface. Place the sage and parsley leaves on the dough, spacing them in an artistic fashion. Very lightly dab the edges of the sheet of pasta with water and then carefully lay a second sheet of pasta dough on top of the herbs, enclosing them between the two sheets of dough. Using your hands, lightly press the two sheets together so that they stick.
  6. Turn the stand mixer speed to level 2. Pass the pasta sheet through the rollers on setting 3 to seal the two sheets together. Repeat the layering and rolling process with the remaining sheets of dough.
