Recipe type: Breakfast
Ingredients
  • 1 big head of cauliflower
  • 4 tbsp. butter, melted (divided)
  • 4 garlic cloves (skin-on)
  • 1 small bunch of sage
  • 4 sprigs fresh thyme
  • 4 sprigs fresh rosemary
  • kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
GRAVY
  • 3 tbsp. unsalted butter
  • ½ Onion, finely chopped
  • 4 oz. cremini mushrooms, finely chopped
  • 1 tsp. chopped fresh sage
  • 1 tsp. chopped fresh rosemary
  • 1 tsp. chopped fresh thyme
  • 3 tbsp. all-purpose flour

  1. Preheat oven to 450°. Rub the cauliflower all over with 2 tbsp melted butter. Season with salt and pepper.

Bake for for 1 – ½ hours until charred in parts and tender throughout, brushing with the remaining melted butter about halfway through. Pierce the cauliflower with a paring knife to check the tenderness.
  3. Make gravy: Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté until beginning to soften, about 3-5 minutes. Stir in the mushrooms and season mixture with salt and pepper. Add herbs and cook until the mushrooms are tender and browned. Add 1-2 cloves of the roasted garlic (skins removed), breaking up the cloves with a whisk or wooden spoon. Stir in flour and cook for 1 minute. Whisk in 2 cups of vegetable stock and bring mixture to a boil. Reduce heat slightly and simmer for 5 minutes, until the mixture has thickened to your desired consistency. Add more vegetable stock if desired. Serve the cauliflower with the gravy.

Show-stopping Beef Wellington
Author:
Cuisine: American
Recipe type: Main dish
Ingredients
  • 3 lb center-cut beef tenderloin
  • kosher salt, to taste
  • black pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • ¼ cup english mustard
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 2 shallots, minced
  • 2 lb cremini mushroom, minced
  • 5 cloves garlic, minced
  • ½ lb prosciutto, thinly sliced, or ham
  • 1 sheet puff pastry
  • 2 eggs, beaten
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Let the beef tenderloin come to room temperature. Season with kosher salt and pepper on all sides.
  3. Add canola oil to a large pan on high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the tenderloin. Without moving the tenderloin, cook until a dark brown crust forms, about 3 minutes. Repeat searing on all sides, including the tenderloin ends.
  4. Remove the tenderloin from the pan and transfer to a cutting board or wire rack and remove ties.
  5. Brush the mustard on all sides of the meat while it’s still warm. Let the meat rest for while making the duxelle (mushrooms cooked and reduced until dry).
  6. To the same pan, add the butter, mushrooms, minced shallot, and minced garlic over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until all the liquid evaporates and the mushroom mixture becomes a thick, dry-like paste.
  7. Remove the mushrooms from the pan and let cool completely.
  8. Place a large layer of overlapping sheets of plastic wrap on your work surface that is twice the length and width of the tenderloin.
  9. Lay overlapping strips of prosciutto on the plastic into an even square layer.
  10. Spread a layer of the mushrooms evenly over the prosciutto.
  11. Tightly and evenly wrap the tenderloin with the prosciutto, using the plastic wrap to wrap it even tighter and seal ends. Tie the ends of the plastic wrap together to hold the Wellington’s shape. Place in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
  12. Place a new layer of plastic wrap on the work surface and lay a sheet of puff pastry over it. Unwrap the prosciutto-wrapped beef tenderloin onto the puff pastry, wrapping until the ends meet. Cut off any extra puff pastry, making sure there is no overlap.
  13. Wrap the puff pastry in plastic wrap, tying the ends together to form a log shape. Place in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
  14. Place the beef Wellington on a greased, parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Brush the surface with the beaten eggs. With a fork, score a decorative design onto the surface of the puff pastry.
  15. Decorate with additional pastry (optional). Sprinkle with kosher salt.
  16. Bake for 40 minutes or until the puff pastry is a dark golden brown and the internal temperature of the beef is 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare.
  17. Enjoy!

Cream Cheese-Stuffed Pumpkin Dinner Rolls

Cream Cheese-Stuffed Pumpkin Dinner Rolls
Win Thanksgiving with these cream cheese stuffed pumpkin rolls.
Author:
Cuisine: American
Recipe type: Dessert
Ingredients
  • 1 envelope active dry yeast
  • ½ cup whole milk, scalded and allowed to cool to 110 degrees
  • 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
  • ⅓ cup brown sugar
  • 4 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 1½ teaspoons kosher salt
  • 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, cut into ½-ounce blocks and chilled
  • 20 pecan halves, sliced into thirds vertically
  • ⅓ cup butter, melted
Instructions
  1. In a small bowl, place yeast, 110-degree milk and granulated sugar. Allow the yeast to bloom for about 10 minutes until frothy.
  2. In the bowl of a stand mixer, add yeast, brown sugar, butter, salt, spices, eggs, pumpkin puree and flour. Mix with the paddle attachment until well combined. Switch to the dough hook and knead dough for about 8 to 10 minutes, until it is smooth and soft.
  3. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with linen and allow it to rest for about an hour, or until it has doubled in size.
  4. Divide the dough into 16 pieces. Fill each dough ball with a cube of cream cheese. Wrap each dough ball in kitchen twine, wrapping the twine around the dough ball to create a pumpkin shape. (Take care not to wrap the dough too tightly because it will become larger when it proofs and bakes.) Cover the pumpkin-shaped dough balls loosely and set them aside to proof for between 1 and 1½ hours, or until the dough is puffy and has doubled in size. Create an indentation in the top of each pumpkin where the pecan stem will sit after the rolls have baked.
  5. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake the rolls for 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from oven when baked through and golden brown; brush with melted butter. Allow rolls to cool for a few minutes, then remove the twine and place a pecan stem on top of each. Serve warm.
