Cuisine: American
Recipe type: Main dish
Ingredients
Omelet
  • 3 slices thick-cut bacon
  • 4 ounces button mushrooms
  • Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
  • 4 ounces fresh ricotta or cream cheese (about ½ cup)
  • ¼ ounce Parmesan, finely grated (about ¼ cup)
  • 6 large eggs
Salad
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon or other mustard
  • 2 heads of Boston or Bibb lettuce, leaves separated
  • Handful of chopped chives
Instructions
Omelet
  1. Cut bacon crosswise into ½”-wide pieces. Cook in a large nonstick skillet over medium, stirring and turning occasionally, until starting to brown and crisp but not all of the fat is rendered, 6–8 minutes. Transfer to a small plate or bowl with a slotted spoon.
  2. While the bacon is cooking, finely chop the mushrooms.
  3. Add mushrooms to skillet with bacon drippings, season with salt and pepper, and increase heat to medium-high. Cook, tossing often, until browned and any liquid from mushrooms has cooked off, about 5 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer to a small bowl; let skillet cool slightly. Add ricotta and Parmesan to mushrooms and stir well to combine; season with salt and pepper.
  4. Whisk eggs in a medium bowl until very smooth and a little frothy, about 1 minute; season with salt and pepper. Cook eggs in reserved skillet over medium, stirring constantly and making sure to scrape up eggs from bottom and around edge of pan, until large folded curds form. Shake pan to distribute uncooked eggs over surface and spoon mushroom mixture slightly off center. Top with bacon and cook until bottom of omelet takes on a light golden-brown color but surface is still slightly wet. Fold one side of omelet over filling (like a taco); slide omelet onto a cutting board or large plate.
Salad and Assembly
  1. Whisk oil, vinegar, and mustard in a large bowl to combine; season with salt and pepper. Add lettuce and half of chives and toss to coat.
  2. Top omelet with remaining chives cut in half and serve with salad.

  • kosher salt, to taste
  • freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • 2 medium carrots, minced, plus 1 pound (455 grams) oblique-cut
  • 1 medium white onion, minced
  • 2 stalks celery, minced
  • 20 cloves garlic, minced, plus 15 whole, divided
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 1 cup red wine (240 mL)
  • 4 cups chicken stock (960 mL)
  • 1 orange, juiced
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 5 sprigs fresh rosemary
  • 10 sprigs fresh thyme
  • 3 bay leaves
  • 1 lb brussels sprouts, halved (455 g)
  • 1 lb red pearl onion, peeled (455 g)
  • olive oil, for drizzling
  • 3 lb yukon gold potato, peeled, chopped, and boiled (1.3 kg)
  • white pepper, to taste
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, 1 stick, cubed and chilled (115 g)
  • 1 cup sour cream (230 g)
  • ½ cup heavy cream (120 mL)
CITRUS GREMOLATA
  • ¼ cup fresh parsley, chopped (10 g)
  • 1 lemon, zested
  • ½ tablespoon flaky sea salt
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh chives, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon horseradish
  • orange, zested
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Season the lamb shanks all over with salt and pepper.
  3. Heat the canola oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
  4. Sear 2 lamb shanks at a time until a dark brown crust forms on one side, 3-5 minutes. Sear the other sides of the meat until evenly browned. Remove the shanks from the pan and set aside. Remove all but 2 tablespoons of fat from the pan.
  5. Add the minced carrots, onion, celery, and minced garlic to the pot. Season with salt and pepper, and cook until the vegetables are deeply caramelized, 15-20 minutes.
  6. Add the tomato paste and cook until it browns and is aromatic, 5 minutes.
  7. Add the red wine and scrape the bottom of the pot to release the flavorful browned bits stuck to the bottom. Cook until the wine reduces by half and thickens slightly, 3 minutes.
  8. Add the chicken stock, orange juice, lemon juice, rosemary, thyme, and bay leaves. Stir and bring to a boil.
  9. Return the lamb shanks to the Dutch oven, cover, and place in the oven for 2 hours, turning the shanks halfway through, until the lamb is tender and the braising liquid has thickened.
  10. About halfway through the lamb cooking time, add the oblique-cut carrots, Brussels sprouts, red pearl onions, and whole garlic cloves to a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to combine. Roast in the oven for 1 hour, or until the vegetables are tender.
  11. Right after the potatoes finish boiling, drain and transfer to a large bowl. Season with plenty of salt and a bit of white pepper, and mash the potatoes until as smooth as possible.
  12. Fold in the butter, sour cream, and heavy cream until smooth and light.
  13. Make the citrus gremolata: In a small bowl, combine the parsley, lemon zest, flaky salt, garlic, chives, horseradish, and orange zest.
  14. To serve, scoop mashed potatoes onto a plate. Add roasted vegetables and a lamb shank. Top with the braising liquid and citrus gremolata.
  15. Enjoy!

Pasta with Mushrooms and Prosciutto

Pasta with Mushrooms and Prosciutto

Cuisine: American
Recipe type: Main dish
Ingredients
  • ¼ cup plus 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto (about 6 slices)
  • 1 pound mixed mushrooms (such as chanterelles, maitake, oyster, crimini, and/or shiitake), torn into bite-size pieces
  • 2 medium shallots, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon thyme leaves, plus more for serving
  • Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
  • 1 cup chicken stock or low-sodium chicken broth
  • 12 ounces pappardelle or fettuccine
  • ⅓ cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Instructions
  1. Heat ¼ cup oil in a large Dutch oven or other heavy pot over medium. Arrange prosciutto in a single layer in pot and cook, turning once or twice, until crisp, about 5 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
  2. Heat remaining 2 Tbsp. oil in same pot over high. Cook mushrooms, tossing occasionally, until browned and tender, 5–8 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low. Add shallots and 1 tsp. thyme, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring often, until shallots are translucent and softened, about 2 minutes. Add stock and reduce heat to low. Bring to a simmer and cook until only a thin layer of stock coats bottom of pot, 5−7 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until very al dente, about 3 minutes less than package directions.
  4. Using tongs, transfer pasta to pot with mushrooms and add 1 cup pasta cooking liquid. Crumble half of prosciutto into pot. Increase heat to medium, bring to a simmer, and cook, tossing constantly, until pasta is al dente and liquid is slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Add cream, return to a simmer, and cook, tossing, until pasta is coated, about 1 minute. Remove from heat, add butter, and toss to combine. Taste and season with salt if needed.
  5. Divide pasta among bowls. Top with more thyme and crumble remaining prosciutto over; season with pepper.

BA’s Best Morning Buns

BA's Best Morning Buns
Too many morning buns for your crowd? This recipe halves easily. This is part of BA's Best, a collection of our essential recipes.
Author:
Cuisine: American
Recipe type: Dessert
Ingredients
Dough
  • 1 ¼-ounce envelope active dry yeast (about 2¼ teaspoons)
  • 1 cup whole milk, warmed, plus ¼ chilled milk
  • 1 teaspoon plus ¼ cup honey
  • 4 large eggs, separated, plus 1 large egg yolk
  • 3½ cups (or more) bread flour, divided
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 2 teaspoons Diamond Crystal or 1 teaspoon Morton kosher salt
  • 2 teaspoons finely grated orange zest (optional)
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, cut into pieces, room temperature
Filling and Assembly
  • ¾ cup (packed) light brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • ¾ teaspoon ground cardamom
  • ½ cup honey, divided
  • 12 tablespoons (1½ sticks) unsalted butter, divided
  • Bread flour (for surface)
  • Nonstick vegetable oil spray
  • Fine sanding sugar or granulated sugar (for sprinkling)
Instructions
Dough
  1. Whisk yeast, 1 cup warm milk, and 1 tsp. honey in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with paddle attachment to combine, then let sit until foamy, about 5 minutes. Add egg whites, 2 cups bread flour, and remaining ¼ cup honey and beat with paddle on medium-high speed until mixture is very light and thick, about 3 minutes. Remove paddle, scrape mixture back into bottom of bowl, and sprinkle whole wheat flour and 1½ cups bread flour over top (do not stir). Place bowl in a warm spot and let sit uncovered until mixture is bubbling up around flour, 30–40 minutes.
  2. Add salt, orange zest (if using), vanilla extract, 5 egg yolks, and remaining ¼ cup cold milk to mixture and mix with dough hook on low speed until a shaggy dough forms. Increase speed to medium and work dough until it is smooth, soft, and elastic and climbing up the hook, 8–10 minutes (it will clear the sides of the bowl but still stick slightly to the bottom; if after 5 minutes the dough is still very sticky, add bread flour a tablespoonful at a time until dough is just tacky). Reduce mixer speed to medium-low and add butter pieces one at a time, letting dough absorb butter completely before adding the next piece. This part takes a while, so be patient. Dough should be very smooth and slightly tacky and have a soft, buoyant texture. Cover and chill at least 8 hours and up to 16 hours.
Filling and Assembly
  1. Cook brown sugar, cinnamon, cardamom, ¼ cup honey, and 8 Tbsp. butter in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly, just until butter is melted and mixture is smooth. Let cool.
  2. Punch down dough and turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide in half, place 1 piece back into bowl, cover, and chill while you work. Roll out remaining piece of dough on a sheet of lightly floured parchment paper to roughly a 16x12" rectangle. Spread half of brown sugar mixture over dough. Starting at side closest to you (make sure it’s a long side) and using the parchment paper to help you, roll dough into a tight log. If dough gets too warm or sticky to work with, slide (with parchment) onto a baking sheet and chill until firm, then proceed. Place log, seam side down, on a rimmed baking sheet. Chill until firm, 20–30 minutes.
  3. Repeat process with second half of dough and remaining brown sugar mixture. Spray cups of two 12-cup muffin pans with nonstick spray. Place a rack in center of oven and preheat to 350°.
  4. Trim chilled dough logs about ½" from ends and cut each on a slight diagonal into 12 equal pieces. Place, cut side up, in prepared muffin pan and cover loosely with plastic wrap. Let sit at room temperature until puffed and expanded to edges of muffin cups (dough will spring back when poked but hold a slight indentation), 25–35 minutes.
  5. Bake buns, rotating pans once left to right and front to back, until golden brown all over, 20–25 minutes.
  6. Meanwhile, heat remaining 4 Tbsp. butter and remaining ¼ cup honey in a small saucepan over low, stirring a bit, until smooth. Remove from heat.
  7. Pull buns out of oven and brush tops with butter mixture; sprinkle with sanding sugar. Transfer buns to a wire rack (if sugar cools in pan, it will harden and buns will stick); let cool.

  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

  • 1½ cups half-and-half
  • 12 slices provolone
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Tear the hoagie rolls into medium bite-sized pieces and spread on a baking sheet. Toast in the oven until dried out, 10 to 15 minutes.
  3. Brown the steak slices in the oil, breaking up into pieces with a wooden spoon, in a cast-iron or nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Remove from the skillet and drain all but 1 tablespoon of fat. Cook the onion, peppers, mushrooms, a pinch of salt and some pepper, stirring occasionally, until soft and translucent, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the steak back to the pan, stir well, turn off the heat and set aside.
  4. Microwave the cheese sauce in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until pourable. Pour into a large bowl with the eggs and half-and-half and whisk to combine well.
  5. Place a layer of dried bread in a deep 9-by-13-inch casserole dish. Add a layer of steak and peppers, then ladle the cheese custard over until just covered. Repeat until all the ingredients are used. Bake the strata until just set, 30 to 35 minutes.
  6. Preheat the broiler to low. Layer the provolone across the top of the pan, overlapping as necessary. Broil until the cheese topping is brown and bubbly, 5 to 10 minutes. Let the strata sit for 10 minutes to set before serving.
