WHO LOVES YA BABY-BACK?

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 250 degrees.
• In a bowl, combine all dry ingredients and mix well. Place each slab of baby back ribs on a piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil, shiny side down. Sprinkle each side generously with the dry rub. Pat the dry rub into the meat. Refrigerate the ribs for a minimum of 1 hour. In a microwavable container, combine all ingredients for the braising liquid. Microwave on high for 1 minute.
• Place the ribs on a baking sheet. Open one end of the foil on each slab and pour half of the braising liquid into each foil packet. Tilt the baking sheet in order to equally distribute the braising liquid. Braise the ribs in the oven for 2 1/2 hours.
• Transfer the braising liquid into a medium saucepot. Bring the liquid to a simmer and reduce by half or until of a thick syrup consistency. Brush the glaze onto the ribs. Place under the broiler just until the glaze caramelizes lightly. Slice each slab into 2 rib bone portions. Place the remaining hot glaze into a bowl and toss the rib portions in the glaze.

I.C. SALMON WITH DILL-YOGURT SAUCE

Steps:

• Place the salmon on a wire rack set in a rimmed baking sheet. Rub the fillets with 2 teaspoons of the salt, then refrigerate for 45 minutes. Meanwhile, set your immersion circulator bath for 124 degrees F (51 degrees C).
• Pat the salmon dry with paper towels, then divide between two gallon-size vacuum-seal or high-quality freezer zip-top bags. Add 1 1/2 teaspoons of the olive oil to each bag, then gently rub the fish to coat. Use a peeler to harvest eight strips of lemon peel and place two strips, pith-side up, on top of each fillet. Halve and juice the lemon; set the juice aside to use in the sauce. If using vacuum-seal bags, use the "gentle" or "moist" setting to seal the bags.
• Transfer the fillet bags to the water bath. If using zip-top bags, let the salmon sink, forcing the air out of the bag via displacement. Right before the mouth of the bag goes into the water, seal the bag. Leave the salmon to cook for 45 minutes. (If one of the bags floats, carefully reopen and try the sink-and-seal method again.)
• While the salmon cooks, make the sauce: In a medium bowl, combine the yogurt, dill, mustard, horseradish, and pepper. Stir in the remaining teaspoon of salt and 1 tablespoon of the lemon juice. Stir well, then season to taste with additional salt, pepper, and lemon juice, if desired. Set aside until ready to serve.
• When the salmon is finished, remove it from the water bath. Open the bags and very carefully remove the fish to a paper towel-lined sheet pan. Pat the fish as dry as possible with additional paper towels. Brush the skin side lightly with some of the neutral oil.
• Heat a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over high heat for 3 minutes. Add 2 teaspoons of the neutral oil and swirl the pan to coat. When the oil starts to smoke, add two of the salmon fillets, skin-side down. Brush the flesh side lightly with additional oil. Cook until the skin is browned and crisp, about 1 minute. Carefully flip with a narrow metal spatula or "fish turner" and cook on the second side just until just brown, about 30 seconds. Carefully transfer to a serving platter and repeat with the remaining oil and fillets. Serve with the dill-yogurt sauce.

EASY HOMEMADE ALMOND ROCA

Steps:

• Over Medium heat, melt butter in a large pot.
• Add corn syrup, water and sugar to pot and cook until temp reaches 290 degrees OR until the mixture becomes the color of a brown paper bag (about 15-20 minutes) stirring constantly with a wooden spoon (mixture will rise and bubble quite a bit).
• Remove from heat and Stir in 1/2 of the Almonds.
• Turn mixture onto a greased cookie sheet WITH EDGES!
• While the mixture is cooling, melt the chocolate over low flame until all the chips are gone, and chocolate is smooth.
• Score the Almond butter mixture into the shape you desire (I just scored into rectangle shapes).
• Pour the hot chocolate over the almond mixture and spread evenly.
• Sprinkle with remaining almonds and allow candy to cool completely and chocolate to harden before breaking apart and serving.
• Note: I let mine refrigerate over night after breaking the into squares, and they had a better texture this way, we thought.
