MUSHROOMS WITH ROASTED CORN AND MARJORAM
The combination of sweet, lightly smoked corn and rich, earthy mushrooms is one of the great flavor marriages of Mexican food. In this filling, inspired by one of my favorite salsa recipes in The Great Salsa Book, the fresh corn kernels are dry-roasted to capture the sweet corn flavor and infuse them with an appetizing, smoky perfume. Dry roasting is one of the great culinary techniques that give Mexican cuisine its distinctiveness and meaning, and one easily mastered at home. Very simply and effectively, it intensifies and concentrates flavors and imparts the smoky, primordial quality that is characteristic of so many Mexican dishes. Beyond corn, the technique is also used for garlic, tomatoes, and onions, for fresh and dried chiles, and for seeds and nuts.

Steps:
- Cut the prepared poblano chiles into 1/4-inch-thick strips (rajas); set aside.
- Preheat a heavy skillet large enough to hold the mushrooms in a single layer for about 2 minutes over medium-high heat. Melt the butter in the pan, then add the mushrooms, garlic, salt, and pepper, and sauté until the mushrooms are golden brown and caramelized, 6 to 8 minutes.
- Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the corn, olive oil, chipotle puree, lime juice, cilantro, and marjoram. Serve immediately or keep warm in the pan until ready to serve.
- To serve, lay the tortillas side by side, open face and overlapping on a platter. Divide the filling equally between the tortillas and top with salsa and basil. Grab, fold, and eat right away. Or build your own taco: lay a tortilla, open face, in one hand. Spoon on some filling, top with salsa and basil, fold, and eat right away.

Steps:
- For gnocchi:
- Place ricotta in strainer set over medium bowl. Chill until ricotta has texture of wet clay, about 1 hour.
- Mix ricotta, 1/2 cup flour, egg, and next 5 ingredients in medium bowl, adding more flour by tablespoonfuls until dough is slightly sticky (do not add more than 4 tablespoonfuls). Cover and chill 30 minutes.
- Sprinkle rimmed baking sheet generously with flour. Transfer dough to lightly floured surface. Cut into 4 equal pieces. Using hands, roll 1 piece on floured surface into 3/4-inch-wide log. Cut log crosswise into 1-inch pieces. Place gnocchi on prepared baking sheet, spacing apart. Repeat with remaining dough. Cover gnocchi with plastic wrap and chill at least 1 hour and up to 1 day.
- For sauce:
- Heat olive oil in large skillet over high heat. Add mushrooms; sauté until beginning to brown, about 4 minutes. Add chopped white and pale green parts of green onions. Sauté 1 minute. Add wine; stir until almost all liquid is absorbed, about 30 seconds. Add 1/2 cup chicken broth. Stir until sauce is slightly thickened, about 1 minute. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature.
- Working in 2 batches, add gnocchi to large pot of boiling salted water, stirring to prevent sticking. Boil until gnocchi rise to surface of water, then continue boiling until cooked through, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes longer. Using slotted spoon, transfer gnocchi to skillet with mushrooms. Add sliced dark green parts of green onions.
- Rewarm mushrooms with gnocchi and green onions over medium heat, adding more broth by 1/4 cupfuls if dry. Remove from heat. Add 1/4 cup cheese, butter, and marjoram; stir until cheese and butter melt. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to plates and sprinkle with additional cheese.
Tips:
- Choose the freshest ingredients possible. This will ensure that your dish is packed with flavor.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of mushrooms. There are many different varieties available, each with its own unique flavor and texture.
- Roast the corn on the cob before adding it to the dish. This will give it a slightly smoky flavor that pairs well with the mushrooms.
- Use fresh herbs whenever possible. They will add a pop of flavor to your dish.
- Don't overcook the mushrooms. They should be tender but still have a slight bite to them.
- Serve the dish immediately. This will ensure that the mushrooms and corn are at their best.
