5. Apple & Leek Stuffed Pork Tenderloin • Makes4 servings • Time 1 hour 10 minutes

6. Ingredients • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus 1 teaspoon, divided • 1 cup chopped leek, white and light green parts only, rinsed • 1 sweet apple, such as Brae burn, Honey crisp or Macoun, peeled and chopped • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme, plus 1 sprig, divided • 3/4 teaspoon salt, divided • 3/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper, divided • 1-1 1/4 pounds pork tenderloin, trimmed • 2 cloves garlic, peeled • 1/2 cup applejack or apple brandy • 2 cups apple cider • 2 teaspoons cornstarch • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard

7. Directions Preheat oven to 450°F. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add leek and cook, stirring, until beginning to soften, about 3 minutes. Add apple, chopped thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the apple is beginning to soften, about 2 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a bowl to cool. Rinse out the pan. To butterfly the tenderloin, lay it on a large cutting board. Holding the knife blade flat and parallel to the board, make a lengthwise cut through the center of the meat, stopping short of the opposite edge so that the tenderloin remains in one piece. Open as you would a book. Cover with plastic wrap. With a meat mallet, rolling pin or heavy pan, pound the pork to an even 1/4-inch thickness. Spread the apple mixture in the center of the pork, leaving a 1-inch border all around. Starting at a long side, roll up the pork to enclose the filling. To keep the stuffing from falling out during roasting, fold in about 1 inch of the two short ends. Tie kitchen string firmly lengthwise around the roast to secure the two ends. Then tie it crosswise with string at 2-inch intervals. Lightly brush the roast with 1 teaspoon oil and sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in the skillet over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and brown the roast on all sides, about 4 minutes total. Transfer the roast to a rimmed baking sheet (set the pan aside). Place in the oven and roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 145°F, about 15 minutes. Let rest on a clean cutting board for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare the sauce. Crush garlic with the flat side of a knife. Return the pan to medium-high heat. Add applejack (or apple brandy), thyme sprig and the garlic; bring to a boil and cook for 1 minute. Whisk cider and cornstarch and add to the pan. Return to a boil and cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened and reduced by just over half (to about 3/4 cup), 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat; discard the garlic and thyme. Whisk in mustard and any juice from the baking sheet. Slice the pork and serve with the sauce.

12. Roast Turkey with Potato Pan Gravy • Makes 8 servings (3 ounces meat, 1/4 cup gravy), plus leftovers • Active Time 45 minutes • Total Time 2 1/2 hours plus 12-18 hours brining time

13. Ingredients • Brine & Turkey • 4 quarts vegetable broth • 1 cup kosher salt • 2/3 cup agave nectar (see Tips) • 2 medium onions, peeled and quartered • 1 small handful fresh thyme sprigs (about 1/2 ounce) • 2 large sprigs fresh sage • 1 tablespoon whole black peppercorns • 1 gallon ice-cold water • 1 14-pound natural or organic turkey (see Tips), neck, gizzards and excess fat removed • 1 tablespoon grape seed oil or canola oil • 1 teaspoon sea salt • Gravy • 2 medium Yukon Gold potatoes (about 12 ounces), peeled and cut into chunks • 3 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth or turkey stock • Freshly ground pepper to taste

14. Directions To brine turkey: Combine vegetable broth, kosher salt, agave nectar, onions, thyme, sage and peppercorns in a large pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Let cool to room temperature. Transfer to a 16-quart pot, clean 5-gallon bucket or a brining bag. Add ice water. Submerge the turkey in the brine, breast-side down. Weight the turkey with a plate, if necessary, so it stays submerged. Refrigerate for 12 to 18 hours. To roast turkey: Remove all the oven racks except one, set in the lowest position; preheat oven to 475°F. Remove the turkey from the brine and rinse well with cold water. Thoroughly dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels. (Discard the brine.) Rub the turkey all over with oil and sprinkle with sea salt. Place on a roasting rack, breast-side up, in a roasting pan. Tuck the wing tips under the turkey and tie the legs together with kitchen string. Roast the turkey for 30 minutes, rotating the pan back to front halfway through. Remove from the oven and cover the whole turkey with a double layer of foil. Add 2 cups hot water to the roasting pan. Continue roasting, rotating the pan again halfway through, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a thigh without touching bone registers 165°F, 1 to 1 1/2 hours more. Peek under the foil 15 to 30 minutes before you think the turkey will be done; if it’s not browning nicely, remove the foil for the remainder of the roasting time. Carefully transfer the turkey to a large, clean cutting board; let it rest, loosely covered with foil, for at least 20 minutes before removing the string and carving. To prepare gravy: While the turkey is roasting, place potatoes in a large saucepan and add water to cover. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium, cover, and cook until the potatoes are very tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain.

15. 7. While the turkey is resting, skim any visible fat from the pan drippings. Place the roasting pan over medium heat. Add broth (or stock) and bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits. Transfer to a blender, add the potatoes and blend on high speed for 2 minutes. If the gravy is too thick, add a little broth (or stock or water) to thin to the desired consistency. Return the gravy to the pan and simmer over low heat until hot, about 2 minutes. Season with pepper. 8. Carve the turkey and serve with the gravy.

It has a lower glycemic index and is lower in calories than table sugar, but is even sweeter. Use it in moderation when substituting for table sugar. Look for it near other sweeteners in large supermarkets and natural foods stores. Turkey, natural or organic:For the best taste and texture, like using a “natural” or “organic” turkey—it does not have any added “sodium solution” found in most conventional turkeys and have better taste and texture. Turkeys labeled “heritage” are also typically “natural.”

21. Peppercorn-Crusted Beef Tenderloin • Makes 12 Servings • Active Time 25 Minutes • Total Time 1 ¼ Hours

22. Ingredients • 2 tablespoons whole green peppercorns • 1 tablespoon whole white peppercorns • 1 tablespoon whole black peppercorns • 3 pounds trimmed beef tenderloin, preferably center-cut (see Note) • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil • 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt Directions Preheat a gas grill (with all burners lit) to 400°F or build a fire in a charcoal grill and let it burn down to medium heat (about 400°F). Coarsely crack peppercorns with a small heavy skillet (or saucepan), in a mortar and pestle or in a spice grinder. Tie kitchen string around tenderloin in several places so the meat will hold its shape as it cooks. Rub with oil, sprinkle with salt and coat with the cracked peppercorns. If using a gas grill, turn off one burner (leaving 1 to 2 burners lit, depending on your grill). If using a charcoal grill, move the coals to one side. Place the tenderloin on the unheated side of the grill rack. Close the lid and roast undisturbed for 20 minutes. Rotate the tenderloin 180 degrees, cover and continue roasting until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat registers 140°F (for medium-rare), 15 to 35 minutes more. Transfer to a clean cutting board and let stand for 10 minutes before slicing.

Note:You'll need 3 pounds of trimmed tenderloin for the beef tenderloin recipe. Ask your butcher to remove the extra fat, silver skin and the chain (a lumpy, fat-covered piece of meat that runs along the tenderloin). If you buy untrimmed tenderloin, start with about 3 1/2 pounds, then use a sharp knife to trim the silver skin, fat and chain.

24. Salmon with Red Wine-Morel Sauce • Makes 4 servings • Active Time 45 minutes • Total Time 45 minutes

25. Ingredients • 1 1/2-ounce package dried morel or porcini mushrooms • 1 cup boiling water • 2 teaspoons cornstarch • 2 teaspoons plus 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, divided • 1/3 cup finely chopped shallots • 3/4 cup dry red wine • 1 cup seafood stock or bottled clam juice (see Note) • 1 teaspoon butter • 1-2 teaspoons lemon juice • 1/2 teaspoon salt, divided • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper, divided • 1 1/4 pounds wild-caught salmon fillet, skinned (see Tip) and cut into 4 portions Tips & Notes Make Ahead Tip: Prepare through Step 3, cover and refrigerate the sauce for up to 1 day. Reheat the sauce just before serving. Note:Bottled clam juice can be high in sodium. We like Bar Harbor brand, which has 120 mg sodium per 2-ounce serving. Look for it near canned fish or in the seafood department. Tip:For more information about wild-caught salmon, visit seafoodwatch.org. To skin a salmon fillet, place it skin-side down and, starting at the tail end, slip a long, sharp knife between flesh and skin, holding the skin down with your other hand. Gently push the blade along at a 30° angle, without cutting through fillet or skin.

26. Directions Combine mushrooms and boiling water in a small bowl. Soak until the mushrooms are softened, 12 to 15 minutes. Strain the soaking liquid through a paper towel-lined sieve into a bowl. Rinse the mushrooms; finely chop. Stir together 1 tablespoon of the soaking liquid and cornstarch in a small bowl. Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add shallots and cook, stirring, until softened, about 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook for 1 minute more. Stir in wine and cook, stirring, until reduced to about 1/2 cup, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the remaining soaking liquid and seafood stock (or clam juice) to the pan. Bring to a simmer and cook until the sauce is reduced to 1 1/2 cups, 10 to 14 minutes. Stir the cornstarch mixture and stir it into the simmering sauce. Cook, stirring, until slightly thickened, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in butter, lemon juice and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Meanwhile, season salmon with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the salmon and cook until just cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Serve with the mushroom sauce.

29. Directions To prepare stuffing & chicken: Combine spinach and breadcrumbs in a medium bowl with chicken livers (if using), Parmesan, egg, fennel fronds (if using), 2 tablespoons shallot, 1 tablespoon garlic, thyme, 1/2 teaspoon pepper and 1/4 teaspoon salt until well blended. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 1 day. Place a chicken thigh skinned-side down on a work surface. Fill the thigh with 2 to 3 tablespoons of the stuffing, first filling the area (or pocket) left by the bone and placing the rest in the center of the thigh. Roll the thigh closed and secure with 2 pieces of kitchen string. Repeat with the remaining thighs and stuffing. (You may have leftover stuffing.) Season with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper and salt. Heat oil in a large, heavy, high-sided skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium and add half the thighs, seam-side down. Cook, turning 2 or 3 times, until brown on all sides, 7 to 10 minutes total. Transfer to a clean plate and repeat with the remaining thighs. To prepare sauce: Add onion, carrot, fennel, 1/4 cup shallot and 2 tablespoons garlic to the pan. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are soft and beginning to brown, about 5 minutes. Add wine and scrape up any browned bits; bring to a boil over medium heat and continue to boil until the liquid is reduced by about half, 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in broth, tomatoes, basil, thyme and the chicken thighs. Bring to a boil over high heat; reduce heat to a simmer and cook, uncovered and turning the thighs occasionally, until cooked through and tender, 35 to 40 minutes. Remove the thighs with a slotted spoon; tent with foil to keep warm. Simmer the sauce further to thicken it, if desired, or thin with a little broth or water if it’s too thick. Season with 1/2 teaspoon pepper and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Serve the chicken with the sauce.
