Braised Kale With Pinto Beans and Pancetta

Image
Submitted by  jessi_mcg "This is a really delicious recipe from Cooking Light that is perfect to use up the bounty of kale that comes around this time of year. It is hearty enough with the beans and pancetta to please a more carnivorous crowd. Please be aware that the cook times are fairly relative--everyone considers greens "done" a bit differently. I altered the recipe a bit, so I will share what I did as well :). This was great served with hot cooked farro, and I'm sure any other grain would be just as good." ingredients Units:  Metric 473.18 ml  onions , chopped (they suggest red, I used Vidalia) 28.34 g  pancetta , chopped (I used bacon) 3 garlic cloves , minced 2602.49 ml  kale , chopped (about 1 1/4 pounds) 2.46 ml  black pepper 1.23 ml  salt 425.24 g can  pinto beans , rinsed and drained 396.89 g can  beef broth  (I used chicken broth) directions Heat a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat.

Magic Chocolate Flan Cake

Image
  Our very dear friend Deborah gave me this recipe. She made it one year for Thanksgiving and even though we were so full from her delicious dinner, we made room for dessert, because it was fabulous! Turns out it's from America's Test Kitchen, so not surprising. Serves 16 It's worth using good quality caramel sauce such as Fat Toad Farm Goat's Milk Caramel. Deborah used Trader Joe's Caramel Sauce (buy 2 so you have the extra to serve with). If your blender doesn't hold 2 quarts, process the flan in two batches. The cake needs to chill for at least 8 hours before you can unmold it. Ingredients Cake 1/2 cup caramel sauce or topping 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons (3 1/8 ounces) all-purpose flour 1/3 cup (1 ounce) cocoa 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1/8 teaspoon salt 4 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped 6 tablespoons unsalted butter 1/2 cup buttermilk 1/2 cup (3 1/2 ounces) sugar 2 large eggs 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Flan 2 14-ounce cans sweetened condensed milk) 2/12 c...
