Lemon Pepper Cheese Coins Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the spaghetti al dente according to package directions. Reserve 2 cups of pasta water and drain.
• Add 4 tablespoons of the butter to a large, straight-sided pan and heat over medium. Once melted, add the pepper and toast for about 1 minute and 30 seconds. Add in about 1 1/4 cups of the reserved pasta water and the lemon zest, bring to a light simmer. Turn the heat down to medium-low and add the cooked spaghetti, Pecorino Romano, Parmigiano-Reggiano and the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Using tongs or two wooden spoons, toss the pasta and cheese together, incorporating about 1/2 additional cup more pasta water. Keep tossing the pasta until the cheese has completely melted and the sauce is silky and coating the pasta, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the lemon juice and chives and toss to combine. Serve immediately, topped with extra Pecorino Romano and black pepper.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the fettuccine and cook as the label directs. Drain, reserving about 1/2 cup cooking water.
• Meanwhile, melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the shallot and a pinch of salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly golden, about 3 minutes. Whisk the cream, egg yolk and lemon zest in a bowl. Reduce the heat to low and add the cream mixture and cheese to the skillet. Cook, whisking, until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and 2 to 3 teaspoons pepper.
• Add the pasta to the skillet and toss, adding enough of the reserved cooking water to loosen the sauce. Divide among bowls and garnish with more pecorino. Serve with crusty bread, if desired.

Steps:

• Combine the flour, cheese, lemon zest, pepper and salt in a food processor.
• Process until combined. Add the butter and pulse until the dough resembles coarse crumbs.
• Add the sour cream and egg yolk and pulse again until just incorporated.
• Test the dough by squeezing a bit between your fingertips, if it's too dry to hold together, sprinkle on a bit of lemon juice and pulse again. When the dough holds together, dump it onto a lightly floured surface and press into either a 12 inch long or a flat disk. Wrap in plastic and chill for 2 hours, or up to 2 days. (I froze mine, it should keep a long time in that state.).
• Heat the oven to 375°. For a log, slice it into coins just under 1/4 inch thick. For a disk, roll it out to just under 1/8 inch thick and stamp out 1 1/2 or 2 inch rounds or other shapes with a cookie cutter.
• Arrange them on a ungreased baking sheet and bake until well browned around the edges and no longer doughy in the center, 15 -18 minute for thinner coins, 20 -22 minute for thicker ones. Use a spatula to careful transfer the coins to a cooling rack. (You can use parchment and just slide the whole thing off the cookie sheet to cool.).

Steps:

• In the bowl of a food processor, combine flour, both cheeses, black pepper, salt and paprika, and pulse until well combined and sandy, about 30 seconds. Add butter and scallions, and pulse just until well blended, about 30 seconds. Continue pulsing and drizzle in 2 tablespoons of ice-cold water just until the dough comes together.
• Transfer dough to a lightly floured work surface and divide in half. Roll each half into a log that is 1 inch in diameter and about 12 inches long. If using sesame seeds, spread them onto the work surface and roll the log over the seeds until lightly coated. Wrap each piece of dough in plastic wrap and chill until firm, about 2 hours or overnight.
• Place racks in upper and lower thirds of the oven and heat oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
• Using a sharp knife, slice chilled logs into ¼-inch-thick slices. Arrange them on the prepared sheets about ½ inch apart. Bake, switching the sheets from top to bottom and rotating halfway through, until golden and just firm (they will continue to crisp up as they cool), 23 to 25 minutes.
• Let cookies cool on the baking sheets for 2 minutes, then transfer them onto wire racks to cool completely. Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature overnight, then refrigerate for up to 1 week. To recrisp after refrigerating and serve warm, heat in a 350 degree oven for 5 minutes.

Steps:

• In a food processor, pulse to combine flour, salt, and spices. Add butter; pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add cheddar; process until dough starts to hold together.
• Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface; knead a few times. Divide into four equal pieces, and roll into logs, each about 6 inches long and 1 1/4 inches wide. Wrap in plastic; refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour or up to 3 days. (Dough can be frozen up to 1 month; thaw until pliable.)
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut dough into 1/3-inch-thick slices; place 2 inches apart on parchment-lined baking sheets. Bake, rotating sheets halfway through, until lightly browned, about 20 minutes. Let cool on baking sheets 1 minute, then transfer coins to a wire rack to cool completely. Cheese coins can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 3 days.
• To serve, spoon a small amount of jelly onto center of each coin.

Steps:

• Stir together cream cheese, lemon zest and juice, and pepper in a bowl.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Combine eggs, sugar, cornmeal, melted butter, milk, and lemon juice in a large bowl. Mix until sugar is dissolved, but do not beat. Pour filling into unbaked pie shell.
• Bake at 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) for 10 minutes. Reduce temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), and continue to bake until set, about 45 minutes more. Serve at room temperature.
