Steps:
- For the pastry, place the sugar and lemon zest in a food processor for 5 seconds.
- Add the butter, egg yolk, water, and vanilla and pulse until the mixture looks granular and lumpy; the butter should be in about 1/4-inch pieces.
- Add the flour and pulse rapidly 20 to 30 times, stopping occasionally to scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl, until the mixture almost gathers into a ball.
- Turn the dough out onto a piece of plastic wrap and press the dough into a 1-inch-thick cake.
- Wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
- Adjust an oven rack to the lower third position and preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- Butter a 9-inch springform pan.
- Detach the sides; set aside.
- Cut off slightly less than one half of the dough.
- Break it into pieces, and scatter them over the springform bottom.
- Press firmly and evenly with your fingertips to make a thin layer.
- Set the bottom crust in the oven and bake until pale golden brown, about 8 minutes.
- Remove from the oven with a wide metal spatula and set on a cooling rack to cool completely.
- In- crease the oven temperature to 525 degrees.
- Shape the remaining pastry into a square.
- Roll it out on a lightly floured surface to a rectangle slightly larger than 10x6-inches.
- With a large sharp knife, trim away the edges so that the pastry measures 10x6-inches.
- Cut the pastry crosswise into five 2-inch strips.
- Reassemble the springform pan.
- Line the sides of the pan with 4 of the pastry strips, pressing the pieces firmly together where their edges meet and pressing the pastry firmly against the pan so that it will stay in place.
- Cut what you need from the last strip to fill in the last gap.
- Refrigerate while you prepare the filling.
- For the filling, beat the cream cheese in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth.
- Add the sugar, flour, salt, zests, and vanilla and beat until smooth, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Beat in the eggs and yolks one at a time, beating only until thoroughly incorporated, about 15 seconds after each.
- Beat for another 30 seconds.
- On low speed, beat in the heavy cream.
- Scrape the mixture into the pan and smooth the top.
- Bake for 10 minutes, then reduce the heat to 200 degrees and bake for 1 hour longer; the top will be golden brown.
- Cool to room temperature on a rack.
- Cover loosely and refrigerate for at least 6 hours; overnight is best.
- For the strawberry sauce, if the strawberries are small, reserve 1 cup of the prettiest ones.
- If they are large, slice enough to make 1 cup.
- Set aside.
- Place the remaining berries in a medium saucepan and crush with a potato masher.
- Add the sugar, water, salt, and cornstarch.
- Stir well with a heat- proof rubber spatula, and bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly.
- Reduce the heat to low and continue cooking, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes, or until the sauce is slightly thickened.
- Remove from the heat and add the butter, lemon juice, and reserved berries.
- Cool to room temperature, then refrigerate until chilled.
- (The sauce can be made a day ahead.) To serve, run a small sharp knife around the edges of the cake to release the pastry and carefully remove the sides of the pan.
- Rinse a knife in hot water, shake off the excess water, and slice.
- Serve each portion with a spoonful of the strawberry sauce.
- Refrigerate leftovers.

NEW YORK CHEESECAKE
We find that different generations have different ideas about what a typical New York cheesecake is. To us, a New York cheesecake is high, firm, and dense, with a slightly lemony flavor. The Lindy's cheesecake in our January 1991 issue, adapted here for a simpler crust, is all of that. It's also a cake that keeps for up to two weeks and lends itself easily to flavor variations.

Steps:
- Make crumb crust as directed in separate recipe. Preheat oven to 550°F.
- Beat together cream cheese, sugar, flour, and zests with an electric mixer until smooth. Add eggs and yolks, 1 at a time, then vanilla, beating on low speed until each ingredient is incorporated and scraping down bowl between additions.
- Put springform pan with crust in a shallow baking pan. Pour filling into crust (springform pan will be completely full) and bake in baking pan (to catch drips) in middle of oven 12 minutes, or until puffed. Reduce temperature to 200°F and continue baking until cake is mostly firm (center will still be slightly wobbly when pan is gently shaken), about 1 hour more.
- Run a knife around top edge of cake to loosen and cool completely in springform pan on a rack. Chill cake, loosely covered, at least 6 hours. Remove side of pan and transfer cake to a plate. Bring to room temperature before serving.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 400°F. Lightly grease 9-inch springform pan with shortening; remove bottom. In medium bowl, mix all crust ingredients with fork until dough forms; gather into a ball. Press one-third of the dough evenly on bottom of pan. Place on cookie sheet. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until light golden brown; cool. Assemble bottom and side of pan; secure side. Press remaining dough 2 inches up side of pan.
- Increase oven temperature to 475°F. In large bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar, flour, orange peel, lemon peel and salt with electric mixer on medium speed about 1 minute or until smooth. Beat in eggs, 2 egg yolks and 1/4 cup whipping cream, beating on low speed until well blended. Pour into baked crust. Bake 15 minutes.
- Reduce oven temperature to 200°F. Bake 1 hour longer. Cheesecake may not appear to be done, but if a small area in the center seems soft, it will become firm as cheesecake cools. (Do not insert a knife to test for doneness because the hole could cause cheesecake to crack.) Turn off oven; leave cheesecake in oven 30 minutes longer. Remove from oven and cool in pan on cooling rack away from drafts 30 minutes.
- Without releasing or removing side of pan, run metal spatula carefully along side of pan to loosen cheesecake. Refrigerate uncovered about 3 hours or until chilled; cover and continue refrigerating at least 9 hours but no longer than 48 hours.
- Run metal spatula along side of pan to loosen cheesecake again. Remove side of pan; leave cheesecake on pan bottom to serve. In chilled small bowl, beat 3/4 cup whipping cream with electric mixer on high speed until stiff. Spread whipped cream over top of cheesecake. Decorate with almonds. Store covered in refrigerator.
