Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• in a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon of the olive oil with vinegar and salt.
• Place the mushroom slices on a baking sheet and brush with the mixture.
• Roast until the mushrooms are fork-tender, about 20 minutes.
• Brush the red pepper with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil.
• Hold the pepper with a long fork over an open flame, or roast under the broiler, turning often, until the skin gets black on all sides.
• This will take about 7 to 10 minutes over the flame and about 10 minutes in the broiler.
• Put the pepper in a paper bag and close tightly to steam it.
• When the pepper is cool enough to handle, peel off the skin and remove the seeds and stem.
• Slice the pepper into strips.
• To assemble the sandwiches, spread the ciabatta halves with mayo.
• Layer with the arugula leaves and read pepper slives, and top with the portobello slices to cover the length of the sandwiches.
• Spread the remainder of the mayo on the other sides of the bread and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Basic Pizza Dough:
• In a small mixing bowl, whisk together yeast, warm water, sugar, oregano, and olive oil. Let sit for about 3 minutes to fully dissolve and activate the yeast.
• In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour and salt.
• With a rubber spatula, gradually mix the yeast mixture into the flour until just combined and dough barely holds together. Turn the dough out onto a clean counter surface dusted with flour.
• Knead the dough with flour-dusted hands until the dough has become smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. The surface should be tight and silky and bounce back slightly when pressed. Lightly grease a large mixing bowl with olive oil and place the dough in it.
• Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and set in a warm place to rise until doubled in size, 1 to 2 hours.
• Once doubled, punch the dough down and divide it into 2 equal pieces. Knead each 1 slightly to form a uniform ball. Set aside and cover them with a kitchen towel or plastic wrap to rest for 30 minutes.
• Piadini:.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
• Lightly dust the work surface and rolling pin with flour. Roll the dough out into an 8 by 11-inch oval.
• Melt butter with oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
• Add mushrooms. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally until mushrooms are softened (about 4-6 minutes).
• Add egg beaters and cook until eggs are no longer runny.
• In a medium bowl, mix the spinach, ricotta, feta and egg/mushroom mixture.
• Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Place all the filling in the center of the dough leaving a 1-inch border along the edge.
• Fold each corner over to the center. Forming a square.
• Place the calzone on a baking sheet dusted with cornmeal and brush the top with olive oil.
• Bake until golden brown and the center is hot and melted, 20-25 minutes, rotating midway through cooking.

Steps:

• Heat grill to high. Brush mushroom caps on both sides with oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill, cap side down, until slightly charred, about 4 to 5 minutes. Turn the mushrooms over and continue grilling until just cooked through, about 3 to 4 minutes longer.

Add another mushroom cap, more vinaigrette, spinach, and another slice of cheese. Place a third mushroom cap on top and finish by drizzling with additional vinaigrette and garnishing with chopped chives, if desired.

Steps:

• Combine the flour, baking soda, and 1 teaspoon of salt in the bowl of an upright mixer fitted with a dough hook attachment. Add the butter and mix on low speed until incorporated, about 2 minutes. With the machine running, slowly add 10 to 12 tablespoons water until the mixture forms a dough around the hook. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface and knead for 5 minutes until smooth. Cut the dough into 4 equal pieces. Form into disk shapes and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Place a grill pan over medium-high heat or preheat a gas or charcoal grill. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out each piece of dough into an 8 to 10-inch circle, about 1/8-inch thick. Brush each circle with the extra-virgin olive oil and grill for 4 minutes each side. Remove the piadina from the grill to cool slightly. Combine the ricotta cheese and lemon zest in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Spread each piadina with 1/2 cup of the ricotta mixture. Sprinkle the fontina cheese evenly over the ricotta cheese. Arrange 2 prosciutto slices on top of the cheeses. Cut each piadina into 8 wedges and transfer to a serving platter. Garnish with the chopped basil.

Steps:

• Mix flour and salt together in a large bowl. Mix in water a little at a time. Rub in lard until dough comes together in a ball.

• Heat a dry, heavy skillet or flat griddle over medium-high heat. Cook each piece until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side.
