EMERALD CITY ARTICHOKE OLIVE OIL CAKE WITH KIWI FILLING AND WHIPPED CREAM FROSTING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line cupcake pans with cupcake liners (for a total of 28 cupcakes).
• For the artichoke cake batter: In a food processor, puree the artichokes. Measure out the artichoke puree--you should have about 1 1/3 cups; if not, process more artichokes until you have 1 1/3 cups total. Put the artichokes back in the food processor, add the eggs and process until smooth.
• Add the artichoke mixture, sugar, olive oil, lemon zest and lemon emulsion to a large bowl and mix for 1 minute until well blended. Mix in the flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda until well blended and smooth.
• Fill the cupcake liners about two-thirds full with the batter. Bake until an inserted toothpick comes out clean, 16 to 19 minutes. Allow the cupcakes to cool completely before frosting.
• For the kiwi filling: Put the kiwis in a food processor and pulse until there are still small chunks and the mixture is not completely smooth. Transfer to a bowl, mix in the sugar and instant pectin with a whisk and continue mixing for 3 minutes. Refrigerate until thickened, about 30 minutes.
• For the frosting: Whisk the sugar and egg whites in a double boiler until the mixture is slippery. In an electric mixer, beat the sugar mixture on high until stiff peaks form, about 5 minutes. Mix in the butter one tablespoon at a time until fully incorporated. Mix in the vanilla bean paste.
• Use a cupcake corer to remove the centers of the cupcakes. Using a spoon or piping bag, fill the center of each cupcake with some kiwi filling. Using a piping bag, pipe some frosting onto each cupcake.

RED SNAPPER "ART DECO": FLORIDA RED SNAPPER, PURPLE POTATOES, AND PICKLED PINK ONIONS IN A KEY LIME SAUCE

Steps:

• In a shallow pan, over high heat, combine all the ingredients for the court bouillon and bring to a simmer. Season generously with salt.
• Place 4 of the snapper fillets into the court bouillon, making sure that they are fully submerged. The liquid should remain just below a simmer. Cook the fish for about 8 minutes until cooked through and remove to a plate. Repeat this with the rest of the fillets. Serve with the purple potatoes, pickled pink onions and the key lime sauce.
• Place the potatoes in a medium pot and fill with cold water to cover. Season the water with salt and bring to a boil. Cook until the potatoes are tender but not falling apart, about 15 minutes. Drain the potatoes and toss lightly with 2 tablespoons butter.
• Meanwhile, bring another pot of water to a boil and season with salt.
• In a medium saute pan, over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of butter and shallots. Cook the shallots until soft but not brown. Season with pepper.
• Place the tatsoi or other leafy green into the boiling water and cook for about 20 seconds. Drain well. Add the tatsoi to the shallots and butter and toss.
• In a saute pan, over medium heat, add the oil. Add the onions and toss to coat with oil. Reduce heat to medium and cook for 2 minutes. Add the sugar and cook for 2 more minutes. Add the orange juice, zest, and red wine vinegar and cook until nearly all the liquid has reduced. Season with salt and white pepper. Set aside until ready to serve.
• In a small saucepan, away from the heat, add rum, limes, shallots, and garlic. Place the saucepan over medium heat and allow the rum to flame until it self extinguishes. Add the wine and reduce by half. Add the turmeric, annatto seeds, sriracha and cream and simmer to reduce, about 5 minutes. Season with salt. Strain the sauce and keep warm. If the sauce is too thin, it can be thickened with a little cornstarch before straining.
