PORK WITH SWEET ONION MARMELLATA

Steps:

• For the onion marmellata, place a large, heavy pot over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and the onions. Stir to combine and cook until starting to sizzle, about 2 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients. Reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and cook over low heat for 2 hours, stirring every 30 minutes to scrape up any brown bits. The onions should be a soft, jam-like consistency and a deep mahogany color.
• Meanwhile, for the pork chops, combine the rosemary, thyme, garlic, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Using your fingers, work all the ingredients together until well combined. Rub the herb mixture over the pork chops. Cover with plastic wrap and reserve in the refrigerator.
• About 20 minutes before the onions are finished, remove the pork chops from the refrigerator. Place a grill pan over medium-high heat or preheat a gas or charcoal grill. Grill the pork chops to medium, about 7 minutes a side depending on thickness. To serve, spoon the onion marmellata over the pork chops. Sprinkle with the chopped parsley. Serve immediately.

• In a saucepan, heat the oil. Add the pancetta and cook over moderate heat until browned and most of the fat has been rendered, 4 minutes. Add the onion and rosemary, cover and cook over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until the onion is tender and golden, 10 minutes. Stir in the marmalade; season with salt and pepper. Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook until al dente. Drain the pasta, reserving 1/3 cup of the cooking water. Return the pasta to the saucepan. Add the onion-orange mixture and the reserved cooking water; toss well. Season with salt and pepper and transfer to plates. Sprinkle with the cheese and serve right away.

ONION AND ORANGE MARMALADE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Heat oil in a deep 12-inch heavy ovenproof skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then sauté onions with bay leaves and clove, stirring frequently, until soft and beginning to brown, 25 to 30 minutes.
• While onions are sautéing, cook sugar and oranges in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over moderate heat, stirring frequently, until sugar is melted and oranges are caramelized, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Add stock and vinegar to onions and bring to a boil, then carefully stir in oranges (mixture will bubble up and steam vigorously). Boil, stirring, until caramel is dissolved, about 3 minutes.
• Carefully transfer skillet to oven and bake, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until most of liquid is evaporated, 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 hours. Serve warm.

BLOOD ORANGE MARMALADE WITH ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Put very thinly sliced blood oranges and lemon into a non-reactive pan with the water over low heat. Cook for 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Turn off heat and let sit, covered, overnight.
• Sterilize the jars in boiling water for 15min. Do not boil the canning lids, but scald them in the just-boiled water after the heat is turned off. Leave the jars and lids in the water until needed.
• Meanwhile, measure the citrus pulp, rind and liquid. For every cup of citrus mixture, add 3/4 cup of sugar.
• Return the citrus and the sugar to the pot over medium high heat and add the rosemary. Bring to low boil, stirring often. Reduce the heat and cook at a low simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Turn off the heat. Test for gel by putting a small spoonful of the marmalade on a plate in the freezer for one minute. The marmalade should form a skin and wrinkle when pushed (you can back this up with the spoon "sheeting" test if you are familiar with it). If not ready, return to the heat and test again a few minutes later. When the gel stage has been reached, turn off the heat, remove the rosemary, and ladle the marmalade into clean sterilized jars.
• Process in a boiling water bath (water at a full rolling boil covering the jars by at least one inch) for five minutes.
