TRICOLOR SALAD ALLA SPLENDIDO

Steps:

• Cut tuna into 4 even portions; season both sides with salt and pepper. With a peeler, cut 4 long strips from skin of lemon; place in a small pot with the bay leaves and tuna. Add about 2 cups oil, or enough to just cover the tuna. Over medium heat, bring oil to about 140 degrees and gently poach for 10 minutes, adjusting or turning off heat to maintain temperature, until tuna is cooked through. Turn off heat and allow tuna to cool in the oil for 10 minutes. Cut into 1/4-inch slices.
• Wash and dry all greens well. Keep leaves whole and place in a large bowl.
• Heat remaining 1/2 cup oil in a small saucepan with the capers, olives and raisins. Once they begin to fry lightly and become aromatic, add tuna slices and pour mixture over the greens. Juice the lemon and add 2 tablespoons juice, along with lime juice, parsley and chives. Toss well and season with salt and pepper to taste. Divide among 4 plates and serve immediately.

TRICOLORE CHOPPED SALAD

Steps:

• Make the dressing: In a medium bowl, whisk the vinegar, olive oil, mascarpone, walnut oil, salt and pepper. Using a rubber spatula, fold in the crumbled gorgonzola. Let the dressing sit at room temperature for 10 minutes to let the flavors mingle, or refrigerate until ready to use.
• Make the salad: In a large bowl, combine the radicchio, endive, kale, dates and toasted walnuts. Add the dressing and toss gently until evenly coated. Ribbon the prosciutto on a serving platter and mound the salad on top. Top with shaved gorgonzola.
• To make shaving the gorgonzola easier, freeze a piece of the cheese for at least 2 hours, then use a vegetable peeler to shave some over the salad.

GRAND MARNIER SOUFFLé

Steps:

• For the soufflé base: In a small saucepan, combine the flour and sugar. In another small pan, bring the milk to a simmer. Slowly add the hot milk to the flour mixture, whisking until smooth. Place over medium heat and stir until the mixture simmers and thickens. Stir in the butter, then the egg yolks, one at a time, then the Grand Marnier. Remove from heat and stir in almonds or candied orange or ginger, if using. Allow to cool.
• For finishing: Heat oven to 425 degrees. Butter the interiors and outer rims of four 8-ounce soufflé dishes. Generously sprinkle the buttered areas with sugar, tapping out any excess. Using an electric mixer, beat the egg whites to soft peaks, then gradually beat in the sugar. Continue to beat just until the whites are stiff but not dry; do not overbeat. Fold a large spoonful of the beaten whites into the soufflé base, then fold the base into the remaining whites just until blended.
• Divide the mixture among the prepared dishes, filling to about 1/4 inch from the top. Run a knife around the inside edge of each dish to about halfway down to release the batter from the side of the dish.
• Place the dishes in a small baking pan, and add enough hot water to the pan to come about 1/4 inch up the side of the dishes. Bake until the soufflés are well risen and lightly browned, about 13 minutes. Serve immediately.
