BAKED ARTICHOKE PASTA WITH CREAMY GOAT CHEESE
This cheese-filled pasta bake gets its sweet and crunchy topping from a layer of canned fried onions and Parmesan cheese sprinkled on top. Canned artichokes give it a savory depth, while a combination of goat cheese, cream cheese and mozzarella make it wonderfully gooey. Make sure to use plain - not marinated - artichokes, which will be too sharp and acidic here. You're looking for a mellow richness in this comforting casserole.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 425 degrees and bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil. Cook fusilli according to package directions until 3 minutes shy of al dente. Reserve 3 cups pasta water, then drain.
- Meanwhile, in a large oven-proof skillet, heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook scallion whites until softened, about 5 minutes, then add garlic and cook another 1 minute. Stir in red-pepper flakes, and cook another 30 seconds.
- Whisk in 1 1/2 cups pasta water, cream cheese and goat cheese, and simmer, whisking, until smooth. Stir in artichokes, 1 cup fried onions, the mozzarella, the parsley, the dill and the reserved scallion greens, then stir in cooked pasta and black pepper. Add more pasta water if it seems too dry; you want this to be fairly liquid, because the pasta will soak up the sauce as it bakes. Taste and add some salt if needed.
- Top pasta with remaining cup of fried onions and the Parmesan. Bake until filling is bubbly and onions are browned, about 10 to 20 minutes. Serve drizzled with olive oil, and with more red-pepper flakes on the side if you like.

FIG AND GOAT CHEESE BRUSCHETTAS
Steps:
- Place the orange zest and orange juice in a medium (10-inch) heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven, such as Le Creuset. Add the sugar, vanilla bean, and figs to the pot. Cover and bring to a full boil over medium heat. (Don't worry; it may look dry.) Stir the mixture and boil hard for 1 minute, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Lower the heat, and cook uncovered at a full simmer for 50 minutes to 1 hour and 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. You want the little bubbles to be throughout the pot, not just at the edges. After 45 minutes, refrigerate a small amount of the liquid to see if it becomes syrupy. It should be like a soft fruit preserve. Keep cooking just until the liquid starts to gel when cold. If the liquid is too firm, add a little orange juice or water, cook for a minute, and test it again until it's right. Depending on how ripe the figs are, they will probably keep their shape, but it's fine if they don't. Discard the vanilla bean and serve or refrigerate.
- Before serving, toast or grill the bread and spread with goat cheese. Spoon the fig preserves on, then the grated orange zest if using, and serve.

Steps:
- Combine oil, garlic bulbs, and rosemary in a small saucepan; bring to a simmer over medium. Reduce heat to low; simmer until garlic is golden, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat; let cool.
- Squeeze 2 lemon halves into a large bowl of water; add rinds. Working with 1 artichoke at a time, remove tough outer leaves closest to stem end, then trim pointy tips of remaining outer leaves with kitchen shears. With a serrated knife, cut off top 1 inch; with a paring knife, trim and peel stem. (Transfer to lemon water as you work to prevent discoloration.)
- Set a steamer basket in a large pot; add enough water to reach just below basket and bring to a boil. Squeeze remaining 2 lemon halves into pot. Add artichokes, season with salt, and cover. Steam until hearts are easily pierced with the tip of a knife, 30 to 35 minutes. Transfer to a plate; let stand until cool enough to handle, then cut in half lengthwise and scoop out and discard fuzzy chokes.
- Strain infused oil; discard rosemary. Mash garlic bulbs into a paste and stir into goat cheese with 1/4 cup infused oil, green garlic tops, and red-pepper flakes. Season with salt.
- Heat grill to high. Brush artichokes with infused oil; season with salt. Grill, brushing with more oil and turning a few times, until charred in places, 8 to 10 minutes. Grill bread, turning once, until charred in places, 1 to 2 minutes. Lightly brush bread with infused oil.
- Remove artichoke leaves from bottoms; cut bottoms into slices and reserve leaves for eating separately. Slather grilled bread with goat-cheese mixture and top with sliced artichokes. Drizzle with more infused oil, sprinkle with more red-pepper flakes and green garlic tops, and serve.

Tips:
- Choose ripe artichokes. Look for artichokes that are heavy for their size and have tightly closed leaves.
- Prepare the artichokes properly. Trim the stem and the top third of the artichoke leaves. Then, use a spoon to scoop out the hairy choke from the center of the artichoke.

- Toast the bread slices until they are golden brown. This will help them to hold up to the toppings.

- Top the goat cheese with the artichoke hearts, sun-dried tomatoes, and fresh herbs.
- Drizzle the bruschetta with olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
- Serve the bruschetta immediately.
