BIZCOCHO DOMINICANO (DOMINICAN CAKE)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). Line the bottom of two 9-inch cake pans with parchment paper.
• Beat together Butter (1 cup) and Granulated Sugar (1 2/3 cup) until mixture is light and fluffy, about 5-8 minutes.
• Add the Egg (3) and additional yolks of the Egg (3) one by one and continue beating until each is well incorporated into the mixture before adding the next. Save the egg whites for the meringue later.
• Add the Zest of the Lime (1/2), Orange Juice (1/4 cup), and Dominican White Vanilla Extract (1 tablespoon). Mix until well-combined.
• Sift All-Purpose Flour (2 cup), Baking Powder (3 teaspoon), and Salt (1/4 teaspoon) together.
• Continue mixing on low while adding the dried ingredients and the Evaporated Milk (1 cup). Mix until the batter is smooth, but make sure not to over mix. Use your spatula to make sure there are no lumps.
• Divide the batter evenly into the cake pans. Smooth the tops.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick or knife inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool down cakes to room temperature before removing from the pan.
• In a sauce pan over medium high heat, mix Granulated Sugar (1 1/2 cup) and Water (1/2 cup). Stir until the sugar dissolves.
• Bring heat to medium and simmer until it reaches 235 degrees F (112 degrees C). If you do not have a thermometer, simmer until the mixture is at a soft boil. This usually takes about 10 minutes. The mixture should be thick and still light in color.
• Using the wire whisk attachment, beat 4 egg whites (use the three reserved egg whites and an additional egg white from Egg (1)) until their volume has doubled, about 3 minutes.
• Slowly add the sugar and water syrup while mixing on high, and mix until stiff peaks form.
• Add Dominican White Vanilla Extract (1 teaspoon) and mix to combine.
• Level out the cakes if necessary. Use the bottom of the cake as the top.
• Pipe the meringue in a circle around the edge of the cake.
• Spread the Guava Paste (to taste) over top. Stack the other cake.
• To decorate the cake, spread the meringue on top and around the cake, leave a little bit of white meringue to color if you want. Decorate according to your taste and abilities.
• Serve and enjoy!

DOMINICAN SANCOCHO

Steps:

• Cook longaniza (if using) with 1/2 cup water in a 12-inch heavy skillet, covered, over medium heat, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides and water has evaporated, about 10 minutes. Cut crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces, then transfer to an 8-quart pot.
• Cook bacon in skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until crisp, then transfer to pot with a slotted spoon, reserving fat in skillet.
• Meanwhile, cut meat from beef shank into 1 1/2-inch pieces, reserving bone. Pat beef, pork, and chicken dry, putting them in separate bowls. Toss meat in each bowl with 1/2 teaspoon salt.
• Heat fat in skillet over medium-high heat until hot, then add beef and bone in 1 layer and brown, turning occasionally, about 7 minutes. Transfer to pot with slotted spoon. Brown pork and chicken in separate batches in same manner, transferring to pot.
• Add onion, peppers, garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon salt to skillet and sauté until softened. Add 1 cup water and boil, stirring and scraping up brown bits, 1 minute. Transfer vegetable mixture to pot. Add cilantro stems, oregano, 2 teaspoons salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and remaining 3 quarts water to pot and bring to a boil. Skim off any foam, then simmer, partially covered, stirring occasionally, until meat is tender, about 1 1/2 hours.
• While meat simmers, cut ends from plantains with a sharp small knife, then cut a lengthwise slit through peel. Beginning at slit, pry off peel, then cut plantains crosswise into 1-inch-thick pieces.
• Trim ends from yuca and cut crosswise into 2-inch pieces, then peel, removing waxy brown skin and pinkish layer underneath. Quarter lengthwise and cut out coarse center fiber.
• Peel ñame and yautía, then cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces and keep in a bowl of cold water.
• Seed and peel calabaza, then cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces.
• Add plantain and yuca to tender meat in pot and simmer, partially covered, stirring occasionally, 15 minutes. Drain ñame and yautía and add to pot along with calabaza, then simmer, partially covered, stirring occasionally, 20 minutes. Remove and discard beef and chicken bones.
• Add corn and simmer, partially covered, stirring occasionally, until corn is tender and all root vegetables are very tender (yuca should be translucent), 10 to 15 minutes. Sancocho broth should be slightly thickened from root vegetables; thin with additional water if necessary. Stir in juice and reheat, then season with salt and pepper.

BIZCOCHO DOMINICANO (DOMINICAN CAKE)

Steps:

• FILLING:.
• Combine all the filling ingredients in a medium saucepan over high heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low. Continue cooking, stirring frequently, until pineapple is tender and mixture becomes thick and jammy (this will take about 1 hour). Drain off any excess liquid and set mixture aside to cool to room temperature This part can be done up to 3 days ahead, just store filling in fridge until ready to use.
• CAKE:.
• Spray a 9 or 10" Bundt pan with Baker's Joy (or any cooking spray with flour in it).
• Cream butter and sugar in a large mixing bowl with an electric mixer for about 5 minutes, or until the mixture is pale and fluffy. Add the room temp eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Beat in vanilla, orange juice and orange zest.
• Reduce mixer speed to low. Add the salt and half the flour and mix well. Scrape the sides of the bowl, add the cream, and mix well again. Add the rest of the flour and mix well. Beat this mixture for 5 minutes on medium-high speed.
• Spread 2/3 of the cake batter evenly in the prepared pan. Spoon the cooled pineapple filling on top of the batter, making sure that no fruit touches either the outer or inner edges of the pan (you want the filling to be totally enclosed within the cake and not visible from the outside once the cake is baked). Spread the remaining cake batter over the fruit layer, taking care not to disturb the ring of filling as much as possible.
• Place pan on the middle rack of a cold oven, then turn oven on to 350 deg. F. Bake for about 1 hour, or until cake is golden brown and a tester comes out with only a few dry crumbs.
• Cool cake in the pan for about 30 minutes. Gently loosen cake from sides of pan with a thin knife, then invert it onto a wire rack to cool. If any of the filling has sunk and fallen out of the top of the cake, arrange this over the top of the cake.
• Allow cake to cool completely (approx. 2 hours). Dust with powdered sugar immediately before serving. Slice and serve with the chopped pineapple or pineapple rings, if desired.
• Note about eggs: if you don't have time to wait for the eggs to come to room temp on their own, place them in a medium bowl and cover with very warm water. Allow them to sit in the water for about 5 to 10 minutes before using.
