		<description><![CDATA[&#160; Ingredient 1 piece Large Eggplant 1-2 cup Basic Tomato Sauce (jarred or homemade) 15 ounces Ricotta Cheese 1 head garlic (roasted)   1/2 bunch Fresh Basil plus more for layering and topping (chopped) 1-2 sprigs Fresh Oregano (leaves removed and roughly chopped) 1 piece Egg (whisked)   1/3 pound Hot Italian Sausage (browned and cooked through)   1/4 cup Olive oil Hot Pepper Flakes (for garnish) Salt Fresh Ground Pepper Grated Smoked Mozzarella Cheese (to taste) Grated Pecorino Romano (to taste) &#160; Procedure Preheat half of the grill to high heat, and the other half to more moderate heat. Cut the eggplant into rounds.  Salt the slices liberally, and place them on paper towels to drain the liquid. Wipe the excess liquid and salt off of the eggplant; brush with olive oil.  Season both sides with salt and pepper.  Grill the eggplant on the hot side of the grill for 1-2 minutes per side, or until grill marks are formed and the eggplant is softened, but not falling apart. Reserve. Prep Ricotta Cheese Mixture: Add basil, oregano, and several cloves of roasted garlic to the cheese.  Add a small handful of smoked mozzarella as well as 1-2 tablespoons of the pecorino Romano.  Stir, and taste.  Add salt, pepper, and more cheese if necessary.  If you like smoky flavors, feel free to add more mozzarella; likewise, if you like things garlicky add more garlic.  When you are happy with the mixture, add the egg, stirring to combine. To Assemble: Begin with a layer of tomato sauce in the bottom of the pans, followed with a layer of eggplant, then ricotta cheese, and crumbled sausage.  Repeat, layering in this manner until the eggplant is gone!  The top layer should be sauce followed by more grated smoked mozzarella and a little pecorino Romano.  Drizzle some olive oil over top to encourage browning. Cover the pan with foil and place on the moderate heat side of the grill to cook.  If your grill has a thermostat it should read about 350- just like an oven.  Cook covered for about 30 minutes.  Check the lasagna at this point to see if it is bubbling at the sides.  When it has begun to bubble, remove foil to encourage the cheese to brown.  Our grill has a rotisserie burner; we light it at this time and it helps to brown the cheese.  If your lasagnas won’t brown, remove from the grill and place under the broiler in the oven until the cheese is brown and crusty. Allow to rest and then unmold the spring form pan to reveal the lasagna. Garnish with additional basil, cheese, and hot pepper flakes.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ingredient 3 tablespoon freshly squeezed Lemon Juice 1 tablespoon Red Wine Vinegar  1/4 teaspoon Dried Oregano 1 clove Garlic (smashed and finely chopped to a paste)  1/4 cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil 1 cup Quinoa 2 cup Red and Yellow Grape Tomatoes (halved) 1 cup pitted Kalamata Olives 2 Piece Green Onions (green and pale green part; thinly sliced) 2 Piece Pickled Cherry Peppers (diced) 1 Piece small Red Onion (halved and thinly sliced)  1/2 Piece English Cucumber (cut into small dice) Feta (for sprinkling) Salt and freshly ground Black Pepper Procedure Whisk together the lemon juice, vinegar, oregano, garlic and some salt and pepper in a small bowl. Slowly whisk in the oil until emulsified. Let sit at room temperature while you prepare the salad to allow the flavors to meld. Rinse the quinoa in a strainer until the water runs clear. Combine the quinoa, 2 cups water, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a small saucepan, bring to a boil and cook until the water is absorbed and the quinoa is tender, about 15 minutes. Transfer the quinoa to a bowl, fluff with a fork and let sit for 5 minutes to cool slightly. Add the tomatoes, olives, green onions, cherry peppers, red onions, cucumbers and dressing, and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 8 hours before serving. The longer it sits the better the flavor. Just before serving, transfer to a platter and sprinkle feta on top.]]></description>

Quickly dredge the oxtails in the flour and sear them on all sides until browned,  This should take 8 – 10 minutes.  Removed the browned oxtails to a plate and set aside. 3 Add the onions to the same pan and stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, cook them until lightly browned. Add the wine, stock, tomato sauce, chopped tomato and thyme and bring the mixture to a boil. Return the oxtails to the pot, submerging them in the liquid, and return the pot to a boil. Cover the casserole and cook  for  1 ½ – 2 hours, or until the meat is falling off the bone. 4 Carefully remove the oxtails with long-handled tongs.  When they are cool enough to handle remove the meat from the bones and shred into small pieces with a fork.  Discard the bones. 5 Return the shredded meat to the casserole.  Place the casserole over medium-high heat, bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and allow to reduce to a very thick ragú.
