- Seafood Stew with Lobster, Crab and Halibut (Cioppino)
In this Seafood Stew or Cioppino we begin by making the seafood stock then cooking the soup base . Prior to serving the seafood is cooked in the Convection or Convection Steam Oven. Anchor 1 YOUR RECIPE FOR STEAM COOKING Seafood Stew with Lobster, Crab and Halibut (Cioppino) Steam-Roasting Quick and easy seafood stew cooked perfectly in a steam oven. All the flavor for this dish comes from the soup base, that's why making a flavorful stock is so important. Steaming or poaching the seafood in the Steam oven and adding it to the soup ensures all the seafood cooks evenly and doesn't get mashed up in the pan. The traditional method of making Cioppino, Seafood Stew, is fairly straightforward. First, you create a flavorful broth then add the seafood and simmer for a few minutes before serving, but key to good flavor is a good fish or seafood stock, something the Italian fishermen who created this recipe had. In this version we begin by making the seafood stock then cooking the soup base, but we cook some of the seafood in the Convection or Convection Steam Oven. Why? Well when we broil or roast the fish in the oven the results are more flavorful and it’s easier to handle. A good seafood stock will of course give the best result, and it does take a hour or more to cook but it can be made in advance. Purchase shrimp in the shell and use the shells for the stock. Adding in some lobster tail shells and the smaller pieces of the crab claws will yield a very good stock, and you can use the shrimp, crab and lobster in the soup. INGREDIENTS Shellfish Stock 6 - cups assorted shellfish shells, shrimp, lobster and crab 1 - medium yellow onion, chopped 1 - carrot, chopped into large rounds 1 - celery stalk, chopped into 2” pieces ½ - cup dry white wine 2 - Tbsps. tomato paste 2 - sprigs each thyme & Italian parsley 1 - bay leaf 10 - whole peppercorns. Cioppino 3 - tablespoons olive oil 1 - medium yellow onion, diced 2 - shallots, diced 1 - fennel bulb, fronds & core removed, thinly sliced 4 - cloves garlic, minced ½ - teaspoon dried red chili flakes 4 - tablespoons tomato paste 1 - 28oz can whole tomatoes 1 - cup white wine 5 - cups shellfish stock 1 - bay leaf 2 - lobster tails, shell removed, flesh cut into 1” chunks (use the shell for the stock) 1- lb. shell on uncooked large shrimp (use the shell for the stock) ½ - lb. small crab claws and shell (for the stock) ½ -lb. large crab claws for the soup ½ -lb. manilla clams 1 ½ - lbs. firm fleshed fish, such as halibut or rock cod, cut into 2” chunks ½ - teaspoon mixed Italian seasoning 1 - lemon zest only PREPARATION Place the shells in a large stock pot and add enough water to cover the shells by 1”. Heat the water over moderate heat and keep it cooking at a very gentle heat just barely simmering for at least an hour. You should only see some bubbles come to the surface. Avoid stirring the ingredients to keep the stock clear during this time but keep skimming and discarding the foam that rises to the surface. Cooking the shells slowly this way without stirring will yield a flavorful stock. Once the stock is no longer releasing foam, add the wine, onions, carrots, celery, tomato paste, herbs and peppercorns. Continue simmering but do not boil for another 30 minutes, skimming off any foam that rises. Strain the stock through a fine mesh strainer and discard all the shells, season the stock with salt to taste and you are ready to make Cioppino. Cioppino Preparation Heat a large pan over medium heat, add the oil and sauté the onion for a few minutes. Stir in the shallots and fennel and cook over moderate heat for about 10 minutes to soften the fennel. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and sauté for 2 minutes before adding in the tomato paste, tomatoes, wine, fish stock and bay leaf. Simmer for 30 minutes, breaking up the tomatoes as they soften. Heat the oven in the Convection Roast or Convection Steam Mode 375 degrees. Place the cubed fish, lobster tails and shrimp in a stainless mixing bowl, drizzle with some olive oil and season with the Italian seasoning, lemon zest kosher salt and freshly ground pepper. Spread onto a rimmed baking pan and cook for 6 - 8 minutes. Add the clams and crab claws to the soup and simmer gently, when the fish and shellfish are ready gently stir into the soup together with the pan juices. This recipe serves 6 and don’t forget the perfect accompaniment to Cioppino is sourdough garlic bread. Cioppino .pdf Download PDF • 119KB WANT TO LEARN MORE?

- Braised Spareribs with Plum Sauce
This delicious recipe for spareribs with Asian flavors from chef Paul Tang makes a wonderful change from the typical BBQ rubs. Anchor 1 YOUR RECIPE FOR STEAM COOKING Braised Spareribs with Plum Sauce Steam-Roasting Tender, braised ribs prepared in a steam oven, garnished with fresh scallions and accompanied by a rich dipping sauce, showcasing flavor and technique. This delicious recipe for spareribs with Asian flavors from chef Paul Tang makes a wonderful change from the typical BBQ rubs. Ideally marinate the ribs overnight and cook them slowly in the Combi steam oven, so the meat tenderizes and reaches that wonderful fall off the bone texture. The ribs can also be prepared in the traditional manner, covered with foil or a tight fitting lid in the Convection oven. The ribs can then be finished on the grill or under the broiler in the Convection oven. INGREDIENTS Spareribs and Marinade 2 lbs. pork spareribs , cut in half lengthwise or whole 1 tsp Kosher salt 2 tsp sugar 2 tbsp Chinese rice wine or Sherry 2 tbsp ginger, grated Glaze 6 cloves garlic, minced 3 tbsp plum sauce 3 tbsp rice vinegar 1 tsp soy sauce ¼ cup water Garnish 2 green onions, sliced thin 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds PREPARATION Cut the ribs apart between the bones. Place ribs in a large resealable plastic bag with the salt, sugar, wine, ginger and massage the marinade into the ribs. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight. When ready to cook, place the ribs in a glass casserole or the solid Steam oven pan. Steam Oven Method: Heat the oven to 280 degrees in the Steam mode and cook the ribs uncovered for 1 ½ - 2 hours until the meat is beginning to fall off the bone. Convection Oven Method: Heat the oven to 300 degrees in the Convection mode. Place the ribs in an oven-proof casserole dish, add ½ cup of water and cover the dish tightly with foil. Cook for 1 ½ - 2 hours until the meat is beginning to fall off the bone. In a small bowl whisk all the ingredients for the glaze, set aside. Once the ribs are cooked and almost falling off the bone, brush the ribs with the glaze all over. Heat the Convection oven in the Broil mode High or 485 degrees. Place the ribs on a foil lined rimmed baking sheet and broil for approximately 5 minutes on each side. Transfer to a serving platter and garnish with green onions and sesame seeds. Notes: remember when using the Broil mode your oven will come to temperature very quickly. Make sure an oven rack is in a suitable position for broiling before heating the oven and always broil with the oven door closed.

- Lobster Mac' n Cheese
While there are many recipes for Lobster Mac' n cheese, this one focuses on providing options for cooking the lobster and tips for baking the casserole in a steam oven. Anchor 1 YOUR RECIPE FOR STEAM COOKING Lobster Mac' n Cheese Steam Baking Mode Golden, crispy Steam Oven Mac 'n Cheese with fresh asparagus, blending creamy comfort and healthy greens. A steam oven is ideal for cooking lobster to perfection and baking casseroles. While there are many recipes for Lobster Mac' n cheese, this one focuses on providing options for cooking the lobster and tips for baking the casserole in a steam oven. Lobster tails can be steamed at a low temperature or roasted at a higher temperature with a combination of convection and steam. Steamed lobster tails have a mild delicate flavor while roasting the lobster tails at a higher temperature brings out more flavor in the meat. For best results when steaming lobster tails, place them in a solid pan with a little water, a splash of white wine and some lemon slices. There are a few steps to making this dish. First the lobster, pasta and cheese sauce must all be cooked then combined in a casserole dish to bake. Since everything is already cooked the casserole really only needs to be heated through. When baking a casserole in the steam oven there is no need to cover the casserole as the combination of convection and steam prevents the food from drying out. Also, since steam ovens have a smaller capacity than larger wall ovens the heating is much faster. Of course if you prepare the casserole a day in advance it’s best to let it sit outside of the refrigerator for an hour before baking to avoid having to leave it in the oven for too long. If you do prepare the casserole in advance, only add the topping mixture prior to baking. Recipe ingredients INGREDIENTS 3 - 4 lobster tails ¼ tsp Old Bay seasoning ½ tsp garlic herb seasoning 2 tbsp butter, softened ½ lb Cavatappi pasta For the Cheese Sauce 3 tbsp all-purpose flour 4 tbsp butter 3 cups half and half ½ tsp dry mustard powder 1 cup shredded, sharp Cheddar cheese 1 cup shredded, Gruyere or Mozzarella cheese ½ cup shredded Parmesan cheese For the Topping ½ cup breadcrumbs 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese 2 tbsp melted butter 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley 2 cloves garlic, minced PREPARATION To prepare the lobster tails, cut down the center of the shell in a straight line, turn the tail over and press in between each vertebrae with your thumbs to release the meat. Turn the tail over, gently lift the lobster out of the shell using your fingers to separate the meat as needed. Push the shell together and drape the meat over the shell. Combine the butter with the seasoning and spread over the lobster meat. To steam/poach the lobster , heat the steam oven in the Steam mode to 212 F/100 C. Place the lobster tails in a small solid pan with ½ cup of water and several lemon slices. When the oven comes to temperature, slide the pan into the oven and cook for 4 minutes. The poaching liquid can be added to the sauce for added flavor. OR To steam roast the lobster , heat the oven in the combination convection steam mode to 375 F/ 190 C. Place the lobster tails on a small rimmed baking sheet and bake for approx 4 minutes until the shell turns orange and the lobster meat is firm. Once the lobster is cooked and cooled, remove it from the shell and cut into bite sized pieces. Heat the water to cook the pasta and when it comes to a boil cook as directed. To make the sauce, heat a medium sized heavy saucepan over moderate heat. Add the butter and when melted stir in the flour and cook for 3 - 4 minutes taking care not to let it brown. Add the milk and bring to a gentle simmer, stirring frequently until the sauce thickens. Once the sauce has thickened, remove it from the heat and fold in the three cheeses, stirring well to combine. Taste the sauce and add salt and freshly ground pepper to your taste. To bake the casserole, heat the steam oven in the combination convection steam mode to 350 F/176 C. Lightly butter or oil an ovenproof baking dish, approximately 8 x 11”/22 x 28cm Combine the cooked pasta, lobster and sauce and spread it into the baking dish. Combine the breadcrumbs, melted butter, Parmesan, garlic and parsley and spread over the top of the casserole. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until heated through.

- Easy Steamed Potato Salad with Eggs and Asparagus
Steaming potatoes yields the best flavor and texture for salad. If you steam one thing you can steam the asparagus and eggs at the same time. Anchor 1 YOUR RECIPE FOR STEAM COOKING Easy Steamed Potato Salad with Eggs and Asparagus Steam mode Steamed potato salad with eggs and fresh herbs, highlighting the perfect texture and flavor achieved through steam oven cooking. Preparing delicious salads at home with a steam oven is so easy: select the Steam mode, organize the containers you need to cook with and plan the timing. While the food is steaming, you can turn your attention to preparing the other ingredients for the salad and making the dressing. In this recipe, I have combined steamed asparagus with the potato salad. However, you can serve the asparagus on its own or combine it with another salad if that is your preference. For optimum flavor potatoes are best dressed while they are still slightly warm. I find leaving them spread out in the perforated pan resting on a trivet for airflow is a good way to cool them or spread them onto a rimmed baking pan. Once the salad has been assembled it can be refrigerated until ready to eat. Be sure to never add a mayonnaise dressing to potatoes that haven’t properly cooled. INGREDIENTS 2lbs red or golden potatoes, washed and cut into bite-size pieces 2 large eggs ½ bunch asparagus, ends trimmed, spears chopped into ½” pieces Salad ingredients. Dressing ¾ cup avocado mayonnaise 2 tbsp Dijon mustard ¼ cup finely chopped red onion or shallot Dressing ingredients. PREPARATION Heat the steam oven in the Steam mode to 212 F. Place the prepared potatoes in the perforated pan and add the eggs to a corner of the pan. When the oven comes to temperature, slide the pan into the oven and set the timer for 20 minutes. If cooking the asparagus, add them to the oven for the final 5 - 6 minutes of cooking time. They are best slightly al dente in a salad. When the timer elapses, remove the pan from the oven and put it aside to cool the potatoes. Place the eggs in a bowl of cold water to cool down for a few minutes, then peel and slice. Combine the cooled potatoes, onion, mayonnaise, and mustard in a large bowl and combine gently, taking care not to smash the potatoes. Season with salt and freshly ground pepper and fold in the chopped asparagus and eggs. If you don't eat the salad right away, it can be covered and refrigerated until needed.

- Steam Oven Caramel Bread Pudding Delight
Traditionally, bread pudding is baked in a water bath. However, if you have a steam oven, the process is even simpler: you only need to place the baking dish on an oven rack. Anchor 1 YOUR RECIPE FOR STEAM COOKING Steam Oven Caramel Bread Pudding Delight Steam Mode Rich and indulgent, this beautifully caramelized bread pudding, a perfect blend of comfort and flavor for dessert lovers. This classic dessert is especially popular with children when made in softer, sweeter versions. It can be served either cold or warm, often accompanied by ice cream. Its comforting taste appeals to both kids and adults. Traditionally, this dessert is baked in a water bath. If you have a steam oven, the process is even simpler—just place the baking dish on an oven rack. You can prepare the mixture in just a few minutes, then steam it for 45 to 55 minutes. INGREDIENTS 6oz (170 grams) bread (baguette or brioche) 4 eggs at room temperature 2 cups of whole milk (473 ml) 1 can of condensed milk 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract ⅓ cup of raisins (65 grams) For the caramel ½ cup of white sugar (65 grams) ⅛ cup of water Recipe ingredients. PREPARATION You will need either a 9-inch Bundt pan or a 5-by-9.5-inch baking pan. First, prepare the caramel using the “wet” method. In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, heat the sugar over medium-low heat until it starts to dissolve and form clumps. Stir gently and watch closely to avoid burning. When the sugar begins to turn golden, add 1 or more teaspoons of water and gently swirl the pan to ensure even browning. Pour the hot caramel into the baking mold and set it aside to cool. Before steaming, preheat the steam oven to 210°F (99 °C). Cut the bread into 1/2-inch cubes and place them in a bowl. In another bowl, combine the eggs, condensed milk, whole milk, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well blended. Pour this mixture over the bread cubes and stir to combine. Let the mixture rest for at least 30 minutes to allow the bread to soak. Just before steaming, add the raisins and mix again. Pour the mixture into the prepared mold and place it in the steam oven. Steam for about 50 minutes at 210°F (99°C). To check for doneness, insert a metal or wooden skewer into the center of the dessert. If it comes out clean, the dessert is ready. Serves 10 portions.

- Potato Frittata with Linguica and Kale
Steam oven potato frittata with kale and linguica. This method not only simplifies the preparation process but also enhances the flavor of the potatoes, which retain their natural taste when steamed. Anchor 1 YOUR RECIPE FOR STEAM COOKING Potato Frittata with Linguica and Kale Convection Steam Bake Sliced steam oven potato frittata with kale and linguica, freshly baked in a cast iron pan, ready to be served. Not only do foods cooked in a steam oven have wonderful flavor and texture, but using the features in your steam oven can simplify food preparation. Frittatas are not only a perfect choice for a light, nourishing meal, but they also offer a delightful taste when served warm or at room temperature. In this recipe, we leverage the convenience of a steam oven in the Steam mode to par-cook the potatoes and blanch the kale. This method not only simplifies the preparation process but also enhances the flavor of the potatoes, which retain their natural taste when steamed. Moreover, blanching vegetables in steam is a breeze compared to the hassle of dealing with pans of boiling water. The Portuguese Linguica sausage, seasoned with smoked paprika, adds a unique flavor that pairs exceptionally well with the potatoes and kale. However, feel free to use any sausage of your preference. INGREDIENTS 3 medium-sized yellow potatoes, diced into 1/2" cubes 2 cups kale, coarse stems removed, sliced into thin ribbons 2 tbsp olive oil 1 shallot, sliced 3 cloves garlic, sliced 1/4 tsp dried oregano 1/2 Linguica sausage (mild or hot) cut in half lengthwise and chopped into thin slices 10 eggs, beaten 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese PREPARATION Heat the oven in the Steam mode to 212 F. Place the prepped potatoes in the perforated pan and steam for 15 minutes until just tender. Set the potatoes aside to cool, add the kale to the perforated pan, and blanch for 1 minute. Remove the kale from the oven and rinse under cold water. Squeeze the moisture from the kale and pat it dry. Change the oven mode to the Combination Convection Steam Mode 325 F. If your oven has variable humidity options, choose 30%. Next, it's time to prepare the filling. Heat a medium-sized oven-proof skillet over moderate heat. Add the oil, shallots, and garlic, and cook gently for a minute or two until softened. Then, add the potatoes and oregano, stirring well to coat them with the oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook the potatoes for a few minutes, then stir in the linguica and kale. Be careful not to let the shallots or garlic burn. Cook for three to four minutes, ensuring the flavors are well combined. Once the pan is removed from the heat, the beaten eggs are added, and the frittata is topped with the shredded cheese. This mixture is then placed in the oven to bake for 25 - 30 minutes until it sets into a mouthwatering frittata. The anticipation of the delicious outcome is sure to make your taste buds tingle. Serves 4 If you prefer not to bake the frittata in a skillet, don't worry. The recipe offers flexibility, allowing you to bake it in an oven-safe casserole or pie dish. This adaptability ensures that you can enjoy the frittata in a way that suits your cooking style and equipment. Potato Frittata with Kale and Linguica .pdf Download PDF • 60KB WANT TO LEARN MORE?

INGREDIENTS 1 lb calamari tubes, frozen or defrosted 3 cloves garlic, minced 1 Eureka lemon, zested and juiced (reserve juice for dressing) ½ cup Italian parsley, finely chopped 1 tbsp capers, rinsed Pinch-dried red chili flakes 1 tbsp fruity olive oil 2 lbs small whole golden potatoes, scrubbed 1 small shallot, thinly sliced Dressing ¼ cup fruity olive oil 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice Sea Salt and freshly ground pepper PREPARATION If the calamari needs defrosting, set the Steam oven to the Defrost mode, place the calamari in the perforated pan, and slide it into the oven with the solid pan underneath it to catch the liquid. Pat the calamari dry and place the tubes in a glass container. Combine the garlic, lemon zest, parsley, capers, chili flakes, and olive oil, and pour the mixture over the calamari. Marinate for 30 minutes. Select the Steam mode, place the whole potatoes in the perforated pan, and steam them for 20 -30 minutes until tender. Set the potatoes aside for approximately 15 minutes or until cool enough to handle. When cooled, slice the potatoes into ¼” thick slices and gently toss them in a bowl with the dressing, taking care not to smash them. To cook the calamari, arrange the oven racks so the top rack is close to the top heating element and heat the convection oven in the Broil mode on Hi or to 500 degrees. Arrange the calamari on a shallow-rimmed baking pan and grill for 3 - 4 minutes or until the tubes develop a slight char. You can also grill the calamari on an outdoor grill. Once cooked, slice the calamari into ¼” rings and combine with the potato salad. Add a generous pinch of sea salt and freshly ground pepper, and if you prefer a more acidic dressing, add half a teaspoon of red wine vinegar.

- Slow Roasted Turkey Pieces
Low temperature roasting is not braising. This method is only for lean tender cuts of meat such as turkey pieces . Set the oven to 160 - 200°F and a finish with 400 - 425°F for browning Anchor 1 YOUR RECIPE FOR STEAM COOKING Slow Roasted Turkey Pieces Low Temperature Roasting Slow-cooked turkey legs roasted to perfection in a steam oven. Low temperature roasting is not to be confused with braising. This method is only for lean tender cuts of meat. You can use a temperature between the range of 160 - 200°F and a finishing temperature of 400 - 425°F for a crisp golden brown finish. Roasting turkey pieces at a low temperature and finishing the cooking with a blast of high heat is a simple method for cooking turkey that yields great results. This is the perfect solution for people who don’t want to deal with cooking a large turkey or are only feeding a small number of people. Low temperature roasting is not to be confused with braising. This method is only for lean tender cuts of meat. You can use a temperature between the range of 160 - 200°F and a finishing temperature of 400 - 425°F for a crisp golden brown finish. The turkey can be cooked in a combi steam oven using a combination of low humidity and the noted temperature range or in a convection oven using the Convection Mode and the noted temperature range. INGREDIENTS 2 bone in skin on turkey thighs 2 turkey drumsticks 1 bone-in turkey breast ¼ cup vegetable oil 1 tbsp Kosher salt ½ tsp freshly ground black pepper 1 tbsp preferred seasoning (some good options, mixed Italian Seasoning or Old Bay seasoning or your preferred BBQ seasoning) PREPARATION Allow approximately 40 - 60 minutes for the initial cooking and 12 minutes for the final browning. The final cooking can also be done in the oven or on the outdoor grill. Some things to consider when cooking turkey in this method: If you want to serve gravy with your turkey, I suggest purchasing some extra turkey legs to make stock and use the juices from the pan for extra flavor. Because the turkey is cooking at such a low temperature oven side dishes cannot be cooked at the same time so planning is key. Mix the seasonings in a small container and rub into the turkey pieces, cover and refrigerate overnight or a day or two in advance of cooking. Directions Heat the oven to 200℉, place the turkey pieces on a shallow rimmed baking sheet. If your oven has a meat probe slide the needle into the thickest part of the breast or thigh, taking care not to touch bone or let the tip of the needle touch the pan. Place the tray in the oven and program the probe to reach an internal temperature of 160℉. If your oven doesn’t have a meat probe, set the timer for 40 minutes and test the turkey in the thickest part of the breast or thigh with an instant read thermometer. Once the internal temperature has reached 160℉ continue to the next step. When the desired internal temperature has been reached, remove the pan from the oven and disconnect the meat probe. Pour off any accumulated juices to use for stock or to add to gravy and increase the oven temperature to 400°F. When the oven reaches temperature return the tray to the oven and set the timer for 12 minutes. The pieces should be golden brown and perfectly cooked at this time but additional time can be added if needed. Low Temperature Roast Turkey .pdf Download PDF • 241KB WANT TO LEARN MORE?

- Key Lime Cheesecake
Recipes for cheesecake usually indicate that it should be baked in a water bath; however, if you bake the cheesecake in a Steam Oven you can dispense with the water bath all together Anchor 1 YOUR RECIPE FOR STEAM COOKING Key Lime Cheesecake Steam-Baking Cheesecake perfection from the steam oven, no water bath required. Recipes for cheesecake usually indicate that it should be baked in a water bath; however, if you bake the cheesecake in a Combi Steam Oven you can dispense with the water bath all together. Select the Combination Convection Steam Mode to bake the cheesecake but the important thing to remember is to reduce the recipe temperature by 25 degrees, maybe even 30 degrees if your oven tends to run hot. My oven has the option to choose a level of humidity, and I choose 60% with excellent results. This cheesecake comes together very quickly and only takes 50 - 60 minute to cook in the Combi Steam Oven; however, you do need to factor in 8 - 10 hours of chilling so it sets properly. The hardest part of this recipe was juicing the little Key Limes, but I did find a useful tip online that recommended using a garlic press for the really small ones and that worked very well. Of course regular limes can be substituted and are just as delicious. When planning to make this cheesecake be sure to get the butter, cream cheese and eggs out early so they are at room temperature. INGREDIENTS Crust 2 - cups crushed Graham cracker (about 15 full sheets) 1 - stick unsalted butter, melted 3 - Tbsps. granulated sugar Filling 1 - cup granulated sugar 1 - Tbsp cornstarch 3 - 8oz packages cream cheese, at room temperature 4 - large room temperature eggs ⅔ - cup mascarpone cheese ⅓ - cup heavy cream ⅓ - cup fresh lime juice, 1 - tsp vanilla extract PREPARATION Heat the oven to 325 Degrees Convection (with no steam). Line the outside of a 9” springform pan with a sheet of heavy duty aluminum foil. Stir the crushed graham crackers and sugar together in a mixing bowl, then add the melted butter and stir to combine. Add the prepared crumbs to the springform pan and press evenly into the bottom and about halfway up the sides. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes and set aside to cool. Change the oven Mode to Combination Convection Steam 300 degrees. Whisk together the sugar and cornstarch in a small mixing bowl until well combined. Pour the sugar mixture over the cream cheese and beat in a large bowl until smooth, then mix in the eggs in one at a time. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl and add the Mascarpone and cream and mix till combined. Stir in the lime juice and vanilla. Pour into the prepared crust and bake for 50 - 60 minutes, until set but still a little soft. Set aside to cool for one hour before chilling for 8 - 10 hours. This cheesecake will serve 12 - 14 people and is delicious with some whipped cream piped and fresh raspberries or strawberries. Key Lime Cheesecake .pdf Download PDF • 111KB WANT TO LEARN MORE?
