Ingredients

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Line 3 buttered baking sheets with parchment paper or foil and trace an 11-inch circle on each sheet of parchment.

    Step 2

    Make the meringues: In a food processor grind fine the hazelnuts with 1/2 cup of the sugar, transfer the mixture to a bowl, and stir in 1/2 cup of the remaining sugar and the salt, stirring and fluffing the mixture until it is combined well. In a large bowl with an electric mixer beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until they have stiff glossy peaks.

Sofrito Bolognese
An ex-boyfriend’s mom—who emigrated from Colombia—made the best meat sauce—she would fry sofrito for the base and simply add cooked ground beef, sazón, and jarred tomato sauce. My version is a bit more bougie—it calls for caramelized tomato paste and white wine—but the result is just as good.
