Polish beef tripe soup in a rich, paprika-warmed broth, thickened with a light butter-and-flour roux and lifted with ginger, nutmeg and marjoram.
Beef shoulder braised slowly with a great deal of onion and sweet paprika, thickened at the end into a sauce heavy enough to coat a spoon. Ninety minutes of doing nothing, and most of the flavour is made in the first fifteen.
Pears poached in vanilla syrup, covered in hot chocolate sauce as they are served. The pears can be poached the day before and lose nothing; the sauce is made at the last minute.
