Churros con Chocolate

Onions cooked low and slow until deeply caramelized, simmered in beef broth, ladled into crocks, topped with baguette and Gruyère, then broiled until molten. The soup that teaches patience.
Pasta Carbonara
Roman carbonara — eggs, pecorino, guanciale, black pepper. No cream, no shortcuts, and the off-heat technique that keeps the eggs from scrambling.
