BRAISED SPRING LEGUMES
_Scaffata_ This is a wonderful Roman spring dish that can be made when peas and favas in their shells are young and sweet. The name comes from the word _scaffare_ - "to shell" in Roman dialect. It is especially good when served with roasted spring lamb or goat. The outermost, less tender leaves of a head of romaine, which you may not want to use in a salad, are perfect for this dish.

Steps:
- In a large, heavy casserole with a tight-fitting lid, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the scallions and onions and cook, stirring, until wilted, about 4 minutes. Add the peas, fava beans, zucchini, and peperoncino and season lightly with salt. Stir well, reduce the heat to low, and cover the casserole tightly. Cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add the romaine and mint, cover the casserole, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are very tender, about 25 minutes more. (The vegetables should give off enough moisture during cooking to prevent sticking or burning. If you find they are sticking, you can add a few tablespoons of water. Make sure the heat is very low and the pot is tightly covered before continuing to cook. It is fine, however, if the vegetables do brown a little.) Season to taste with salt and serve hot.
BRAISED BABY ARTICHOKES WITH FAVA BEANS AND SPRING ONIONS
Fresh baby artichokes are much easier to prepare than larger ones, as they have no fuzzy chokes to remove. Pair with fava beans and green onions for a light spring lunch.

Steps:
- Fill a large bowl with ice water. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add beans, and cook until just tender, about 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, plunge beans into ice water. Drain well. Keep water boiling, and refill bowl with ice water. Repeat with onions. Peel beans and onions.
- Fill a large bowl with water and juice of 1/2 lemon. Remove tough outer leaves of artichokes. Trim tops and stems. Cut in half lengthwise, and transfer to lemon water to prevent discoloration.
- Melt 2 tablespoons butter with the oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add shallot, and cook until soft, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain artichokes, and add to skillet along with onions, stock, wine, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer, and cover with a piece of parchment paper, then with a lid. Reduce heat to maintain a simmer, and cook until artichokes and onions are tender, about 20 minutes.
- Add fava beans, and cook, uncovered, until tender and warmed through, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Swirl in remaining tablespoon butter until melted. Squeeze juice from remaining 1 1/2 lemons over the top. Season with salt and pepper, and serve.

- White Wine–Braised Chicken. Fresh thyme is a perfect complement to light meats, like chicken. Save the heady rosemary for winter's short ribs. View Recipe.
- Butter-Braised Spring Onions with Lots of Chives. When fresh produce is in abundance, we like to use it to our advantage. Use sturdy veggies that won't fall apart, and keep the cooking time short so they don't disintegrate into mush.
- Vinegar-Braised Chicken and Onions. Tiny cipollini or pearl onions add sweetness to the braise, and a one-two punch of balsamic and red wine vinegar rounds it out.
- Braised Lamb Shanks with Fennel and Baby Potatoes. What's "springier" than lamb? We keep this braise light by cooking the shanks in white wine and chicken stock, and adding anise-flavored fennel.
- Braised Chicken with Capers and Parsley. Spring chicken makes another appearance, this time doctored up with fresh parsley. This herb, abundant in spring, adds an earthy brightness when added just before serving.
- Braised Chicken with Artichokes and Fava Beans. Browned for deep flavor (and good looks), then braised for succulent results, this spring chicken has it all.
- Gluten-Free Chicken Meatballs with Braised Lemon and Kale. When you can't eat another raw kale salad, braise it with plenty of fresh lemon. View Recipe.

- Stir 1 tablespoon of the lemon juice into a large bowl of water. Working with 1 artichoke at a time, pull off the dark outer leaves and trim 1/2 inch off the top. Peel the stem.
