PARMESAN CRISPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Pour a heaping tablespoon of Parmesan onto a silicone or parchment lined baking sheet and lightly pat down. A silicone baking sheet is highly recommended. Repeat with the remaining cheese, spacing the spoonfuls about a 1/2 inch apart.
• Bake for 3 to 5 minutes or until golden and crisp. Cool.

SPRING SALAD IN PARMESAN CUPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with silicone baking mats or lightly oiled parchment paper. Invert 4 small ramekins onto a cutting board; set aside.
• Toss the cheese and flour in a bowl, then make 4 mounds on each of the prepared baking sheets (about 2 tablespoons cheese per mound). Spread into 5-inch rounds. Working with one pan at a time, bake until the cheese is golden, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool slightly, 1 minute. Using a thin metal spatula, remove the cheese rounds and drape over the inverted ramekins. Let cool completely, then remove to a platter.
• Meanwhile, bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Fill a medium bowl with ice water. Cook the fava beans in the boiling water until tender, 3 to 5 minutes, adding the snap peas during the last minute of cooking. Transfer the favas and peas to the ice water with a slotted spoon; drain well. Remove the papery shells from the favas. Pat the snap peas dry and cut in half.
• Whisk the lemon juice, vinegar, mustard, honey, lemon zest, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl; whisk in the olive oil until smooth. Add the favas, snap peas, lettuce, radishes, chives and tarragon; toss. Season with salt and pepper. Divide among the parmesan cups.

• Drape cheese over the "molds" of the pan and press down with a second inverted mini muffin tin.

Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until golden and bubbly. Working quickly, use a thin spatula to transfer the Parmesan Frico to a muffin tin. Gently place a small drinking glass on top of the Parmesan Frico to mold it into the shape 1 of the muffin cups. Let cool until firm, about 5 minutes. Continue with the remaining Parmesan cheese.

STRAWBERRY-ARUGULA SALAD IN CRISPY PARMESAN CUPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with a silicone mat. Turn a muffin tin upside down and coat the bottoms with nonstick cooking spray. Form 3 (1/3-cup) mounds of Parmesan cheese on the silicone mat and pat out each to a 5-inch circle. Bake until the cheese melts and is browned and bubbly, 5 to 6 minutes. Working with one circle at a time, quickly lift each round of cheese to the muffin tin, gently pressing the edges to create a dome. Repeat the process with the remaining cheese. Set aside to cool.
• Whisk together the honey, vinegar, shallot and garlic in a small bowl. Gradually add the olive oil and whisk until combined. Season with salt and pepper.
• Toss together the arugula, strawberries, parsley, green onions and pecans in a large bowl. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss to coat. To serve, place the Parmesan cups onto serving plates and divide the salad evenly among them.
