Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F; position the rack in the middle of the oven.
- In a large pot, heat the oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350 degrees F on a deep-frying thermometer. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt and pepper. Set aside. In a separate large bowl, stir together the ricotta, mozzarella, Parmigiano-Reggiano, milk and eggs until combined. Add the flour mixture to the cheese mixture and mix until a thick and sticky batter forms. Cover and set aside at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- Working in batches, with two large spoons, scoop approximately 2 tablespoons of the batter and carefully slide it into the hot oil. Don't overcrowd the pot. Cook the fritters until deep golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes, turning them in the oil from time to time. (To get nice, smooth fritters, periodically dip the spoons in the hot oil; it will allow you to get a "clean" scoop.) If the oil starts to gurgle and sputter, and the temperature has gone way up, you may need to reduce the heat to medium or even medium-low and gently bring it back up to 350 degrees F as needed.
- Use a spider to remove the fritters from the oil and transfer to the prepared pan. Place the fritters in the oven to keep warm while you repeat with the remaining batter. Serve immediately, with Spicy Tomato Sauce.
- In a large. Wide saucepan, heat the oil over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onions and garlic and cook, stirring, until the onions are translucent, light golden, and beginning to brown, about 10 minutes. Add the tomatoes, basil, red pepper flakes, pepper, and salt to taste. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, uncovered, until the sauce has thickened, 35 to 45 minutes.
- Use immediately or transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate or freeze until ready to use. The sauce will keep for up to 1 week in the refrigerator or up to 2 months in the freezer.
- In a medium nonreactive saucepan, combine the milk, cream, and salt and heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring from time to time to keep it from scorching on the bottom, until it registers 190 degrees F on a candy thermometer. Remove from the heat, add the lemon juice, and gently stir the mixture a couple of times. Let sit, undisturbed, for 5 minutes. The mixture will look curdled, with curds distinctly separating from the whey.
- Meanwhile, line a colander with a few layers of cheesecloth and place it over a large bowl. Gently pour the curds and whey into the colander and let drain for at least 1 hour. After 1 hour, the ricotta will be soft and spreadable; after 2 hours, it will be somewhat firm but still spreadable. The ricotta will firm up further in the refrigerator. Discard the whey or save it for another use. Serve right away or transfer it to an airtight container and refrigerate until ready to use. The fresh ricotta will keep for up to 4 days.

Steps:
- Put an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F. Sprinkle a heavy baking sheet (without sides) with cornmeal. Set aside.
- In a food processor, blend the ricotta, garlic, salt, and pepper until smooth. Add the smoked mozzarella and arugula. Pulse until just combined but still chunky. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the dough into a 14-inch diameter circle, about 1/4 to 1/16-inch thick. Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Spread the ricotta mixture on top leaving a 1-inch border. Arrange the tomato slices on top. Drizzle with olive oil and bake until the crust is golden, about 15 to 16 minutes. Remove from the oven, cut into wedges and serve.

Steps:
- In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat to 350 degrees F.
- Place 1 sheet of phyllo on a dry work surface. Place one slice of cheese about 5 inches from the top of the narrow end of the sheet. Fold the top of the narrow end over the cheese, leaving 1 inch between the fold and the cheese. Next fold over 1 of the long sides then the other, again leaving 1-inch between the folds and the cheese. Then fold the cheese over, again leaving 1-inch between the fold and the cheese. Continue folding to make a package about 3 1/2 by 4-inches. Continue with the remaining pieces of cheese and phyllo.
- Fry the phyllo and cheese packages, 2 or 3 at a time, in the oil until golden, about 2 minutes per side. Drain on a baking sheet lined with paper towels.
- Meanwhile, heat the figs and honey in a small saucepan over low heat until the honey is warm. Set aside until the cheese packages have finished frying.
- To serve, place 1 cheese package on a plate. Spoon some figs and drizzle some honey over the top of each cheese package. Sprinkle with black sesame seeds and serve immediately.

Steps:
- Cook the asparagus in a large pot of boiling salted water until crisp tender, about 2 to 3 minutes. With a spider or slotted spoon, remove asparagus from boiling water to a bowl of ice water to cool and stop the cooking. When cool, strain, cut asparagus into 1-inch pieces, and set aside.
- Return the water in the pot to a boil, adding additional water, if necessary. Add the pasta and cook until al dente, tender but still firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain the pasta, reserving 1 cup of the cooking liquid.
- Heat the oil in a heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and saute until fragrant, about 20 seconds. Add asparagus to the skillet. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Add the pasta, and if needed, some of the reserved cooking liquid. Toss to coat. Add the prosciutto, mozzarella, and basil, and toss to combine. Turn off the heat. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and serve.
