No need for a steak knife—the
tender beef, braised with charred
tomato and paprika, falls apart
with the touch of a fork. It sits on
a bed of mashed potatoes with
zucchini and a dollop of fresh
ricotta (page 31).

OXTAIL TORTELLINI
AT ANJU:
“This dish is highly crave-able
with the combination of rich
oxtail meat, umami from the soy
sauce and grano padano cheese,
and a hint of earthiness from the
truffle oil,” says Carmen Cheng.
“I appreciate the work that it
must take to shred oxtail and fold
each small dumpling (page 33).”
