ORANGE CAKE, ANCONA STYLE (TORTA DI ARANCE ALL'ANCONETANA)
Evelyn and I are among those who have experienced the dangers of consuming ouzo straight. This cake, from the venerable Marcella Hazan, is a way to have your ouzo and still maintain your dignity. It is not a particularly sweet cake, but very flavorful--ideal for brunch or afternoon tea.

Steps:
- Note: If you are in southern Europe and have access to Italian or Spanish blood oranges, use those; If not, California blood oranges are not a good substitute; You will have to forgo the color for the flavor of a tangelo or temple orange.
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Thickly butter a tube pan and dust with flour.
- Note: You can also use a bundt pan, but make sure it is a heavy one--as heavy as your tube pan.
- Put flour, eggs, grated ornage peel, 4 tablespoons softened butter, sugar and ouzo in a food processor and process until all ingredients are incorporated.
- Add milk and baking powder and process again to incorporate.
- Pour mixture into prepared pan and place in upper level of pre-heated oven.
- Bake for at least 45 minutes, until top of cake becomes colored a rich gold.
- Place pan over a wine bottle or other receptacle to cool slightly.
- Loosen the edges of the cake with a sharp knife.
- Invert onto a plate.
- While cake is still warm, poke many holes into it, using a chopstick or similar implement.
- Pour the sweetened orange juice into the holes, filling them to the brim.
- Within an hour, the cake will have absorbed the juice.
- Serve at room temperature.
- Note: The cake will keep for up to a week in the refrigerator, fully covered by plastic wrap.

ORANGE CAKE, ANCONA-STYLE
Orange cake is a terrific dessert to serve after the rich, meaty stews of winter: boeuf bourguignon, short ribs, lamb tagine. The method that Marcella Hazan uses here - poking holes into the cake and letting orange syrup seep in - has a similar effect to brining: what would otherwise be a dry cake becomes flavorful, fragrant, and juicy. And it's even better than brining, because it always works, takes no time, and also makes the cake last longer.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 350.
- Put the flour, eggs, orange peel, 4 tablespoons softened butter, sugar and ouzo in a food processor, and run until all the ingredients are evenly amalgamated.
- Add the milk and baking powder, and process again to incorporate into the mixture.
- Thickly smear a tube pan with butter, and dust with flour. Put the cake mixture in the pan (it won't fill it up all the way), and place the pan in the preheated oven. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, until the top of the cake becomes a rich gold color.
- When the cake is done, place the bottom of the pan over a tumbler or tall mug, using pot holders, and push down to raise the loose bottom. Take the tube with the cake out of the hoop, work the cake loose from the bottom with a knife and lift it away from the tube. Place it on a plate with a slightly raised rim.
- While the cake is still warm, poke many holes in it using a chopstick or any similar narrow tool. Into each of the holes, slowly pour some of the orange juice. At first the hole fills to the brim with juice, but this will subsequently - in about an hour - be absorbed by the cake. Serve at room temperature, with more orange juice drizzled over each slice.
BEAT AND BAKE ORANGE CAKE
This quick orange cake is delicious without the frosting. I sometimes just sprinkle icing sugar on the top. This recipe can be used to make two 8-inch cake layers or a 9x5-inch loaf. If making a loaf cake, bake for 60 minutes.

ORANGE CAKE
A delightful orange frosting is the secret to this cake from Kathleen Gingras of Thorold, Ontario. "It is great with a scoop of ice cream," she suggests.
