Creamy Trout Mousse

2010-08-09T00:45:00.001-07:00

2 trouts (6 oz ea. cleaned) *
1 whole egg
1 egg white
1/4 pint olive or sunflower oil
5 tablespoon creamy yoghurt
1 teaspoon dijon mustard
1 1/4 teaspoon gelatine powder (or more)
1 fresh parsley & tarragon
1/2 cucumber
1 caster sugar
1 tarragon vinegar
*Note: In lieu of fresh trout, 1/2 lb cooked and flaked fish may be used.
Serves 6 as an appetizer, or 3 as a light lunch.
If using fresh trout, poach them in the oven at 350 F (180 C) gas mark 4
for 30 minutes, then cool, skin, bone and flake - there should be about 8
ounces of cooked flesh.
Separate the egg and use the yolk to make mayonnaise: season it with salt
and pepper, gradually beat in the oil, then 1 teaspoon or so of vinegar to
thin and flavour the sauce.
Put the prepared fish into a food processor. Add the mustard, yoghurt and
1 heaped teaspoon each fresh chopped tarragon and parsley, and whizz to a
perfectly smooth puree. Soak the gelatine (more may be necessary in hot
weather) in 3 tablespoons cold water, let it soften and swell, then
dissolve over low heat. Cool for a minute or two before adding the liquid
gelatine to the fish puree: pour it on in a thin stream while the machine
is running. Carefully and gradually beat the fish puree into the
mayonnaise. Quickly whisk the egg whites to snowy peaks and fold them
intothe fish puree. Taste and adjust the seasoning. Divide the mixture
between 6 ramekins or 3 small souffle dishes. Cover and chill for 2-3
hours until set to a soft cream.
Seed the cucumber but do not peel. Chop it finely, sprinkle it with
1/4 teaspoon each salt and caster sugar and 1/2 teaspoon tarragon
vinegar, and set aside for a couple of hours to draw out some of the
cucumber juices. Drain and pat dry. Top each mousse immediately before
serving with a smallspoonful of the cucumber - a good crunchy contrast to
the soft textured mousse - and garnish with a tarragon leaf. Oatcakes
that have been gently warmed in the oven go well with this dish.

1 1/2 cup water
1 red wine vinegar
3 3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 cup sweet green peppers
1/3 cup hot peppers
Crab apple pectin gives a good set to this hot pepper jelly. Mix and
match hot peppers for colour and degree of heat. Banana peppers range
from piquant to medium-hot. Cherry peppers and long, skinny green
chili peppers are fiery. (Original recipe indicated 1 cup of hot
peppers - recommend 1/3 cup if using fiery variety).
When chopping hot peppers, wear gloves and don't touch your face or
eyes.
In Dutch oven, combine apples with water. Cover and bring slowly to
simmer; cook until apples are very soft. Pour into colander lined
with square of dampened muslin and placed over deep bowl. Weight down
with saucer and heavy can. Let stand until dripping stops. Discard
pulp.
Pour collected juice into liquid measure; add enough vinegar to make 3
cups. Combine in saucepan with sugar. Bring to boil, stirring. Add
peppers; boil briskly for 8-10 minutes or until set (*). Stir for 7
minutes to prevent floating peppers.
Pour jelly into hot, sterilized 8-oz sterilized preserving jars. Seal
with two-piece canning lids. Let cool and refrigerate. For long-term
unrefrigerated storage, process in boiling-water bath for 5 minutes
immediately after sealing jars.
Makes six 8-oz jars.
(*) to test for set: remove pan from heat, dip cold metal spoon into
liquid and hold well above steam. Turn spoon sideways and let liquid
run off; when it forms two drops that run together and drip from edge
of spoon, jelling point is reached.

Crab Rice

2010-08-09T00:03:00.001-07:00

1 stephen ceideburg
2 green onions, chopped
1 piece fresh ginger, 2-3 cm, grated
4 tablespoon dry sherry
3 tablespoon light soy sauce
3 blue crabs
400 gm glutinous rice
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon oil
1 teaspoon sugar
The Chinese have comfort food, too, and this dish qualifies. You will
need a large steamer; if you don't yet have one, they can be bought
cheaply in large Chinese or Vietnamese food stores where you can also
pick up the glutinous rice. The dish takes considerably longer to
cook than the previous recipes but little more of the cook's time. By
the time the rice is cooked, it is saturated with crab flavour.
Finely chop 2 green (spring) onions and grate 2-3 cms of fresh ginger.
Combine them with 4 tablespoons dry sherry and 3 tablespoons light soy
sauce. Prepare three green blue swimmers crabs. Chop two of them into
several pieces with a large knife or cleaver and crack the hardest
pieces of the shell with a hammer. Crack the third crab thoroughly
all over but do not chop up. Pour the sherry-soy sauce mixture over
the crabs and leave to marinate for an hour. Wash 400 grams glutinous
rice in several changes of water until the water runs clear.
Put the rice into a saucepan and pour over it 1.5 L water. Bring to
the boil and boil for 5 minutes. Drain.
In the bottom of a heatproof dish at least 12 cm deep and of a size
to fit into your steamer, pack in the chopped crab pieces, reserving
the marinade. Pour the rice over the top and pack it down. Press the
intact crab into the top of the rice. To the marinade, add a further
tablespoon soy sauce and a tablespoon oil, teaspoon salt and 1
teaspoon sugar. Pour over the crabs and rice.
Put the dish in the steamer over boiling water and steam for 35-40
minutes. Serve. Diners deal first with the top crab, now half buried
in rice, then fish around, for the rest of the crab pieces in rice.
