SMOKED EEL, SMOKED STURGEON, AND CHOUPIQUE CAVIAR SALAD WITH DILLED BUTTERMILK DRESSING
Choupique caviar is the roe of the Bowfin, a bony, prehistoric, fresh water fish indigenous to South Louisiana. "Choupique" is the Cajun name for the Bowfin, and the fish's naturally black eggs resemble that of the sturgeon, with a distinctive, lively flavor. Should you use this roe in other recipes, be forewarned that Choupique caviar turns red when heated or cooked. If you're feeling extravagant, use Beluga or Sevruga caviar instead of the Choupique. Salmon roe also makes a great substitute.

Steps:
- Preheat a fryer to 360 degrees F.
- Season the flour with Essence and place in a shallow dish. Dredge the eel in the seasoned flour, shaking off any excess.
- Fry the eel until golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate.
- In a large bowl, combine the sturgeon, onions, chives, vinegar, oil, some of the Buttermilk Dill Dressing, salt, and pepper, and toss gently.
- In a small bowl, combine the vinegar, oil, salt, and pepper, and drizzle over the lettuces. Place 1/4 head of lettuce on each of 4 large salad plates. Arrange the sturgeon mixture over the lettuce. Top with the fried eel. Drizzle each serving with 3 tablespoons of the dressing. Place 1 teaspoon of the caviar in the center and serve.
- Combine all ingredients thoroughly and store in an airtight jar or container.
- Recipe from "New New Orleans Cooking", by Emeril Lagasse and Jessie Tirsch. Published by William and Morrow, 1993.
- To make the dressing, combine the egg and dill in the bowl of a food processor and process on high speed for 15 seconds. With the machine running, add the oil in a thin stream and process until it forms an emulsion. Transfer to a bowl and whisk in the buttermilk, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
CORNCAKES WITH CAVIAR
These corncakes are tasty little gems - crisp and pebbly with bits of corn and lacy around the edges. The crème fraîche and caviar are charming if you have them, but don't let a lack of caviar prevent you from making the cakes. You'll be just as happy eating them plain or with dollops of crème fraîche and chives. The cakes' success hinges on their crispness. Keep your pan hot and steady; don't let the cakes steam or they'll turn floppy.

Steps:
- Cut the corn kernels from the cobs, enough to produce 2 cups. Put the kernels in a food processor and add 2 tablespoons milk. Blend until a little of the texture is left. There should be about 1 1/4 cups.
- Put the corn in a mixing bowl and add the remaining milk, the flour, 1/4 cup melted butter and the cornmeal, stirring to blend well.
- Add the eggs, egg yolk, 2 tablespoons of the chopped chives, salt and pepper and blend thoroughly.
- Heat the other 1/4 cup butter, preferably clarified, in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Spoon about 1 1/2 tablespoons of the batter at a time into the skillet without letting the cakes touch. Cook about 1 1/2 minutes until golden brown on the bottom. Turn and cook on the other side until golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve 4 slightly overlapping corncakes on each of 6 salad plates. Add a mound of crème fraîche in the center of the plate. Spoon 1 tablespoon golden caviar on top of the crème fraîche and 1 teaspoon black caviar on top of the golden caviar. Sprinkle with the remaining chopped chives and serve.

Steps:
- For the filling: In a large bowl, combine fresh shrimp, salt, fish sauce, tapioca starch. Set aside. Stir-fry the chives in half of the oil and half of the lard with garlic and water chestnuts until the chives are soft. Place chives on the center of a large piece of cheesecloth, wrap up the cloth, and squeeze the mixture until there is no liquid. Set aside.
- In a small bowl soak the dried shrimp in warm water to cover for about 20 minutes. Drain, discard the liquid, and coarsely chop the shrimp. In a skillet or sauté pan over medium-high heat, warm the canola oil and remaining lard until shimmering. Add the dried shrimp and stir until the shrimp turns brown. Remove and set aside. In the same skillet add the fresh shrimp, pepper and green onions and saute until cooked through, 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and combine shrimp-both fresh and dried-and chives.
- For the dough: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, combine the starches, bread flour, sugar, salt, and oil. Mix on high speed, slowly adding the hot water until a sticky dough forms, about 5 minutes. Turn the dough out onto your work surface and divide into 10 pieces. Using a small rolling pin, roll out the ball into circles about 1/8 inch thick and 4-5 inches in diameter. Holding the dough in your palm, add about 2-3 tablespoons of the filling in the middle of each circle and pinch the ends together. Lightly pat down to flatten the cake. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.
- Set up a steamer and steam the chive cakes until the dough is translucent, about 7-10 minutes.
- Remove the dumplings from the steamer and set aside to cool. Just before serving, coat the bottom of the skillet with oil and pan fry the chive cakes until browned on both sides.
- Serve with both hot Sriracha and soy sauce for dipping.

Cook about 1 1/2 minutes until golden brown on bottom. Turn cakes and cook on other side about a minute, or until golden brown and cooked through.
