Sherry And Egg Recipes

CREAMY SEAFOOD NEWBURG

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Remove the shells from the shrimp. With a sharp knife, make a shallow cut down the back of a shrimp and pull the dark vein out . If the vein doesn't come out easily, scrape it out with the tip of the knife. The vein is the digestive system of the shrimp, so it should be removed. Repeat with the remaining shrimp.
• Rinse well, chop large shrimp coarsely. Leave small to medium shrimp whole, if desired. Transfer the shrimp to a large bowl.
• To the bowl with the shrimp, add the lobster, scallops, or crabmeat along with the sherry, lemon juice, and nutmeg.
• Cover the bowl and refrigerate for about 45 minutes to 1 hour.
• Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat.
• Add the flour and continue cooking for about 3 minutes while stirring constantly.
• Gradually whisk in about 1/4 cup of the half-and-half. Gradually add the remaining half-and-half, whisking constantly. Add the salt and continue cooking until bubbling and thickened.
• In a bowl, whisk the heavy cream with the egg yolk.
• Add to the thickened sauce while whisking constantly.
• Stir in the cheese and continue cooking until the cheese has melted.
• Add the seafood to the sauce and cook for about 10 minutes, or until the seafood is thoroughly cooked.
