White Asparagus Risotto With Paneed Veal Recipes

RISOTTO CON RADICCHIO E VINO ROSSO

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil with the butter until hot over medium heat, and then cook the onions with some salt and pepper, stirring, until soft.
• Stir in the rice; it will mix and get coated with the oil and become toasted and translucent.
• Start adding your vegetable broth, 1 ladle at a time, stirring so the rice doesn't stick. When that's absorbed, keeping adding more until you are finished with the broth. Stir in the radicchio and cook 1 minute, and then begin ladling in the wine a little at a time until completely absorbed. The risotto will take about 16 to 18 minutes to cook. Remove from the heat, add your Parmigiano and mix well.

POACHED VEAL EYE ROUND WITH TUNA, ANCHOVIES AND CAPERS SAUCE

Steps:

• Place the stock in an 8-quart saucepan and bring it to a simmer. Adjust the flavor and place the meat inside, making sure that will be completely submerged by the liquid. Place a lid on and cook gently without simmering (poaching is 190 degrees) until the meat reaches 110 degrees internal temperature. At that point turn the heat off and let the meat cool inside its own liquid. The carry over cooking should leave the meat medium and pink. (If you prefer it well done cook it longer).
• Prepare the mayonnaise either by hand or in a food processor. Stir the egg yolks with salt, some lemon juice and add the oil very carefully. Adjust the flavor. Puree the tuna, anchovies and capers in a blender adjusting the consistency with some white wine, until smooth. In a bowl incorporate the tuna puree, the mayonnaise, the heavy cream, adjust the consistency and the flavor with more wine and vinegar as needed.
• Place some of the sauce on a 12-inch plate. Slice the veal very thin and place it in the center of the plate on top of the sauce. Garnish with the celery, leaves, capers, anchovies, black pepper and extra-virgin.

KEDGEREE

Steps:

• Simmer the haddock in 4 cups salted water for 10 to 15 minutes, but don't over cook. Drain the fish, saving the cooking water. Remove the skin and bones, and flake the fish, keep hot.
• Fry the onion gently in the butter with the garam masala and turmeric until softened.
• Cook the rice in the haddock water until tender, then drain and allow to dry out a little. Add the spiced fried onion to the rice and fold in the flaked fish and the roughly chopped eggs. Pour in the cream and add the quartered eggs. Season with salt, pepper and parsley.

ROASTED VEAL OSCAR WITH SWEET MAINE LOBSTER, ASPARAGUS, AND SAUCE CHORON

Steps:

• For the Artichoke Puree: Cut the artichoke into medium size pieces and place in a pot. Cover the artichokes with milk and cream. Bring to a boil and reduce to a low simmer. Cook the artichokes until very tender. Strain the artichokes (reserving the liquid). Transfer to a food processor. Add a little of the reserved cream if needed. Add the mascarpone and goat cheese and blend for 10 more seconds or until well mixed together. Season with salt and pepper if needed. Stir in the butter. Transfer to a container and keep warm.
• For the Choron sauce: In a small saucepan, combine the shallots, pepper, white wine, and vinegar. Reduce over medium heat until 2 tablespoons of liquid remains. In a heat-resistant mixing bowl, combine the egg yolks, water, salt, and shallot mixture. Whip over hot, but not boiling, water until thick and creamy. Slowly whisk in the melted butter, a few drops at a time, until the sauce begins to emulsify. In a slow stream, whisk in the remaining butter until it is completely incorporated. Whisk in the tarragon. Correct seasoning to taste. Whisk the chopped tomato or tomato paste into the sauce biarnaise. Correct seasoning, to taste. Keep warm until needed. Preparation time: 25 minutes Yield: 1 1/2 to 2 cups
• For the Veal: Season the veal with the salt and pepper and sear in a saute pan over high heat. Transfer to a preheated 350 degree F. oven and cook until medium rare (5 to 6 minutes). Remove from oven and keep warm. Steam the lobsters for 5 to 7 minutes, remove from water and let rest for 4 minutes. Remove the meat from the shell, slice the tail in half and keep in a little warm butter until ready to serve.
• Steam the cleaned asparagus until slightly underdone. Place a 4 ounce scoop of the artichoke puree in the center of each of 4 plates. On the puree place the veal and lobster so that they cover the puree. Place the warm asparagus on top of the 2 items. Drizzle 3 ounces choron sauce on top of each of the lobsters and around each plate. Garnish with the tarragon sprig.

WHITE RISOTTO WITH CORN, CARROTS, AND KALE

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a heavy saucepan or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the onion, reduce the heat to medium-low, and cook, stirring, until soft and translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the rice and stir to coat with the oil. Stir in the wine and cook until the wine has evaporated, 1 minute more.
• Stir in 2 cups (480 milliliters) of the warm broth and salt and pepper to taste, and bring to a boil. Stir, reduce the heat to medium-low, and cook until the liquid has evaporated. Season with salt and pepper. Add 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) of the broth and continue stirring, adding more broth 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) at a time, until the liquid has evaporated and the rice is al dente, 20 to 25 minutes. Most of the liquid should be absorbed and the rice just cooked, with about 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) broth remaining.
• While the rice cooks, heat 1 tablespoon of the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the carrots and brown slightly. Add 3 tablespoons water and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook until just fork tender, but still deep in color, adding additional splashes of water to the pan as needed. Add the kale and stir to wilt, 5 minutes more. Add the corn and cook until the kernels turn bright yellow but are still crisp, 1 minute more. Season the vegetables well and use a slotted spoon to remove them from the liquid.
• Stir in another 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) broth to the risotto as needed; add the remaining 3 tablespoons butter and the cheese and stir. Stir in the vegetables, or serve the risotto in bowls topped with the warm vegetables and coarsely grated Parmesan.
