SEAFOOD AU GRATIN
A seafood casserole is a 'must' for a bountiful buffet. My father was a fisherman, so we ate fish almost every day. Over the years, I've tasted many seafood dishes, but none better than this one. -Hazel McMullin, Amherst, Nova Scotia

BAKED FISH AU GRATIN
While not much of a seafood lover, I have been known to eat fish if you disguise the fishy taste enough. This recipe, found in an old cookbook, seems to pass the test. Photo: www.mothersdelite.com.au

FLUKE AU GRATIN
This is a very old recipe, taken from the kitchen of Henri's in Lynbrook, N.Y., opened by an extravagant French restaurateur named Henri Charpentier in 1910. It asks for flounder, known on Long Island as fluke, but you could make it with cod or haddock or halibut, with freshwater trout or catfish, with any mild-flavored fish. It's an elegant and really quite simple preparation, the fish fillets baked on top of and beneath a butter sauce cooked with chopped shallots, garlic, chives, parsley and minced mushrooms, brightened with lemon juice and white wine, and with bread crumbs, sliced mushrooms and dots of butter strewn across the top. You can make the sauce in the morning, if you like, and assemble the dish for the oven just before dinner, making it a breeze for weeknight entertaining. But it's no stretch to do it all, as Charpentier might have said, "à la minute."

Steps:
- Heat oven to 425 degrees. In a medium skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter over medium-high heat. When it foams, add the shallot, garlic, minced mushrooms, chives and parsley; stir to combine. Sauté until the garlic starts to toast and turn golden, about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Stir in 1/4 cup of the wine, the vinegar and lemon juice. Let cook until the liquid is reduced by half, stirring frequently, about 2 to 3 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Butter a casserole or baking dish large enough to accommodate the fillets of fish in one even layer, and spoon half the sautéed mushroom mixture into it. Arrange the fillets on top, season them with salt and pepper, and cover with the sliced mushrooms.
- Stir the remaining 2 tablespoons of wine into the sautéed mushroom mixture, and drizzle it evenly over the sliced mushrooms. Sprinkle the bread crumbs over the top of the dish. Cut the remaining 2 tablespoons butter into small pieces, and dot over the top.
- Roast until the top is golden and the fish is opaque and flaky, about 10 to 12 minutes. Garnish with remaining parsley.

CREAMY COD AND POTATO GRATIN
I got a Food Wish for a classic creamed cod recently (which, by the way, was one of my childhood favorites), but instead of doing the traditional version, I decided I'd try to make it a little bit fancier and refined and present basically all the same ingredients, but in an individual-sized, beautifully browned and bubbling, gratin form. Not to spoil the ending, but I was very happy with how this came out!

Steps:
- Place potatoes in a large pot of well-salted water and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat and simmer gently until tender, about 20 minutes.
- While potatoes simmer, trim, bone, and cut the cod fillets across into 2-inch pieces.
- Drain potatoes well and return to the pot. Add a pinch of cayenne, salt, and 4 tablespoons butter. Mash until smooth.
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Grease 2 individual-sized casserole or baking dishes with 1 tablespoon butter. Place both dishes on a baking sheet.
- Transfer about 2/3 cup of the mashed potatoes into each of the prepared dishes. Smooth out evenly and make a shallow depression with a spoon down the middle. Set aside.
- Heat remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a deep 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the shallots in the hot butter with a pinch of salt until they just start to turn golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Add cream, lemon zest, and a pinch of cayenne, and bring to a simmer. Add cod and wait for the sauce to come back to a simmer. Cook for 1 minute, while basting with the sauce; turn and cook for 1 minute more.
- Pour in lemon juice and turn off the heat; stir for about 30 seconds.
- Divide the pieces of cod over the potato. Add enough sauce to just cover the fish and return the pan to the stove.
- Bring sauce to a boil over medium-high heat and cook until the sauce reduces and thickens, 1 to 2 minutes. Turn off the heat and stir in tarragon.
- Spoon the thickened sauce over the cod. Add a light dusting of Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese.
- Bake in the center of the preheated oven until cod is cooked through and the sauce is browned and bubbling, 10 to 15 minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Tips:

- Serve the fish immediately. This dish is best served hot out of the oven.
