SPINACH AND OYSTER BISQUE



Spinach and Oyster Bisque image

Categories     Soup/Stew     Milk/Cream     Blender     Dairy     Quick & Easy     Oyster     Spinach     Gourmet

Yield Makes about 6 1/2 cups, serving 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 pints shucked oysters including the liquor
1 large onion, chopped
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 pound spinach, washed well and the coarse stems discarded
1/2 teaspoon dried tarragon
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated lemon zest
1/4 teaspoon sugar
freshly grated nutmeg to taste
oyster crackers as an accompaniment

Steps:

  • Drain the oysters in a fine sieve set over a measuring cup, add enough water to the oyster liquor to measure 2 1/2 cups, and reserve the liquid. Discard any shell fragments from the oysters, rinse the oysters briefly, and chop them into 1/2-inch pieces. In a kettle cook the onion in the butter over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until it is pale golden, add the flour, and cook the roux, stirring, for 2 minutes. Whisk in the reserved oyster liquid and bring the mixture to a boil, whisking. Add the spinach, half the oysters, and the tarragon and simmer the mixture, stirring, for 2 minutes. In a blender purée the mixture in batches until it is smooth, transferring it as it is puréed to a bowl, and return it to the kettle. Add the cream and the remaining oysters and heat the bisque over moderate heat, stirring, until it is hot and the oysters are cooked, but do not let it boil. Stir in the zest, the sugar, the nutmeg, and salt and pepper to taste and serve the bisque with the oyster crackers.

Tips:

  • Use fresh spinach: Fresh spinach has a more vibrant flavor and color than frozen spinach. If using frozen spinach, be sure to thaw it completely and squeeze out any excess water before using.
  • Don't overcook the spinach: Overcooked spinach will become mushy and lose its flavor. Cook it just until it is wilted, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Use a good quality chicken broth: The flavor of the broth will come through in the soup, so be sure to use a good quality broth. You can also use vegetable broth for a vegetarian version of the soup.
  • Season to taste: Be sure to taste the soup and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or garlic powder.
  • Serve with your favorite toppings: Spinach bisque is delicious served with a variety of toppings, such as croutons, crumbled bacon, shredded cheese, or a dollop of sour cream.

Conclusion:

Spinach bisque is a delicious, creamy, and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a quick and healthy meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover spinach. With its vibrant green color and rich flavor, spinach bisque is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
