Simmer until the flavors are blended and the cream is reduced by half. Season with salt and pepper. Melt the remaining 4 tablespoons butter in a wide sauté pan, and add the shallots and thyme. Cook until the shallots are softened and translucent. Add the morel mushrooms and toss to coat with the shallots. Cook until the morels are slightly wilted. Season with salt and pepper. Toss in the fava beans and warm through. Season the fish on all sides with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Heat a grill or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.

BRODO WITH PACIFIC HALIBUT QUENELLE AND SHAVED WILD MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Place a very large saucepan over medium-high heat, add the New Mexican chiles, Thai bird chiles, ancho chiles, porcini mushrooms, garlic, red onions, lemongrass, peppercorns, bay leaves, 2 big pinches salt, and the white wine. Add the bones, head and tail from the fish and cover with about 2-inches cold water over the bones. Bring to a simmer for about 30 minutes, skimming occasionally to remove any impurities that float to the top.
• Place the halibut scraps into the chilled food processor bowl with a bit pinch of salt and pulse to blend to a similar size. Be careful not to over process because the food processor does create heat and the fish will get tough. Add the egg whites and pulse to combine. Add about 3 to 4 ounces heavy cream and blend to combine. Add a touch more heavy cream if needed; you are looking for a fluffy mousse or mashed potato consistency. Pour the mixture into a clean bowl and place back over an ice bath to keep chilled. Keep in the refrigerator until ready to shape into quenelles.
• Remove some of the broth and add to a high sides saute pan over medium heat and bring to a simmer. Using 2 large metal spoons form the fish into quenelles and place onto a hotel pan or baking sheet covered in plastic wrap for easy removal. Add the fish quenelles to the gently simmering broths and cook for about 3 to 4 minutes until they are cooked through.
• For plating: (1 serving)
• Place a coffee filter over a wire mesh strainer over a bowl and add 4 to 5 cups broth. Allow to strain through, pushing with a spoon if needed.
• To a French press, add the kaffir lime leaves, star anise, cinnamon stick and pour over the strained broth. Allow the mixture to steep, about 2 minutes. Press and taste for seasoning.
• Place 1 of the cooked quenelles into the middle of a serving bowl. Top each with some of the mushrooms, chervil, chiles, and lime zest. Pour the broth over the quenelle.

ROASTED GARLIC AND PARMESAN BAKED HALIBUT

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375˚F.
• Cut off the top of the head of garlic and brush off some of the outer paper skin, leaving just the individually wrapped cloves. On a piece of foil, pour the olive oil over the garlic, then wrap the foil around it and place it in the oven for 45 minutes, until it's completely soft. For the recipe, you'll only need six cloves from the head, but it's worth making a whole head to keep the rest for spreading on crusty bread or adding to salads.
• Raise the oven temperature to 425˚F.
• Heat the butter in an oven-proof pan over low heat. Sprinkle both sides of the fish with salt and pepper. When the butter is melted, add the halibut and put it into the oven for 10 minutes. The fish should be just cooked and opaque throughout.
• While the halibut cooks, blend or food process together six cloves of garlic, the mayonnaise, and parmesan. When the halibut is done, pull it out and generously smear the mayonnaise mixture on the top. Switch the oven to a high broil and return the pan to the still-hot oven for 4 minutes under the broiler, until the top is almost entirely golden brown.
• Remove and serve immediately.
