Categories     Duck

Time 2h6m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 cups unsalted blanched almonds
3 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons canola oil
2 tablespoons hazelnut oil
2 teaspoons fleur de sel or kosher salt
4 cups concord black grapes
2 cups sugar
1 lemon, juice of
8 slices/ 500 g grade a duck foie gras
4 slices brioche bread
sea salt & freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the almond butter:.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a bowl, mix together the almonds, honey, canola oil and hazelnut oil.
  • Spread the almonds on a cookie sheet covered with parchment paper, sprinkle with salt and toast in the oven for approximately 10 minutes or until fragrant and lightly caramelized, watching them closely and stirring halfway through if necessary. Let cool for 1 minute. Cook's Note: Cool no longer than 1 minute, as the almonds will cool and harden, which makes getting them off the paper very difficult!
  • In a food processor, add 3/4 of the roasted almonds. Process on high speed for 5 minutes or until you have the desired consistency. Scrape down the sides with a rubber spatula and process again to the desired smoothness. Add a few drops of oil if it's too thick. Adjust the seasoning, to taste. With a knife, chop the remaining almonds and keep aside to use as a garnish.
  • For the grape jelly:.
  • Rinse the grapes and put them in a big pot with the sugar and lemon juice. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, stirring often, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer for about 20 to 25 minutes or until it starts to thicken. Skim the surface regularly to ensure a clear jam.
  • Let it cool for 1 hour. Pour the mixture in a clean jar and reserve in the refrigerator. Grape jelly will keep for a week.
  • For the duck foie gras:.
  • Season the foie gras with salt and pepper.
  • In a pan on medium heat, saute the foie gras 20 seconds on each side or just until golden brown. Remove from the pan and set aside in a warm place. Add the brioche bread to the pan to soak up the remaining juices and duck fat and lightly toast on each side, about 2 minutes in total.
  • When ready to plate, spread the almond butter on a slice of bread, cover with a slice of foie gras. Garnish with the grape jelly and the reserved crushed almonds.
  • Cook's Notes:.
  • Roasted pecans, hazelnuts, macadamia, brazil nuts or peanuts work well, too. Combining different nuts is also fun to experiment with. The nut butter can also be flavored with spices like orange zest, cardamom, or cinnamon.
  • The first and most important thing to consider when making a batch of peanut butter is buying fresh peanuts, or other nuts. Because nuts have such a high oil content, they can go rancid if stored improperly, or for too long. Buy your nuts from a busy store with a good turnover and you should have no problem.
  • Nuts can be kept in the freezer for almost a year.
  • Cool no longer than 1 minute, as the almonds will cool and harden, which makes getting them off the paper very difficult!
  • The almond butter can keep in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 months.
  • Hazelnut oil can be substituted with macadamia nut oil or grilled sesame oil.

Categories     appetizer

Time P2DT1h45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 31

1 pound 10 ounces foie gras, softened
3 pounds 4 ounces salt
8 3/4 ounces sugar
5 1/4 ounces pink salt
2 1/2 tablespoons five spice powder
1/4 cup brandy
1/4 cup port
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
3 1/2 ounces sauterne reduction (reduced from almost 2 bottles of sauterne)
3 1/4 ounces veal demiglace
4 sheets gelatin, bloomed
2 eggs
2 egg yolks
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 ounces isomalt
3 ounces grape instant drink powder (recommended: Kool-Aid)
2 ounces sable dough, or storebought shortbread cookies
1 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup water
2 tablespoons chopped roasted peanuts
8 sheets bronze gelatin, bloomed
2 cups grape juice
End of 1 lobe foie gras
2 cups high-quality grape juice
Red wine vinegar
Salt
Agar
4 small slices foie gras
Flour, for coating
3 tablespoons duck fat
1 teaspoon finely chopped roasted peanuts

Steps:

  • Pass the softened foie gras through a tamis or fine mesh sieve into a large bowl. Mix the salt, sugar, pink salt, five spice powder, brandy, and port into the foie gras. Divide evenly among three vacuum-sealed bags, each weighing about 9 ounces each. Let cure in the refrigerator for at least 2 days.
  • To make the smoked foie gras custard:
  • Remove the foie gras from one of the vacuum-sealed bags. Place it in a slotted pan. Light 2 pieces of fig wood over a burner, set the smoking branches in a large roasting pan, and place 4 large ring molds or ramekins in four corners of the pan. Set a wire rack on top of the molds, and a bag of ice on the wire rack. Finally, put the slotted pan over the ice and cover it quickly with tinfoil. Let it cold-smoke for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Heat the cream, reduced sauterne, and veal demiglace in a saucepan. In a blender, emulsify the smoked foie gras and bloomed gelatin. Transfer to a bowl and chill completely. Whisk in the eggs and yolks. Adjust the salt and pepper if needed. Pour into ramekins. Set the ramekins in a roasting pan lined with towels and filled with 1/2-inch of water. Bake about 25 minutes, rotating the pan halfway. Let cool.
  • To make the grape tuile:
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a coffee grinder, grind the isomalt, grape instant drink powder, and sable dough together. Sift onto a silicone-lined baking sheet. Bake for 5 to 6 minutes. While still warm cut into rounds.
  • To make the mille feuille:
  • Bring the 2 remaining vacuum-sealed bags of cured foie gras to room temperature. Fill two small flat pans of equal size with the foie gras. Smooth the tops, and keep refrigerated as you prepare the other components.
  • In a pot, combine the peanut butter, water, and peanuts. When it's warm, add 4 sheets of the bloomed gelatin. Set aside. In another pot, heat the grape juice and add the remaining 4 sheets of gelatin. Set aside.
  • Smear the peanut butter gelee atop one of the sheets of foie gras, and carefully place the other sheet of foie gras on top. Press down gently to adhere the two sides. Refrigerate until cold. Pour the grape gelee mixture over the exposed layer of foie gras and let set. Refrigerate. Slice into small squares using a hot knife.
  • To shave the foie gras:
  • Chill the end piece of the foie gras lobe very well and slice on a deli slicer very thin. It will curl up into small tubes. Set aside in the refrigerator.
  • To make the grape gel:
  • In a saucepan, bring the grape juice to a boil and reduce until concentrated and very flavorful, and reduced by about one-quarter. Season with vinegar and salt, to taste. Measure the liquid. For every 100 milliliter (3.4 ounces) of liquid, use 1 gram (scant 1/4 teaspoon) of agar. Add the agar to the liquid and bring to a boil while whisking. Let set up in cooler. Once it's set, blend the gelee until thick, adding grape juice to thin it, if needed. Adjust the seasoning.
  • To sear the foie gras:
  • Coat the foie gras with flour. In a small saute pan, melt the duck fat and sear the foie gras. Top with the peanuts.
  • To plate, arrange each component on a plate.
