Categories     fish

Time 35m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 16

2-3 tablespoons olive oil (or butter)
1 onion, diced (or sub 2 leeks, sliced or 2 fat shallots)
1 small fennel bulb, 1 1/2 cups diced
1 cup celery, sliced
2-4 garlic cloves, rough chopped
1 teaspoon fennel seeds (optional)
1/2 teaspoon thyme (dry, or 2 teaspoons fresh)
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/3 cup vermouth, cooking sherry or white wine (or leave it out, see notes)
3 cups fish or chicken stock- if using chicken broth see notes, on how to enhance
3/4 lb baby potatoes, thinly sliced (1/4 inch thick)
1 teaspoon salt
1 bay leaf
1 lb salmon, skinless. (or ok to sub other fish like cod or shrimp), cut into 1 -2 inch pieces ( the more uniform, the better)
2 cups whole milk (or half & half or a combo, or dairy-free milk like coconut milk, or 1/2- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
Garnish: fennel fronds, lemon wedges, fresh dill or tarragon.

Steps:

  • Heat oil over medium heat, and saute onion, fennel and celery until fragrant, 5-6 minutes. Add garlic, fennel seeds, thyme and saute two more minutes, stirring. Add the smoked paprika.
  • Add vermouth, and cook it off, about 1-2 minutes. Add stock, salt, thyme and bay, and bring to a simmer over high heat. Add potatoes and stir. Bring to a simmer, cover and simmer over med-low heat until tender, about 8-10 minutes (check at 7 mins, be careful to not overcook). While this is cooking prep the salmon.
  • Cut salmon into 2-inch pieces, removing any of the brown fat ( see notes) and bones. Sprinkle lightly with salt.
  • Once the potatoes are just fork-tender, add the milk and bring to a low simmer (do not boil) and add the salmon, gently poaching it in the soup for just about 2 minutes. Turn heat off. Fish will continue to cook. If you continue to simmer the soup any longer it may cause a slight curdling. ( Don't worry, it's still edible, but not as pretty.) Flake the fish apart, into bite-sized pieces, with a fork.
  • Taste, adjust seasonings to your liking and serve immediately.
  • Garnish with fennel fronds, lemon wedges, fresh dill or tarragon.
  • Soup will keep 3 days in the fridge.

Here's what you need: butter, garlic, medium onion, fresh spinach, salt, pepper, breadcrumb, cream cheese, shredded parmesan cheese, fresh dill, puff pastry, salmon fillet, salt, pepper, egg

Provided by Tasty

Categories     Dinner

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tablespoons butter
2 cloves garlic, chopped
½ medium onion, chopped
5 oz fresh spinach
1 teaspoon salt, for spinach
1 teaspoon pepper, for spinach
⅓ cup breadcrumb
4 oz cream cheese
¼ cup shredded parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
1 sheet puff pastry, softened to room temperature
1 salmon fillet
1 teaspoon salt, for salmon
1 teaspoon pepper, for salmon
1 egg, beaten

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  • In a pan over medium heat, melt butter. Add the garlic and onions, cooking until translucent.
  • Add the spinach, salt, and pepper, cooking until spinach is wilted.
  • Add the breadcrumbs, cream cheese, parmesan, and dill, stirring until mixture is evenly combined. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • On a cutting board, smooth out the sheet of puff pastry. Place the salmon in the middle of the pastry and season both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Place several spoonfuls of the spinach mixture on top of the salmon, smoothing it out so that it does not spill over the sides.
  • Fold the edges of the puff pastry over the salmon and spinach, starting with the longer sides and then the shorter ends. Trim any excess pastry from the ends, then fold the ends on top. Flip the puff pastry-wrapped salmon over and transfer for a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Brush the beaten egg on the top and sides of the pastry. Score the top of the pastry with a knife, cutting shallow diagonal lines to create a crosshatch pattern.
  • Brush the top again with the egg wash.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes, until pastry is golden brown.
  • Slice, then serve!

SALMON AND RICE WRAPPED IN PASTRY WITH DILL SAUCE



Salmon and Rice Wrapped in Pastry with Dill Sauce image

Categories     Mushroom     Rice     Bake     Salmon     Winter     Engagement Party     Dill     Bon Appétit

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

Salmon, Rice, Pastry
1/2 cup long-grain white rice
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter
1/2 cup minced leek (white and pale green parts only)
6 ounces fresh shiitake mushrooms, stemmed, chopped
2 sheets frozen puff pastry (one 17 1/4-ounce package), thawed
4 6-ounce (4x2 1/2-inch) skinless salmon fillet
1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon water
Dill Sauce
2/3 cup bottled clam juice
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 1/4 cups crème fraîche or whipping cream
3 tablespoons minced fresh dill

Steps:

  • For salmon, rice, pastry:
  • Bring medium saucepan of salted water to boil. Add rice; boil uncovered until just tender, about 18 minutes. Drain.
  • Melt butter in heavy medium skillet over medium-low heat. Add leek; sauté until beginning to soften, about 4 minutes. Add mushrooms. Cover skillet; cook until mushrooms release their juices, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Uncover skillet. Increase heat to medium-high; sauté until liquid evaporates, about 3 minutes. Transfer to bowl. Add rice. Season with salt and pepper. Cool completely.
  • Butter large baking sheet. Roll out 1 pastry sheet on floured surface to 12-inch square. Cut into 4 equal squares. Divide rice mixture among centers of squares, mounding in oval shape with ends toward 2 corners of pastry. Set salmon atop rice. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bring pastry corners up around salmon (pastry will not enclose salmon completely.) Roll out remaining pastry sheet on floured surface to 13-inch square. Cut into 4 equal squares. Lay 1 square atop each salmon fillet, tucking corners under bottom pastry to enclose salmon completely. Pinch edges together to seal, brushing with egg mixture if necessary to adhere. Arrange salmon packages, seam side down, on prepared baking sheet. Cover and chill 30 minutes. (Can be made 8 hours ahead. Keep chilled.)
  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Brush top of pastry with egg mixture. Bake until golden and thermometer inserted into fish registers 145°F, about 30 minutes.
  • For dill sauce:
  • Combine clam juice and wine in heavy small nonaluminum saucepan. Boil until reduced to 1/3 cup, about 9 minutes. Reduce heat to medium. Whisk in creème fraîche. Boil until reduced to 1 cup, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in dill. Season with salt and pepper.
  • If crème fraîche is unavailable, heat 1 cup whipping cream to lukewarm (85°F). Remove from heat and mix in 2 tablespoons buttermilk. Cover and let stand in warm draft-free area until slightly thickened (24 to 48 hours, depending on temperature of room). Refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Transfer salmon packages to plates. Spoon Dill Sauce around and serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
  • Don't overcook the salmon. It should be cooked through but still moist.
  • If you don't have heavy cream, you can use milk or half-and-half instead.
  • For a thicker chowder, add more flour or cornstarch.
  • For a more flavorful chowder, use a good quality fish stock.
  • Serve the chowder hot with a side of crusty bread or crackers.

Conclusion:

This salmon and dill chowder with pastry crust is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a cold winter day. The combination of salmon, dill, and vegetables in a creamy broth is simply irresistible. The pastry crust adds a touch of elegance and makes this dish perfect for a special occasion.
