Best 8 Shrimp And Ginger Ravioli With Beurre Blanc Recipes

SHRIMP RAVIOLI

Steps:

• For the pasta: Mound the flour on a work surface. Season with a pinch of salt. Make a deep well in the middle of the flour, about 6 inches in diameter. Combine the eggs, egg yolks, olive oil and a pinch of salt together in a mixing bowl and mix well. Slowly add the egg mixture to the well in the flour, using a fork to start grabbing bits of flour from the outside of the well to mix into the egg mixture in the middle. Keep incorporating the sides of the well into the center until a tacky dough ball is formed. Knead the dough ball by hand until all the flour has fully incorporated. Wrap the dough ball well and let rest in the refrigerator for about 1 hour.
• For the filling: Combine the shrimp, Calabrian chiles, bacon, lemon and pinch of salt in a food processor. Puree for 10 to 15 seconds, then scrape down the sides and add the basil. Puree briefly until combined.
• Using a pasta roller, roll out the dough into 2 sheets of pasta thin enough to where you can feel your fingers through them (usually a number 5 to 6 on the sheeter setting). Place one sheet of the pasta dough on a well-floured surface. If using a cutter to make ravioli shapes, gently mark on the pasta sheet to see where the filling should be piped. Brush the dough with water. Add dollops of filling spaced out evenly across the middle of the sheet, using the marks as a guide. Gently brush a little bit of water over the second sheet of pasta. Place the sheet, dampened-side down, over the one with the filling, gently lining up the edges. Using your fingers, press and seal around the filling, making the seal as airtight as possible. Use a ring cutter or knife to cut out ravioli. Use your fingers to gently seal the edges and remove any air pockets and transfer the ravioli to a baking sheet sprinkled with semolina.
• For the sauce: Put a bit of olive oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the shallots, garlic and thyme leaves, then add the tomatoes and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes start to soften and burst, 7 to 10 minutes. Move the shallot mixture to one side of the pan, then remove the pan from the heat and deglaze with the vodka. Carefully ignite the vodka, slightly tipping the pan away from you. Once the flame subsides, return to the heat and cook at a simmer until the vodka has been reduced to 1 tablespoon, about 2 minutes. Add the cream, crushed Calabrian chiles, lemon juice and basil leaves and cook until the sauce is thickened and has reduced by about half, about 5 minutes.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and drop the fresh ravioli in. Cook just until it floats, about 1 1/2 minutes. Take the ravioli out of the pot with a skimmer or slotted spoon and place in the saute pan with a splash of pasta water. Toss the sauce and ravioli together over low heat.
• Using a large spoon, place the ravioli on plates and add more sauce over the top. Drizzle with olive oil and garnish with fresh basil leaves and grated Parmesan.

BEURRE BLANC (CLASSIC FRENCH BUTTER SAUCE)

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a saucepan and add the shallots. Cook briefly, stirring, and add the vinegar and wine. Cook until the liquid is almost totally reduced.
• Add the heavy cream and salt and bring to the boil. Add the pieces of butter, a few at a time, stirring rapidly with a wire whisk.

CHEF JOHN'S BEURRE BLANC

Steps:

• Place wine, lemon juice, cream, shallots, and cream in a saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium, and let simmer until liquid is reduced by about 75%, 4 to 5 minutes. Reduce heat to the lowest setting and whisk in about 2 cubes of butter. Keep butter moving until it melts. When melted, add a few more cubes, whisking continuously so butter emulsifies into the wine/lemon juice mixture.
• Continue to add butter, a few cubes at a time until all of it has been incorporated and the sauce has a thick, luxurious texture, 4 to 6 minutes. Remove from heat. Taste for seasonings and add a pinch of salt and cayenne, if desired. Serve immediately.

SHRIMP AND GINGER RAVIOLI WITH BEURRE BLANC

Steps:

• Peel and devein the shrimp. Reserve the shells for shrimp broth.
• Chop the shrimp into small cubes. In a mixing bowl, combine the shrimp, salt and pepper, water chestnuts, ginger, olive oil, coriander, pepper flakes and soy sauce. Blend well and let sit for about 10 minutes.
• Lay one won-ton wrapper on a lightly floured dry surface. Brush it with some of the beaten egg. Place three-quarters of a teaspoon of the shrimp mixture on the center of the won ton. Top the won ton with another skin, pressing the edges firmly around the perimeter to seal thoroughly. Trim the won-ton skin edges with a cookie cutter to remove excess dough. Repeat the procedure with the rest of the ingredients. Cover the finished uncooked ravioli with a moistened towel to keep them from drying out.
• Poach the ravioli, five or six at a time, in simmering shrimp broth for about one minute or until they rise to the surface. Drain and place four to six ravioli on warm serving plates. Drizzle some beurre blanc over and serve immediately.

LOBSTER RAVIOLI WITH SEARED SCALLOPS, ASPARAGUS AND PEAR TOMATOES, GINGER SOY BUERRE BLANC RECIPE - (5/5)

Steps:

• Ravioli Filling Preparation: 1. Poach lobster in rapidly boiling salted water for three minutes. Remove and cool. 2. Pre-heat sauté pan and sauté all leeks in 2 tbsp of olive oil. Sweat leeks for one minute then add shallots, ginger and salt and pepper to taste. Continue to sauté until leeks are tender. Remove from heat and add chopped tarragon, set aside and cool. 3. Remove all meat from lobster and dice into small pieces. Place in a colander to drain all water from lobster. 4. Using a Cuisinart, puree shrimp, two scallops and salmon, add one egg and continue to puree until smooth. Fold in heavy cream. 5. Gently mix together lobster, leeks and puree. Adjust seasoning and refrigerate. Beurre Blanc Preparation: Place all ingredients except butter into sauce pan and reduce over medium heat until the liquid in pan has the consistency of syrup. Slowly whisk in chilled butter until all butter is emulsified with the glaze. Add Teriyaki and Soy Sauce and pass through a fine sieve, add chopped ginger. * * *Keep sauce warm. It is important that the sauce does not get too cold or hot. Either will result in separation. Pasta Preparation: Put Flour, Salt and Olive Oil in a blender and process for a few seconds. Add the Eggs and the extra Yolks and process until pasta begins to come together into a loose ball of dough. Knead the pasta dough well on a flat surface until the mixture is smooth & even. Cut the dough into four equal sliced pieces and roll them into balls. Wrap each ball in plastic and allow them to rest in the refrigerator for twenty minutes. Freeze any extra pasta. Roll out one piece of the prepared basic pasta dough gently on a floured surface, then feed it through a pasta machine several times until the pasta is as thick as an envelope. Using a pastry cutter cut out four 4" circles & four 3 ¾ "circles. Spoon a good helping of the filling into the center of each of the four smaller circles. * Be careful to leave a clear edge around the filling to insure a good seal. Brush the edges with a little water & top with the larger circles. Gently press the edges together. Using scissors, trim away any irregular edges of the ravioli. Gently pinch them all around to insure the seal is sound. Refrigerate until ready to use. Final Preparation: 1. Bring ½ gallon salted water to boil. Drop in raviolis. Cook for approximately 1 ½ minutes. 2. While raviolis are cooking, place sesame oil in sauté pan. When pan starts to smoke add remaining scallops that have been halved lengthwise. Cook for a couple of seconds on each side or until brown. 3. Remove scallops from pan and add mushrooms and asparagus. Sauté for one minute then add tomatoes. Cook only until vegetables are heated and lightly colored. 4. Remove ravioli from water. 5. Place a little of the ginger soy buerre blanc on bottom of the bowl. Place ravioli on top; add more sauce to cover ravioli. Place seared scallops around ravioli to form a tripod. Place three asparagus, red tomatoes, yellow tomatoes and oyster mushrooms over ravioli. Serve immediately.
