1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1 1/2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled, cut into 1/3" cubes

Continue simmering liquid (with bacon) until reduced to 2 cups, about 10 minutes. Strain liquid; discard solids. Add 3 cups water; set aside.]

SCOTTISH CULLEN SKINK (SMOKED HADDOCK CHOWDER) image

While not a seafood lover myself, I know that most everyone else does enjoy it. In fact, I'm the only one in my family who doesn't partake as a rule--there are a couple of exceptions. I am told this dish is delicious and I will gladly prepare it for family. This is one of Scotland's most famous dishes, coming from the small town...

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 1/2 c milk
1/2 c flat leaf parsley
1 bay leaf
1 lb smoked haddock fillet
1/2 stick butter
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 c mashed potatoes, leftover or cooked fresh
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Pour the milk into a large saucepan. Remove the leaves from the parsley and add the stalks to the milk. Finely chop the leaves and set aside. Add the bay leaf and the haddock to the milk.
  • 2. Bring the milk to a gentle boil and cook for 3 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and leave for 5 minutes to allow the herbs to infuse their flavor into the milk.
  • 3. Remove the haddock from the milk with a slotted spoon and set aside. Strain the liquid through a fine sieve and reserve the herb-infused milk.
  • 4. Heat the butter in another saucepan, add the onions and cook gently until translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • 5. Add the milk to the onions, then add the mashed potatoes and stir until totally blended into the milk. It should be thick and creamy.
  • 6. Flake the smoked haddock into meaty chunks, taking care to remove any bones. Add chunks to the soup.
  • 7. Add the chopped parsley leaves to soup and bring to a gentle simmer, cooking for an additional 5 minutes. Do not over-stir. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • 8. NOTE: Sometimes Cullen Skink is served with a poached egg on top for a more filling soup.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest haddock you can find. Fresh haddock will have a firm, white flesh and a mild, sweet flavor. Avoid haddock that is mushy or has a strong fishy smell.
  • Soak the haddock in milk before cooking. This will help to remove any excess salt and make the fish more tender.
  • Use a variety of vegetables in your chowder. This will add flavor and texture to the dish. Some good choices include potatoes, carrots, celery, and onions.
  • Don't overcook the haddock. Haddock is a delicate fish that can easily become overcooked. Cook it just until it is opaque and flaky.
  • Serve the chowder with a side of crusty bread or crackers. This will help to soak up the delicious broth.

Conclusion:

Smoked haddock chowder is a classic New England dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With its creamy broth, tender fish, and flavorful vegetables, smoked haddock chowder is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
