APRICOT-GINGER SCONES



Apricot-Ginger Scones image

Categories     Ginger     Bake     Apricot     Kosher     Pastry

Yield MAKES 8 SCONES

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon heavy cream
1 large egg
1 1/3 cups (6 ounces) all-purpose flour, more for rolling
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup dried apricots, chopped (see Note)
3 tablespoons finely grated ginger
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Finely grated zest of 1 large orange
4 tablespoons (2 ounces) cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 1/2 tablespoons turbinado sugar, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat to 400°F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment or a nonstick liner.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup of the cream and the egg and set aside.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, combine the flour, oats, apricots, ginger, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and orange zest. Mix just to blend.
  • Add the butter and mix on medium-low speed until the butter is the size of small peas, about 1 minute. Add the cream mixture and mix on low speed just until it comes together in a ball, about 15 seconds. (To make by hand, whisk together the dry ingredients in a large bowl, use a pastry blender or two knives to cut in the butter, and stir in the cream.)
  • Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface (it will be fairly sticky) and shape into a disk about 7 inches across. Cut the disk into 8 wedges (for the cleanest cuts, wipe off your knife between cuts), brush with the remaining 1 tablespoon cream, and sprinkle with the turbinado sugar. Transfer to the baking sheet, keeping the scones at least 1 inch apart.
  • Bake for 15 minutes, then lower the heat to 350°F. Bake until the scones are just set and golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes longer.
  • Cool on a rack until warm or room temperature. Scones are best eaten the day they're made.
  • Note
  • California dried apricots produce the best results, as they are more intensely flavored and a bit more acidic than the Turkish variety.
  • Tip
  • Once you make and shape the dough, you can keep it for a couple of weeks in the refrigerator as long as it's well wrapped.

Here's what you need: honey, hot water, fresh ginger, garlic, fresh orange juice, orange, soy sauce, rice vinegar, red pepper flakes, kosher salt, salmon fillets, fresh cilantro, rice, broccoli

Provided by FoodSaver

Categories     Dinner

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 teaspoons honey
1 tablespoon hot water
1 fresh ginger, peeled and grated, 2 in (5 cm)
2 medium cloves garlic, minced
¾ cup fresh orange juice
1 orange, zested
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon rice vinegar
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
4 salmon fillets, skin removed
fresh cilantro, chopped, for garnish
rice, steamed, for serving
broccoli, for serving, steamed

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together honey and hot water until the honey dissolves. Add the ginger, garlic, orange juice, orange zest, soy sauce, rice vinegar, red pepper flakes, and ½ teaspoon salt, and whisk to combine.
  • Arrange the salmon fillets in a 10-cup FoodSaver Preserve and Marinate Container. Pour most of the marinade over the salmon, reserving about ½ cup. Place the lid on the container. Turn the valve so the arrow points to the Marinate/Open position.
  • On the FoodSaver vacuum sealer, turn the latch to the Operate position and pull the Built-in Handheld Sealer from the appliance. Remove the liquid reservoir from the Handheld Sealer and insert the tip into the port on the container lid.
  • Press the Mode button on the vacuum sealer until the indicator light next to Marinate is illuminated. Press the Handheld button to marinate. The marinating process will start automatically and will take 12 minutes.
  • While the salmon is marinating, preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Use tongs to remove the salmon from the container and place on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle the salmon with the remaining ½ teaspoon salt. Discard the salmon marinating liquid.
  • Roast the salmon for 8-10 minutes, or until it flakes easily when nudged with a fork.
  • While the salmon roasts, pour the reserved ½ cup marinade into a small pot and place over medium heat. Bring to a simmer. Continue to simmer until sauce reduces and thickens slightly, about 5-6 minutes. Once it has reduced, remove the pot from the heat.
  • Spoon the sauce over the salmon, then garnish with chopped cilantro. Serve with steamed rice and broccoli.
  • Save any leftover salmon in a Preserve and Marinate Container on the Preserve mode.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your dish.
  • Don't overcook the salmon. Salmon is a delicate fish that can easily become dry and overcooked. Cook it until it is just cooked through, or about 5 minutes per side.
  • Use a good-quality apricot glaze. The glaze is what will give your salmon its sweet and tangy flavor. Look for a glaze that is made with real apricots and has a nice balance of sweetness and acidity.
  • Serve the salmon immediately. Salmon is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will help to preserve its delicate flavor and texture.

Conclusion:

Apricot ginger salmon is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a good source of protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and vitamins. If you are looking for a healthy and flavorful salmon recipe, this is the one for you!
