CORNED SALMON AND SAVOY CABBAGE

Steps:

• Trim the root of the leek as well as the outside layer and any greens. Discard the root and outside layer, but reserve the greens for cooking the potatoes. Finely dice the white part and set aside.
• In a 4-quart pot, combine the leeks, butter, and water. Season well with salt and pepper. Cook over medium heat until softened, about 2 minutes. Add the cabbage and cardamom, if using, and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Let the leaves wilt. (It is important to watch this carefully.) The water left on the leaves should be enough to help sweat the cabbage, concentrating the sweetness of the cabbage. Cook until the water is nearly evaporated, remove from heat, and set aside.
• Place the potatoes in a 4-quart saucepan and cover with water. Season well with salt and pepper, add the thyme and leek trimmings, and bring to a boil. Once it reaches a boil, reduce heat to a gentle simmer and cook for 15 minutes, checking often on their doneness (they are tender when pierced with a knife). Drain and set aside.
• Bring 2 quarts water to a boil in a large pot over high heat. Blanch the herbs for 30 seconds, drain, and shock them very well by rinsing in a fine-mesh strainer with cold water for about 1 minute. Grab the blanched herbs in tight bunches and mince them once over with a very sharp chef's knife.
• Place the herbs in a blender or the bowl of a food processor with the ice and 3 tablespoons water.* Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Cover and blend at progressively higher speeds until top gear is attained.
• Once the mass of herbs is spinning and emulsifying with the water, it should run for about 20-30 more seconds; stop intermittently to scrape down the sides to achieve even results in blending. When smooth, carefully remove all of the coulis and place into a clean, small saucepot.
• Gently heat the herb coulis over low heat, and add the butter 1 piece at a time. Whisk to combine, season with salt and pepper, to taste, and keep warm. (The coulis, when heated with butter, will increase in viscosity.)
• In a bowl, combine the kosher salt, sugar, coriander, pepper, bay leaves, and garlic and coat each salmon fillet evenly. Place in the refrigerator and let cure for 45 minutes. Then, gently wipe off the curing ingredients, quickly rinse, and pat dry.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of the grapeseed oil in a 12-inch nonstick sauté pan over medium heat. When the oil is hot but not smoking, add the salmon flesh side down and sear until just browned, about 3 minutes.
• Increase heat to high, then carefully turn and place the salmon skin side down in the pan, making sure that the skin does not stick to the pan. Place in the oven for 4 minutes. Remove from the pan, and let rest 3 minutes. Remove the skin from each fillet and slice in ½ on a bias.
• Divide the potatoes among 4 warmed plates, drape the cabbage into a neat pile adjacent to the potatoes, place 1 salmon fillet on each plate, and drizzle the green herb coulis around the edge of the plates.

Add the potatoes, garlic confit, carrots and cabbage. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes. Gently stir in butter and season with salt and pepper. Set aside.

• In a 12-inch saute pan, heat the oil over medium high heat. Season the halibut on both sides with salt and pepper. Cook the halibut until golden, about 3 minutes. Turn and cook until the other side is golden, about 3 minutes more. Reduce the heat to medium and cook until the halibut is opaque in center, about 2 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer the vegetables to a warm serving plate, arrange the halibut filets on top and spoon some of the extra sauce around the vegetables and fish. Garnish with chives.
• Steam the Lobster Body. Chop the shells into small pieces. Saute the diced vegetables and thyme in oil until the onions begin to brown. Add the broken lobster shells. Pour in the sherry to deglaze the pan. Simmer to reduce the volume by 1/2. Add the heavy cream and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and continue cooking until the volume is reduced by 1/3. Add the tomato paste and mix well. Add salt and white pepper, to taste. Strain the sauce into a small bowl through a fine sieve, using a spoon to press the mixture against the side to yield the most sauce.

• In a deep 10-inch skillet bring wine and water to a simmer, covered. Cut salmon into 6 pieces and season with salt and pepper. Submerge 3 salmon pieces, skin sides down, in simmering liquid (add hot water if necessary to just cover salmon) and poach at a bare simmer, covered, 8 minutes, or until just cooked through. Transfer cooked salmon with a slotted spatula to a platter to cool and poach remaining salmon in same manner. When salmon is cool enough to handle, peel off skin and if desired with a sharp knife scrape off any dark meat. Salmon may be cooked 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Bring salmon to cool room temperature before serving.
• Assemble
• Cut potatoes lengthwise into 1/8-inch-thick slices. In a steamer set over boiling water steam potatoes until just tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Spoon sauce onto 6 plates and arrange some potatoes in a circle, overlapping slightly, on top of sauce . Season potatoes with salt and arrange salmon on top of potatoes. Garnish salmon with peas.

SALMON ON A BED OF CREAMY CABBAGE

Steps:

• Trim the cabbage, discarding any tough outer leaves and the inner core. Slice by hand into thin slivers. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and blanch the cabbage (cook for one minute). Remove and drain well.
• In a large skillet, combine the cabbage with two tablespoons of the butter and cook over low heat for two to three minutes. Season, cover and cook until slightly wilted but still crunchy, about five minutes. Stir in five tablespoons of the cream and continue cooking until warmed through, one to two minutes. Set aside and keep warm.
• Prepare the sauce. In a small saucepan combine the shallot with a tablespoon of butter and a pinch of salt. Cook over low heat until soft and translucent, three to four minutes. Add the wine and vinegar and bring to a boil. Cook until reduced by two-thirds, about two to three minutes. Remove from the heat. Gradually whisk in the remaining tablespoon of cream and five tablespoons of butter. Whisk until all the butter is incorporated and the sauce is smooth and creamy. Taste for seasoning. Transfer to the top of a double boiler set over gently simmering water. Cover loosely and keep warm over low heat.
• Prepare the salmon with a sharp knife. Score the salmon in a crisscross pattern, cutting through the skin and just slightly into the flesh. Generously season both sides of the salmon.
• In a large nonstick skillet, heat the oil over moderately high heat. When hot, put the salmon fillets skin side down in the skillet. Cook without turning until the skin is very crisp, two to three minutes (cooking time will depend on the thickness of the salmon). With a wide spatula, turn the salmon over and cook it barely 30 seconds. Leave the salmon in the pan and remove it from the heat. The salmon will continue the cooking process as you dress the plates.
• Spoon the cabbage into the center of four to eight warmed dinner plates. Top with a slice of salmon, skin side up, and spoon the warm sauce around the cabbage. Garnish with the herbs and serve immediately.
