Categories     appetizer

Time 2h36m

Yield 9 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 teaspoons unflavored powdered gelatin
2 tablespoons cold water
8 ounces quark or farmers cheese, room temperature
8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
3 to 5 good quality, jarred anchovies in olive oil, drained
7 whole, fresh chives
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup roughly chopped flat-leaf parsley
1 recipe Steamed Asparagus, cooled, recipe follows
Toasted French bread slices, for serving
Special equipment: Spritz bottle filled with water
1/4 cup water
1 pound fresh asparagus, 1 to 1 1/2 inches cut off the bottom
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • Spritz a 9 by 5-inch loaf pan with water and line it with plastic wrap, leaving enough excess to fold over the top when filled.
  • Combine the gelatin and water in a 1-quart saucepan and set aside to bloom for 5 minutes.
  • Put the quark, cream cheese, anchovies, chives, and black pepper in the bowl of a food processor and process for 1 minute. Stop and scrape down the sides of the bowl.
  • Put the bloomed gelatin over low heat until melted, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat. With the food processor running, slowly pour the melted gelatin into the cheese mixture and process for 30 seconds.
  • Sprinkle the parsley evenly across the bottom of the prepared loaf pan. Pour 1/4 of the cheese mixture over the parsley. Top with 1/3 of the asparagus in a single layer, alternating direction of tips. Repeat with remaining cheese mixture and asparagus, ending with the cheese mixture. Fold the excess plastic wrap over the filling. Set a second loaf pan on top of the plastic wrap and press down to compact. Refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours.
  • Serve chilled, cut into 1-inch slices, along with crackers or toasted French bread slices.
  • To store, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 2 days.
  • Pour or spritz the water onto 4 paper towels. Spread out the paper towels and lay the asparagus on top of the dampened towels. Sprinkle with the salt. Roll up the asparagus in the dampened towels. Lay the bundle, seam side down, in the microwave. Microwave on high until the asparagus is just crisp tender, about 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the microwave using tongs and carefully unwrap.

Provided by Florence Fabricant

Categories     dinner, pastas, main course

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 pound fresh asparagus, medium thickness
Salt
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 tablespoon minced shallots
1 cup heavy cream
4 ounces smoked salmon sliced 1/4-inch thick
Freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
9 to 10 ounces fresh green fettuccine noodles
2 tablespoons minced fresh dill

Steps:

  • Snap off the ends of the asparagus where they break naturally and peel the stalks. Cut the asparagus on a slant to pieces about an inch long.
  • Steam the asparagus until they are just barely tender and still bright green, about three minutes. Rinse under cold water, drain well on paper towels and set aside.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil for the pasta.
  • While the water is coming to a boil, melt the butter in a large heavy skillet. Add the shallots and saute until soft but not brown. Stir in the cream and simmer about five minutes, until the cream has thickened somewhat.
  • Cut the salmon into slivers, add it to the cream and remove the skillet from the heat. Season with pepper and lemon juice. Add the asparagus.
  • When the pot of water is boiling, add the fettuccine, stir it once or twice, then cook two to three minutes after the water has returned to a boil. Drain well.
  • Briefly reheat the sauce. Transfer the fettuccine to a warm serving bowl, pour the sauce over it and toss. Sprinkle with dill and serve.

SMOKED SALMON TERRINE



Smoked salmon terrine image

A show-stopping layered fish centrepiece with cream cheese and lemon filling, flavoured with dill and chives

Provided by Sarah Cook

Categories     Main course

Time 50m

Yield Makes 1 terrine, cuts into about 8-10 slices

Number Of Ingredients 8

600g smoked salmon slices
600g cream cheese
150ml double cream
zest and juice 1 lemon, thin wedges to serve
1 tbsp very finely chopped dill, plus a few fronds to serve
2 tbsp finely snipped chive
a little oil, for greasing
melba toast or toasted soda bread, to serve

Steps:

  • Grease a loaf tin, a 900g/2lb one is ideal but you can use one slightly smaller or bigger. Line with cling film, then cover just the base with one layer of smoked salmon slices, trimmed to fit neatly.
  • Whizz the cream cheese, cream, lemon zest and juice together in a food processor to combine. Scrape out and stir in the dill and chives with some seasoning. Spread an 8th of the cream cheese mixture over as evenly as you can. Top with a layer of salmon slices. Repeat with the cream cheese and salmon - you should be able to do 7 layers of cream cheese (By starting with just an 8th of the mixture, it means as the tin widens you'll have enough to put a bit more as you go further up creating even layers.) Finish with a last layer of salmon (and treat yourself to a smoked salmon sarnie with any trimmings!) Cover with cling film, pressing down gently, then chill overnight.
  • To serve, turn onto a platter and gently peel off the cling film. Scatter with a few dill fronds and serve with lemon wedges and toast.

SALMON, ASPARAGUS, AND LEEK IN PARCHMENT



Salmon, Asparagus, and Leek in Parchment image

Cooking fresh salmon en papillote (that is, in parchment) is a messproof way to coax the most flavor from the fish without adding a lot of oil or butter -- and it's pretty much impossible to dry the salmon out with this cooking method.This recipe is one of our Better Basics: 10 New Takes on Family Favorites, see the others.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Seafood Recipes     Salmon Recipes

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 bunch asparagus (about 8 ounces), trimmed and thinly sliced on the bias
1 small leek, white and pale-green parts only, thinly sliced, washed well, and drained
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
4 skinless salmon fillets (each about 5 ounces and 1 inch thick), preferably wild
1/4 cup packed fresh herbs, such as tarragon, dill, basil, or parsley, or a combination, for serving
Lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees with racks in upper and lower thirds. Cut four 12-by-17-inch pieces of parchment. Fold each in half crosswise to make a crease, then unfold and lay flat. Toss asparagus and leek with oil in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Season fish with salt and pepper. Arrange a fillet on one side of crease on each piece of parchment. Top with asparagus mixture, dividing evenly. Fold each piece of parchment over, then make small overlapping pleats to seal open sides, creating half-moon-shaped packets.
  • Bake on 2 rimmed baking sheets, 10 minutes for medium-rare. Transfer to plates and carefully cut packets open with kitchen shears (steam will be released). Serve, topped with herbs and squeezed with lemon wedges.

salt
1/2 pound (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature, plus butter for buttering the terrine
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
1 pound smoked salmon, cut in thin slices

Steps:

Plunge the spinach in ice water to cool it. Drain. Press the excess water out of the spinach by forming it into a ball in your hands and squeezing it.
  • Put the spinach, butter, Worcestershire sauce and Tabasco in a food processor. Process until you have a smooth paste.
  • Butter the bottom and sides of a one-and-a-half-quart terrine mold. Then line the mold with parchment paper.
  • Fill mold with layers: thin sliced salmon alternating with one-fourth-inch spinach layers. The bottom and top layers should be salmon.
  • Refrigerate for at least three hours before serving. To remove the terrine from its mold, invert it over a serving plate. If necessary, slip a knife between the parchment paper and the mold, or lower the mold into hot water for a few minutes before inverting it. Cut the terrine in one-fourth-inch slices with a knife that is dipped in hot water before each cut.
