LOUISIANA COURT-BOUILLON (OR CAJUN COURT BOUILLON)

Louisiana Court-Bouillon (Or Cajun Court Bouillon) image

Fish stews are common around the Gulf Coast, but a court-bouillon (pronounced coo-bee-on) is special. I recall my dad spending the better part of a Saturday brewing up a batch of this classy elixir. This is a variation of a Nola Cuisine recipe based on catfish.

GE COURT BOUILLON

Time 28m

Yield Yield: 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups water
1/2 cup white wine
1 lemon, juiced
1 onion, chopped
1/2 celery rib, chopped
1 garlic clove, chopped finely
1 teaspoon black peppercorns
4 to 5 sprigs fresh thyme
1 bay leaf

Steps:

Combine all ingredients in a saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat and simmer for 8 minutes. Strain or use chunky the first time, then strain through a fine mesh and either refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months. Either way, be sure to bring to a boil before reusing.

Tips:

Choose the Right Fish: Use a firm-fleshed fish like salmon, cod, or tilapia that will hold its shape well in the court bouillon.
Use Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs like parsley, thyme, and bay leaves add a lot of flavor to the court bouillon. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but they won't be as flavorful.
Don't Overcook the Fish: Fish cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. The fish is done when it flakes easily with a fork.
Serve Immediately: Court bouillon is best served immediately after it is made. The flavors are at their best when the dish is hot.

Conclusion:

Court bouillon is a flavorful and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a great way to cook fish, and it can also be used to make a variety of other dishes, such as soups, stews, and sauces. If you are looking for a delicious and easy seafood recipe, court bouillon is a great option.
