RUSSIAN SALMON PIE



Russian Salmon Pie image

The Russians call it kulebyaka, but in Alaska it is pirok, perok or peroche - all amendments of pirog, the more general Russian word for pie. Inside the flaky crust, wild salmon from Alaskan waters is layered with rice and cabbage, crops introduced to the 18th-century natives of Kodiak Island by fur traders from across the strait. Long after the Russians gave up the hunt for sea otter pelts and sold their claim to the territory to the United States, the frontier fish-camp dish remained a staple of the Alaskan table. Kirsten Dixon, the chef and an owner of Winterlake Lodge, along the Iditarod Trail, and Tutka Bay Lodge, near Homer, likes to make salmon pie at Thanksgiving, when the Alaskan back country is already muffled in snow and guests arrive by ski plane, landing on a frozen lake.

Time 1h20m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 red onion, diced
1/2 pound mushrooms, cleaned and sliced
1/2 head green cabbage, cored and shredded
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
Salt and black pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 1-pound skinless salmon fillet (preferably Alaskan)
2 sheets homemade or store-bought puff pastry
2 cups cooked short grain brown rice
2 eggs, one hard-boiled, the other beaten
1/2 cup shredded sharp Cheddar
1/2 cup fine bread crumbs
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
1/4 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375 degrees. Melt butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 7 minutes. Stir in mushrooms, cabbage and vinegar; increase heat to medium. Cover pan and cook 4 minutes; uncover, toss and cook 2 more minutes. Remove vegetables from pan, season with salt and pepper to taste, and set aside.
  • Wipe out skillet, add olive oil and set over medium-high heat. Add salmon and season lightly with salt and pepper. Cook salmon 5 minutes per side; remove to a plate and let cool. Flake salmon into large chunks and set aside.
  • Set a sheet of puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. Gently roll out until it is large enough to fit a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate. Transfer pastry to pie plate, allowing extra dough to drape over edge.
  • Spread brown rice over bottom of pastry. Peel and chop the hard-boiled egg, then add to pie, followed by flaked salmon. Sprinkle with cheese, then bread crumbs. Mound vegetable mixture on top. Sprinkle with parsley and drizzle cream over top.
  • Roll out remaining sheet of puff pastry on a lightly floured surface until it is large enough to cover pie. Brush rim of bottom pastry with water and place second sheet of pastry directly on top. Using kitchen scissors or a paring knife, trim off excess dough. Use a fork to crimp the edges of the pie together and help the sheets of pastry adhere.
  • Cut a few small slits in the top of the pie to allow steam to escape. Brush top of pie with beaten egg. Bake until pastry is puffed and golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes.

SALMON PIE

Provided by Emeril Lagasse

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 (8-ounce) salmon fillets
Salt and freshly ground white pepper
3 cups court bouillon
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup finely chopped onions
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh dill
2 cups mashed potatoes
1 egg
1/2 cup heavy cream
Basic Savory Pie Crust, recipe follows
Flour, for dusting
3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/3 cups cold lard or solid vegetable shortening
4 to 5 tablespoons ice water

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Season the salmon with salt and white pepper. In a saute pan, add the court bouillon and bring to a simmer. Add the salmon and poach for 6 to 8 minutes. Allow the salmon to cool in the water until tepid. Remove the salmon from the pan and discard the liquid. Flake the salmon into a mixing bowl.
  • In another saute pan, heat the oil. When the oil is hot, add the onions. Season the onions with salt and white pepper. Saute for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the garlic and dill. Add the sauteed mixture to the salmon. Mix thoroughly. Add the potatoes, egg, and cream. Mix well. Season the mixture with salt and pepper.
  • Cut the pie dough into 2 halves. Lightly dust the surface with flour. Roll out each half of dough to 12-inches in diameter and about 1/8-inch thick. Fold 1 circle of dough into fourths. Carefully lift the dough and place in a 10-inch deep-dish pie pan. Unfold the pie dough and spoon the salmon mixture into the pie shell. Place the second round of dough over the salmon mixture. Using a sharp knife, cut away the excess dough. Using your fingers, crimp the edges of the pie firmly to seal the dough completely. Bake the pie for 25 to 30 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Combine the flour and salt in a bowl. Add the lard and work it in with your hands until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the water, 1 tablespoon at a time, working it in with your hands. Add only as much as you need to make a smooth ball of dough. Wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before using.

SCANDI SALMON PIE



Scandi salmon pie image

This savoury picnic slice can be assembled ready to cook up to a day before - practical and impressive!

Provided by Mary Cadogan

Categories     Dinner, Lunch, Main course, Supper

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 15

500g fresh skinless salmon fillet , cut into 2cm cubes
1 tsp each peppercorns
1 tsp fennel seeds
1 tsp golden caster sugar
1 tsp salt
3 tbsp chopped dill
140g wheatberries (raw, not pre-cooked - see tip) or spelt or pearl barley
1 small red onion , finely chopped
juice 0.5 lemon
200g baby spinach leaves
100g sundried tomatoes , chopped
140g crème fraîche
2 tsp wholegrain mustard
pack of 2 x 320g puff pastry sheets
1 egg , beaten

Steps:

  • Put the salmon in a bowl. Roughly crush the peppercorns and fennel using a pestle and mortar, then add to the salmon with the sugar, salt and half the dill. Mix well and leave to stand while you cook the wheat berries.
  • Cook the wheatberries in 4 times their volume of water for 25 mins, or following pack instructions. Drain well and leave to cool. Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6.
  • Mix the onion with the lemon juice and set aside. Put the spinach in a colander. Pour over boiling water from the kettle to wilt the leaves, then drain well, squeeze out any excess water and pat dry. Tip the spinach, onion, lemon juice and sundried tomatoes onto the wheatberries and mix.
  • Mix the crème fraîche, mustard, remaining dill and some seasoning in a small bowl. Fold through the wheatberry mixture.
  • Unwrap a sheet of puff pastry and line a 20 x 30cm rectangular flan tin. (If you are using a straight-sided tin, line the base with a strip of baking parchment.) Spoon in half the wheatberry mixture and cover with the salmon. Spread the remaining mixture evenly over the top. Brush the edges of the pastry with egg, then lay the second sheet of pastry on top. Press the pastry edges together to seal, then trim the excess.
  • Brush the top of the pastry liberally with egg, and bake for 40-45 mins until the pastry is crisp and rich golden. Leave to cool and take to the picnic in the tin covered in foil or cling film, then cut into thick slices to serve.

Tips:

  • Use a high-quality puff pastry for the crust. This will help ensure that the pie is flaky and golden brown.
  • Make sure the salmon is cooked through before adding it to the pie filling. You can check this by inserting a fork into the thickest part of the fish. If the fork comes out clean, the salmon is cooked.
  • Don't overfill the pie crust. This will prevent the filling from bubbling over and making a mess.
  • Bake the pie until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. This will usually take about 30-35 minutes.
  • Let the pie cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help the filling to set and prevent it from running out.

Conclusion:

This Scandinavian salmon cheddar pie is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of flaky puff pastry, creamy cheddar cheese, and tender salmon is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new recipe to try, give this pie a try. You won't be disappointed!
