Steps:
- Generously butter 2 (15 by 10 by 1-inch) baking (jelly roll) pans and line them with parchment paper. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Over medium heat, melt the butter in a saucepan. Whisk in the flour, cayenne, and salt. Cook 3 to 5 minutes, stirring until the center bubbles. Remove from heat, and stir in the milk. Return to heat and cook 3 to 5 minutes more, stirring continuously, until the mixture thickens. Remove from heat.
- In a large bowl, beat the egg yolks with a wire whisk. Gradually whisk in the flour mixture; beat until smooth.
- Using an electric mixer, beat the egg whites and cream of tartar until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whites into the yolks, being careful not to overmix.
- Using rubber spatula, divide the batter between the 2 pans and spread evenly. Bake 15 to 20 minutes, until the roulade springs back when touched in the center. When completely cooled, invert the roulade sheets onto a clean surface, and discard the parchment paper.
- Whip together the salmon, cream cheese, and dill, until light and fluffy. Spread the salmon mixture evenly on the surface of the roulade. Place 1 of the 15-inch roulade sides in front of you. Carefully roll it toward the other 15-inch side, until the width of the roulade forms a spiral of egg and filling. Cut each roulade into 10 slices. Refrigerate if not serving immediately.
- Spread the roulade slices out on a greased baking tray in a single layer so that the sprial is on the top and bottom of each slice. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Reheat in a preheated 350 degree oven for 8 to 10 minutes. Broil for 3 to 5 minutes, until lightly browned.
SOLE PAUPIETTE WITH CRAB AND SMOKED SALMON MOUSSELINE
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- In a food processor, combine the crab, salmon, shallots, garlic, chives and carrots. Once they are combined, slowly add the eggs and cream. Puree for 20 to 30 seconds, then remove from the processor and refrigerate for 20 to 30 minutes. Roll the sole fillet starting at the tail end to create a 'roulade' and either pipe the mouselline with a pastry bag, or stuff it with a spoon. Season the sole with salt and freshly ground black pepper and place it in a baking dish or a saute pan. Pour white wine in the dish and place it in the oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until the internal temperature is about 120 degrees. Remove from the oven and serve with Dill Beurre Blanc.
- In a small saucepan, combine all ingredients except, dill fronds, 1/2 cup of wine, cream and butter. Bring them to a simmer and reduce by a 1/3. Slowly add the cream and reduce by 1/2. Strain the liquid through a fine strainer and into a small sauce pot. With a whisk, slowly add the cubed butter into the sauce over a low heat to incorporate the butter into the sauce. (if the sauce begins to thicken too much, add a small amount of wine to re-hydrate). Whisk all the butter into the sauce and adjust for seasoning. Add the reserved dill fronds.
ALASKAN HALIBUT, SALMON AND CRAB ROULADE
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Cut halibut and salmon into appropriate weights, cover each piece with plastic wrap and pound out with flat side of a meat tenderizer, or meat mallet, to 1/4-inch thickness. In a small bowl combine crabmeat, Brie cheese, 1 tablespoon fresh chopped herbs, 1 tablespoon shallot, 1 teaspoon minced garlic and salt and pepper, to taste. Season both sides of halibut with salt, pepper and some of the fresh herbs. Lay on an individual piece of plastic wrap, twice as big as the fish piece, flesh side down. Lay salmon piece on top of halibut, directly in the middle. Season with salt and pepper. Spread 1/4th of the crab and Brie mixture in the middle of the salmon. Do this with all 4 pieces of fish. Take plastic wrap that the fish is laying on and wrap fish into a tight roll, twisting the ends to make a "tube". Refrigerate.
- Toss yams, roughly chopped garlic, thyme sprigs and olive oil in a bowl until completely coated. Season with salt and pepper. Spread evenly on a sheet pan and roast in a 350 degree F oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until tender. While yams are roasting combine Riesling and 2 tablespoons shallots in a small saucepan. Reduce by 3/4 over medium-low heat. Whisk in butter a little at a time until completely combined. Once all the butter is beaten in, remove from heat and season with salt. When yams have about 10 minutes left to finish, take fish rolls from the refrigerator and slice each roll into 3 or 5 equal sections. Remove plastic wrap after cutting and lay shingled out on well-greased sheet pan and put into oven with yams. When yams are done, fish should be done as well. While fish and yams are cooking, heat saute pan with 1 tablespoon whole butter. Once hot, drop mushrooms into pan and saute over medium-high heat until crispy and tender. Season with 1 tablespoon shallot, 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic, salt and pepper, to taste. Remove yams and fish from oven. Place a 3 or 4-inch ring mold in center of plate and fill with roasted yam hash, pressing down firmly. Remove ring mold. Place mushroom mixture on top of yam cake, allowing it to spill slightly over the side. Take fish roll and shingle in front and up yam cake, creating some height with the back piece of fish. Drizzle 1-ounce Riesling butter over front edges of fish slices. Garnish with 2 chive sprigs and serve.

Steps:
- Lay salmon slices flat. Spread each slice thickly with 2 tablespoons cream cheese. Roll up jelly roll-style into even, 1-inch thick rolls. Wrap each tightly in plastic wrap, twisting ends to make a compact package. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to firm. Using a sharp knife, cut each into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Place one round on each cucumber.
SMOKED SALMON AND KING CRAB ROULADE
Steps:
- Squeeze excess water out of the crabmeat and place in a bowl. Mix in the peppers, onions, cilantro, lemon juice, and mayonnaise. Season the mixture with chili powder, salt, and pepper, to taste.
- Lay the smoked salmon slices on top of a sheet of plastic wrap to form a 4 by 12-inch rectangle. Spread a thin layer of cream cheese over the salmon. Place the crabmeat mixture down the center of the rectangle in a long tube shape. Roll the salmon into a cylinder using the plastic wrap on the outside. Twist the plastic wrap at both ends of the cylinder to ensure that the salmon roulade is tight and compact. Tie both ends. Refrigerate the roulade for at least 2 hours before slicing.
- Slice into rounds and serve with Dilled Yogurt Sauce and Caper Tomato Relish.
- Mix all ingredients in a stainless steel bowl, season, to taste, and refrigerate.
- In a mixing bowl, combine all ingredients gently by hand. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper.
Tips:
- Use sushi-grade smoked salmon for the best flavor and texture.
- If you don't have sushi-grade smoked salmon, you can use regular smoked salmon, but be sure to cook it to an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) before using.
- Use fresh king crab meat for the best flavor and texture. If you can't find fresh king crab meat, you can use frozen king crab meat, but be sure to thaw it completely before using.
- Use a sharp knife to thinly slice the smoked salmon and king crab meat. This will help to ensure that the roulade is evenly cooked.
- Be careful not to overfill the roulade, or it will be difficult to roll and will fall apart.
- Use a parchment paper-lined baking sheet to prevent the roulade from sticking to the pan.
- Bake the roulade in a preheated oven until it is cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
- Let the roulade cool slightly before slicing and serving. This will help to keep it from falling apart.
Conclusion:
Smoked salmon and king crab roulade is a delicious and elegant appetizer or main course. It is perfect for special occasions or for a simple weeknight meal. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a dish that will impress your friends and family.
