Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Soups, Stews & Stocks     Soup Recipes

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 Vidalia onion, coarsely chopped (about 2 1/2 cups)
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1 large parsnip, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces (about 2 1/4 cups)
1/2 small rutabaga, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces (about 1 3/4 cups)
1 small celery root, peeled and coarsely chopped (about 2 1/2 cups)
2 thyme sprigs
2 cans (14.5 ounces each) chicken broth
2 oranges, such as navel and Cara Cara
3/4 teaspoon freshly grated peeled ginger
1/2 cup water, plus more if needed
Fresh tarragon leaves, for garnish

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion and 3/4 teaspoon salt, and cook until onion is softened, about 6 minutes (do not let brown). Add parsnip, rutabaga, celery root, thyme, and broth. Bring to a boil, and reduce heat. Cover, and simmer until vegetables are tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Discard thyme. Puree soup in batches in a blender until smooth (fill blender only halfway), and transfer to a clean pot.
  • Finely grate enough peel of 1 orange to yield 1/2 teaspoon zest. Working over a bowl, cut segments of orange free of membranes, and set aside. Squeeze juice from membranes into a bowl, then squeeze enough juice from remaining orange to yield 1 cup total. Just before serving, reheat to warm. Stir in orange zest, juice, ginger, and water, plus more to thin to desired consistency. Season with salt, and garnish with orange segments, tarragon, and pepper.

Categories     dinner, project, main course

Time 4h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 whole turbot, 3 pounds each, or other firm, white-fleshed fish
1 medium onion, peeled
4 shallots, peeled
3 medium carrots, peeled
3 leeks, well washed, outer greens and coarse green ends removed
2 stalks celery
2 medium tomatoes
2 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed
15 white peppercorns
Pinch cayenne
1 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup white vinegar
2 bunches tarragon
1 sprig rosemary
1 sprig basil
1 sprig mint
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Have a fishmonger fillet and skin the turbot, then save and chop the bones for you. Rinse bones for 1 hour under cold running water.
  • Roughly chop half of the onion, shallots, carrots, leeks, celery and tomatoes. Julienne the remaining onions, shallots and leeks. Thinly slice the remaining carrots and celery. Peel, seed and dice the remaining tomato.
  • Fill a stockpot halfway with water and bring to a boil. Add the fish bones and blanch for 2 minutes. Drain, rinse and return them to the pot with 2 quarts water. Boil, lower the heat and simmer, uncovered, 20 minutes.
  • Strain the stock through a fine-mesh sieve, discard the bones and return stock to the pot. Add the roughly chopped vegetables, garlic, white peppercorns and cayenne and bring to a boil. Simmer for 45 minutes, skimming the foam off the top. Add the wine and vinegar; simmer 15 minutes more.
  • Strain the stock, discarding solids. Return stock to the pan and add 1 1/2 bunches of the tarragon and the rosemary, basil and mint. Cover the pot and set aside to infuse for at least a half-hour.
  • Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and add the remaining vegetables. Cook until just tender, about 3 minutes, then plunge them into cold water to stop the cooking. Drain and set aside.
  • Reserve 4 small sprigs of tarragon for garnish and chop the rest. Set aside.
  • Season the fish with salt and pepper. Strain the stock, discarding the herbs. In a deep skillet, heat the broth. When just simmering, add the fillets. Cook for 3 minutes; turn and cook until opaque throughout, about 3 more minutes. Remove the fillets and keep warm.
  • Add the cooked vegetables to the hot broth and heat them. Swirl in the butter and add the chopped tarragon. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Place the fillets in four soup bowls and spoon the tarragon broth and vegetables over them. Add the tarragon sprigs and serve.

TARRAGON VEGETABLE BROTH



Tarragon Vegetable Broth image

An incredibly good, pale salmon-colored vegetable broth originally used to poach halibut. It has many uses though; in any recipe that calls for broth, as a clear soup with crusty bread, as the liquid to cook rice in, as a soup base, etc. If you don't like tarragon or thyme, switch the herbs. If you're on the fence, give the thyme and tarragon a try, it's terrific.

Tips:

  • Use fresh vegetables: Fresh vegetables will give your broth the best flavor. If you don't have fresh vegetables on hand, you can use frozen or canned vegetables, but the flavor will not be as good.
  • Roast your vegetables before adding them to the broth: Roasting vegetables brings out their natural sweetness and flavor. To roast vegetables, simply toss them with a little olive oil and salt and pepper, and then roast them in a preheated oven at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for about 20 minutes.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: The more variety of vegetables you use, the more flavorful your broth will be. Some good vegetables to use include carrots, celery, onions, leeks, garlic, fennel, parsnips, turnips, and rutabagas.
  • Add herbs and spices: Herbs and spices can add a lot of flavor to your broth. Some good herbs and spices to use include thyme, rosemary, sage, bay leaves, peppercorns, and juniper berries.
  • Simmer your broth for at least 30 minutes: The longer you simmer your broth, the more flavor it will have. Simmer your broth for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours.
  • Strain your broth before using it: Straining your broth will remove any solids, such as vegetable pieces or herbs. You can use a fine-mesh strainer or a cheesecloth-lined colander.

Conclusion:

Tarragon vegetable broth is a delicious and versatile ingredient that can be used in a variety of dishes. It is a great way to add flavor and nutrition to your soups, stews, and casseroles. You can also use it as a base for sauces and gravies. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make your own tarragon vegetable broth at home.
