Potato Crepes With Scallops Salmon & Asparagu Recipe


Ingredients

1/2 lb fresh asparagus
1 tbsp dry white wine
1/2 tsp cornstarch
1 egg white
1/8 tsp white pepper
1/4 lb scallops
1/4 lb salmon filet
1 potato crepes (see recipe)
1 1/2 cup peanut oil
1 tsp minced fresh ginger
1 tbsp minced green onion
1/8 tsp white pepper
1/2 cup chicken stock
2 tsp soy sauce
1/2 tsp rice vinegar
1/4 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp cornstarch dissolved in 1 teaspoon, water


Directions

Starting at the tip end, cut the asparagus into 1 1/2-inch lengths
with a diagonal rolling cut: slice off the tip at an angle, roll the
asparagus about a quarter turn and cut again, and repeat on down the
stalk until you reach the tougher base. Discard the bases. Dissolve
the cornstarch in the wine in a medium bowl; add the egg white and
pepper and beat lightly. Remove the tough white muscle from the edge
of each scallop and cut the scallops into 1/4-inch-thick discs.
Remove any pin bones from the salmon and slice across the width of
the slice (parallel to the backbone) into 1/4-inch-thick rectangles.
Add the salmon and scallops to the egg mixture and toss gently to
coat. Preheat the oven to 175F and set 2 dinner plates in it to warm.
Prepare the Potato Crepes and place 1 on each plate. Keep warm in the
oven. Have a clean, dry, heatproof container, such as a saucepan, on
the stove with a heat proof sieve on top. Drain the scallops and
salmon and discard the marinade. Heat a wok or deep skillet over high
heat. When it begins to smoke, add the oil. Wait 30 seconds, then add
the seafood (the oil will not be very hot yet; this is intentional).
Cook, stirring gently to separate the pieces, until salmon has lost
its raw color. Pour the contents of the wok into the sieve. Return
the wok to the heat, and in the bit of oil clinging to the pan,
stir-fry the ginger and green onion until fragrant. Add the pepper
and asparagus and stir-fry until it begins to brown. Add the chicken
stock, soy sauce, vinegar and sugar. Cover, and cook until the
asparagus is crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes depending on size. Remove
the cover, return the seafood to the wok, and stir in the cornstarch
mixture. Cook until the sauce is slightly thickened. Taste for
seasoning and adjust if necessary, then divide the seafood, asparagus
and sauce over the potato crepes. Serve immediately Serves 2. From
the San Francisco Chronicle, 2/13/91. Note that the potato pancakes
require the potatoes to be cooked and cooled ahead of time, which can
be done earlier in the day or the night before. Posted by Stephen

The History of Recipes

It is quite possible to prove the history of transcribed cooking instructions far back into the far past, at least as far into history as ancient Egypt, and maybe further still. Having said that, generally, these old cookbooks were just basic hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for meal preparation.

As we move into The time of the romans 25BC a roman called Apicius created some documents detailing recipes cooked by his fellow Romans. In his works, he tells us how the roman meals were separated into appetizers, main meal and afters, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. This early Roman chef tells us how the ancient chefs used a good variety of herbs, including many that are still in use today like bay, mint and parsley.

Later, in the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought back many spices and herbs from the Middle-East, including basil and coriander. These new foods and spices created an explosion in manuscripts on cookery, the majority of which are now in academic collections.

Like it or not, the introduction of TV gave us TV cookery programs and the recipe books that accompanied them.

Which brings us neatly up to date and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting us all to access thousands of recipes such as those found on this web site.
