Steamed Broccoli With Ricotta Beer And Chive Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Place the broccoli florets in a vegetable steamer basket.
• Pour about 3/4-inch water into a large saucepan. Place the steamer basket in the pan, bring the water to a simmer over medium-high heat, and cover. Steam for 5 minutes, or until the broccoli is crisp-tender. Transfer to a serving bowl and season with salt and pepper.
• Meanwhile, place the center of the bread into a food processor and pulse to make bread crumbs. In a small saucepan, heat butter on medium high until butter turns a nutty brown color. Add the bread crumbs and toss in the butter. Pour the buttered crumbs onto the broccoli and toss to coat.

Steps:

• Fold all ingredients together in a mixing bowl.

Steps:

• Make the sauce: Slice shallots, saute with butter and add white wine. Cook total reduction, add fish stock, and reduce to 1/2. Add heavy cream. Blend with 2 ounces of butter; add the soy, salt and pepper to taste. Keep warm.
• Make the garnish: Slice the onion, dredge in flour. Shake off excess and fry until golden brown. Keep warm on a paper towel. Cut the scallion and saute with olive oil. Mix with the whipped potatoes. Salt and pepper to taste. Keep warm. Peel, de-seed and dice tomatoes. Cut chives.
• Progression: Saute the bass with olive oil, salt and pepper to taste. When thoroughly cooked squeeze lemon juice on fish.
• Ready to eat: To serve, place some whipped potatoes on the center of the plate. Add tomatoes and chives to the sauce, place around the potatoes. Place the fish on the potatoes and top with fried onions. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Marinate a 1-pound hanger steak (center sinew removed) in a mix of 1 cup red wine vinegar, 1/3 cup cognac, 1/2 cup olive oil, 1 minced shallot, 2 tablespoons chopped rosemary, 4 chopped garlic cloves, 2 tablespoons sugar, and pepper to taste for up to 6 hours. Preheat a grill to medium-high on one side. Remove the steak from the marinade; pat dry and season with coarse sea salt and pepper. Sear over direct heat until marked, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to the cooler side; cover and cook until the meat reaches 130 for medium-rare, about 10 minutes. Let rest 5 minutes before slicing. To make the sauce, blanch 1 bunch chives in simmering water for 3 minutes, then rinse under cold water and squeeze dry. Puree with 1 cup sour cream, 3 tablespoons horseradish and a pinch of salt.

Steps:

• Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add broccoli, cover, and steam until tender, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Mix steamed broccoli, bacon, butter, salt, and pepper together in a bowl.
