Tarragon Chive Potato Bread Recipes

Steps:

• Peel potatoes and halve lengthwise.
• Bring potatoes, water, oil, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper to a simmer in a 10-inch nonstick skillet, then cover and briskly simmer, shaking skillet occasionally, until potatoes are tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove lid and cook, stirring gently, until most of water has evaporated and potatoes are glazed, 1 to 2 minutes more. Stir in herbs.

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a pot and cover with cold water. Salt, then bring to a boil, and cook until tender. Cook's Note: The time required will depend on the size of the potatoes. When they are fork tender, drain, peel, and slice into a bowl. Pour over the white wine and mix until absorbed.
• While the potatoes cook, put the shallots into a small bowl and pour over the red wine vinegar. Leave to macerate 5 minute. Drain thoroughly. Add the shallots, tarragon, and chives to the potatoes.
• Stir the mustard into the oil, and pour over the potatoes. Season the mixture with salt and pepper. Toss, and serve.

Steps:

• *Cook's Note: You will need half of the herbs when you start the recipe and half in 2 weeks. It is best to purchase the second half of the herbs when they are needed.
• If using pint jars for storage, you will need 3 jars. If using small wine bottles, each holds approximately 13 ounces; therefore, you will need 4 bottles.
• Put the water and bleach in a large container. Dunk 12 sprigs of tarragon and 12 chive shoots in the solution, and then rinse in cold water. Pat dry.
• Heat the vinegar in a large saucepan over medium-high heat, and heat until vinegar reaches 190 degrees F. Place the herbs in a container large enough to hold the vinegar. Pour the vinegar over the herbs, and after the vinegar has cooled, place the lid on the container. Set in a cool dark place for 2 weeks.
• After 2 weeks, sanitize the second half of the herbs as previously, rinse, pat dry, and set aside.
• Sterilize the containers and lids that you will store the vinegar in by immersing them in a large pot of boiling water and boiling for 10 minutes. If using corks, purchase pre-sterilized corks, and then dip them in and out of boiling water 3 to 4 times.
• Discard the old herbs. Strain the vinegar through a sanitized colander or funnel lined with cheesecloth. Divide the fresh herbs among the containers and pour the vinegar over them. Seal and refrigerate. The vinegar may be stored at room temperature for 5 to 6 weeks or in the refrigerator for up to 6 months.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Place the potato pieces in a medium-sized tupperware container and add all other ingredients. Secure lid on container and shake until well combined.
• Dump out onto an ungreased cookie sheet and spread out into a single layer.
• Roast for 20 minutes and turn the potato pieces. Roast for another 15-20 minutes or until potatoes are cooked through and lightly browned.

Steps:

• Rub the bottom of a large saucepan with the butter. Add the scallions and the fish (folding the fillets in half if they are thin and long to approximate the thickness indicated here so they will cook in about the same length of time). Add 1/2 teaspoon of the salt, pepper and wine. Bring to a boil over high heat, cover, reduce the heat to low, and boil gently for 3 minutes.
• With the lid held slightly ajar on the pan so the fish don't fall out, pour the cooking juices into another saucepan. Add the cream to the juices, stir in the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, and bring the mixture to a boil. Boil 1 minute, add the dissolved potato starch and return to a boil. Remove from the heat and stir in the tarragon and chives.
• To serve, spoon polenta (see recipe) onto six individual plates. Arrange fish fillets on top of polenta and spoon some tarragon sauce on top.
