Cream of Cauliflower with Fried Oysters and Chervil (2007x11)

Ausstrahlung: Jan 28, 2007

A savory, cold, silky smooth cauliflower flan-like custard topped with a glistening freshly shucked oyster, garnished with a large spoon of Ossetra caviar. It was amazing, as were the rest of the courses. This clip you are about to see it a sort of warm version of those same ingredients (except the caviar, but feel free to add). It’s also partly inspired by a very old fashioned soup, “oyster stew” which is simply oysters poached in milk or cream. Ingredients: 2 heads of cauliflower (about 1 1/2 pounds) 1 sliced shallot or 1/4 onion 2 clove garlic 2 tbl butter salt and pepper to taste fresh chervil 1 quart chicken stock 1/2 cup cream fresh shucked oysters seasoned flour (flour with salt, pepper, cayenne to taste) 3 whole eggs plain breadcrumbs vegetable oil for frying
