| Looking for recipes on sauces that compliment fish Posted by JasonL79 I'm looking for some good fish sauce recipes. I have never been one to use sauces on fish because it can overpower the fish but lately I have been experimenting with some out of my Besh cookbook just to try something different. One was fresh squeezed oranges and olive oil with some seasonings and the other was fresh squeezed oranges and butter with some seasonings. I definitely liked both because I found them to be lighter sauces but still good. I have also cooked some heavier sauces in the past that used heavy cream,sour cream,etc and even some small shrimp in it to top it off. Anyway, if anyone has any good recipes maybe they can post them here to give me some new ideas. This post was edited on 5/9 at 9:14 am Reply Back to Top |

| I have a few recipes I need to dig up given to me by a Jamaican buddy of mine. We became fast friends when he stopped some guys w/ a cart of gutted fish and he scolded them for tossing away good meat. That night he boiled the carcuses and made the best fish stew I had ever eaten. Reply Back to Top |

quote: Does anyone have any recipes for this or the ratio/breakdown of the ingredients? I've seen this sauce done but was just wondering how everyone else prepares it. I found a cool looking one online by Emeril. It's a citrus beurre blanc : quote: Reply Back to Top |

quote:One of the best/easy sauces for allowing the fish to still be the main flavor in the dish. Classic buerre blanc does not use cream(I do though). I generally just use lemon or orange zest and don't bother with the whole peppercorns or herbs if I'm going for easy. I just use white pepper to keep the sauce "pretty". Reply Back to Top |

| Just not a good mix of flavors for me. Maybe you'll like it though. Reply Back to Top |
| Learn how to make a beurre blanc ( which is a mother sauce) by adding different ingredients to it the sauce can be tailored to the fish being used, and the method of cooking utilized. The method for producing the base is to finely dice shallots(the tiny onions not green) in an equal mix of white wine and white wine vinegar, reduce this to a point that is called au sec(there is so little moisture left that the shallots basically dance in the pot) after the reduction cook on low, to this is added room temp butter pats while being whisked into the pot. When all of the butter is in, then half and half is added, then a bit of lemon juice, salt, and cayenne is added. After that you play with the additives. ETA my ratios were done for commercial use so the butter was scaled in pounds. This post was edited on 5/9 at 10:15 am Reply Back to Top |
