Salmon in Parchment Paper

Serves 6

This is an excellent way to cook fish so that it stays tender and moist, with a light, delicate flavor. Its French name is Saumon en Papillote.

Ingredients

5 celery stalks, sliced
4 shallots, sliced
Bunch of flat-leaf parsley, chopped
Sea salt, to taste
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
6 (5- to 6-ounce) skinless salmon fillets
1 lemon, cut into 6 wedges

Instructions

Heat the oven to 400°F. Cut six 10-inch rounds out of baking parchment. Put the celery and shallots in a bowl, add the parsley, salt, and pepper and mix well. Arrange the paper rounds on the work surface. Place equal amounts of the vegetable mixture in the center of each paper and top with a salmon fillet and a wedge of lemon. Close up each parcel, securing the contents by twisting the paper above the fish like an old-fashioned purse. Place on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes. Serve in the paper parcels, but take care when opening, as hot steam may rush out.


Vianne's Spiced Hot Chocolate

Serves 2

Chile may have lost favor as air ingredient in chocolate dishes in Europe, but for me this sweet, spiced version of hot chocolate is the best morning drink: rich, (lark, and invigorating enough to keep me going until lunchtime.

Ingredients 1 2/3 cups milk
1/2 vanilla bean, cut in half lengthwise
1/2 cinnamon stick
1 hot red chile, halved and seeded
3 1/2 ounces bittersweet (70 percent) chocolate
Brown sugar to taste (optional)
Whipped cream, chocolate curls, cognac, or Amaretto, to serve

Instructions

Place the milk in a saucepan, add the vanilla bean, cinnamon stick, and chile, and gently bring it to a shivering simmer for 1 minute. Grate the chocolate and whisk it in until it melts. If you must, then add brown sugar, but do try without it. Take off the heat and allow it to infuse for 10 minutes, then remove the vanilla, cinnamon, and chile. Return to the heat and bring gently back to a simmer. Serve in mugs topped with whipped cream, chocolate curls, or a dash of cognac or Amaretto.

    A Taste of France wins twice over with fresh & simple recipes accompanied by a visual feast of photos.

    Simple, fresh ingredients, easy to follow recipes, excellent results. This is simply a beautiful book. The photography corresponds beautifully the recipes. Every recipe I have tried was delicious and rated rave reviews from guests. The blueberry tart is to die for. Reading Joanne Harris' fiction lead me to this book and what an exceptional find it was!
