How to make it
Maine Scallop Mousse
- Preheat oven to 300º.
- In a food processor, blend scallops and cream quickly until smooth.
- Season mix with salt, nutmeg and white pepper.
- Remove mix from food processor and place in a bowl.
- Reserve. In a separate stainless steel bowl, whip egg whites until slightly firm but not stiff.
- Fold egg whites gently into scallop mixture.
- Once combined, place mix into 1” buttered ramekins.
- Place ramekins in a high-sided baking dish, and fill pan halfway with hot water.
- Bake in oven for 10 to 15 minutes.
Langoustine Bouillon
- Clean langoustines by separating heads and tails and deveining. Set aside.
- Cut carrots, celery and onion in cubes. In a heavy pot with 2 liters of water, place langoustines, vegetables, orange segments, cloves and bay leaf.
- Bring to a boil and cook on medium low heat for 20 minutes. Strain and reserve the stock. Keep langoustines.
- In a pan, sauté langoustines with olive oil, salt and pepper. Do not overcook. Reserve. Return stock to heat and add butter. Using a hand mixer, blend stock and butter on the surface until it foams. Keep on low heat.
