Description
 This simple and delicious soup opened Annette's Ritzy birthday dinner 2012, to great acclaim. The flavors are simple and go perfectly together.
Ingredients
| 2 | c | Fish Stock | | 1 | lb | Bay Scallops (Cape Cod or Nantucket) | | 2 | T | Butter (Unsalted) | | 1⁄2 | c | Onion (diced) | | 3⁄4 | c | carrots (diced) | | 8 | ea | Saffron threads (crumbled) | | 2 | c | Cream (Jersey) | | 1⁄4 | c | Dry Vermouth | | 1 | T | Chives (chopped, for garnish) |
Instructions
- Bring the Fish Stock to a simmer, and poach the scallops for a minute. Then drain the scallops and set aside. Let the stock continue to simmer.
- In a heavy saucepan, melt the butter and saute the carrots and onions about 15 minutes.
- Add the saffron and the stock to the vegetables and simmer another 15 minutes, until the vegetables are tender.
- Puree the stock and vegetables until smooth. Return to the saucepan.
- Stir the cream into the puree. season with salt and white pepper as needed. Keep warm but do not boil.
- Heat the dry vermouth to a boil in a small pan, then stir the bay scallops into it to warm them through.
- Stir the scallops and vermouth into the soup, garnish with chopped chives and serve immediately.
Notes
The original recipe called for sea scallops poached 3-4 minutes, then sliced, it had the cream added before blending, and it was double this recipe. I find this method more practical for the smaller volume.
