I made it. I see no reason to cook fish any other way. It was delicious and such an enjoyable meal. I served the fish on five stems of new-season asparagus. The cod flaked perfectly and the sauce was unctuously creamy. Thanks, Stephane

@ERSCAUS Год назад

Success! I made this tonight. Used Black Butter Fish. Shallots are not in season, so I finely chopped up a red onion. A local white wine. Mashed potatoes with buttermilk. Green beans with the rest of the red onion and garlic. Family is loving it. Thank you Stephane!

@mikeobrien1559 11 месяцев назад

This reminded me of my dad. He was a chow hound, in general, but he particularly liked fish. Whenever I'd go back home for a visit, he'd always ask what I wanted for food (or, "goodies", as he would say). One trip, I suggested a fish week. That lit him up.🤣 Turbot and halibut were included (his two favorites). I don't recall the rest, but I know we had Maine lobster on Friday. If he were alive today, I'd make this for him. Thanks for the memory.🙏🏻

Elegance is simple. Delightful, as usual from you .

@The.Ghost.of.Tom.Joad. Год назад

Great recipe. I've been poaching fish like this for years but baking it off. Because that's what I learned working as a line cook in an upscale restaurant (well, upscale for Columbus, OH in the mid '80s) during college. From now on, I'm going to simplify the process and poach on the stove top thanks to you. Regardless, the core recipe is very flexible. We eat a lot of fish--once or twice per week---poaching fish several times a month. Here are some variations I've used over the years. -Instead of just shallots poached raw, sautee onions, carrots, and celery until soft (called a mirepoix) before adding the wine and fish. -Instead of cream, use butter and lemon for s sauce that pops. -Clam juice makes a serviceable substitute for fish stock. You use so little for poaching, I'll often split a can into 3 parts (1 for today, 2 for later) and freeze what I don't use in ice cube trays for use next time I make the dish. -Don't have cream? Reserve everything on the plate, including the liquid, and create a roux using equal parts butter and flour, cook off the raw flour taste, an add milk, cooking until it thickens. And then add the reserved sauce back in, and finish the sauce as shown in the vid. -Instead of boring old parsley, use tarragon or dill. -Etc, etc, etc. .

@LAChantrose Год назад

You should start a cooking channel. Seriously. I'm gonna use that clam juice trick, I can never find fish stock.

@The.Ghost.of.Tom.Joad. Год назад

@@LAChantrose Thanks for the vote of confidence. But it's probably not in the cards. Because my PC lacks the RAM and disc storage necessary because I'd want heavily edited videos. I tried, but for other, not-cooking things. But most importantly, with this French Cooking Academy guy, Jacques Pepin, Alton Brown, etc. available on RU-vid, I doubt some middle-aged dude cooking for himself and his girlfriend (and occasionally his college-aged kids) in flyover America would have much pull! Oh. And there's that pesky paycheck thing and lack of time to do much else besides work and live. :-)

@d.kleiser9514 9 дней назад

This turned out very well! (we used Flounder) We usually bake or pan fry fish. The sauce here was a step up. Also was more moist and the flavor was very good.

@Yoganature101 Год назад

Thanks for the encouragement to poach. I have got into the habit of flash sautéing both sides, removing and continuing as per your method here. I wish my dad was still alive for me to make this for him. He loved simple poached fish but I never made it because I didn’t know how to do it back then. 🙏🏼🧡 🇫🇷

@Topholm97 Год назад

I love this kind of fish101-video where you show a core technique which when learned can be expanded upon with many different flavours. I would love to see more basic techniques like this one because i like to play with the flavours seeing where it'll go once i feel like i can manage the basics properly.

@jonathanrobertson3406 Год назад

Well said. The beauty of French cooking (as well as many others, I am sure), is that it is built on core techniques. Once you learn how to make a proper pan sauce, for example, you have also learned how to make potentially hundreds of other pans sauces. Same with soup, etc.

@billwatters4833 10 дней назад

I have a couple of cod loin fillets but they're frozen. I have been looking at how to cook frozen fish and it seems it would be suitable for your poached recipe. So I will try it today and serve it with masked potato and the new season asparagus. I have a Muscadet white wine and I thought to add a splash of white vermouth. Thanks for the recipe, Stephane. You and that crazy Chef Jean-Pierre are my go-to sources for recipes.

@markslade3076 11 дней назад

This is exactly what I'm trying to achieve with my fish cooking. Will try this method. I usually cook my fish in the oven in foil with butter and herbs and make the sauce seperate. But my beurre blanc has a tendency to split and has a strange consistency to it. I've got it right a few times but just want that consistency like this. Thank you for the videos. Learn loads from them. Will be ordering your book too 👍

@Bravo21 Год назад

Beautiful, thank you Chef. If you will allow me, I would like to add a fool-proof technique for Grilled Fish that I learned from a Chef in New Orleans. This if for fresh fish fillets, the full side, with the skin on. The fish I use this for is mostly Snapper, Red Fish and Grouper, but it will work for any scaled Fillet. *** Do Not Scale The Fish! *** The Scales are in direct contact with the grill and the skin acts as the pan - the Scales will not stick to the grill. With the Scale/skin side down, cover the flesh with a generous measure of melted butter. Use a brush as you want complete and uniform coverage _ a butter flavored with Garlic or the herbs of your choice can be used as well, do as you like. Next cover the flesh generously with fine bread crumbs _ seasoned bread crumbs are what I use. You want a complete and uniform layer here, no thin patches. And that is it _ Prep is done. Now place the Fillet directly on a grill, Scales and skin side down over medium heat. If it's over the coals, make sure it is not too close. Close the lid and let the fish cook about 15min for a 3-4lb Fillet, a bit less or more depending on size. As it cooks the flesh will 'Plump Up' and release from the skin. If it has not released, close the lid and let to cook another minute or two until it does. When done, remove the Fillet from the grill, the flesh will easily lift away from the skin and it is ready to serve. That's it, as easy as can be _ the fish is done, add a squeeze of lemon and a drizzle of melted butter to finish and dinner is served. I learned this technique over 30years ago and have used it to cook countless fish _ it never fails. The fish is always moist and delicious. Thanks again Stephane, Your channel is a well of information and always a delight. Appreciate everything you do.

@FrenchCookingAcademy Год назад

thanks for sharing we need more fish tips around 👍🙂

@Bravo21 Год назад

@@FrenchCookingAcademy The pleasure is mine Chef. I should have added that I usually place the fillet on a flat cookie sheet, pat dry with a paper towel and remove the lateral bones with pliers before adding the butter and breadcrumbs _ This makes clean up a snap and you can then easily slide the fillet onto the grill. Sorry, I'm not used to writing recipes. And please, let me know how it works for you.

I would make the sauce more thicker and just pour the thick sauce across the fish fillet and some on the side. When put the fish in the sauce pan, I would not give the fish a bath either.

Hello Stephane- Subscriber here. Tried this tonight with what I had on hand; the recipe is very forgiving with substitutions. Used frozen individual cod fillets. When thawed, each one produced a small amount of “fish stock” that worked with the vermouth. Had to use half-n-half in place of cream, everything else was as per the recipe. I admit to overcooking the fillets a bit (they were thin), but the sauce made up for it! Thank you for taking the time to educate us all in French cooking!

@matthewhoney362 7 месяцев назад

Tried this for a third time tonight. The first two times I overcooked the fish but the sauce always made up for it. Tonight I got it spot on. Possibly the first time since I started cooking with the help of ebay videos that I would have paid to eat my own cooking in a restaurant. Thank you.

@jonathanrobertson3406 Год назад

Thanks! Fish and Poaching are one of the last "undiscovered countries of the culinary world" for me, so this was educational and inspirational. Unfortunately, a proper Fumet de Poisson is very hard to create in my neck of the woods. All of my culinary education comes from books, and the ideal ingredient is basically fresh fish heads. Good luck getting that around here. But, any chef worth his salt can improvise. And poaching... that other half of the equation, is something I've never really tackled. Thanks for the excellent video as well as the inspiration. Best regards.
