Three stars for the recipe (since it's not really a recipe), but five stars for the method. You roast the chops at high heat on a rack over a quarter-inch bed of salt to eliminate smoking. And it works! Amazing!
-
Very tasty. Used canned Centro San Marzanos. Forgot salt; fine without. Next time slice olives to distribute flavor.
-
Liked cooking shredded potatoes this way. This was good, but it could have used more punch--maybe just more garlic and pepper. A sprinkle of Parmesan wouldn't hurt any, either.
-
Made this with frozen favas from Chinatown, frozen artichoke hearts from TJ's, and frozen peas. Very tasty, especially with some grated Parmesan.
-
One of the best lobster dishes anywhere--home or out.
-
Not worth repeating--especially with expensive halibut.
-
Unfortunately, the wonderful green peppercorns recommended by breadcrumbs seem no longer to be available. Made this with Delicias brand using full amount of rinsed whole peppercorns and it was still wonderful.
-
Couldn't find Midnight Moon, but it was excellent with whatever aged goat's milk cheese I picked up at Fairway.
-
Very easy and full of flavor..
-
These were just terrific.They were a bit fussy, but because you can prepare them ahead of time, by the time you eat them you’ve forgotten anything that annoyed you during the prep. I can imagine piling these on a platter and serving them as an hors d'oeuvres. With plenty of napkins. Mmm-mmm good.
-
Probably an excellent preparation for striped bass as well.
-
Great recipe, but be careful not to over season the scallops or they will overwhelm the lovely, delicate coulis.
-
Couldn't be simpler. Definitely on the do-again list.
-
Best version of steamed fish with scallions and ginger I've ever had. Sauce is superb. Must serve with rice.
-
Can use regular chives and add one sliced garlic clove, but much better with Chinese chives if available.
-
Terrific! Recipe is easy to halve, making two generous servings.
-
Terrific vegetarian dinner as well as a side for simply grilled or roasted meat or fish. Good as leftovers, too.
-
One of the best gougeres recipes yet; even better than Zuni.
-
see reports on timing; may take quite a bit longer than stated in the book
-
Look up original recipe in NYTimes for different timing from Pepin, the originator of the dish. Or see Breadcrumbs report: http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/763221#6281797

Buttertart just kept raving about this.
