Instructions
 

Corn Puree

  • In a rondeau saute onion in clarified butter until soft, then add the garlic and corn and saute until soft for about 30 minutes on low heat.
  • Add the heavy cream and simmer until reduced by half.
  • Stir frequently to prevent corn and onion from caramelizing on the bottom of the pan.
  • Once it has reduced by half, vitamix the corn mix on high and strain through chinois. Season with salt and lemon juice.

Corn Sabayon

  • Set up a double boiler for this procedure.
  • Warm corn puree over the double boiler.
  • In a large separate bowl whisk egg yolks and temper in the corn puree.
  • Once tempered, place over double boiler and whisk the sabayon over the double boiler until emulsified. It will be thick enough once slightly beyond nappe.
  • Adjust seasoning with salt and lemon juice as needed.
  • Transfer sabayon to ISI siphon and charge with two cream charges.
  • Hold in water bath at 58C.

Smoked Trout Gravlax

  • Pour the gin evenly over the trout. Combine kosher salt, sugar, and peppercorns together in a small bowl.
  • Spread the mixture evenly over the entire surface of the trout.
  • Cover fillet with plastic wrap and place another 1/3 pan on top. Weigh down 1/3 pan to press trout.
  • Cure refrigerated trout overnight.
  • The next day remove the trout, wash off the cure and place back in the third pan.
  • Cover tightly with plastic wrap and pump full of smoke using the Aladdin smoking gun.
  • Return to walkin and let sit until all of the smoke has dissipated and been absorbed, about 3 hours.
  • Skin fillet and small dice trout.

Hard Boiled Eggs

  • Place eggs in a saucepot large enough to cover with water by one inch.
  • Heat over high until boiling.
  • Remove from burner, cover, and let eggs stand in water for 12 minutes.
  • Prepare an ice bath. Shock, and peel.
  • Cut eggs into small dice.

Deviled Egg

  • Slice chive on an extreme bias to create garnish. 1 cm long pieces for the garnish.
  • Heat trout gravlax and deviled egg until just warm to the touch.
  • Fill egg cup half way with corn sabayon, add the warmed egg and trout.
  • Fill the egg cup again with sabayon, tap gently until sabayon falls slightly.
  • Top off again with sabayon.
  • Dust with pimenton on top to garnish.
  • Finish with a small amount of trout roe and chive garnish.
