Brioche-Crusted Salmon

Level: Easy
Total: 20 min
Active: 20 min
Yield: 4 servings

This technique of crowning salmon with buttery brioche was borrowed from Laurent Gras, who was a leading chef in Chicago when he popularized it using sourdough. It’s so much fun to play around with. As long as you slice the bread thinly enough, you don’t need to use any binder, since the protein from the fish allows it to stick all by itself. I especially like using salmon, because it tends to release all of that white albumin. It’s the perfect glue for toasty brioche bread, which also keeps it from pooling unappealingly on the plate.

Ingredients

4 skinless salmon fillets (8 ounces each)
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 loaf brioche, unsliced
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
1 garlic clove, crushed
2 or 3 sprigs of thyme

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F with a rack in the center position. Season the salmon fillets with the salt and set aside.

Using a serrated knife, trim away the crust from the sides of the brioche loaf, then make 4 long lengthwise slices that are about 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick. Lay a slice of brioche on a cutting board and place a salmon fillet lengthwise in the center; it should fall within the border of the crust. Use your knife to trim away the bread around the salmon. It’s best to hold the knife flat against the edges of the salmon and press straight down (using the same motion as with a cookie cutter) to get an even cutout around the fish. Repeat with the remaining fillets and brioche slices, setting the finished fillets brioche-side down on a plate or tray.

Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Put in the oil and butter; when the butter begins to bubble and foam, gently place the salmon, brioche-side down, in the pan. Work in batches if you can’t fit all the fillets in the pan at once. Shake the pan a little to make sure the brioche is not sticking, then scatter the garlic and thyme sprigs around the fish. Cook, swirling the pan occasionally and basting the oil-butter mixture over the fish with a spoon, until the bread is golden brown, about 1 minute.

Flip the fillets brioche-side up, transfer the pan to the center oven rack and bake for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through but still has a touch of dark pink inside (about 145 degrees F). Keep in mind, it will continue cooking a little even after you remove it from the oven!

Blot the fish with a paper towel and transfer to plates, brioche-side up. Serve immediately.

Cook’s Note
To make ahead: Complete the recipe through toasting the brioche on the stovetop, then transfer the fish, brioche-side up, to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Keep at room temperature for up to an hour, or refrigerate for up to 4 hours, uncovered. When you’re ready to cook, place the fish in a 375 degrees F oven and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side.

Steakhouse Burgers
RECIPE COURTESY OF KARDEA BROWN
Level: Intermediate
Total: 1 hr 5 min
Active: 1 hr 5 min
Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Canola oil, for frying
8 slices thick-cut bacon
1/2 medium red onion, sliced into 1/4-inch rings
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 cup flour
1 teaspoon House Seasoning, recipe follows
2 pounds 80/20 ground beef
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 head iceberg lettuce, cut into 1/2-inch slices
1/2 cup to 1 cup Blue Cheese Dressing, recipe follows
4 brioche buns
4 large cherry tomatoes

House Seasoning:
1/4 cup garlic powder
1/4 cup onion powder
1/4 cup sweet paprika
1/4 cup kosher salt
1/4 cup freshly ground black pepper

Blue Cheese Dressing:
2/3 cup buttermilk
2/3 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons minced chives
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 cup crumbled blue cheese

Directions

Special equipment: a meat thermometer

Heat 2 inches of oil over medium-high heat in a medium heavy-bottomed saucepan to 365 degrees F.

While the oil is heating, add the bacon to a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook until crispy and brown on both sides, about 10 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate. Reserve 2 tablespoons bacon fat in a small bowl and set aside to cool.

Place the onions in the buttermilk. Add the flour to a bowl or shallow baking dish. Scoop out a few onions at a time and dredge in the flour, shaking to remove any excess flour. Add to the hot oil and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 4 minutes, then remove to a baking sheet with a wire rack and sprinkle with House Seasoning while still hot. Repeat with the remaining onions and set aside.
Using your hands, mix the ground beef along with the cooled, reserved bacon fat and the garlic powder. Form the mixture into 4 loosely packed equal-sized patties with a slight dimple in the center to prevent them from doming. Place onto a baking sheet or large plate and sprinkle both sides of each patty generously with salt and pepper. Heat the skillet that was used to cook the bacon over medium heat. Add the burger patties, dimple side up, and cook on the first side, 5 to 6 minutes. Flip the patties and cook until the internal temperature of the burger is 135 to 140 degrees F for medium (the internal temperature will continue to rise when you remove the burger from heat to reach the ideal temperature of 145 degrees F), about 5 minutes more. Remove the patties from the skillet.
Add the brioche buns to the same skillet and toast until lightly browned.

To build the burgers, add one patty on top of a toasted brioche bun half. Drizzle over a couple tablespoons of the Blue Cheese Dressing. Top with a few fried onions, a slice of iceberg lettuce, another drizzle of Blue Cheese Dressing and two slices bacon. Top with the second half of the bun and place a cherry tomato on top, using a steak knife as a skewer to hold the burger together. Serve immediately.

House Seasoning:
Yield: 1 1/4 cups
Stir together the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Keep in an airtight container for up to 6 months.

Blue Cheese Dressing:
Yield: 1 1/2 cups
Whisk together the buttermilk, sour cream, minced chives, garlic salt and black pepper in a small bowl until well combined. Stir in the blue cheese crumbles. Refrigerate until ready to use.
