SALMON GEFILTE FISH MOLD WITH HORSERADISH AND BEET SAUCE

Steps:

• Have your fish store grind the fillets or pulse them yourself, one at a time, in a food processor or meat grinder. If using a food processor, pulse the fish in short bursts, being careful not to purée the fish-you want some texture. Preheat the oven to 325°F. Grease a 12-cup Bundt pan and fill a larger pan (such as a large Pyrex dish) with 2 inches of hot water.
• In a large pan over medium-high heat, sauté the diced onions in the oil for about 5 minutes, until soft and transparent but not brown. Set aside to cool.
• Put the fish, onions, eggs, 2 cups (470 ml) water, matzo meal, carrots, 4 tablespoons dill, salt, pepper, mustard, and sugar in the bowl of a standing mixer equipped with a flat beater. Beat at medium speed for 10 minutes.
• Pour the mixture into the Bundt or tube pan, then put the pan inside the larger water-filled dish (called a bain-marie). Smooth the top with a spatula. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 1 hour, or until the center is solid. Remove the Bundt or tube pan from the water dish, then allow the terrine to cool slightly for at least 20 minutes. Slide a long knife around the outer and inner edges of the Bundt or tube pan, then carefully invert the terrine onto a flat serving plate.
• Refrigerate for several hours or overnight. If any water accumulates on the serving dish, carefully drain it away before serving. Slice the terrine as you would a torte and serve as an appetizer, garnished with parsley and dill and served with Horseradish and Beet Sauce. Leftovers keep for up to 5 days.

HORSERADISH AND BEET SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 350°F. Rub the whole beets with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and wrap in foil. Bake the beets for about an hour or until tender in the center when pierced with a knife. Remove from the oven, allow to cool, then peel and cut into large chunks.
• In the bowl of a food processor, mix the horseradish and the vinegar. Process with the steel blade until finely chopped; do not purée. Add the beets and remaining olive oil. Pulse until the beets are coarsely chopped, but not puréed. Transfer to a bowl and add the salt, pepper, and lemon juice to taste.
• Adjust the seasoning as needed. Cover and refrigerate for at least a day. Serve as an accompaniment to the Salmon Gefilte Fish Mold.

BEET HORSERADISH SAUCE

Steps:

• Coarsely purée all ingredients in a food processor, scraping down side of bowl as needed, 30 to 40 seconds. Let stand, covered, at room temperature at least 1 hour (for flavors to develop).

HONEY ROASTED POUSSIN ON HORSERADISH BEET PUREE AND SOY BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 550 degrees. Mix the soy sauce, honey, Dijon and black pepper in a small bowl. Liberally rub the poussin inside and out with the rub. Place poussin breast side up, in the oven and cook for about 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown. Simultaneously, toss the beets, garlic and olive oil. Season well with salt and pepper. Make an aluminum papillote (air-tight folded package), enclose the beet mixture and place in the same oven. May have to rotate the chicken for even coloring. When chicken is fully browned, turn the oven down to 300 degrees. Cover with foil to prevent burning. Chicken will take another 15 to 25 minutes. Beets will be done at the same time. Check by opening the papillote and piercing a beet. Should be soft. Chicken is done when the wing can be moved back and forth with great ease. Allow chicken to rest for 10 minutes before serving. In a food processor, add the beet mixture and puree. Add the horseradish and butter and check for seasoning. Keep warm.
• In a saucepan, add the shallots, wine and lemon juice. Bring to a simmer and completely reduce the liquid. Add the cream and soy sauce and bring to a simmer. Strain and transfer mixture to a blender and blend at high speed, adding the butter 1 piece at a time. Season with white pepper and check. Keep warm in a ba
• Plating: Take the breast off of the bone and slice on the bias. Place mound of beet puree in the back center of the plate and surround with chicken slices. Top with leg/thigh and sauce around the mound. Garnish with chive batons.

Add fish stock mixture and vinegar to beet mixture in blender. Blend until smooth, thinning with water to sauce consistency if too thick.

Spread horseradish mixture atop salmon. Bake until salmon is cooked through, about 12 minutes.
