NEW ENGLAND CREAMED CORN AND CHARRED LOBSTER CHOWDER WITH SUMMER TRUFFLES
Steps:
- In a deep, heavy bottomed stock pot, melt the butter and saute corn, onions, celery, and carrots. Add chicken stock and reduce by 1/2. Add cream and reduce by 1/2. Add thyme sprigs. Set aside.
- Season the lobsters with salt and pepper. Grill until the flesh becomes milky white. Heat lobster stock and blanch lobster claws for five minutes. Set aside. When cool, pick knuckle and claw meat.
- Blanch haricot vert in lobster stock. Remove from stock and place in saute pan. Add cream, truffle oil, and chopped parsley. Hold warm and reserve lobster stock.
- Place creamed corn back on the stove until it simmers. Check seasoning.
- In a saute pan place the picked meat and grill tails. Warm them with the lobster stock.
- Spoon the creamed corn into bowls. Arrange haricots verts around the edge of the bowl. Each bowl receives 2 knuckles, 2 claws, and 1 tail. Shave fresh truffles to garnish each bowl and finish with chopped parsley.
CHARRED CREAMED CORN
Steps:
- Preheat a cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Add the corn and allow the corn to char, stirring just often enough so that the char marks are even and the bottom of the pan does not burn, until evenly charred all over, about 8 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
- Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the shallot and saute until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the smoked paprika and stir to combine. Add the flour and stir until combined evenly, then cook until the flour is cooked and the roux is blond, about 2 minutes. Add half the milk in a slow stream, whisking constantly, until combined. Then add the remaining milk in a slow stream and whisk constantly until smooth. Add the cream cheese and sugar and continue to whisk until smooth and thick, about 2 minutes. Add about 3/4 cup corn and smash into the cream mixture using a wooden spoon or spatula. Stir to combine, then fold in the remaining corn. Turn heat to low and allow to simmer gently until flavors are rich, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat and garnish with parsley if desired.
