Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tomatoes, peeled, seeded, and chopped
1/2 cup blanched almonds
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves, peeled
1 teaspoon minced flat-leaf parsley
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon hot red pepper flakes
juice of 1/2 lemon
2 tablespoons sherry vinegar
2 pounds medium-large (25 count) shrimp

Steps:

  • Prepare a charcoal fire or preheat a gas or electric grill. Set the chopped tomatoes to drain in a fine-mesh colander or sieve.
  • In a small sauté pan over medium-low heat, toast the almonds in a tablespoon of the oil, stirring frequently, until the almonds are golden brown- about 5 to 7 minutes-being careful not to burn them. Transfer the almonds to a mortar, food processor, or blender. In the oil remaining in the pan, gently sauté the garlic cloves, stirring frequently, until they are golden-about 15 minutes. Add the garlic to the almonds along with the parsley, black pepper, and hot pepper. Pound in the mortar or process or blend, gradually adding in the drained tomatoes to make a thick sauce. (If you're using a food processor or blender, be careful not to overprocess; the mixture should be a little granular from the almonds.)
  • Transfer the sauce to a bowl and beat in the lemon juice and vinegar. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the remaining oil and beat the rest into the sauce. Set the sauce aside.
  • Toss the shrimp with the reserved 2 tablespoons oil. Cook the shrimp on the hot grill, about a minute to a side, until the shells are papery and the flesh is thoroughly cooked. Pile the shrimp on a platter and serve the sauce in a separate bowl (less messy); or pour the sauce over the hot shrimp and serve (very messy but delicious).

ALMOND DING



Almond Ding image

It was the name of this candy that first won me over, but it's the taste of this easy-to-make treat that continues to make me smile. Both novice and intrepid candy makers will be happy because this simple confection doesn't require a candy thermometer or any fancy equipment and it can be made in minutes. Serve pieces of almond ding as part of a cookie or candy plate, chop it into bits and fold them into just-churned ice cream, or offer some alongside a favorite sorbet. (It goes particularly well with Simple Cherry Sorbet, page 165.) Be sure to use flaky sea salt which will provide dramatic bits of salty sparks when you crunch into the buttery caramelized almonds. This recipe is from Cindy Pawlcyn, chef-owner of Mustard's Grill in the Napa Valley.

Yield makes 3/4 pound (350 g), 20 to 25 pieces

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 cup (125 g) blanched almonds (see Tips)
1/2 cup (100 g) sugar
2 tablespoons (1 ounce/30 g) unsalted or salted butter, cut into pieces
1/4 teaspoon flaky sea salt

Steps:

  • Lightly oil a baking sheet with nonstick spray or line it with a silicone baking mat.
  • In a medium saucepan or skillet, combine the almonds, sugar, and butter. Cook over medium heat, stirring ever so gently as the mixture begins to darken (vigorous stirring encourages crystallization). Continue to cook, stirring gently, until the mixture is deep amber in color (similar to a cup of coffee with a touch of cream). Gently stir in the salt, then pour the mixture out onto the prepared baking sheet. Avoiding spreading out the almonds except to ensure that they're in a single layer. Using a heatproof spatula, push any spreading caramel back toward the almonds. Let cool completely.
  • Once cooled, break into bite-size pieces.
  • The candy pieces will keep in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
  • It's important to use blanched almonds for this recipe. Almond skins make it difficult for the syrup to permeate the nuts and your ding won't be as crunchy.
  • I recommend using a very delicate but flavorful sea salt, such as fleur de sel or Maldon Sea Salt (see Resources, page 270).
