Smoked Salmon Deviled Eggs #FishFridayFoodies


It's time for Fish Friday Foodies' August event. I don't remember why I missed July's event. Darn it.

In any case, we are a group of seafood-loving bloggers, rallied by Wendy of A Day in the Life on the Farm, to share fish and seafood recipes on the third Friday of the month. And this month, Wendy is also hosting as we share picnic fare that includes seafood. She wrote, "Share a recipe that is perfect for taking with you on a picnic. Think salads, sandwiches, spreads, dips, potluck side dishes."

Before I get to my recipe. Here's the rest of the #FishFridayFoodies' picnic menu...




Ingredients serves 4
  • 4 hardboiled eggs, peeled and halved*
  • 2 T mayonnaise (here's my homemade version)
  • 1 T diced smoked salmon + more for garnish
  • 1 T capers
  • freshly ground salt, to taste
  • freshly ground pepper, to taste

*I know a lot of people have their favorite method for hardboiling an egg. This is mine: place eggs in a pot and cover them with water. Bring the water to a boil, let the eggs boil for five minutes. Remove from heat and let them cool completely in the cooking water.

Procedure

Place the egg yolks in a small mixing bowl. Add in mayonnaise, salmon, and capers. Blend with a fork until well-combined and fluffy. Season to taste with salt and pepper, as needed.


Spoon the filling back into the cooked egg whites and top with a thin slice of smoked salmon as a garnish.

Hot Chocolate Agasajo-Style {Spice It Up!}

photo by D For my Spice It Up! kiddos this week, I was looking for an exotic drink to serve while we learned about saffron. I found a recipe from food historian Maricel Presilla that mimicked traditional Spanish hot chocolate from the 17th century where it was served at lavish receptions called agasajos . When I teach, I don't always get to shoot photos. Thankfully, D grabbed my camera and snapped a few. Ingredients serves 14-16 1 gallon organic whole milk 3 T dried rosebuds - or 2 t rosewater 2 t saffron threads, lightly crushed 3 T ground cinnamon 3 whole tepin chiles, crushed 2 vanilla beans, split lengthwise 1 C organic granulated sugar 1 lb. bittersweet chocolate Procedure In a large soup pot that can hold a gallon plus, combine milk, dried rosebuds (or rosewater, if you are using that), saffron threads, ground cinnamon, chiles, vanilla beans, and sugar and warm over medium heat till it steams.

Ki Ngombo = Okra

In honor of Mardi Gras, I searched for traditional recipes for gumbo...only to discover that there is no canonical recipe for gumbo. It seems there are as many recipes for gumbo as there are cooks!  The only two constants in a gumbo: variety and okra. The term 'gumbo' likely comes from an African dialect whose word for okra is ki ngombo .  Gumbos can have meat, seafood, just about anything.  In Mark Huntsman's "The History of Gumbo" he refers to written mentions of using muskrat and owl in gumbo recipes.  I embraced the unlimited potential of ingredients and opted for a combination of fish, chicken, pancetta, oysters, mussels, octopus, shrimp, and squid...and lots of okra!
