Immediately remove them from the oven and spread out onto a large towel.
Fold the towel over to enclose the nuts and rub them briskly to remove the
skins. Pick the nuts out of the remaining skins and place in the work bowl
of the food processor. Process the nuts while they are still warm, until
they are smooth. Blend in the salt, brandy, and Frangelico. Allow this
mixture to cool to room temperature.
Cut the butter into 16 pieces and add to the processor. Blend until the
butter is thoroughly mixed with the nuts and looks light and fluffy. Blend
in the pepper and chill until needed.

minutes. Puree the contents of the pot until very smooth. Pour the soup
back into the pot and return to a low simmer. Stir in the ham, crabmeat,
and lime juice. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Do not allow the
soup to come back to a boil or you will lose its fine texture.
????This soup is named for a green that grows in the Caribbean. Since
this is unavailable to the US, we have substituted spinach. For a truer
flavor to the original soup, use an equal amount of Swiss chard in place
of the spinach, plus « pound of sorrel. Add these as described in the
recipe for spinach.????

|
Procedure: Thoroughly wash and dry the vegetables. Cut them into small
dice. Heat the oil in a heavy bottom pot or small brazier until smoking. Add
the lobster shells and toss in the hot oil until they turn bright red and
give off a distinctive lobster aroma. After 5 minutes, add the vegetables
and toss another 5 minutes. Add the herbs and tomatoes and cook another 5
minutes. Add the brandy and ignite. After 30 seconds, add the white wine and
fish stock or water until the shells are covered by 1 inch. The addition of
fish stock will give the stock body and depth of flavor. As well, a very
light chicken stock may be used in small quantities to help achieve this.
Whatever you choose, bring the stock to a boil and simmer on low for 1 hour.
Strain the stock through a china cap, pressing hard on all of the shells to
extract as much flavor from them as possible. Then pass the stock through
muslin to remove any gritty particles. Cool in an ice bath.

leave the potatoes out of the recipe without any appreciable alteration of
the flavor. As well, you may dissolve 12 sheets or 2 tbl of gelatin into the
stock at the end of the cooking time. This will help to give the stock body,
but will result in a stock that is not strictly vegetarian.????

Procedure: Thoroughly wash and dry the vegetables. Cut them into small
dice. Crush the garlic cloves. Heat the oil in a heavy bottom pot or small
brazier until smoking. Add the shrimp shells and toss in the hot oil until
they turn pink and give off a distinctive shrimp aroma. After 5 minutes, add
the vegetables and toss another 5 minutes. Add the herbs and tomatoes and
cook another 5 minutes. Add the brandy and ignite. After 30 seconds, add the
white wine and fish stock or water until the shells are covered by 1 inch.
The addition of fish stock will give the stock body and depth of flavor. As
well, a very light chicken stock may be used in small quantities to help
achieve this. Whatever you choose, bring the stock to a boil and simmer on
low for 1 hour. Strain the stock through a china cap, pressing hard on all
of the shells to extract as much flavor from them as possible. Then pass the
stock through muslin to remove any gritty particles. Cool in an ice bath.
????This stock may also be made with crayfish shells or a combination
of both. If you do use crayfish shells, thoroughly wash them in cold water
to rid them of all of the dirt which may be stuck on the underside. If you
are using live crayfish, wash them well before cooking. In large quantities,
be sure to cook the crayfish in batches. If the poaching liquid is clean
after cooking them, you may strain it through muslin and use a portion of
it in the stock.????

Procedure: Rub the peppers and tomatoes with the oil and roast in a 450øF
oven for 15 minutes, until the skins are black and blistered. Remove the
tomatoes first and leave to cool. When the peppers are ready, put them
into a covered pan or a plastic bag and leave to steam. When they are both
cool enough to handle, peel off the blistered skins, and squeeze out the
seeds. Chop the vegetables into large pieces. Set aside for later.
Saute the onion in the olive oil until it is golden brown. Add the
chiles, garlic, and spices and cook until the chiles have softened, and the
mixture is a light brown. Add the roasted peppers and tomatoes and cook 5
minutes. Leave the mixture to cool for 10 minutes, and then puree it all in
a blender until very smooth.
In a clean soup pot, cook the puree until it becomes reddish brown and
becomes very aromatic. Stir in the salt, stock, and tomato paste. Bring to
a boil and simmer 15 minutes. Season to taste with salt. Lastly stir in the
diced red onion, cilantro, lime juice, and jalape¤o peppers. Garnish this
soup with additional lime wedges, fried tortilla strips, hard boiled eggs,
etc.
