Cockels and octopus piperade Recipe









Save yourself a lot of work and try to find these  cute Spanish tins with ready to eat cockles and pieces of octopus! >>>

Start with one of these elongated sweet Italian paprikas, remove the seeds and dice. Finely slice 1/2 sweet onion. 

Sweat them in 1/2 tbsp olive oil with 1/2 tbsp thyme leaves and 1tsp paprika powder. Add 50 ml chicken stock and 10 ml cream and reduce to 50%.

Taste and season with salt and pepper. Use the stick blender to make a nice sauce.

Then peel a red paprika and use 1/3 to cut into small cubes. Finally slice 1/2 shallot. Mix the raw paprika and shallot with the content (about 60g) of a tin of octopus and a tsp of jalapeño  relish. Season with pepper and salt, then add 1 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tbsp soy sauce, 1/2 tbsp sushi vinegar and 1 tbsp coriander leaves.

Serve this mix in empty mussel shells (8 pp), add cockles from another tin and teaspoons of the sweet paprika sauce. Finish with a small cube of lemon on each shell and dust with sumak.

Crispy braised Iberico pork collar Recipe

Image
It is not cheap, but if you come across it don't hesitate and buy an   Iberico  pork  collar  (aka boneless neck, Cabecero). Mine was 1800 g. It is a well marbled, exquisitely flavorful cut that can be roasted, braised, or sliced into steaks for quick searing. ... While  iberico  is best known for the famous slow-aged hams, the other cuts are succulent, moist & delicious. I made pulled pork from one half. Today I made this from the other half. First I peeled, halved and then sliced 800 g of onions and sweated them in 40 g of butter, turned the heat up a bit and softly fried them for about 40 mins, nicely caramelised and brown. Took out the onions and added some more butter in the pan to sear the meat. Then turned the heat down again and added  sea salt, black pepper, 3 tbsp  Worcestershire  and 6 finely hacked cloves of garlic , 1.2 liter of beef stock , the reserved onions and 2 leaves of laurel . Put the lid on and let it simm...
