House Ajillo Smoked Salmon in a Fresh Parmesan Cone
Ingredients
30 grams Chile Guajillo - 1/2 of a Chile
30 grams Ajo fresco - 1 large garlic clove
10 grams lime juice
0.1 envase (500 gr.) sal y pimienta
150 gramos salmon ahumado (smoked)
.03 envase (150 gr.) Tequila
.1 kg heavy whipping cream
Olive oil
1 - Dice the smoked salmon to desired size.
2 - Heat the olive oil, garlic and chile until hot.
3 - Remove from heat, add Tequila, return to heat to cook off the alcohol.
4 - Set aside to cool.
5 - Add the salmon and reheat.
6 - Strain off excess liquid.
7. Whip the cream until soft peaks form.
I believe at this point several methods of serving are possible. The mixture may be processed, and then blended with the whipped cream. Otherwise, spoon the salmon mixture into the parmesan cone and top with the whipped cream.
Put a small amount of caviar on top and serve.
