| Pernod® |
Pernod® is a versatile, anise-flavored spirit that has been used in cocktails and cuisine foir more than 200 years. Thus premium liqueur is imported from France and its natural flavor is derived from a distilled blend of aromatic herbs - 40% Alc./Vol. Pernod® is recognized as a healthy cooking ingredient that naturally infuses flavor into any dish without compromising taste. A Brief History Cooking With Pernod® Sample Recipe: Appetizer: Jumbo Shrimp Flames with Pernod® on a Bed of Fennel and Tomato Ingredients: 4 Jumbo shrimp 2 tablespoons of Pernod® 2 whole fennel 8 tomatoes 1 garlic bulb 8 leaves of basil 2 tablespoons of olive oil salt and pepper Preperation time: 20 minutes Cooking time: 20 minutes Utensils: Cutting board, knife, pan, non-stick frying pan, spoons, big bowl, scissors, garlic press Preperation: Wash the vegetables and basil leaves thoroughly. Make a crosswise incision on the top of each tomato, then place the tomatoes in a pan of boiling water for one minute. Drain the tomatoes and cool them in a big bowl of cold water to stop them from cooking further. Peel the skin and dispose of the seeds. Cut the flesh of the tomatoes into small cubes. The fennel Cut off the green stems and external leaves, then chunk out the hard part from the central core of the fennel for use. Prepare in small dices. Pour 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick frying pan, cook the fennel for 10 minutes, and then add the tomatoes and crushed garlic. Let it cook for 5 minutes before adding salt and pepper to taste. The shrimp Remove shell and de-vein shrimp. Rinse and dry with paper towel. Warm one tablespoon of olive oil in a frying pan and cook the shrimp until they are a light golden color, for 2 minutes on each side. Add 4 tablespoons of Pernod®, warm the dish, and then flame it. Add salt and pepper to taste. Presentation: Place a jumbo shrimp on a bed of vegetables and decorate with sliced basil leaves. Review: I admit to be a bit apprehensive in trying tasting and cooking with Pernod®. I am not a lover of anything with a licorice taste, but, I have to say that I was presently surprised by this spirit! As stated, it only has a "hint of licorice" which does enhance flavor without overpowering it. I created the above recipe for some past weekend dinner guests and compliments were expressed by all! |
