Food Legend Chef Andre Soltner's Pike Dumplings Recipe

[@julienbloggista5155]

I watch this from time to time when I feel a little down... Andre and this very nice lady who interviews him never fail to get my spirits back up. Also I made this recipe doing the sauce the way he does a number of times and it is absolutely amazing. Like he said. It’s a good dish.

[@thecook8964]

Nice lady is Gabrielle Hamilton, a chef in her own right

[@joshuamervis]

That man is a MASTER. Watch the presenter's face - she's impressed/psyched at various points in the video. Bravo!

[@areujokingme]

+Joshua Mervis the "presenter" is Gabrielle Hamilton, dude. She's a master in her own right. That's why this season is about her.

[@cozyvamp]

Wow. This is amazing. With everything so "cutting edge" in cuisine these days, you forget how the simple, classic building blocks can go together to make something so delicious and elegant. Just beautiful.

[@Mbadly]

You mean butter with butter and cream with fish on the side. Nothing can go wrong with that much fat. fking awsome

[@briangurka8085]

That’s Lyon cuisine for you!! I’ve always called it French comfort food

[@adamtier3263]

The school is truly blessed to have a culinary legend like him offering a wealth of knowledge and expertise.

[@David-qd3ff]

I adore the reverence that Gabriel has for the chef.

[@markwoldin162]

I had the pleasure to eat at Lutéce twice in my life. Wonderful. I was treated so well by Madame Solter. She took our coats, stood us to a cocktail while we waited. Perfect, warm, friendly atmosphere.

[@jphonevids1065]

when a chef like this says "the best is pike" they really, really know what they are talking about

[@theblobfish9614]

Pike is such a great fish. I used to release them because they are so boney but now i found a way to fillet them that made it one of my favorite fish. They have a really nice buttery almost nutty aroma that really sets it apart.

[@TheNomnomnommer]

a little saffron he said

[@lancebaker3132]

About $18 worth

[@leoselovuori4801]

I literally never used so much saffron

[@thagomizers6329]

This man is the embodiment of what every chef aspires to be.

[@wilfredruffian5002]

The greatest chef of the 20th century, hands down. Lutece was magic on so many levels. I still think fondly of the two sweet ladies who greeted you and incomparable coffee. I now regret that I never ordered the quennelles

[@tpo1342]

Love this video! A true legend. Fyi, the nice lady interviewing Soltner is Gabrielle Hamilton- one of NYC's finest Chefs.

[@internalmartialpath]

I knew about Lutèce. I mean it's French/Roman History, but mostly, it was in Asterix comic books ;)

[@alanvonau278]

French "gefilte fish" 😋. Those _quenelles de brochet_ look really delicious.

[@jennifercarr7351]

I never tire of watching the humble masters of the kitchen. Some of the new chefs are all introspective and intellectual food snobs

[@shawnhampton8503]

What a legend!!! Love this man.

[@trippyvenus6062]

I could watch this twice a day and...I think I will! He's amazing, seems like such a sweet man :)

[@ardentdfender4116]

I've seen this first made on the season episode and it was just just such a warming scene. This though has to be one my all time most favorite dish ive ever seen made ever anywhere as there is so much technique at work in making such a rich flavorful dish as this. As well i have to dedicate the time to try and made this dish and there in learn it as my own. Such a Master Chef Andre is.

[@piobairesicago]

Bravo, M. Soltner. Bravo.

[@civilizeddiva]

Informative and Chef was a joy to watch. Thank you.

[@bovko1]

The amounts of butter and cream in this dish are off the charts. It looks, and probably tastes amazing, though!

[@saifmanman]

but hey, that's french cooking m i rite? lolol

[@kevod09]

wow, I remember I had this dish in Lyon,in some local brasserie , Fish quenelles, not sure if it was pike or perch , and I think the glaze was maybe a Sabayon and then gratinated with the local speciality cheese, but could have been a Veloute sauce nape over it and Gratinated , anyway was just amazing , so simple, fresh and clean flavours, not muddled about with, so memorable .

[@jeromefleury1060]

It was probably quenelles of pike with Nantua sauce, a recipe typical of Lyon gastronomy. Nantua sauce is a bechamel sauce with crayfish butter. Quenelles are baked in the oven with or without cheese. If there was cheese, it was probably Emmental or Conte, The Conté is more expensive but more tasty.

[@DT-lq1ds]

That sauce looks phenomenal

[@theblobfish9614]

Gonna try to recreate this with pike from the river next to my house and crawfish from the same river. Both is easy to catch and appears in abundance and this truly does look like a really great dish. Cant wait until pike season starts

[@deniseesposito7315]

I was lucky enough to get what turned out to be a private lesson from Chef Soltner at The FCI. He showed me omelette making.

[@GosperTYVS]

This lightseed being passing on his knowledge and wisdom , I thank and am grateful for this experience !!! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟💚😋😊🙏🏼

[@CJDubbs]

This looks absolutely amazing

[@WaltzingAustralia]

Well, it's easy to see why I have loved quenelles whenever they have appeared on the menu. So much butter and cream. Wow.

[@beehead5661]

Skip the desert and you've made up for it!

[@p0giboi]

Speechless.......

[@orion8835]

I have no words. ❤

[@Goodwithwood69]

Many a good tune to be played on an old fiddle!

[@TheArtificiallyIntelligent]

"And it's easy to do it."

[@sittttam]

+fwapcom thought the same :D

[@CavemanTravels]

+fwapcom You know what.. I am going to try and make this dish when I have the money.

[@sundarpichai940]

+61third I don't know....it looks like the type of dish you'd spend $200 on for ingredients only to ruin it and make something inedible.

[@animaladam5]

Try 30 bucks...

[@sundarpichai940]

No, definitely not $30. The recipe calls for two lobsters and a pound of pike. He also tossed in about half a container worth of saffron. Usually when someone cooks with saffron, they count out six threads and bloom it in water, but this guy made it rain saffron.

[@cochonrochon]

Wow. Yes, please.

[@markwoldin162]

"It IS a good dish. And easy to do." Ha ha!

[@popcornt111able]

I've never seen a chef use so little butter :O

[@TheMiningSock]

gavin zhu it's the old age I bet

[@fevronija]

An artist in action..

[@rikkiroxx1430]

A Cardiologist would love to have this as a last meal..

[@akos87]

does anyone could find the written recipe somewhere? its not available on the link anymore.

[@sammyswank]

I think this is my favorite video

[@chefjameso]

92 years old and still with us. imagine the food and wine he has eaten ... diet food is a recipe for an early death

[@Imajin]

Omg! That looks so good!

[@karinekhachatrian4847]

receipe site is not working. does anyone have it?

[@JBugz777]

You can tell he can make this blindfolded

[@MJC69800]

I miss lyon and foods, it looks easy but it’s a long process. So tasty and you need so much bread to dip it in the sauce. we serve that dish traditionally in BOUCHON LYONNAIS. Must have if you visit Lyon.

[@briangurka8085]

Lyon is one of my favorite food cities. It really blew me away

[@daswhitney]

Wow.

[@nope24601]

The recipe is no longer on your website. How can I get it?

[@briangurka8085]

Had this dish in lyon (which is a top 5 food city for me in the world, just my opinion of course)

[@octivesoulyo]

Yah .. he dont care how hot it is in there. 👏 and he does it for pleasure 👏👏 thanks for reading

[@swedesam]

I would toss some pasta in that lobster sauce after baking and top with the finished pike dumplings.

[@lcflcf1]

Very good retirement ! Inpiring

[@briangurka8085]

Just attempted this and COMPLETELY failed. Sauce was fantastic though. I used crawfish instead (which I believe is traditional) cooked for at least 2 hours and it was as rich and deep as you’re thinking. The quenelles on the other hand, totally ruined them. Maybe my panade was not made correctly. My final product was too loose and they were not maintaining their shape in the water

[@MalakianM2S]

I knew about Lutèce and I'm not even french, I blame Asterix.

[@bjkarana]

My dad is a lobster, and he had mixed feelings about this recipe.

[@MrYoumitube]

Yum but crab and lobster are a little over my budget...

[@AromaticVendor]

Then don't make it?

[@themusicgym6764]

Divine X for those looking for the recipe link use the below and good luck with the recipe :) www.mindofachef.com/blog/2015/10/07/food-legend-chef-andre-soltners-pike-dumplings-recipe?rq=Pike%20Dumplings

[@trefod]

Very french to take a cheap fish and garnish in an insanely expensive sauce. It's all about the sauces.

[@andrecoltrin]

In the recipe they omitted the Saffron ? any ideas why ?

[@AkshayGovind]

Did he just rip and cut that lobster apart live?

[@T.kazuya]

This old shef has a nice tarent for cooking

[@Benchcreature]

'They don't have blood, so they don't feel anything'........

[@Tempest374]

"I'm not sure its true, but...."

[@xserenityx7565]

Actually, they do have blood, but it's copper based and they have primitive forms of pain receptors, so technically they don't feel pain, at least not like mammals, birds, etc.

[@gillenzfluff8380]

So not pike then.

[@jpallen719]

Young chefs have no idea the level of qaulity and experience these men had, cooking was like the military when they started… no glamour at all. Soultner, Pepin, Franey……don’t make them like this anymore…..

[@danbert6039]

it's really not true. there is a very specific way to kill a lobster.

[@murielgarbin1961]

Tu parles trop papy,passe à l'action

[@frenchie1132]

Everything alive feels pain!

[@respireparlenez]

Lutece. Such a lack of culture…. Only in America!
