BAHAMIAN CONCH/SCUNGILLI SALAD



Bahamian Conch/Scungilli Salad image

Bright tangy & spicy with the delicate flavor of diced conch throughout. This refreshing summer salad involves a lot of chopping/dicing but it is so worth it. If conch is not available, canned whelk, scungilli, is acceptable. From Sandy Estabrook's Guide to the Abacos, Bahamas. Cook time is marinating time. Conch is relatively inexpensive here - shrimpers catch them in their nets & few folks know how delicious they are...sssh! I don't want the price to go up!

CRISPY SQUID AND CRACKED CONCH SALAD WITH ORANGE-CHIPOTLE VINAIGRETTE



Crispy Squid and Cracked Conch Salad with Orange-Chipotle Vinaigrette image

Provided by Bobby Flay

Categories     appetizer

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

4 cups fresh orange juice
1/2 small red onion
1 clove garlic
3 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 teaspoons pureed chipotle in adobo
2 teaspoons honey
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
3/4 cup canola oil
Peanut oil
1 1/2 cups rice flour
1 1/2 to 1 3/4 cups cold water
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound squid rings and tentacles
1 pound conch meat, cut into 1-inch pieces
Cornmeal, for dredging
1/2 pound micro greens
1/4 pound watercress
1 head frisee
4 whole cherry peppers, jarred in vinegar, thinly sliced
Parsley leaves

Steps:

  • For the Orange-Chipotle Vinaigrette:
  • Place the orange juice in a medium nonreactive saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Cook until thick and reduced to 3/4 cup. Transfer to a bowl and let cool slightly.
  • Place the reduced orange juice, onion, garlic, vinegar, chipotle puree, honey, salt and pepper in a blender and blend until smooth. With the motor running, slowly add the oil until emulsified.
  • For the Crispy Squid and Conch Salad:
  • Fill a large saucepan halfway with the oil and heat until it reaches 350 degrees F on a deep-fry thermometer. Line a large plate or baking sheet with paper towels, set aside.
  • Whisk together the flour and 1 1/2 cups of the water in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper. The mixture should resemble crepe batter, if it is too thick; add more water a few tablespoons at a time, then season with salt and pepper.
  • Season squid and conch with salt and pepper and working in batches, dip 1/3 of the squid in the rice flour batter and allow the excess to drip off then dredge in the cornmeal. Fry until lightly golden brown and crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on the paper towel-lined plate. Season immediately with salt. Repeat with the conch, dipping into the batter then frying in batches.
  • Place the greens in a bowl and drizzle with about 1/4 cup of the orange-chipotle vinaigrette and season with salt and pepper. Mound the greens on a platter and place some of the sliced cherry peppers on top. Place the squid and conch around the perimeter of the platter, drizzle all with more of the vinaigrette and garnish with parsley leaves.

CONCH SALAD



Conch Salad image

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound fresh or frozen conch or whelk meat (scungilli)
salt
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 ribs tender celery
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
pinch of crushed red pepper
2 to 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Radicchio or lettuce leaves

Steps:

  • 1 If using fresh conch, go to step 2. If the conch are frozen, place them in a bowl with cold water to cover. Put the bowl in the refrigerator at least 3 hours up to overnight, changing the water occasionally. 2 Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil. Add the conch and 1 teaspoon salt. When the water returns to a simmer, cook the conch until tender when pierced with a fork, about 20 minutes. Drain and pat dry. 3 Begin cutting the conch into 1/4-inch slices. When you come to a dark tube filled with a spongy matter, pull or cut it out and discard it, as it can be gritty. There is another tube on the outside of the body that does not need to be removed. Rinse the slices well and pat them dry. 4 In a medium bowl, combine the celery, parsley, garlic, red pepper, 2 tablespoons of the lemon juice, and a pinch of salt. Add the conch and taste for seasoning, adding the remaining lemon juice if needed. 5 Chill up to 1 hour or serve immediately on a bed of radicchio or lettuce leaves. From "1,000 Italian Recipes."
