Ultimate Salmon Crepes

Ultimate Salmon Crepes


1. CREPES.

2. Combine flour and salt in a medium sized blow.

3. Beat eggs until blended in a small bowl; stir in milk; beat into flour mixture until smooth.

4. Melt butter and stir into batter.

5. Cover and chill two hours.

6. Heat a 7-inch frying pan; test temperature by sprinkling a few drops of water- when drops bounce about, the temperature is right.

7. Measure batter, 2 tbsp at a time into pan, tilting pan to cover bottom.

8. Bake crepe 1 to 2 minutes or until bottoms browns; turn; bake 1 minute longer.

9. As crepes are baked, stack on a plate with paper towels between; keep warm.

10. Repeat with remaining batter, buttering pan before each baking, to make about 24 crepes.

11. FILLING.

12. Melt 3 tbsp butter in a medium-sized saucepan; blend in the 3 tbsp four.

13. Cook, stirring constantly until bubbly.

14. Stir in salt, pepper, tarragon and cream.

15. Continue cooking and stirring until sauce thickens and boils for 1 minute.

16. Beat egg yolks slightly in a small bowl; stir in about half of the sauce (while it is still hot), then stir back into remaining sauce in pan.

17. Cook 1 minute longer, remove from heat.

18. Blend 3/4 cup of the sauce with the salmon and chives in a medium-sized bowl; stir lemon juice into remaining sauce.

19. Place heaping tbsp of the salmon mixture on each crepe; roll up, jelly roll fashion and place in a single layer in a buttered broilerproof dish, 13X9X2.

20. Pour remaining sauce over crepes; sprinkle Parmesan cheese over all.

21. Bake in a 400 oven for 10 minutes or until bubbly (if you prefer top slightly brown, place in broiler for 2 to 3 minutes).

22. Serve hot.
