Title: Chicken from the Valley of the River Auge (Poulet Valee d'Auge)
Keywords: Mom's, French/chicken, Chicken/fried
Poulet Valee d'Auge
Servings: 4
INGREDIENTS:
3 lb roasting chicken, cut into 4 pieces
1 1/2 tsp salt
freshly ground white pepper
1/2 cup sweet butter
1/3 cup sliced shallots or green onions
1 dash fresh or dried thyme
1/2 cup Calvados
2 cup heavy cream
DIRECTIONS:
Season the chicken parts with salt and pepper. Melt half the butter in a
heavy, enameled cocotte. Brown chicken pieces on all sides. Reduce heat,
cover, cook for 20 to 25 minutes or until a fork comes out easily when the
pieces are pierced. Lift the chicken to a heated platter and keep warm.
Add the shallots and thyme to the cocotte. Increase the heat and cook two or
three minutes. Add the Calvados, scraping the bottom and sides of the
cocotte with a wooden spatula to mix all the solidified juices with the
Calvados. Add the cream and bring to a boil.
Cook three or four minutes to reduce the sauce slightly. Return the chicken
pieces to the sauce. Reduce heat and bring slowly to a boil but do not cook
further. Taste for seasoning. You will proably have to add salt and pepper.
Arrange the chicken on a heated platter and pour the sauce over all.
Serve with buttered artichokes bottoms or sauteed string beans. A light Red
Bordeaux or a Cotes du Rhone such as Chateauneuf-du-Pape will complement
this excellent dish.

Title: Veal Scallops with Cream, Calvados and Apples
Keywords: Mom's, Veal/scallop, French/veal, Calvados
Escalopes de Veau Normande
Servings: 6
INGREDIENTS:
3 sweet apples
2 lemons, juice of
12 veal scallops, 3/8" thick, not pounded
salt
freshly ground pepper
flour
4 Tbsp butter
2 Tbsp vegetable oil
1/3 cup Calvados or applejack
1 1/2 cup heavy cream
DIRECTIONS:
Peel and core the apples, then cut into small cubes. Place in a bowl, add
the lemon juice and mix thoroughly until the apples are well coated.
Sprinkle the veal with salt and pepper, then flour. Shake off any excess.
Heat the butter and oil in a large heavy skillet or paella or roasting pan.
When hot, add the veal a few pieces at a time and saute until lightly
browned on both sides- approximately five minutes on each side. As the veal
is cooked, set aside.
Add the apples, lemon juice and Calvados to the pan. Loosen all the
encrustations in the pan and cook over moderate heat, stirring frequently,
for about 4 minutes. Add the cream and continue cooking until the mixture
has turned to a delicious ivory color. Reduce the heat and cook, stirring
frequently, until the cream has been reduced by about half and the sauce
coats a spoon. Taste for salt. You will probably need about 1/2 teaspoon.
Return the pieces of veal to the pan just long enough to make them piping
hot. Further cooking will toughen the meat. Arrange the veal attractively on
a heated platter and spoon the sauce over all.
This is excellent with Endive Meuniere (endive with beurre noisette mixed
with minced parsley and lemon juice) served separately on a heated platter.

Title: Lobster, Normandy Style (Homard a la Normande)
Keywords: Mom's, Seafood/lobster, French/seafood, Calvados
Servings: 4
INGREDIENTS:
4 fresh lobsters, live
1/2 cup sweet butter
salt
freshly ground white pepper
1/2 cup finely chopped shallots or scallions
12 cup Calvados
3 cup heavy cream
3 Tbsp all purpose flour
1/2 lemon, juice of
dash cayenne pepper
2 Tbsp finely chopped fresh parsley
DIRECTIONS:
Split the lobsters lengthwise with a big knife and break the shells off the
claws with a hammer or a cleaver. Pour the liquid and the tomalley (the
liver) into a small bowl. Discard the stomach (the small sac which is behind
the eyes).
Melt half the butter in a large, heavy saucepan. When the butter turns the
color of a hazelnut, add the lobsters and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Cook over high heat for eight to 10 minutes, turning lobsters often. They
should turn evenly red all over. Remove the lobsters from the saucepan.
Arrange in a large roasting pan and place in a preheated 250-F oven to keep
them warm and to finish cooking.
Add the shallots to the saucepan and sizzle exactly 1 minute without
burning. Add the Calvados, ignite, and when the flame dies out, add the
cream. Work together the remaining butter and the flour. When the sauce
starts boiling, add the flour mixture (beurre manie), bit by bit, whipping
vigorously into the sauce with a wire whisk until smooth. Bring slowly to a
boil. Then mix in the tomalley and lemon juice. Taste for seasoning and add
salt and cayenne pepper, if necessary. You may cook a bit longer to reduce
the sauce if you like it thicker. Stir in the parsley. Pour the sauce over
the lobsters and serve piping hot.
A rice pilaf is usually served with this dish, and we would recommend a
chilled white Traminer wine or a bottle of old cider.

Title: Fillets of Sole with Calvados (Filets de Sole au Calvados)
Keywords: Mom's, Fish/sole, Calvados, Sole
Servings: 4
INGREDIENTS:
2 cup fresh seedless white grapes
1/3 cup Calvados
4 Tbsp sweet butter
8 nice sized fillets of sole, clean and fresh
1/3 cup shallots or scallions, minced
1 tsp salt
freshly ground white pepper
1 cup apple cider or dry white wine
1 stalk parsley
1 Tbsp all purpose flour
1/2 cup heavy cream
DIRECTIONS:
Combine the grapes and the Calvados and let sit about 2 hours.
Take half the butter and coat the bottom of a small roasting pan. Sprinkle
the shallots, half the salt and some pepper over the bottom. Fold the
fillets in two and arrange on top. Sprinkle with the remaining salt and some
pepper. Add the cider or wine and the parsley. Cover with a piece of
aluminum foil. Bring to a boil on top of the stove. Place in a preheated
425-F oven for 5 to 6 minutes. Remove the fillets from the pan and arrange
on a heated serving platter. Keep warm.
Meanwhile, work the remaining butter and the flour together until you have a
homogenous paste to make a beurre manie. Add to the liquid in the pan, a
little bit at a time, beating vigorously with a wire whisk until smooth.
Bring to a boil, reduce heat and cook for 5 to 6 minutes. Add the cream and
bring to a boil again. Add the grapes and Calvados and bring to a boil a
third time. Taste for seasoning. You may need more salt and pepper.
With a bulb baster, remove and discard any liquid that may have been
deposited on the platter, or mop up with paper towels. Coat the filets with
the sauce and serve hot, accompanied with tiny boiled potatoes.
A white Alsace or Macon wine would be good with this dish. However, if you
cooked the fish with cider, you may enjoy it with cider. It is worth noting
that the cider of Normandy is bottled, fermented and aged like wine- and it
sparkles like Champagne. Old cider is probably more highly regarded all
through Normandy than Champagne, and it deserves to be.

Title: Apple Jam with Calvados (Marmelade de Pommes au Calvados)
Keywords: Mom's, Calvados, French/dessert, Desserts/fruit
Servings: 4 to 6
INGREDIENTS:
1/2 cup sweet butter
2 lb McIntosh apples, peeled, cored, and sliced
1 1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup Calvados
1 cup heavy cream
DIRECTIONS:
Melt the butter in a saucepan and add the apples. Cook over very low heat,
mixing often with a wooden spoon, until the apples are cooked and reduced to
a puree. This should take about 40 minutes, and take care to see the apples
do not burn. Stir in one cup of the sugar and cook 5 more minutes. Cool.
When cool, add half of the Calvados and mix carefully. Refrigerate.
Whip the cream. When it begins to hold a shape, gradually add the remaining
sugar, beating constantly. When firm, stir in the remaining Calvados. Spoon
into a pastry bag with a fluted tube and refrigerate.
At serving time, place the apples in a crystal bowl and decorate the top
with the whipped cream.

Keywords: Mom's, Can/preserve, Jams
INGREDIENTS:
1 1/2 qt fully ripe red raspberries

excellent substitute.
