Food Wars! Also known as Shokugeki no Soma, is about a diverse group of teenage cooks in a cut-throat culinary high school. Think FAME but for chefs.
Recipe by Ryo, third from left
This is Ryo, a poor, orphan who, as a small child, worked as a line cook. By the time he was ten or so he was running the restaurant.
Ryo can roll with the elite.
In the freshman finals, he made something should have won him the competition.
Autumn Pacific Saury Cartoccio -Seafood steamed in a bag, with herb butter.
What's neat about the Food Wars manga is that every dish featured comes with an actual recipe.
But what was in the manga seemed like a dumbed-down version. I wanted to make a dish worthy of Ryo. So I made tilapia, oysters and lobster tail, with lemon and compound butter.
Recipe (for 2 bags)-
-two lobster tails
-four oysters
-two tilapia fillets
-four tsp of breadcrumbs
-one stick of salted butter
-one tsp of parsley
-one tsp of cayenne
-one lemon
-access to parchment paper and kitchen twine.
Start by melting the butter in a pan, it only needs to be melted enough to incorporate the parsley and cayenne. Pour into a freezable mold lined with plastic wrap/parchment paper- or not and just have a spoon handy.
preheat oven to 400*f
Salt and pepper all seafood.
Put everything in the middle of a piece of parchment paper.
If you are using oysters they are very watery. I added a tsp of bread crumbs to each one.
Cut off a chunk of lemon, just enough to do a quick squeeze, then leave the lemon chunk in.
Chop up the butter and put pieces on top of stuff (it’s all going to melt together.)
Tie it up and cook for 20 minutes.
enjoy!
bon appetit
