Subject: Gourmet recipe for linguine w/ tuna, black olives, bacon
In the early 1970's I copied a recipe from a friend's mother's
Gourmet magazine for Linguine that I used to make regularly, but
now have lost. It contains canned tuna, canned clams with juice,
sliced black olives, bacon, lemon and lots of butter over linguine.
It is absolutely my favorite recipe, but I've lost it! Can you help?
I remember the recipe in the magazine was photographed, also.
Thanks.

Hello Arden,
Below are the two recipes that I was able to find like that.

Dear Phaed-
The first recipe (for Linguine Mediterranean) you sent IS IT!
How did you do that so fast?? Do you know what issue of Gourmet
that was in? Thank you, thank you, thank you. I can't wait to
make this again.
Here's a tougher question. I had Salmon with Tangerine Sauce at
the San Ysidro Ranch (California) in the very early 1980's that
I've never forgotten-- perhaps the most delectable meal I've ever
had. (I remember that the chef was a woman, but can't remember
her name.) I would love to make this dish for my sons.
Best regards,
Arden
Hi Arden,
I found the linguine recipe on a message board. The poster did not say which issue of Gourmet it was from.
I have little confidence that any of the recipes below is the salmon recipe you recall. However, these three are the only ones that I could find.
Phaed
Salmon Braised in Honey Tangerine Juice
4- 5 oz. salmon filets
12 oz fresh squeezed honey tangerine juice
2 jalapeno peppers, finely minced
4 shallots, sliced into rings
4 tbsp. butter
Heat a saute pan over high heat. Add 2 tbsps. of butter to melt,
then add shallots and jalapenos. Cook for one minute. Add salmon
filets and honey tangerine juice to pan. Reduce heat to medium
and poach for five minutes or until done. Remove salmon from pan,
add remaining butter and whisk until incorporated. Drizzle sauce
over the filets. Serve on a piperade of peppers and caramelized
onions with sauteed baby spinach and purple Peruvian potatoes.
4 servings
------------------------------
Salmon en Croute with a Tangerine & Ginger Champagne Sauce
Ingredients:
Fillet of Shetland salmon (1.2 kg)
Two Packs Frozen Puff Pastry (Defrosted)
Piece of root ginger grated or fresh Japanese sashimi ginger
Crystallised Ginger
4 Tangerines
Teaspoon Cornflour
Sprig of Thyme
Sea Salt
Freshly ground Pepper
Saffron or Paprika
Generous glass of Champagne, but Cava would do :-)
Take a fillet of fresh salmon, cut into two pieces, then cut about
100 grams from the tail piece and reserve. Salt the fillets with
sea salt and pepper and fresh thyme. Grate some root ginger, or
Japanese pink ginger if you're so lucky, also a little crystalised
ginger and apply the mixture to the flesh side of the fillets. Place
the fillets, flesh side together and wrap in puff pastry sealing the
whole parcel. and bake an a medium oven for about 30 minutes, the
pastry will look "done". 10 minutes before you take the salmon out
of the oven, quickly saute the reserved piece of salmon in olive oil
laced with ginger and tangerine zest, blend this mix and add the rest
of the juice from 3 or 4 tangerines, empty into a small saucpan and
add a teaspoonful of cornflour mixed with cold water to a thinnish
paste. Thicken this sauce, add a bit of saffron or paprika for colour
and add the Champagne just before serving.
--------------------------------------------------
Salmon au Poivre with Tangerine Oil
A Simple twist to this classic dish traditionally done with beef.
The tangerine oil is a perfect foil for the "bite" of the pepper.
Serve on a bed of lentil salad with a sprinkling of bitter greens
like arugula or baby spinach.
Serves 4
Ingredients
Four 7-8 oz. center-cut salmon fillets
1-2 TBS. Oakville Grocery Five Peppercorn Mix (depending on how much bite you like)
1 TBS. fresh chopped dill, mint or green fennel tops (or a mix)
3 TBS. Tangerine Oil
Sea or kosher salt to taste
Technique
Set the peppercorns on a cutting board and crush coarsely with a heavy
bottom saucepan or the flat side of a chef's knife. Set the salmon in
a dish to marinate. Spread peppercorns and hers evenly over the fish.
Pour half the tangerine oil over the fillets and with the flat of your
hand push the herbs and peppercorns firmly onto the salmon. Sprinkle
with a pinch of salt and allow to cure for about an hour.
Grill over a hot fire for about 3 minutes on a side. Set on the plates
and drizzle with the remaining tangerine oil. Serve.

Hi Carolina,
I cannot locate any recipe called "Almond Walnut Raspberry Cake ". I was
also not able to find the "Tea-N-Crumpets" crumpet recipes. However,
"Tea-N-Crumpets" has a website at:
Tea-N-Crumpets
You can order their crumpets online.
There are, of course, crumpet recipes online. Crumpets are an English
tradition. There are three recipes below. However, "buttermilk crumpets" and
"sourdough crumpets" are specialty items, and I was not able to find a
recipe for those.
Phaed
Crumpets
Crumpet rings and a griddle or heavy baking tray are required for
this recipe.
285ml (1/2 pint) Lukewarm Milk
225g (8oz) Flour
10g (1/4 oz) Salt
10g (1/4 oz) Sugar
10g (1/4 oz) Yeast
Mash the yeast and sugar together in a small bowl, beat in 2 tablespoons
of milk.
Leave in a warm place for 15 minutes or until frothy.
Sift the flour and salt into a warmed bowl, make a well in the centre.
Pour in the yeast and remaining milk.
Gradually draw in the flour, mixing until the batter has the consistency
of thin cream, (add more milk if needed).
Cover with a cloth and leave in a warm place for 45 minutes, or until
the batter has doubled in bulk.
Pour around 1 tablespoon of the batter into each ring, the batter should
fill the ring to a depth of cm (1/4 inch).
Cook for around 5 minutes or until bubbles appear the batter is slightly
set and golden brown on the bottom.
Remove the rings, turn over and cook on the other side until golden.
Toast before eating.

Crumpets Recipe 1
Recipe By : The Best Bread Machine Cookbook Ever - Ethnic Breads
Serving Size : 8
Low Fat
Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
2 Tsp Active Dry Yeast
1 1/2 C Bread Flour
2 Tbsp Powdered Milk
1 Tbsp Sugar
1/4 Tsp Salt
1 Tbsp Vegetable Oil
1 Whole Egg
1 C Water
Cookbook by Madge Rosenberg, pg 96
This is a very liquid batter, which is poured into 3 - 4" rings. If you
do not have muffin rings, use low 7 oz cans (the kind tuna comes in) with
both the top and bottom lids removed. This recipe will not work in a
Welbilt or Dak machine.
Add all ingredients for the dough in the order suggested by your bread
machine manual and process on the dough cycle according to the
manufacturer's directions.
At the end of the dough cycle, pour the dough into a pitcher or bowl.
Grease 3 or 4 crumpet rings or low 3" cans with both ends removed, being
sure the top and bottom edges are greased, too.
Grease and heat a griddle or heavy frying pan large enough to hold the
tins. Place the tins on the griddle or in the pan and pour or ladle
1/3 - 1/2 C of dough into each. Cook over med heat until the tops bubble,
about 10 min. Remove the rings, turn the crumpets over, and brown on the
other side. Repeat until you have used all of the dough. Let cool, then
split and toast the crumpets.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Crumpets Recipe 2
Recipe By : The Good Housekeeping Cookery Book
Serving Size : 1
350g bread flour
1 1/2 tsp dried yeast
pinch sugar
300ml tepid water
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
225ml milk
Dissolve the yeast in 50 ml of the water with the pinch of sugar. Sift
the flour into a mixing bowl, and pour the dissolved yeast into a well
in the center, follow with milk. Mix to give a thick batter consistency.
Using a wooden spoon, vigourously beat the batter for a bout 5 minutes
to incorporate air. Cover and leave in a warm place for 1 hour, until
sponge-like in texture. Beat the batter for a further 2 minutes to
incorporate air.
Place a large, preferrably non-stick frying pan on to a high heat and,
using absorbent kitchen paper, rub a little vegetable oil on the surface.
Grease the insides of three crumpet rings or 3 3 1/4 in plain metal pastry
cutters. Place the rings blunt edge down on to the hot surface and leave
for about 2 minutes, or until very hot.
Pour the batter into a large measuring jug. Pour a little batter into
each ring to a depth of 1 cm.
Cook the crumpets for 5-7 minutes until the surface of each appears dry
and is honey-combed with holes.
When the batter has set, carefully remove each metal ring. Flip the
crumpet over and cook the second side for 1 minute only. Cool on a wire
rack. Continue until all batter is used. it is important that the frying
pan and rings are oiled each time, and heated before batter is poured in.
When required, toast the crumpets on both sides and serve hot.

Hello Tyson,
See below. Phaed
Orange Marmalade Muffins
Ingredients :
2 c. all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
2 c. granulated sugar
4 eggs
2 c. (16 oz.) dairy sour cream
1/2 c. orange marmalade
2 1/2 tbsp. butter, melted
1 tbsp. vanilla
Preparation :
Mix flour, baking powder and sugar together in a large mixing
bowl. Combine eggs, sour cream, orange marmalade, butter and
vanilla. Pour egg mixture over flour mixture; mix until smooth.
Spoon batter into well-greased 3-inch muffin cups, filling cups 2/3
full. Bake in a 400 degree oven for 20 minutes or until lightly
brown. Remove from pan. Yield: 2 to 2 1/2 dozen muffins. TESTER'S
NOTE: A fine, cake-like muffin with hints of orange zest. The tops
are absolutely beautiful; a thin, clear glaze develops providing an
extra tender crust. I recommend shiny metal muffin cups because of
the high temperature and amount of sugar; the muffins might brown
too quickly otherwise. Fill the cups slightly more than 2/3 full
for more volume in finished product. I tried the recipe with paper
and foil baking cups, but recommend the well-greased pan technique.
Muffins freeze beautifully.
----------------------------------
Orange Pecan Sour Cream Muffins
Ingredients :
1 1/2 c. presifted flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1/3 c. sugar
1 tbsp. butter
1 tbsp. grated orange rind
2 eggs
2 tbsp. orange marmalade
1 c. sour cream
1/2 c. chopped pecans
Preparation :
In mixing bowl sift together flour, baking powder, soda and salt;
set aside. In another bowl beat together sugar, butter, orange rind
and eggs. Stir in sour cream, marmalade, dry ingredients and
pecans. Spoon batter into greased muffin cups, filling them 2/3
full. Bake in 375 degree preheated oven 25-30 minutes.
