Episode 510: Fish Sauce/Lemons

Guest Chef: Michael Psilakis
One of the main sources of flavor in Southeast Asian cooking is fish sauce with lime.  Instead of using limes, Ming pairs fish sauce with lemons to create unique and flavorful dishes.  In the kitchen, Ming calls on fish sauce to lend deep flavor to his “All-In-One” Shrimp Scampi.  Ming draws inspiration from Blue Ginger's   crispy calamari when he prepares a variation on that theme: Crispy Marinated Scallop Coins.  Also on the menu are Cucumber and Smoked Salmon Summer Rolls, a delicious spin on the Southeast Asian favorite most commonly prepared with shrimp.  Guest chef Michael Psilakis visits the studio to make an appetizing “All-In-One” entree: Shellfish Yiouvetsi.
